Subject: RM: ojs -- ROM; Request of upstream authors; no longer (practically)
maintainable in Debian
Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
Following a talk with Florian Grandel, from the upstream authors
(specifically, who made the patches that allowed OJS to be used with
the basic upstream ADODB instead of the modified version they ship as
part of their system), he told me PKP has added many more third-party
libraries which are not packaged in Debian, and that the divergences
in the libraries currently shipped are too large... And given a very
low popcon result, we decided the best way out is to drop OJS from
Debian.

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:
ojs | 2.2.4+dfsg2-1 | source, all
------------------- Reason -------------------
ROM; Request of upstream authors; no longer (practically) maintainable in Debian
----------------------------------------------
Note that the package(s) have simply been removed from the tag
database and may (or may not) still be in the pool; this is not a bug.
The package(s) will be physically removed automatically when no suite
references them (and in the case of source, when no binary references
it). Please also remember that the changes have been done on the
master archive (ftp-master.debian.org) and will not propagate to any
mirrors (ftp.debian.org included) until the next cron.daily run at the
earliest.
Packages are usually not removed from testing by hand. Testing tracks
unstable and will automatically remove packages which were removed
from unstable when removing them from testing causes no dependency
problems. The release team can force a removal from testing if it is
really needed, please contact them if this should be the case.
We try to close Bugs which have been reported against this package
automatically. But please check all old bugs, if they where closed
correctly or should have been re-assign to another package.
Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed. If you
have further comments please address them to [email protected].

This message was generated automatically; if you believe that there is
a problem with it please contact the archive administrators by mailing
