Package: unrtf
Version: 0.18.1-2
Severity: normal
It would be nice if unrtf could accept the input files on
STDIN so that it can be used in pipes.
Note: there appears to be NO upstream for unrtf.
The website referenced in the man page
http://www.geocities.com/tuorfa
just contains a page detailing the author's concerns with the GPL.
"most of my programs were covered by the GPL, so I am hereby ending those
projects[...] If you have a copy of one of my GPL-afflicted programs and
have a feature request or a bug report or patch, please don't contact me
about it. Sorry for the inconvenience."
This affects #140824 #145027

This is supported by 0.21.2-2, now in experimental. The version currently
in testing (19.3-1.1+b1) doesn't support this.

It seems to have been adopted by GNU in the intervening decade:
