Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

Please remove wxwidgets2.8 from unstable.  It's unmaintained upstream
(last upstream release was 2.8.12 on 2011-03-28 - over 4 years ago), and
a newer upstream release branch is packaged as wxwidgets3.0.

It was already removed from testing (before the jessie freeze).  There
are a few lingering packages in unstable depending on it, but all have
had bugs filed regarding updating to use wxwidgets3.0 for around a year
now (the last filed was #751241 for amule on 2014-06-11):

| usbprog: libwxgtk2.8-dev

| Dependency problem found.

A quick analysis - these packages have actually been migrated away from
wxwidgets2.8, but the newer package has failed to build on sparc or
hurd-i386:

    codelite plplot usbprog gpac matplotlib

These genuinely still depend on wxwidgets2.8:

    amule codeblocks gspiceui sitplus tribler

------------------- Reason -------------------
ROM; Unmaintained upstream; newer release packaged
----------------------------------------------

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 and will not propagate to any mirrors until the next
dinstall 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 were closed
correctly or should have been re-assigned 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].
