Hello,
Could you please remove the binary package jmol-applet from unstable?
It is one of the four binary packages built from src:jmol.
I am asking this on behalf of Debichem team, we have discussed this removal on
the mailing list [0,1,2].
The main reasons are:
- - upstream is not providing a working applet anymore;
- - and indeed, we have been shipping a jmol-applet with no working applet
inside
for 5 years;
- - the popcon score has been decreasing since then;
- - the java Applet class is deprecated since Java 9;
- - because of the applet part, jmol is going to FTBFS when OpenJDK 17 becomes
the default in Debian (see bug #981989).
jmol-appled has no reverse-dependencies, it was in the Suggests: field of
chemical-structures but has now be removed from this field in unstable, and
this will also be the case in testing in a few days.
Thanks for your help on this,
Best wishes,
- --
Pierre Gruet

The main thing that has to happen is that src:jmol stops building jmol-applet.
Cruft removal of jmol-applet is expected to happen automatically without
human intervention after such a src:jmol has been uploaded to unstable.
Thanks for your email and the explanation, I admit I had not considered
an explicit removal request was not necessary!
Thus I am closing the bug, src:jmol now does not build jmol-applet anymore.

Thanks again,
