Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

I'm the maintainer of the node-unicode-tr51 package (within the
JavaScript team), and :

- a FTBFS bug (#953793) has been filled against the package because it
doesn't build with unicode 13.0.0 ;

- so I checked upstream, where the front page says it is deprecated in
favor of another package (which I also maintain and just updated: node-
unicode-data, in the NEW queue because it provides the new binary node-
unicode-13.0.0) ; hence node-unicode-tr51 has been abandoned upstream ;

- I had a look with dak and saw its removal won't break anything :

jpuydt@phaeris:~$ ssh mirror.ftp-master.debian.org "dak rm -Rn node-
unicode-tr51"
Will remove the following packages from unstable:

node-unicode-tr51 | 9.1.0+ds-2 | source, all

Maintainer: Debian Javascript Maintainers <
pkg-javascript-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org>

------------------- Reason -------------------

----------------------------------------------

Checking reverse dependencies...
No dependency problem found.


So I'm asking for its removal from Debian unstable.

Cheers,

J.Puydt
