Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

Hi,
  I request the removal of the mudlet package. There are many reasons
why I think this package can no longer be in Debian.

1) It requires several other packages that are not in Debian or would
need to be embedded in the Mudlet package. Some of these are specific
commit points, rather than tags.

2) It has discord-rpc, which is a binary amd64 pre-compiled library.
This library is open source and could be created but upstream no
longer maintains it and the replacement is non-free

3) It includes inside it, the Ubuntu fonts which are non-free.

4) There is no clean way of obtaining the source, except for
clone the git repository and submodules and make a tarball off
that.

While its a fine program, the dependencies and embedded packages
(including their license type) means it is either extremely difficult
or impossible to package in Debian. The current version is 3.7.1 which
is several versions behind upstream (4.6.1)
