Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

src:julia has been FTBFS for long time. It's dependency llvm-9
has been removed for a while. Upgrading to newer version of
src:julia leads to a million embedded artifacts that requires
heavy patchword. Nobody has stepped forward and take over
this package. The package is not in bad shape. And should not
be kept in debian.

For future contributors who want to bring this back ...
please first investigate how many external files are needed
during the build through download / srccache. Then estimate
the amount of work.


Thank you for using reportbug
