Dear maintainer,

I suggest removing mate-optimus from Debian for the following reasons:
 * It accumulated one RC-bug:

     Last modified: 3 years

 * It is not part of bookworm or trixie and is not a key package.

This bug serves as a pre-removal warning. After one month, the bug will be
reassigned to ftp.debian.org to actually request removal of the package.

In case the package should be kept in unstable, please evaluate each of the
RC-bugs listed above.

   release, but this package should stay part of unstable, please add a
   usertag:

       user helm...@debian.org
       usertags NNN + sidremove-ignore

 * If the bug no longer applies, please close it. If it is closed, check
   whether the fixed version is correct and adjust if necessary.

 * Is the bug really release-critical? If not, please downgrade.



Once all of the mentioned RC bugs have been acted upon in one way or another,
please close this bug.

In case the package should be removed from unstable, you may reassign this
bug report:

    Control: severity -1 normal
    Control: retitle -1 RM: mate-optimus -- RoM; rc-buggy
    Control: reassign -1 ftp.debian.org

Alternatively, you may wait a month and have it reassigned.

In case you disagree with the above, please downgrade this bug below RC
severity. Doing so will also prevent automatic reassignment.

Kind regards

ACK. Thanks, Helmut!
