Package: amap
Version: 4.8-1.1
Severity: grave

Hi, 

the amap package is uninstallable. When trying to install, postinst
always fails. The reason is, that it calls amap -W, which
automatically tries to update from www.thc.org:


% amap -W
Running Online Update for fingerprints, connecting to www.thc.org/thc-amap
Error: could not resolve host: www.thc.org



BTW, it is inacceptable that the package scripts contact a foreign
machine without user consent. 

regarding to the debian bug page, the package seems to be not
maintained any more. 


Propose to remove the package if not maintained anymore.


regards
Hadmut
