Hi, The package crypt++el was removed from the archive without talking to the maintainer. He was just in the process of preparing fixes and making a new update. The bugreport against ftp.debian.org arrived Mon, 14 Jan 2008 11:00:34 +0100 and the package was removed only some hours later Mon, 14 Jan 2008 21:51:54 +0000.
I was the former maintainer of this package and use it extensively. So when came aware of the removal I contacted the maintainer and he told me all about it and that he just had not the energy to pursue the matter. I am really astonished the ftpmaster removes a package on such a short notice and without talking to the maintainer. Please reinstall the falsely removed package. We try to get the outstanding issues resolved as soon as possible. Christoph PS: I filed an ITP to get it back into Debian too (481082). But it should be really just reinstalled. -- ============================================================================ Christoph Martin, Leiter der EDV der Verwaltung, Uni-Mainz, Germany Internet-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Telefon: +49-6131-3926337 Fax: +49-6131-3922856
