Hi, I propose that we remove the optional package "extra_docs-20070208" from sage completely. It's static copies of documentation from 8 years ago relevant to sage. It's a package I made. Clearly I'm not updating it.
I also think we should remove java3d-20070901 and knoboo-20080411. In fact, I would be OK with removing all of the following as official optional Sage packages that appear when doing "sage -optional" on a fresh sage-6.5 install: salvus@compute:/usr/local/sage/sage-6.5$ ./sage -optional|grep not PyQt_x11-4.9.1.p0 ....................... not installed TOPCOM-0.17.4 ........................... not installed autotools-20121217 ...................... not installed beautifulsoup-3.2.1 ..................... not installed # in pypi extra_docs-20070208 ..................... not installed gcc-4.6.4 ............................... not installed # doesn't standard sage have a newer gcc? ginv-1.9-20080723 ....................... not installed # dated java3d-20070901 ......................... not installed # surely broken/useless knoboo-20080411 ......................... not installed # ancient libogg-1.1.4 ............................ not installed libtheora-1.1.1 ......................... not installed mpi4py-1.2.2 ............................ not installed openmpi-1.4.3 ........................... not installed openssl-1.0.1c.p0 ....................... not installed sip-4.13.2.p0 ........................... not installed trac-0.11.5.p0 .......................... not installed -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
