 Dear Maintainer,

 While reviewing some packages, your package came up as a package that
 should maybe be orphaned by its maintainer, because:

 * Out of date
 * Buggy (1 RC bug)

Which is gcc4.3-autobuilder specific, apparently, and only showed up
in the last week.

 * Last maintainer upload 2004 (NMU in 2005).
 * Low popcon. (~16 installed).

I know of more users than that personally :-) but they're downstream
(ubuntu, debathena, etc.)

 If you think that it should be removed from Debian instead of being
 orphaned, please reply to this bug and tell so.

 If you disagree and want to continue to maintain this package, please
 close this bug and do an upload also fixing the other issues.
 Also, you can study the possibility of taking co-maintainers.

I'll just close this as part of the next upload (that closes the
gcc4.3 problem.)

If you agree that it should be orphaned, send the following commands
to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (replace nn with this bug's number):

severity nn normal
reassign nn wnpp
retitle nn O: packagename -- short package description
thanks

If you think it should be removed, send the following commands instead:

severity nn normal
reassign nn ftp.debian.org
retitle nn RM: packagename -- RoM; reasons
thanks
