It's not really a problem.

   * Depends on Gtk1.2 which is scheduled for removal.

But there's a patch which removes this dependency.

  Plus, the package description says:
  | PilRC is a resource compiler for PDAs running the Pal operation system.
  | It is intended for use with the GCC cross-compiler for PalmOS that is
  | provided in the prc-tools package.
  And prc-tools has been removed.

Hmm. And it doesn't use prc-tools, as you can check.

 Dear Maintainer,

 While reviewing some packages, your package came up as a possible
 candidate for removal from Debian, because:

 * Inactive upstream. (Last upstream tarball was 2004).
 * Depends on Gtk1.2 which is scheduled for removal.
 * Package is out of date.

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

No reaction since two months, reassigning for removal.

Plus, the package description says:

And prc-tools has been removed.

Cheers,

Dear Maintainer,

While reviewing some packages, your package came up as a possible
candidate for removal from Debian, because:

* Inactive upstream. (Last upstream tarball was 2004).
* Depends on Gtk1.2 which is scheduled for removal.
* Package is out of date.

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

If you disagree and want to continue to maintain this package, please
just close this bug and do an upload also fixing the other issues.

If you agree that it should be removed, send the following commands to
cont...@bugs.debian.org (replace nn with this bug's number):

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