Bug#651688: [pkg-ggz-maintainers] Bug#651688: Bug#651688: Should ggz-server be orphaned or removed from Debian?

He replied to my email fairly promptly so I'm sure he'll do so with
this as well.

.  I was just the
 sponsor/helper here, so I don't know the status of upstream etc. very
 well.  At one point, these libraries had a reverse dependency into
 GNOME, but I can't find it right now, so maybe it's gone.  Note that
 ggz-client-libs has a very high popcon usage because of this.

The GNOME reverse dependency appears to have been dropped around this
commit: 
http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-games/commit/configure.in?id=afd2c399e70fde7d3f5853cefd137299458447d3
which is around 2.29.1 or so.

[x] done :-)
Ansgar, the list of GGZ 0.0.14 packages to be removed looks complete to me, so 
please go ahead. Please note that there's also ggz-base-libs of version 0.99.x 
in experimental which may need removal.

I've imported all binNMUs, patches and pending bug reports into the pkg-ggz 
SVN just in case work will continue.
 
 The GNOME reverse dependency appears to have been dropped around this
 commit:
 http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-games/commit/configure.in?id=afd2c399e70
 fde7d3f5853cefd137299458447d3 which is around 2.29.1 or so.

Indeed, I'm not aware of any project which has ever had a hard dependency. The 
configuration macros we provided were cautiously written to encourage optional 
dependencies. Therefore, there should be no risk in removing the GGZ packages.

Josef
