 I'm not really bothered either way to be honest.  I think a better thing
 would be for the BTS to report ftp.d.o bugs on the package pages as well
 and will file a bug for that.

I wonder if such bug could not be assigned to ftp.debian.org, xfce4-systray.

 Can I ask why you wanted it installed or how you got into a situation
 where your apt frontend tried to install it?

I did not do that. I looked at the testing propagation stats and saw
that xfce4-systray was not moving to testing without apparent reason (no
RC bug, no missing binary etc.) so I investigated and filled this report.

Now, I am not very experimented with checking testing propagation, but
certainly if packages that _must not_ move to testing all carried a
RC bug, it would be much easier to spot packages needing hints, and
it is always smarter to allow less experimented people to deal with the
system.

  Hello Debian Xfce Maintainers,

 xfce4-systray doesnt need to be installed anymore. It has been replaced
 by xfce4-panel. xfce4-systray will be removed from unstable, see
