 This is not strictly orphaning, more infanticide.  I'm not sure
 conventional orphaning fits, since the source package is not being
 orphaned.
 
 The PostgreSQL python interface (python-pygresql) has been separated
 upstream into its own source tree.  Since it no longer needs to be
 built with postgresql itself, and since I do not use python, the
 python binaries will no longer be built when postgresql 7.4 is
 released (in a few weeks).

Go for it.

The existing python-pygresql packages will cease to be built when the
first postgresql 7.4 packages go into unstable.  I will then ask the ftp
maintainers to remove them, so as to clear the way for your packages.

Just for curiosity: shouldn't the old python-pygresql be automatically
removed from the archive once it is no more builded?

It doesn't seem to work that way.

IIRC it does. At least, it used to work for one of my packages
last year.

It does, but only semi-automatically.
