Hi Clint,

you wrote in the WNPP bug:

  I intend to orphan the mktemp package.
  
  The package description is:
   This package provides a utility designed to make temporary
   file handling in shell scripts simple and secure.
  
  It should be replaced entirely by the mktemp in coreutils.

Wouldn't a request for removal be more suitable in that case? (provided that
the corutils maintainers start to distribute mktemp in their binary packages).

Have a nice day,

Im about to package eFTE[1], which I think we can say as a replacement of FTE.
What do you think about removing FTE ?
