It's a package that we've carried since forever and which has a userbase. That's not really an argument. We've also had uae and e-uae (the Amiga emulators) for ages and they had a user base. Yet, I filed removal bugs because upstream was no longer existent and they have been replaced by more modern forks like fs-uae. There were simply too many bugs that would never get addressed.

As I explained before, the problem with such packages is that they can introduce unnecessary (RC) bugs which may delay the release during the freeze. I am aware of the fact that the release team has addressed the issue by removing packages from testing now which have had RC bugs longer than a certain time frame, but I think we should avoid such situations in the first place. And the fact that a very limited group of users is using XEmacs doesn't justify the hassle. If someone is so keen to actually prefer XEmacs over emacs, they can just download and build the package from source. At the end of the day if you're not interested in a leaf package just ignore it, work on something you do care about instead. No, I do care about the whole of Debian and not just about my particular packages and honestly, it bothers me to no end when I see packages which have dozens or hundreds of bugs unanswered because no one is stepping in to fix that. And I think Paul feels the same. I rather prefer to have a package removed than it being full of bugs, no matter whether it's a leaf package or not.

Bug#729736: ITP: inputplug -- XInput event monitor
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Andrew Shadura andre...@debian.org * Package name: inputplug Version : 0.0~hg Upstream Author : Andrew Shadura andre...@debian.org * URL : https://bitbucket.org/andrew_shadoura/inputplug/ * License : MIT/X11 Programming Lang: C Description : XInput event monitor inputplug is a daemon which connects to a running X server and monitors its XInput hierarchy change events. Such events arrive when a device being attached or removed, enabled or disabled etc. When a hierarchy change happens, inputplug parses the event notification structure, and calls some command. inputplug may be useful when input devices are being reconnected frequently and need frequent manual reconfiguration. For example, some laptops detach their keyboards when going to memory sleep, so if some keys need remapping, or a custom keyboard layout is used, running xkbcomp/xmodmap is required after returning from sleep. Same applies to some touchpads if non-standard configuration is used. P.S. The above isn't quite what is going to be in the long package description; however, as I suppose I'm not the only person to hit this sort of issues, this ITP may serve as some sort of notification that the solution exists :) P.P.S.

There are other users who do use graphical mode, indeed I was reminded at the mini-Debconf today that the main reason XEmacs got forked was that GNU Emacs was too resistant to implementing a GUI. I guess some people use menus or whatever but I expect you'll find it's mostly just to make it look pretty and smoother interaction with other programs. Well, as I said, if you're really using emacs for what it's renown for, you don't care about the X11 user interface and the looks because you use non-windowed mode anyway. There's no cause and effect there, and if the GUI really was inessential for editors we ought to disable it for them in Debian since it's at best a waste of time to compile it and a potential source of bugs. If someone is so keen to actually prefer XEmacs over emacs, they can just download and build the package from source. This does apply to most of the software in Debian of course... Debian has always had a kitchen sink approach to including things, we do have quite a few architectures as well for example and I'm not sure that our position as the leading platform for languages such as brainfuck is considered critical by many.

The package description is: Cbc (Coin-or branch and cut) is an open-source mixed integer programming solver written in C++. It is primarily meant to be used as a callable library, but a basic, stand-alone executable version is also available. . Mixed integer programming (MIP) is a generalization of linear programming (LP) and allows to find the minimum solution of objective functions depending linearly on variables, which are linearly constrained and additionally may have integrality constraints. . Cbc is part of the larger COIN-OR initiative (Computational Infrastructure for Operations Research) and depends on the COIN-OR Clp linear programming solver for solving subproblems. . Cbc works well as independent solver (reading files in the MPS format) and as a solver backend for AMPL. . This package contains the binaries and libraries. ---End Message--- ---BeginMessage--- Source: coinor-cbc Source-Version: 2.8.5-1 We believe that the bug you reported is fixed in the latest version of coinor-cbc, which is due to be installed in the Debian FTP archive.

Bug#729660: ITP: xemacs21 -- highly customizable text editor
❦ 16 novembre 2013 13:30 CET, John Paul Adrian Glaubitz glaub...@physik.fu-berlin.de : I have yet to see someone who does. I'm a long-time emacs user and so are many of other developers I work together with and everyone I know of who uses emacs as their primary editor doesn't use X11 support, you just don't need it in most cases. emacs is powerful through it's keyboard shortcuts and you are much more efficient and faster when using them as opposed to navigating through the menus with your mouse. I am also a long time Emacs user and I mostly use the X11 support. No menu, no mouse. Without it, Gnus wouldn't be able to display a nice picture in place of smileys :) -- printk(KERN_WARNING %s: Short circuit detected on the lobe\n, dev-name); 2.4.0-test2 /usr/src/linux/drivers/net/tokenring/lanstreamer.c signature.asc Description: PGP signature
Bug#637771: RFP: wxmupen64plus -- Mupen64Plus 2.0 GUI frontend written using wxWidgets
The upstream project is already dead. Here a quote from the maintainer {Saturday, October 26, 2013} [21:14:27] Auria I don't really have time/interest anymore to properly develop wxMupen64Plus, unfortunately. It wasn't working since a while with the mupen64plus version in debian and the author started to to make it incompatible with mupen64plus 2.0 by purpose in the past by making it mupen64plus 1.99.5 exclusive. It is most likely better to just close this bug and move on to m64py [1]. I've already saw m64py packages on git.debian.org (server seems to be down right now) and it only needs pysdl2 packaged in Debian.

Please try to make reasonable top-posting-bashings if necessary, not in every case to people who are known to behave correctly. Technically, there are no outstanding RC bugs, all bugs were closed when it was removed. Nice trick to wait for removal of a package to let a bucket of bugs vanish and start from scratch. This is wasting the time of previous bug reporters. There was a lot of time to fix those long standing bugs if there would have been any interest in the package and I perfectly share Paul's point. Furthermore, is it not usual practice for ftp master to comment on actual packages, rather than theoretical ones? an ITP is intent to package. There's no package to critique yet! Ftpmaster had just work to do on the removal (probably not much work) and if I would be ftpmaster and see an ITP of a just removed package I would be seriously wondering if people want to play some not so funny game with me.

Reasonable non-free license has exception for copying for typical use cases such as printing and embedding into pdf files containing documents as needed basis etc. I think you should contact the upstream and obtain a license which allows at least distribution.
