Bug#165500: Removal of Package g5

[Alexander Winston]

I hereby suggest that the package named "g5" be removed from the Debian
archive. I previously considered adopting this orphaned package and
bringing it back from the dead, but now I wish to just let it rest in
peace. :)

The package depends on libgtk1.2 and the upstream sources have
disappeared. Many better alternatives exist, the most notable being
gnome-games, which contains Gnect, a four-in-a-row game a lot like G5.
It is built with GNOME 2, has an improved user interface with graphics,
user documentation, and is actively maintained.

The applicable bug report for g5 is at .

Thank you!
