I was getting ready to file a removal request for libmetakit2.4.9.3 when
I noticed that you never actually marked it as orphaned (an ITA expiry
script did so). Do you think it's time to remove it?
Yes, most propably. Sorry, was on vacations the last two weeks, just
got back and luk pinged me about this bugreport:

luk Rhonda: do you mind answering #183373?
Rhonda Was on vacations since 4th, just returned. :)
Rhonda So I haven't seen that mail yet. And I'm pretty happy with it
getting removed, I don't think anyone is going to adopt it, no
matter how many people raised interest over time ...
Rhonda I tried to package the latest upstream version for a while, but
the upstream maintainer isn't really good with libtool (breaks
API/ABI with each release) and dropped --release support which
made me able to package it properly in the first place.
Rhonda Will answer, yes.
#v-
Furthermore to not being able to make any use of the later upstream
releases my reasons for maintaining it went away long ago, and I don't
see any other reverse dependencies, just a suggest as database backend
from one single package which can happily use any of the other supported
backends.
So long,
Rhonda
