ftp.debian.org, and they sometimes sit for a long time (although they're
sometimes disposed of quickly). #225537 is a classic example of one

Opinions? Agreement? Disagreement? Have I misunderstood the function of
oldlibs? ;-)

libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 -- old gcc-2.95 version of libstdc++
libgnutls5 -- libgnutls7 and libgnutls10
OK, so I looked at Lintian and some of the packages with
ancient-standards-version have *really* ancient standards versions --
2.something.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, many of these are generally pretty poorly maintained
packages. (Some are in pretty good shape, though.) You'll also note that

Hmm, I don't know why this bug has been overlooked or not dealt with,
but quite a few packages were removed just a few days ago.

Hi,
I just noticed (due to being hinted in irc) that /org on klecker is
out-of-space. As a first step weasel removed some "old" (i.e.
