The thing is, it appears it was updated later but incorrectly.  I don't know the history for the weboob package, maybe it was malware so it was removed from the filesystem?

From within the git tree, you can: git log -- network/weboob

I see:

commit 8146c4a1ff57855a9c459f255e4eda67ee6b64d2

    network/weboob: Removed (requested by maintainer).

It wasn't removed from the 14.1 branch, but it was from 14.2. Maybe
that was a mistake, it should have been removed from the 14.1 branch
too?

...but, do we really have to care about 14.1 perpetually from now
until the end of time? Pat V has EOLed 14.1, see the ChangeLog:

http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/slackware/slackware-14.1/ChangeLog.txt

So, we keep the old branches around for historical reference, but
if something minor is wrong, do we really have to spend time/effort
fixing it? We don't e.g. update download URLs in the 14.1 .info files.
