Bug#707334: O: sampleicc

[Rene Engelhard]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I intend to orphan the sampleicc package.

$ rmadison -S -s unstable sampleicc
libicc-utils-dev | 1.6.4-1+b1 | sid | amd64, armel, armhf, i386, ia64, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, s390x, sparc
libicc-utils-dev | 1.6.4-1+b2 | sid | hurd-i386
libicc-utils2 | 1.6.4-1+b1 | sid | amd64, armel, armhf, i386, ia64, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, s390x, sparc
libicc-utils2 | 1.6.4-1+b2 | sid | hurd-i386
libsampleicc-dev | 1.6.4-1+b1 | sid | amd64, armel, armhf, i386, ia64, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, s390x, sparc
libsampleicc-dev | 1.6.4-1+b2 | sid | hurd-i386
libsampleicc2 | 1.6.4-1+b1 | sid | amd64, armel, armhf, i386, ia64, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, s390x, sparc
libsampleicc2 | 1.6.4-1+b2 | sid | hurd-i386
sampleicc | 1.6.4-1 | sid | source
sampleicc-tools | 1.6.4-1+b1 | sid | amd64, armel, armhf, i386, ia64, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, s390x, sparc
sampleicc-tools | 1.6.4-1+b2 | sid | hurd-i386

Was packaged only because OpenOffice.org started to need it; LibreOffice
switched to liblcms2 so this one is completely out of my
interest now.

If noone wants to adopt it it probably should just be removed...
It had no upload besides the initial upload in 2011 and especially
since it doesn't have any r-deps anymore (and never had, OOo/LO just
build-depended on it)

Regards,

Rene

Indeed. unstable's Sources still has some old libreoffice 3.5 packages
which build-depend on it, presumably due to out-of-date builds on some
architectures, but as you say the 4.0 packages don't. If we keep it
then we'll have to deal with it in the tiff transition
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=681900), and there
doesn't really seem much point in bothering.

Reassigning to ftp.d.o for removal.
