[Bug 830427] [NEW] Please remove gwget2 source and binaries

[Micah Gersten]

Public bug reported:

>From Debian bug:
RM: gwget2 -- ROM; uninstallable, unmaintained, dead upstream
gwget2 has been unbuildable for over a year [1] and its epiphany extension
stopped working with epiphany 2.32 and beyond [2].
The package is pretty much unmaintained, upstream looks pretty dead too
and with the downloadbar in epiphany 3.x it is not really that useful
anymore.
