[Bug 1783228] [NEW] RM libxflaim: no maintainer, no uploads, no updates for recent debhelper or gcc

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Steve Langasek (vorlon):

This package fails to rebuild, as necessary for a library transition,
because it uses obsolete syntax in debian/control.  The specific build
failure is easy, to fix, but:

 - this package was originally uploaded to Ubuntu in 2006 and has had no new upstream release since
 - the uploader is no longer an Ubuntu developer
 - the last substantive upload was 10 years ago to *disable* a security feature of the compiler due to incompatibility, and there has been no attempt since then to update it
 - there does not appear to be any new upstream release available anywhere for this software
 - it is a library with no reverse-dependencies in the Ubuntu archive.

I think it needs to be removed, and plan to do so promptly.  If someone
is interested in maintaining this software, it can be reuploaded to
Ubuntu.
