[Bug 1760263] [NEW] RM: will become EOL upstream in December, not in testing

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Simon Quigley (tsimonq2) has assigned this bug to you for botan1.10 in Debian:

Please remove botan1.10 and all packages marked as affected on this bug.
>From the Debian bug (connected to this bug):

"Upstream has announced that security support for botan1.10 will end
latest December 2018. Given the small number of rdepends it might be
wise to get botan1.10 out of testing."

Also:

"1. monotone is dead (last upstream release 2011), we shouldn’t keep
zombies in Debian

2. ovito is leaf package and ranked very low in popcon"

It would be unwise to ship this in the LTS.
