Hi all,

I seem to be the only person to have done an upload of prevu in the
past few years. That has only been to make it aware of new release
names. I've never really used it myself. It was never updated in
oneiric to know about precise and no one seems to have cared enough to
file a bug about it. I was contemplating making it use
python-distro-info so new release names don't have to be manually
added, but it might just be better to remove it from precise. No one
is subscribed to its bug reports in Ubuntu.

Is anyone still making use of prevu? Is there any use case that
backportpackage from ubuntu-dev-tools doesn't cover?

Unless anyone speaks up, I'll ask the archive-admins to remove it from precise.

Thanks,
