[Bug 295007] [NEW] REMOVAL REQUEST: mas-*

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Bryan Quigley (bryanquigley):

Remove from jaunty
Remove binaries and source

The packages included are (and rdepends):
mas-server (none)
mas-utils (none)
libmas-dev (none)
libmas0c2 (mas-server, mas-utils, libmas-dev)

Rationale:
These packages have stagnated for many years now:
Debian doesn't have them in any development or testing branches:
http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=mas-server&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all

Source Website:
http://www.mediaapplicationserver.net/indwexframes.html, not updated in many many years

Popcon:
#rank name                               inst  vote   old recent no-files (maintainer)
25881 mas-server                       138     3   128     7     0 (David Schleef)                 

Also I believe the (finished) functionality has been completely replaced
by pulseaudio.

So in summary, it is unmaintained, no longer going to be looked at in
Debian, and has been superseded.  I'm going to wait a few days before
subscribing the archive team, for any objections.

** Affects: mas (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
