Hi,
As promised, here is a first list of removal candidates. Please go through it to make sure we don't remove a package that, for some reason, should remain in extra. Some of the reason are actually questions (cvsup, gnome-system-tools, ksymoops, makedev, nail, rxvt_ja, rxvt) so it would be nice if someone can answer them. As said before, some of these packages are depends of community packages. Please just dicuss them for now. I would prefer to do the actual removal myself. I will do so in a few days after the discussion.
===================================== Package Reason to remove it. ===================================== libggz unused lib

We'll keep it then.
mt-st low usage: it's for Linux SCSI tape driver So we don't support tapestreamers with any package by default?
Paul has adopted it. So I removed it from the list. What about the other tape drive tool (mtx)? Do we keep it also?
pdns-ldap unused lib pdns-mysql unused lib pdns-pgsql unused lib These are backends for powerdns/pdns. With the libmysql/libldap/libpostgresql splitup I think they can be merged with the normal pdns/powerdns package
I guess that means we also keep them, at least as long as there not merged with powerdns/pdns. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
