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.
gnome-system-tools (in unstable) replace with new package from AUR and move to Extra? +1 for updating this. I can take it if noone else wants.
libesmtp unused lib required by esmtp and balsa - I'll take them all in community
libgdamm unused lib move to community, I'll adopt it (required by glom)
libpixman unused lib just curious - is pixman from Testing the same but updated?
other packages that are required by community packages: glitz - by gnustep-back and xgl metakit - by gourmet shapelib - by gpsmanshp and gen2shp -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)
