pure-ftpd: Server -- if you use it, you must know how to build it. tsch: Well, it's like back to the future, only in reverse, right?

Just because a software is old it doesn't mean that it doesn't work or isn't used anymore. Well, I must admit that I don't know tcsh, but that's only one of them. Like I said, I had no problem with really unimportant or unnecessary packages or with packages which don't run anymore without being patched. But packages which still run like eboard and are just a bit older don't need to be actively maintained. So I don't know the problem with keeping them in [extra] as orphans. Heiko
