Hello Release Team,
This is a request to RM the php-horde-* package set, from Debian 12
bookworm specifically.
Horde 5.x is currently incompatible with PHP8, making the package
mostly unusable, with many random errors.
See grave bugs at:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?dist=stable;maint=team%2Bdebian-horde-team%40tracker.debian.org
No complete patch set for these issues is currently available.
New working installs are currently not possible, notably preventing
testing security fixes.
Note: php-horde-* is already dropped from trixie.
Note: The maintainers wish to maintain it in unstable.
See also the recap at:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts/2025/03/msg00012.html
and the maintainer's OK at:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts/2025/03/msg00017.html
There are many packages,
`grep 'Package: php-horde'
deb.debian.org_debian_dists_bookworm_main_source_Sources`
gives me:

Our tooling assumes that a removal bug relates to a single source
package. Someone will therefore need to ensure that bugs exist for all
of the packages that are requested to be removed, and that they are
tagged and titled appropriately (in the same way that an unstable
removal report would be, not the incomplete format produced by
reportbug, which we really should get fixed).
ftp-master will also hate you unless we hack around the tooling, as dak
will make them say "y<enter>" twice for each removal, interactively,
during a point release :-p
I'm tagging this moreinfo for now, as it's not currently actionable.
Thanks for your quick reply and for all the details :)
I understand that removing 121 php-horde* packages mid-release is
impractical, and this should indeed have been done during the freeze.
Meanwhile php-horde* was marked EOL for bookworm:
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/debian-security-support/-/commit/1dea5e2eb31a2cb2ac7bffd8a492a4f55fc4942a
This sounds like a good compromise to handle the situation, consequently
I won't pursue this request further and I'm closing it.
Cheers!
