Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

I am one of the maintainer of the mame arcade emulator, for which
gmameui is a front end.

Gmameui has been known to be unreliable and crashes in various ways:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=610483
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gmameui/+bug/606944
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gmameui/+bug/738355
Upstream has not seen a commit since nearly three years.

We have in the archive an alternative front end, gnome video arcade
which has an active upstream, and proves to be more much stable.
Therefore I am asking for the removal of this package.

I asked the Debian Games Team (maintainer of the package) and Gonéri Le
Bouder the last uploader, and there was no objection to this removal.
