Indeed, this seems to be the case. However, I don't think it was intentional. Upstream was renamed from irclib to irc, and I think it's likely that it was not noticed by the maintainer of python-irc that python-irclib was actually the old version of the same package. > Given that the other package is actively maintained and this package hasn't > received a single maintainer upload since 2008, I suggest this package is > dropped from Debian once all reverse depends are updated to use python-irc. Right. For this to happen, we need to file bugs against each of the packages that depend on python-irclib: jabber-irc: jabber-irc python-cobe: python-cobe xpilot-ng: xpilot-ng-common All these packages require bugs in order to get fixed and only then can python-irclib get removed. -- Regards, Marga -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
