I *am* sorry that some of dba's time was likely wasted, especially since it's obvious he has a shortage of it, maintaining quite a few packages. For the same reason I fail to see how having one less package to maintain could be anything but a relief. The bug messages on orphan bugs say something along the lines of "not worth it". If you're purely maintaining those packages to help out, and you feel it is a strain time-wise, then how could not having to maintain another package make you feel it's "not worth it". -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
