Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

Please remove xerces25 and its associated binary packages.  It has
been superseded by newer versions.  At present, xerces26 and xerces27
are both in sid.  I hope to request removal of xerces26 before etch,
but for the time being, there is one package that depends upon it and
won't work with a newer version.  As of this moment, there are two
packages that depend upon xerces25.  I have already NMU'ed one to
update its dependencies.  The other one, xalan, is two versions out of
date, and the latest upstream version works with xerces27.  Removal of
xerces25 in spite of this reverse dependency has been blessed by the
release team.  Thanks!
