So let's remove aiccu from unstable, too. We'll definitely leave the git repo under collab-maint, in case there's a reason to resume maintaining an aiccu package in Debian. P.S.: I'm keeping the RC bug open for aiccu so that it doesn't propagate to testing while waiting for being removed. Hence the clone instead of just reassigning.
