Hello,
asking Steve McIntyre (= maintainer of src:wmaloader) in irc about some
problem[1] with wmaloader he responded:
1513543992 < Sledge> ukleinek: oh $deity, I thought I'd offloaded it ages ago
1513544068 < Sledge> ukleinek: please file an RM bug
1513544084 < Sledge> I've not used the hwardware involved for ~5 years
The package got an NMU to fix a link failure in 2011 and the last change
before that was in 2009. It seems the relevant hardware isn't produced
any more, so I agree with Steve that it's sensible to drop this package.
Best regards
Uwe
[1] The problem in my case is that wmaloader is hard to port to
libupnp10 because it uses some internal stuff of libupnp6 and so is
in the way for the libupnp transition (#884635)
