libsocialweb was part of the Meego project, which is no longer maintained upstream. Nothing in Debian unstable depends on it, except for bisho. bisho was also part of the Meego project. From its package description, it appears to be a configuration utility for Meego social media integration (meaning libsocialweb?). This doesn't seem like a useful thing to have in Debian when we don't seem to have anything that will make use of that configuration. I think these packages should be removed from Debian. If you agree, please reassign these bugs to the archive administrators with control commands similar to these: severity xxxxxx normal reassign xxxxxx ftp.debian.org retitle xxxxxx RM: bisho -- RoQA; unmaintained upstream, depends on obsolete libraries severity yyyyyy normal reassign yyyyyy ftp.debian.org retitle yyyyyy RM: libsocialweb -- RoQA; unmaintained upstream, depends on obsolete libraries Conversely, if you think this package should remain in Debian, please close this bug, and fix its RC bug(s). This would almost certainly involve becoming its de facto upstream maintainer. Thanks, smcv
