Hi Raphael,

I was working in new revision of proxychains[1], I got sponsor in
mentors, but the package was reject because the new library has
include in proxychains-ng package[2], (I did not know that this was
already included in debian :/) so I believe that old proxychains
package it could be removed.. What do you think?

Regards
