Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

Bonobo has been deprecated since the GNOME 2 to GNOME 3 transition and
is unmaintained upstream. libbonoboui was already in oldlibs, but the
non-GUI library and development packages weren't. Their removal from
buster has been proposed, but they are currently kept in by
reverse-dependencies.

Even if someone adopts these libraries, their use in new applications
should be strongly discouraged.
