Ah, indeed, it seems that the version of libsasl2-gssapi-mit in the archive for etch/lenny is not from the cyrus-sasl2-mit source package, which means cyrus-sasl2-mit provides only one obsolete binary package currently and is not uploadable in its current state -- so yes, this should definitely be removed from the archive. > Apparently there was no transition package that would have pulled in > libsasl2-modules-gssapi-mit (the package that now provides this > functionality). Should we provide the transition for lenny in > cyrus-sasl2?
