Package: developers-reference Version: 3.3.5 Severity: minor Section 5.9.2 "Removing packages" of the Developer's Reference states, in part:
If for some reason you want to completely remove a package (say, if it is an old compatibility library which is no longer required), you need to file a bug against ftp.debian.org asking that the package be removed. Make sure you indicate which distribution the package should be removed from. Normally, you can only have packages removed from unstable and experimental. Packages are not removed from testing directly. Rather, they will be removed automatically after the package has been removed from unstable and no package in testing depends on it. It should also state which severity such a bug should be filed at.
