Package: ftp.debian.org Severity: normal As reported in #581243, this package contains images taken from MSIE:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=581243 Here's the discussion from #debian-qa: <daemonkeeper> I would say, verify #581243 and if your suspicion appears valid file a RoQA ftp removal. <ol> i don't have Windows to compare them with <jwilk> If I rember these Windows icons, does it mean my brain is non-free? :> * daemonkeeper files a ftp removal bug against jwilk <daemonkeeper> RM: jwilk -- stores non-free images in his brain <jwilk> http://www.securitycentre.standardbank.co.za/assets/images/certificate.png - the one in esteidutil looks identical. I loaded the image jwilk pointed to and esteidutil-0.9.18/src/resources/cert.gif into gimp to compare. They clearly show the same certificate icon, though there are slight differences in the exact shade of a few pixels - the GIF has an 8 entry indexed palette, so this looks like it's just had the number of colours reduced slightly. Aside from this, the maintainer seems to have lost interest in the package - there's not been a maintainer upload since 2008-09-09 - over 3 years ago, and there have been several new upstream releases which sound like they fix significant bugs. It looks like the Debian maintainer is also the upstream, so should be aware of new releases! There's a two year old FTBFS bug has had no maintainer response at all, which I pinged the maintainer in 3 weeks ago, with no response: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=554331 Popcon score is very low (21 installs, 2 votes, 3 recent). The package provides support for an Estonian ID smartcard, which means the maintainer really needs to have such a card. So removal seems a better option than trying to fix the RC bugs and orphaning.
