Source: swift-im
Version: 2.0+dev6-1
Severity: serious

Dear maintainer,

swift-im:

* has few users https://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=swift-im
* has 2 unanswered RC bugs since 9 months #797279 #822131
* FTBFS
* several other bugs with no action taken (and waiting for the next big
  upstream is no reason for that, uploads fixing stuff can be done
  nevertheless; also, cherry-pick is a thing and stuff fixed in the next
  release could be backported; and if this is too much of a delta, then
  you should probably release it more often)
* no uploads since 2013
* hinders openssl decruft

This package looks all in all in a bad shape, and I wonder whether it
would be better to be without it instead.




RM: swift-im -- RoQA; FTBFS; RC-buggy; FTBFS; unmaintained; low popcon
