Package: wnpp
Hi all,
I'm orphaning this one for a number of reasons, and in fact I think it
should probably be removed altogether from Debian. When I suggested
this a while ago on -devel there were no responses either way. The
reasons are
* I can no longer test new versions of this package, as I'm using
apt-zip rather than my not-free dialup access. I wrote it when I
was accessing the University's NFS archive mirror!
* It's slightly buggy, and badly out-of-date policy-wise.
* Apt now provides (AFAIK) all the features provided by
dpkg-mountable, and some (such as package ordering) that it never
got around to getting.
It should probably be left to sit for a while, in case somebody does
decide to pick it up, and removed at final freeze if nobody has taken
it up by then.
Regards,
Andy
