Bug#684533: Fwd: RDF::TrineShortcuts - deprecation

[Kjetil Kjernsmo]

Package: librdf-trineshortcuts-perl
Version: 0.104-1
Severity: serious

Please see the below email from the upstream developer. Given this, I 
suppose this package shouldn't make it to Wheezy when it is stable. If I'm 
wrong, please feel free to close.

Cheers,

Kjetil

RDF::TrineShortcuts is a pretty nasty hack, and many of the reasons for
its existence are no longer valid. For example, at the time I wrote it,
RDF::Trine didn't have support for auto-detecting the serialization of
a URL or file and parsing it; now it does.

Anyway, it should be considered strongly deprecated. It will be deleted
from CPAN at some point later this year (though will still be
available from BackPAN). I just need to rework a few modules that
currently depend on it.
