Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: thepeg at packages.debian.org
Control: block 932052 by -1

Please consider removing thepeg from unstable. It FTBFS with gcc 9 without
any obvious signs of progress, depends on lhapdf which FTBFS with gcc 8,
and indirectly depends on gcc 7 which is obsolete.

Maintainers in CC to check for objections; if you object to this removal,
please fix the various FTBFS bugs in thepeg and its dependency lhapdf,
so that they can be rebuilt with the current gcc version.

ftp team: if thepeg is removed, I believe it's lhapdf's last
reverse-dependency, so please revisit #932052 at that time.
