IMHO yes.

yes, piuparts still uses debfoster for its --minimize option, so please dont 
remove it.

well, like lots of other software, it's not activly developed anymore, but it 
is maintained. Ironically even one of the debfoster maintainers objected to 
the removal request, but didnt close it.

I think #730172 should be closed.


cheers,
