Bug#635610: libgalago: should this package (and those associated) be removed?

[Simon McVittie]

Package: libgalago
Severity: normal

Galago seems to be dead upstream, the library is currently RC-buggy, and
its only non-Galago dependency in Debian is Totem.

Here's what would break:

I think the only thing there that remains useful for Debian is Totem,
which could be fixed by dropping the galago plugin from
totem-plugins/unstable, or by waiting for Totem 3 (which no longer has that
plugin anyway) to reach unstable.
