Bug#885657: rarian: Don't release with Buster

[Jeremy Bicha]

Source: rarian
Version: 0.8.1-6
Severity: serious
User: pkg-gnome-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: oldlibs rarian
Tags: sid buster

scrollkeeper has been deprecated and unmaintained for years. Its
replacement, rarian has been deprecated for years too. More
importantly, it doesn't seem to be needed at all. yelp can easily
display Docbook help files without any .omf files.

We do not intend to ship rarian in Debian 10 "Buster".

About half the affected packages in Testing already have patches
prepared or are trivial to fix. The remainder probably just need to
have scrollkeeper dropped from their build systems (which might involve
some work with autoreconf and removing old copies of autoconf macros.
Many of the affected packages have *old* build systems.).
