Bug#1009009: RM: libgweather --RoM; obsolete, replaced by libgweather4

Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-CC: libgweather at packages.debian.org

The libgweather source package is no longer used and has been replaced
by libgweather4. Upstream did some creative version numbering which
required us to use a separate source package.

Therefore, please remove source libgweather.


There is one remaining reverse dependency: gnome-shell-xrdesktop which
already has unfulfillable dependencies and should probably be removed
from Unstable soon anyway. See https://bugs.debian.org/1008471 but I
think it's appropriate to give a little more time to the Maintainer to
respond before taking further action there.

The only open libgweather bugs in Debian are very old and I'm fine
with having them closed since they don't look valid any more to me.

On behalf of the Debian GNOME Team,
