Bug#1110865: RM: libglade2 -- ROM; obsolete, long-dead upstream, not in trixie

[Simon McVittie]

Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: libglade2 at packages.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:libglade2

libglade2 was superseded in 2007, the upstream project had its most 
recent commit in 2010 before it was archived in read-only status, and 
reverse-dependencies in Debian were reminded to port away from it by a 
mass-bug-filing in 2018. It was excluded from trixie, and only has three 
surviving rdeps. I think it's long past time to say goodbye to it.

"Request of maintainer" on behalf of the GNOME team.

In the unlikely event that someone wants it back for whatever reason, 
libglade2 and its three remaining rdeps haven't been touched since 
bookworm, so a hypothetical prospective maintainer could pick them up 
from there.

Thanks,
