Bug#736487: RM: drawmap -- ROM; Orphaned upstream, not properly maintained inside Debian

[Andreas Tille]

Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

Hi,

please remove the package from Debian.  It is dead upstream and
not state of the art any more (can be replaced by mapnik and others).

Kind regards

       Andreas.

I would simply ask for dropping the package, maintaining dead stuff
is generally a PITA, with no exceptions.
