Bug#686766: Is it time to remove dmedia?

[Bilal Akhtar]

Hi Luca,

Newer versions of dmedia depend on libraries which are not a part of
Debian (yet), so it makes sense to remove dmedia from the archive
right now, and then add it later on when the novacut stack is complete
(and the required libraries are in place). I chatted with upstream
too, and they didn't have any objections to a package removal.
So, feel free to go ahead and file a removal request. Do we need the
entire team's consent for that?
