Bug#834953: ams: Should this package be removed?

[Reinhard Tartler]

Package: ams
Severity: normal

Hi,

The package "ams" hasn't seen an upstream release since April 2014
(cf. http://alsamodular.sourceforge.net/). The last upload to debian
was on 2014-04-12.

It currently has one RC bug, and if I read popcon correctly, 46
installations: https://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=ams

I also checked that there are currently no reverse dependencies:

siretart at coccia:~$ dak rm -Rn ams
Will remove the following packages from unstable:

       ams |    2.1.1-1 | source, amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips, mips64el, mipsel, powerpc, ppc64el, s390x

Maintainer: Debian Multimedia Maintainers <pkg-multimedia-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org>

------------------- Reason -------------------

----------------------------------------------

Checking reverse dependencies...
No dependency problem found.


I would recommend removing this package. If you agree, please reassign
this bug to the "ftp.debian.org" pseudo package and retitle "RoM: dead upstream"

Thanks,
Reinhard
