[Christian Hofstaedtler]

Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

Dear ftpmasters,

Please remove this package cluster from sid:

  chef-server-api chef-server-webui chef-solr ruby-merb-core ruby-merb-assets ruby-merb-helpers ruby-merb-param-protection chef-expander ruby-merb-haml


ruby-merb-* has long been obsoleted by Rails 3 (and later), and upstream
has ceased development in 2011.

The chef-* packages have long been obsoleted by "Erlang Chef".
(They depend on ruby-merb-*...)

Will remove the following packages from unstable:

chef-expander |  10.12.0-1 | source, all
chef-server-api |  10.12.0-1 | source, all
chef-server-webui | 10.12.0+dfsg-1 | source, all
chef-solr | 10.12.0+dfsg-2 | source, all
libmerb-helpers-ruby |    1.1.3-1 | all
libmerb-helpers-ruby1.8 |    1.1.3-1 | all
merb-core | 1.1.3+dfsg-3 | all
ruby-merb-assets |    1.1.3-2 | source, all
ruby-merb-core | 1.1.3+dfsg-3 | source, all
ruby-merb-haml |    1.1.3-3 | source, all
ruby-merb-helpers |    1.1.3-1 | source, all
ruby-merb-param-protection |    1.1.3-2 | source, all
