<SARCASM>Isn't it great</SARCASM> when the policy designed to remove
breakage from the distribution actually CREATES breakage? Retiring packages
with no regards to their reverse dependencies is just broken. It had never
been done that way in the past, before Miro's recent crackdown, because it
simply defeats all common sense.

Kevin, I agree with you on some topics, but please stop spreading FUD like this. The maintainers got notifications for *four months* before the package was retired, and obviously ignored them. Another 5 months passed without somebody posting this message to the devel list, and nobody unretired the package during that time. I'd say good riddance to broken and unmaintained packages like this one.
Don't blame Miro for doing the necessary things, just because you don't like the process. We have asked you multiple times to suggest a policy that works for you too, but you haven't done that, instead you only insulted community members.
