Hi,

please remove cutter from Debian Unstable:

* the last time cutter has been in a stable release was with Debian 9
  Stretch (aka oldoldstable at the time of writing).

* It is orphaned since 2017. (https://bugs.debian.org/885922)

* It has an open RC bugs since 2017 (https://bugs.debian.org/446343,
  reports is older, but got bumped to RC in 2017) and nobody
  cared.

  Even worse: Actually the RC bug was against 1.03 and said to be
  fixed in 1.04 upstream, but nobody closed it when 1.04 got uploaded
  a few months later. And nobody seems to have noticed that until now.

* Additionally, even cutter 1.04 seems not to work properly with the
  current nf_conntrack kernel module, see comments #23 and #24 on
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cutter/+bug/240147

* Installation number is more or less constantly declining since 2015
  (below 100 now) and "vote" is single digit for about a year now:
https://qa.debian.org/popcon-graph.php?packages=cutter

* There is no newer version than 1.04 from 2015 on
http://www.digitage.co.uk/digitage/files/cutter/ (i.e. looks dead
  upstream)

Thanks in advance!

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:

    cutter |     1.04-1 | source
    cutter |  1.04-1+b1 | amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips64el, mipsel, ppc64el, s390x

------------------- Reason -------------------
RoQA; no more works with current kernels, rc-buggy for years, orphaned, low popcon, looks dead upstream
----------------------------------------------

Note that the package(s) have simply been removed from the tag
database and may (or may not) still be in the pool; this is not a bug.
The package(s) will be physically removed automatically when no suite
references them (and in the case of source, when no binary references
it).  Please also remember that the changes have been done on the
master archive and will not propagate to any mirrors until the next
dinstall run at the earliest.

Packages are usually not removed from testing by hand. Testing tracks
unstable and will automatically remove packages which were removed
from unstable when removing them from testing causes no dependency
problems. The release team can force a removal from testing if it is
really needed, please contact them if this should be the case.

We try to close bugs which have been reported against this package
automatically. But please check all old bugs, if they were closed
correctly or should have been re-assigned to another package.

Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed.  If you
have further comments please address them to 1010705@bugs.debian.org.
