Hi,

Please remove the libtfu8-locale0 and libutf8-locale-dev packages
from unstable. A new version of the utf8-locale source package was
uploaded yesterday that no longer builds these two packages, since
they are not required any more for the u8loc binary package.

On a related note, the utf8-locale package no longer builds the u8loc
binary package, either, but that one should not really be removed,
since it is already built by the new rust-u8loc package. Will this -
the fact that utf8-locale does not build u8loc - be a problem for
britney? Will it also expect utf8-locale to build u8loc, or is
the fact that there is a u8loc package in unstable (luckily enough,
even with the same version) good enough?

Thanks in advance, and sorry for making a bit of a mess!

G'luck,
Peter

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

libutf8-locale-dev |    1.0.4-1 | amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, loong64, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x
libutf8-locale0 |    1.0.4-1 | amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, loong64, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x

------------------- Reason -------------------
NBS; no longer built by utf8-locale
----------------------------------------------

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.

Bugs which have been reported against this package are not automatically
removed from the Bug Tracking System.  Please check all open bugs and
close them or re-assign them to another package if the removed package
was superseded by another one.

The version of this package that was in Debian prior to this removal
can still be found using https://snapshot.debian.org/.

Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed.  If you
have further comments please address them to 1143954@bugs.debian.org.
