This package was last uploaded on 2024-02-12 with upstream code (orig.tar)
from 2020-11-21.  It has no reverse dependencies in Debian testing, see
dak output at the end of this e-mail.

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/golang-github-revel-revel

Having golang-*-dev packages in testing, and consequently the next
stable release, has a QA cost.  These packages normally have no use
for Debian users, but are intended for building other Debian packages
that rely on them.  No package in Debian testing rely on this package.

This bug is filed to trigger discussion if the package is still useful
to keep in Debian testing, and also (when no discussion occurs after
one week) trigger testing autoremoval of the package.

Please don't take this as disrespect of the amount of work that went
into the upstream code, or its packaging -- this bug report is part of
a QA effort to remove 100+ unused golang-*-dev packages.  The QA cost
associated with keeping all the packages in testing is assumed to be
larger than the cost to (hopefully rarely) have some discussion,
re-evaluation and closing of this bug report, if there is ever any
reasonable need to keep this package in testing.

If you discover this bug report when doing QA work on this package,
please consider avoid doing any QA upload, and instead evaluate if the
package still has any use in Debian, and consider re-assigning this to
a ftp-master RM bug to finally trigger removal of it.

The golang-github-revel-revel package doesn't build any more since
'golang-pathtree' was removed.  It has no reverse dependencies in
Debian.

This removal request is part of a larger batch to remove 100+ unused
golang-*-dev packages from Debian.  I believe the QA cost associated
with keeping all of them is larger than the cost of (hopefully extremely
rare) re-introduction of any accidentally removed package if there is
ever any future need for it.  Meanwhile, I don't think it is useful to
keep this package in Debian.

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

golang-github-revel-revel |    1.0.0-3 | source
golang-github-revel-revel-dev |    1.0.0-3 | all

------------------- Reason -------------------
ROTeamM; unmaintained and unused
----------------------------------------------

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 1145729@bugs.debian.org.
