Please remove wayfire-shadows from Debian. It was orphaned in 2024 and
it depends on wayfire, but wayfire is unmaintained in Debian and is
being removed.

Orphan bug: https://bugs.debian.org/1076390

Thank you,

It looks like there is someone interested in fixing wayfire's bug for
Debian, but wayfire-shadows isn't as interesting to them.
wayfire-shadows is one extra thing that needs to be updated or removed
for every wlroots or wayfire transition. It was already removed twice
for two wlroots transitions in the past year. Therefore, please remove
wayfire-shadows from Debian.

Thank you,
