Hi,

since metee does not have a stable ABI, upstream changes SONAME with every
release. That is very annoying, so I'm shipping metee as part of its only
user, igsc. It may be reintroduced as a separate package later on when the
ABI is stable enough for upstream to commit to it.

Therefore, the metee package is no longer needed as a separate package and
can be removed.

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

libmetee-dev |    6.2.3-3 | amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, loong64, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x
libmetee6.2.3.0 |    6.2.3-3 | amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, loong64, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x
     metee |    6.2.3-3 | source
------------------- Reason ------------------- ROM; folded into igsc package ---------------------------------------------- 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 1151953@bugs.debian.org. The full log for this bug can be viewed at https://bugs.debian.org/1151953 This message was generated automatically; if you believe that there is a problem with it please contact the archive administrators by mailing ftpmaster@ftp-master.debian.org.
