This package was added to Debian as a dependency of Gitea. I am no longer
working on Gitea and no longer have a reason to continue maintaining the
dependencies.

The golang-github-ngaut-sync2 package ship upstream code from 2014 and
appears unmaintained.  It has no reverse dependencies in Debian.

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/golang-github-ngaut-sync2

The upstream project has not seen any git commit in the last 12 years:

https://github.com/ngaut/sync2

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.

No dependency problem found.

jas@frallan:~$

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

golang-github-ngaut-sync2 | 0.0~git20141008.0.7a24ed7-9 | source
golang-github-ngaut-sync2-dev | 0.0~git20141008.0.7a24ed7-9 | 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 889215@bugs.debian.org.
