• Bug#1103850: Should mlton be removed from unstable?

    From Helmut Grohne@21:1/5 to All on Tue Apr 22 01:00:01 2025
    Source: mlton
    Severity: important
    User: helmutg@debian.org
    Usertags: sidremove

    Dear maintainer,

    I suggest removing mlton from Debian for the following reasons:
    * It accumulated 2 RC-bugs:
    + #917644: FTBFS: segmentation faults in test suite
    Last modified: 3 years

    + #998156: contains non-DFSG-free files
    Last modified: 3 years

    * It is not part of bookworm or trixie and is not a key package.

    This bug serves as a pre-removal warning. After one month, the bug will be reassigned to ftp.debian.org to actually request removal of the package.

    In case the package should be kept in unstable, please evaluate each of the RC-bugs listed above.
    * If the bug is meant to permanently prevent the package from entering testing
    or a stable release, but this package should stay part of unstable, please
    add a usertag:

    user helmutg@debian.org
    usertags NNN + sidremove-ignore

    * If the bug no longer applies, please close it. If it is closed, check
    whether the fixed version is correct and adjust if necessary.

    * Is the bug really release-critical? If not, please downgrade.

    * If the bug still applies, please send a status update at least once a year.

    Once all of the mentioned RC bugs have been acted upon in one way or another, please close this bug.

    In case the package should be removed from unstable, you may reassign this
    bug report:

    Control: severity -1 normal
    Control: retitle -1 RM: mlton -- RoM; rc-buggy
    Control: reassign -1 ftp.debian.org
    Control: affects -1 + src:mlton

    Alternatively, you may wait a month and have it reassigned.

    In case you disagree with the above, please add a wontfix tag to this bug.

    Control: tags -1 + wontfix

    Doing so will also prevent automatic reassignment.

    Temporarily marking as wontfix: after much work, a new upstream release
    of mlton will be uploaded this week.

    Best,
    Ryan
