Bug Description

u-boot-linaro appears to be a fork of u-boot with some extra patches which has not been updated for amolst 5 years now.

Even if there are outstanding features in u-boot-linaro that are not present in u-boot package, these changes should be rebased and added to the u-boot package, preferably upstream, or in debian, or in the ubuntu delta.

please rm u-boot-linaro, this will put us one step closer to removing gcc-4.7 from the archive.
