Bug Description
Binary package hint: afflib
Please remove afflib from karmic.
As a reaction to my recent upload to fix a FTBFS found by the archive rebuild, I got contacted by upstream why we package such and old version of afflib. And upstreams would prefer that we either package the current version and failing that, would prefer to get this old version removed as it causes confusion to his users. According to upstream this old version is bug-ridden, has performance issues and lacks functionality.
Based on the non-maintainance of the current package in Ubuntu (packaged in Sep 2006, one upload in Jun 2008 to fix a FTBFS, and other upload a few days ago, also to fix a FTBFS) and no filed bugs, I'd assume that this package has no users in Ubuntu. There are no r(build)depends.
