Please remove root-system from natty

[Steve Langasek]

Removal justification: package not included in Debian squeeze. Seven ubuntu revisions on this package, and every one is a fix to keep the package buildable! Seems long gone upstream.

root-system version 5.18.00-2.3ubuntu7 failed to build on armel

This log snippet might be of interest, since it triggered the matcher 'Purging chroot-autobuild'.

Purging chroot-autobuild/build/buildd/root-system-5.18.00

[Steve Langasek (vorlon)]

Sorry, I've gotten partway through this (patch attached), but the build still fails because in spite of passing --with-krb5-libdir, the system doesn't want to build the kerberos module.

Since root-system was removed from Debian before squeeze released, and it looks like the only maintenance of this package in Ubuntu has been to keep it building(!), I think it may be best to remove the package from natty.

Attached is a patch for partially fixing the build.
