Comment 3 for bug 1956345

It looks like the main rdepends of this package is libsoup2.4-tests:

libsoup2.4-tests
  ...
  Depends: php
    uwsgi-plugin-php
    php8.0
    php8.1
 |Depends: php-xmlrpc
    php8.1-xmlrpc
  ...

(Both php-xmlrpc and php8.1-xmlrpc binary packages come from php-xmlrpc source).

I am noticing that there is a new version of libsoup2.4 in -proposed, whose changes look like they are aiming to mark xmlrpc tests skippable. Looking at the build and test logs for libsoup2.4, it does not appear that the php*-xmlrpc binary package gets installed.

So I wonder if once we can get php-defaults and libsoup2.4 to migrate, if the php-xmlrpc source package becomes vestigial and can be dropped from the archive?
