That brings us off topic to the question of how to really remove 
packages? I think this should be done in the devel branch only, but it 
really needs to be done and we need some policy for this. For example 
etherdiag, netdiag and mknbi look like fine candidates for full removal 
to me. Are these still available from the devel repo, or are these only 
still in CVS? If so how do we differentiate in CVS between orphan but 
still available in devel repo could use a new maintainer. And orphan, 
(should be) removed from devel repo, concidered dead unless someone 
really still has a use for it and wants to pick it up?
