Package: libogg-vorbis-header-perl
Version: 0.03-3+b1
Severity: important
User: pkg-perl-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: post-squeeze

Hi,

Niko suggested to remove this package as it is dead upstream and
alternatives exist (libogg-vorbis-header-pureperl-perl) [1].

As there are still rdeps, I suggest to remove this package once Squeeze
has been released.  As libogg-vorbis-header-pureperl-perl is intended to
be a drop-in replacement it should be easy to change the rdeps.

Regards,
Ansgar
