Bug#1069729: bsdgames: Please keep quiz

[Kacper Gutowski]

Package: bsdgames
Version: 2.17-33
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

Recently quiz(6) was removed from the package.
I understand that the plan is to switch to a different fork linked in
changelog whose developers consider quiz(6) to be "just plain junk."
I can't say I understand that rationale, or why does it apply to quiz(6)
but not to arithmetic(6), for example. But seeing that pom(6) was
retained despite that fork disliking it, I would like to request
that quiz(6) is kept packaged as well. I find it useful.
