as you can check from http://packages.ubuntu.com, khexedit can be found in the Hardy repository, but not anymore in the Intrepid and Jaunty - hugelly scarry, isn't it? =(

just check:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/khexedit

and be surprised with:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/khexedit
http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/khexedit

My concern is this can destroy all the passion, enthusiasm and effort spent on whole open-source development - i think it's very, very serious.

If you find a change without a changelog entry, you can do a great service to the community by tracking down the missing information and then file a bug against that package.

In the case of khexedit, see http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/release-team/2008-March/001848.html . It was replaced by okteta.]]> Tue, 02 Dec 2008 01:23:32 +0000
maybe a new repository category is needed, besides main, multiverse, universe and restricted - a category named 'vanished'...]]> Tue, 02 Dec 2008 16:47:31 +0000
So I don't see the point of expending effort to package and test orphans and triage their bugs, since nobody upstream is going to fix the problems that are found - that's why they are orphans.

Of course, any community member willing to put in the time and love can adopt most orphans - or fork their beloved khexedit and create a PPA.]]> Tue, 02 Dec 2008 19:47:01 +0000 Wed, 10 Dec 2008 14:32:40 +0000
