Severity: normal

Hi,

Please remove the libgnu-regexp-java package. This regular expression
library for Java is no longer used in Debian and is dead upstream.
Java has gotten its own standard regular expression API in 2002 and
there is little hope this library will be useful again.

Thank you,

Emmanuel Bourg
