Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

gtkpod upstream has moved but has not had any activity for over 5 years.

When investigating the two CVEs against AtomicParsley, former maintainer Matteo F. Vescovi reached
out to me to suggest removal of gtkpod.

The use case for this package seems to be declining / absent and 4 crash bugs are currently open.

Fixes for these bugs and CVEs seem unlikely to appear, it would seem best to remove gtkpod
from Debian at this point.

Thanks
