Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

Dear ftpmasters,

please remove gnuift, the "GNU Image Finding Tool - index and search
images by content" package. It FTBFS since 2018, and is orphaned since
2008 (no typo). For a while apparently there was some interest in
keeping the package in Debian on life support, but seemingly this has
died down.
It also missed the last stable release, given it FTBFS even longer.

Thanks,
Chris
