Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: ftp.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: remove

X-Debbugs-Cc: woff-tools@packages.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:woff-tools

woff-tools popped up on BOTD today.

The upstream is gone many times over and we already ship sfnt2woff-zopfli,
which is maintained, up-to-date, and fully-compatible.

I've opened
  https://salsa.debian.org/fonts-team/sfnt2woff-zopfli/-/merge_requests/1
and pinged the maintainer about it to smoothly transition
from src:woff-tools bin:woff-tools
  to src:sfnt2woff-zopfli bin:woff-tools
     (transitional, Depends: sfnt2woff-zopfli),
	 and bin:sfnt2woff-zopfli with compat symlinks.

moreinfo because there's rdeps that need continuity,
so this can only be removed after src:sfnt2woff-zopfli starts providing
bin:woff-tools in sid.
