21 This are the cases where removal is not a best solution. straw and
22 logjam have upstream so it's better to move them into Sunrise: users who
23 use this packages could maintain them there... For ggv it seems that
24 it's better to leave it as is. May be just stabilize the most recent
25 version - let arch teams test it and if it works no need to remove it
26 from the tree.
