Re: [directory-discuss] Debian related removals

[Greg Rundlett (freephile)]

I can't say whether data packages belong, but i think a font IS software.  It's one of the most fundamental free softwares.

I spotted the anarchism package in the directory, which probably does
not belong (as its not software). This seems to have been added in the
import [1].

I have written a little script (attached) which pulls out items in the
directory which are tagged in Debian as containing data (role::data or
role::app-data).

I then filtered this, removing mistakes, and I have attached the list
below. If I am correct in saying that the directory should only contain
software, then these pages probably want removing. I can't seem to do
this, hence I am emailing the list.
