[csw-maintainers] Fwd: [csw-pkgsubmissions] newpkgs pm_podescapes

[Peter Bonivart]

Sorry for top-posting, background below.

CSWpmpodescapes only has three packages that depend on it, two of them
(CSWpmpodsimple and CSWmailscanner) are mine and already rebuilt
without it. The third one is an orphaned package from Cory, CSWsvk
which I have also rebuilt without this dep.

CSWsvk and CSWpmpodsimple are now also up to date, also respun a new
version of pm_svnmirror to make CSWsvk happy.

If this is ok I will submit these four and you can remove CSWpmpodescapes.

well, if Perldoc is part of official 5.10.1 perl, then just officially
request that the package be removed and marked as obsolete.
"official", in this case, is probably best pursued as "email the
maintainers list", so it gets archived properly.
