Ok then, I suggest the following actions:
- Make CSWpmlistmoreutils incompatible with CSWpmlistmoreut as both
   have no packages depending on it. The package is maintained by
   Benny, I don't know if he has idle by now. I can do a
   courtesy rebuild if necessary. Then CSWpmlistmoreut should be removed
   from the catalog.
- Make CSWpmprmsvldt an empty stub depending on CSWpmparamsvalidate
- File bugs against packages depending on CSWpmprmsvldt to depend
   on CSWpmparamsvalidate instead
- After resolving all these remove CSWpmprmsvldt from the catalog
   and make it incompatible to CSWpmparamsvalidate

Comments?
