<p>Robet,</p>
<p>Can you confirm the information I got that the driver can only be
used to convert legacy datasets (can they still be downloaded from
web sites?) and not recent ones ? How much time still do you plan
to use it ?<br>
</p>

sosi2osm was removed from Debian during the bookworm
development cycle.<br clear="none">
<br clear="none">
The only rdep of fyba in Debian is gdal now.<br clear="none">
<br clear="none">
Almost all installations of libfyba are due to it being a
dependency of <br clear="none">
gdal, that's why it has 23911 installations but only 513
votes (regular <br clear="none">
users).<br clear="none">

popcon is opt-in, there are only ~230000 systems running
popcon out of <br clear="none">
millions of Debian installations. Hence it's mostly usable
to provide <br clear="none">
insight into relative popularity compared to other packages

Container images are unlikely to enable popcon, the Docker

even have it installed.<br clear="none">

Me too, if there are none left we can also remove the fyba
package from <br clear="none">
Debian.<br clear="none">
