So... Ignoring the name... What about people who were actually using it for serious purposes? Are they just basically "fucked", to use another word they probably wouldn't like?
I personally have never noticed it's presence in my searching of the Debian repos. Or perhaps I did, giggled, and went about my work. But what if I HAD discovered it, used it, and now get told it's being removed over it's bloody name? I've had packages go AWOL before, but usually because development has stopped. How angry would you be if you had to spend hours finding, researching and replacing this because some politically correct arsehole doesn't like it's bloody name.
