s/flightgear/simgear sorry

as said, vmtk won't migrate because of missing powerpc build.
In fact in Debian we restricted to amd64 and i386 only, but in Ubuntu insighttoolkit4 builds everywhere except powerpc, so please remove that one

fslview can go in my opinion, too broken in current state Debian broke
it

>(In practice, this bug tipped me off to the fact that my runs were for
some reason using stale >Debian Packages files, so thanks!)

I know they should be semi-automatic, but many of them are building on
more architectures, or have some more reverse-deps, this is why I
thought a bug was a good way to track them down :)

samtoools:
>Has stacks as a reverse-dependency, this must be resolved first.

yes, and stacks has been removed in Debian too, for armhf powerpc s390x


>It is not true that fpc has been removed from Debian.
wrong section, I mean, remove fpc on powerpc, it needs a bootstrap anyway, it is rc buggy in Debian, it will make the current Debian fixes migrate in yakkety

>Probably was never built in Debian. But regardless, gnome-video-arcade
depends on mame and is built >on ppc64el, so this needs to be resolved
first.

gnome-video-arcade is a mame frontend, so please remoe that too on
ppc64el!

Bug description:
  (NOTE: all of them are gone from Debian)
  1) libpng.
  Superseded by libpng16

  no reverse dependencies I can see
  2) insighttoolkit
  Superseded by insighttoolkit4
  it doesn't build on powerpc, so we have to remove binaries here
  (sorry, but Debian maintains only amd64 and i386, and we can't maintain all the others including powerpc)

  just removing vmtk/powerpc should allow its removal too

  3) vtk
  Superseded by vtk6

  needs vmtk migration
  and fslview removal or demote to proposed.
  Debian broke it, because it is already broken, and it has little fix in time probability
  (probably we will remove in Debian soon)

  4) samtools
  old binaries left on armhf: libbam-dev, samtools (from 0.1.19-1ubuntu1)
  old binaries left on powerpc: libbam-dev, samtools (from 0.1.19-1ubuntu1)
  old binaries left on s390x: libbam-dev, samtools (from 0.1.19-1ubuntu1)

  removed in Debian too

  5) pepperflashplugin-nonfree [i386]
  please remove on i386 (removed in Debian too)
  upstream is not supporting it, so it can't be downloaded/installed on i386 anymore

  6) singular [armhf]
  removed in Debian too

  7) fpc [powerpc]
  powerpc sadness with glib 2.23
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fpc/+bug/1562480

  8) mame [ppc64el]
  sandness on that arch, removed in Debian

  9) flightgear [armhf]
  I don't care about simgear/armhf, because it is unlikely for such a game to run on thar architecture.
