[Bug 2048766] [NEW] Please remove dmraid from the Ubuntu archive

[Lukas Märdian]

Public bug reported:

It got dropped from Debian due to being obsolete and dead upstream. An
alternative seems to be "mdadm".

We're still tracking it in Ubuntu "main" as part of the live-common seed and an Ubiquity Recommends.
The Ubiquity installer is depecrated, though. So we should consider dropping dmraid from main.
