Bug Description

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-dmc

These drivers are unmaintained upstream, they don't build against xserver 1.6 and they have no bugs. Debian has agreed to remove them once xserver 1.6 is uploaded to unstable. That means there is no reason to keep them around anymore.

Confirmed. I get the sense no users are using these packages anyway.
