I see. So should we remove etags and movemail? I think doxygen is
quite analogous to etags, although more complex. And etags is in the
core.
It all depends on how much work the maintainer wants to do. If
someone wants to maintain a doxygen.el package, and supply doxygen
with it, and address the problems of ensuring the necessary
dependencies are present on user machines, I don't see a problem with
that.
If it's that tough, then we'll have problems finding a maintainer
willing to do the work. So this will veto itself. If it doesn't, as
far as we're concerned it's just some more disk space. As far as
users are concerned, doxygen.el is useless without doxygen, so they
won't install the package if they're unwilling to install the
dependencies.
Am I missing something?
