No, it's to remove the packages that have problems, that requires dependencies 
that are badly broken (transcode 0.6 is a pain to manage, does not work with 
GCC4 and it's not easily fixable, and upstream moved to transcode 1), that 
requires maintenance and nobody can give it, and that might be replaced by 
other programs with way less troubles...

If you want to maintain that, no need for it to be removed... atm it's going 
to be unmaintained in the tree, full of problems, and requires us to not plan 
of dropping transcode 0.6.
