Hi,

I would ask an opinion about what to do with packages that have invalid
SRC_URI (pointing to non-existent sources) and severe compilation problems.

I'm trying to fix ebuilds that lead to `repoman full` failures now, so
we will be able to have automatic repoman checks for pull requests. Some
ebuilds are really outdated and quite hard to fix (e.g. I tried to do
version bump for sci-physics/bigdft, but I failed as new version does
not compile and error is in fortran code, that I do not understand).

So what to do with such outdated not working stuff? As nobody makes
issues/bugs about it, I think, we can just remove unmaintained broken
packages from the overlay.
