And xv I havn't found at all in the packages database :-/

I can only vaguely recall xv. what is it?

John Bradley's image viewer program. Probably frowned upon
by Debian for being non-free, but I registered my copy years
ago so I feel entitled to keep using it ;)

oh yeah. not in deb.

Then why is Debian trying to remove it if ti isn't a package?
Could it be trying to remove another thing called xv, which I think is
some X thing relating to video?
