Took bibexport.
mathmap seems to be dead upstream as a Gimp plugin, unfortunately. (It's
supposed to be turned into a web service...)
While it's a pitty to see it go away, pampering the "final" version in
Fedora appears to be futile.
And yes, I feel quite uneasy about this mass removal, too. I mean, it
affects even packages with comaintainers when the owner disappeared for
whatever reasons.
Unless I'm using a package already, I'd have to check what it does, what
state it is in etc. before taking ownership - but it's gone by that time
already, requiring much more "paperwork" to take over.
