Compatibility packages are generally provided for specific reasons including old packages which depend on them. So distributions would vary on these, depending on which versions of software they ship if they ship it at all in the first place. It is not very useful to request a random old library without explaining what benefit it provides. I am unlikely to be interested in doing this, anyway.
