Source: recover Version: 1.3c-11 Severity: normal The code for the "recover" package seems to come from the pre-devfs days as seen on #98588. Now we are using udev. Upstream sf.net page doesn't even have accessible tarball nor meaningful contents. So this high risk functionality package (possible data corruption) has completely dead and unmaintained upstream. (The last upload to Debian was [2006-09-24])
http://recover.sourceforge.net/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/recover/files/ (nothing) FYI: This bug report was prompted by the recent removal of similar e2undel http://bugs.debian.org/731316 Most of the discussion there seems to apply here. The core functionality is available in debugfs (from the "e2fsprogs" package) anyway via "list_deleted_inodes" and "undel" and debugfs is very well maintained. If you agree that the recover should be removed, please reassign this bug as a removal request to ftp.debian.org. FYI: I am removing entry in Debian Reference for this package and adding note on debugfs. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.12-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
