Package: postfix-policyd-spf-perl Version: 2.010-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
on first glimpse, this package seems an alternative to postfix-policyd-spf-python , The current version number 2.0.1-1 looks very similar. However, looking at the timeline of releases https://launchpad.net/postfix-policyd-spf-perl/ , it turns out that this is from 2012, and it seems that the perl implementation was abandoned in 2012, when pypolicyd-spf https://launchpad.net/pypolicyd-spf/ started, with 1.0, now having reached 2.0.1 by coincidence. pypolicyd-spf's changelog mentions an important protocol standard update in 2014. Perhaps the obsoleteness of this package should be clarified in its description? -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-042stab123.1 (SMP w/6 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968), LANGUAGE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages postfix-policyd-spf-perl depends on: ii adduser 3.115 ii libmail-spf-perl 2.9.0-4 ii libnetaddr-ip-perl 4.079+dfsg-1+b1 pn libsys-hostname-long-perl <none> ii perl 5.24.1-3 ii perl-modules-5.24 [libversion-perl] 5.24.1-3 ii postfix 3.1.4-7 postfix-policyd-spf-perl recommends no packages. postfix-policyd-spf-perl suggests no packages.
