Package: src:archipel-core Severity: serious Hello, Debian is trying to remove Python 2 from the distribution (https://wiki.debian.org/Python/2Removal) and i stumbled across archipel.
It looks like this project is no longer maintained upstream: * https://github.com/ArchipelProject/Archipel latest commit is more than 3 years ago * the homepage http://archipelproject.org/ returns an error from cloudflare and the wayback machine can find an actual page only back in April 2018 * the mailing list https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/archipelproject has no new post (execpt to report the website down) since early 2016 Here below is a recapt of the status of the archipel packages: package last-upload popcon archipel-core 2013-05-05 47 archipel-agent-action-scheduler 2013-05-05 12 archipel-agent-hypervisor-geolocalization 2013-05-05 7 archipel-agent-hypervisor-health 2013-05-05 10 archipel-agent-hypervisor-network 2013-05-05 14 archipel-agent-hypervisor-platformrequest 2013-05-05 10 archipel-agent-iphone-notification 2013-05-05 17 archipel-agent-virtualmachine-oomkiller 2013-05-05 12 archipel-agent-virtualmachine-snapshoting 2013-05-05 13 archipel-agent-vmcasting 2013-05-05 9 archipel-agent-vmparking 2013-05-05 9 archipel-agent-xmppserver 2013-05-05 10 archipel-agent-virtualmachine-vnc 2013-05-05 13 It is my belief we should remove archipel* packages from Debian, in particular because they are a close-set of packages, and they could ideally allow other python2 packages to be removed (as archipel* will disappear as their reverse-dependencies). If i dont hear back in a week, i'll file RM bugs for all the aforementioned packages.
