Package: ftp.debian.org Severity: normal Hi,
yui3 was uploaded in 2012 and never maintained since except one NMU by security team. I wrote a mail 1 year ago o the bazaar team which has the only one reverse dep (loggerhead), without any response [4]. yui3 has DFSG problem and should not stay as this in Debian archive (#788319). Here is the mail content that resumes other problems with this package: > yui3 package has many problems: > - Debian problems: > * RC/DFSG bug (#788319) > * never updated since old-old-stable (except a Security Team change) > * not released in stable, neither old-stable > * debian/watch points to a site now redirected to a GitHub repo that > builds a "yui" library [1] > - Consistency problems: > * "yui" npmjs package points to [1] > * "yui" npm module is "YUI 3: The Yahoo User Interface Library" > * our packages are named libjs*yui3* > * "yui3" npmjs package points to [2] with a very different content > than our > * [2] is a fork of [3] > * [1] seems unmaintained for 5 years > * [2] seems unmaintained for 8 years > * [3] seems unmaintained for 7 years > > yui3 is a reverse dependency of loggerhead: > * maintained by Bazaar Team > * not in stable, neither in testing (blocked by yui3 of course) > > loggerhead has no reverse dependencies > > So my question are: > * Does Bazaar Team wanted to maintain loggerhead in Debian? > => if no, please ROM-RM to permits our ROM-RM of yui3 > => if yes, does Bazaar Team want to maintain yui3 by itself? > * if yes, please go ahead > * if no: > - which yui repo is the good dependency of loggerhead > - does JS Team want to clean and maintain this? > (yadd advice is "**no**") > > [1]: https://github.com/yui/yui3 > [2]: https://github.com/davglass/nodejs-yui3 > [3]: https://github.com/yui/nodejs-yui3 [4]: https://alioth-lists.debian.net/pipermail/pkg-javascript-devel/2019-August/034865.html
