Package: lilo
Severity: critical
Version: 1:24.2-5

I plan to orphan this package. It should not be included into next stable
release (bullseye). I am maintainer and developer of lilo, but have closed
development with version 24.2 in year 2016. Since this time some people
wanted to overtake development, but didn't do it after all.

Since some years the successor grub2 is stable enough to replace lilo.
And lilo code is very old and would have to be rewritten. The popularity
of lilo going down for many years (Vote: 87, Recent: 24)

Because of this items, I register a RC bug on the package to ensure it stay
out of bullseye. The Debian release team is informed.

Have a nice day.
