Package: psensor-server Version: 1.1.5-1.3 Severity: minor Dear maintainer,
psensor-server recommends hddtemp which is going to be removed from the archive. hddtemp is a software from another age that will not be shipped with Debian Bookworm release [1]. However it could be easily replaced by the drivetemp kernel module (available since kernel 5.6) which uses the same hwmon interface as for NVME drives and other systems sensors and is supported by lm-sensors. It does not require any privileged, as opposed to hddtemp which runs as a daemon or a setuid binary. psensor-server currently recommends hddtemp, and it also depends on the libsensor5 library from lm-sensors, offering an easy transition. It also depends on libatasmart4 which provide an alternative way to read ATA drive temperatures. Therefore the fix is therefore to drop the hddtemp recommends and update the package description accordingly. Note that recommends do not affected installability, so there is no urgency in doing so, but it should eventually be dropped.
