Package: wmhdplop Version: 0.9.11-2 Severity: normal Dear maintainer,
wmhdplop 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 privilege, as opposed to hddtemp which runs as a daemon or a setuid binary. wmhdplop currently recommends hddtemp to provide the optional feature of reporting drive temperatures. You might want to consider other alternative to provide that feature: - use of the libsensors5 library (from lm-sensors), which can report drive temperatures from ATA drives but also NVME drives. - use of the libatasmart4 library (ATA drives only) Note that recommends do not affected installability, so it is not an issue if hddtemp is removed from the archived before this bug is fixed.
