Package: inetutils Severity: wishlist Hi!
I noticed that netkit-rsh is orphaned and there are even requests to remove it: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1041864 That is stalled because there are two reverse dependencies that allegedly uses: pdsh and pvm. I was thinking that the inetutils package could provide the rsh-client and rsh-server packages, allowing netkit-rsh to be removed from Debian. Currently the Debian packaging of inetutils doesn't build rsh/rshd though. What do you think? Some experiment would be needed to make sure pdsh/pvm (and their reverse dependencies) still build and work. It would help to analyze any differences between netkit and inetutils rsh and rshd too. /Simon
