Dear Magnus,
 
I suggest removing libdkim from Debian for the following reasons:

 * Dead upstream
 * security concern since it allows trivially factorable keys to produce
   apparently valid signatures (see bug #893461)
 * There are nearly no votes in popcon
   
https://qa.debian.org/popcon-graph.php?packages=libdkim1d&show_vote=on&want_legend=on&want_ticks=on&from_date=&to_date=&hlght_date=&date_fmt=%25Y-%25m&beenhere=1
 * Vcs fields point to inaccessible SVN
 * Last upload 9 years ago
 
This bug serves as a pre-removal warning. After one month, the bug will be
reassigned to ftp.debian.org to actually request removal of the package.
 
In case the package should be removed from unstable, you may reassign this
bug report:
 
    Control: severity -1 normal
    Control: retitle -1 RM: libdkim -- RoM; Potentially insecure, dead upstream
    Control: reassign -1 ftp.debian.org
    Control: affects -1 + src:libdkim
 
Alternatively, you may wait a month and have it reassigned.
 
In case you disagree with the above, please add a wontfix tag to this bug.
 
    Control: tags -1 + wontfix
 
This package was highlighted in the Bug of the Day[3] initiative, which
aims to introduce newcomers to manageable tasks and guide them through
the workflow to solve them. The focus of this initiative is on migrating
packages to Salsa, as it's a great way to help newcomers become familiar
with a consistent Git-based workflow.
 
Kind regards
   Andreas.
