Control: retitle -1 Should mp3splt be removed from Debian?
Thanks
Hi,
as it turns out (see bug 1122255) this package has long standing open
security issues and it seems there is no active maintainer who cares for
this package. Under this circumstances I agree with Sebastian that this
package should possibly be removed from Debian if this will not be
fixed.
* It accumulated one RC-bug:
#1122255 mp3splt: unfixed CVEs from 2017
* The package has no reverse dependencies.
* There seems to be no active maintainer
Admittedly the package has quite some usage according to popcon
https://qa.debian.org/popcon-graph.php?packages=mp3splt&show_installed=on&show_vote=on&want_legend=on&want_ticks=on&from_date=&to_date=&hlght_date=&date_fmt=%25Y-%25m&beenhere=1
So finding someone with the capacity to fix the issues would be prefered
over removal.
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 kept in unstable, please evaluate the
RC-bug listed above.
* If the bug no longer applies, please close it. If it is closed, check
whether the fixed version is correct and adjust if necessary.
* Is the bug really release-critical? If not, please downgrade.
* If the bug still applies, please send a status update at least once a year.
Once the mentioned RC bug has been acted upon in one way or another,
please close this bug.
In case the package should be removed from unstable, you may reassign this
bug report:
Control: severity -1 normal
Control: retitle -1 RM: mp3splt -- RoM; rc-buggy
Control: reassign -1 ftp.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:mp3splt
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
Kind regards
Andreas.
