If Carlos is MIA then this package should be (at the very least), orphaned. I made an upload that added myself as a co-maintainer two years ago but no longer have access to an environment where I could test it[1]. This version of tac-plus is the reference implementation released by Cisco and has been unmaintained upstream since 2000. The Debian package also includes a number of questionable patches gathered from various places, and in general is in pretty bad shape. If no one steps forward, I believe it should be removed from the archive prior to the release of Lenny. Anyone considering adoption should consider basing the package off the fork available at: http://www.shrubbery.net/tac_plus/ [1] I should have removed myself as co-maintainer a long time ago to reflect reality. -- Eric Evans [EMAIL PROTECTED]
