The devfsd package could also use an NMU or two. It has apparently been
ignored by Tom Lee for months. Almost all of its bugs appear to be
fairly trivial, and he's only responded to one of the 11 open bugs (and
that response was three months ago).

I think that's insane. The installers are in contrib because they are
free software -- small installer programs -- which require non-free
software -- big useful non-free programs -- to run. They probably
should clean up after themselves when --purged, but I can see good
arguments against that as well.
