[...] I asked to remove aimage from the archive because it was not maintained anymore. At this time, I sent a mail to the upstream author and he replied me that he had no more time to work on it anymore. A few days later, he decided to fix aimage, probably because that I was not the only one ask for it. I now understand, thanks for sharing this. This new version fixes #618087, am I right? I think that aimage have a place in Debian because there is no other command line tool that does the job. I use it all the time at work because a lot of our machine does not have a graphical interface. I do agree it still has a place in Debian if it is used and usable. The popcon figures [0] aren't very high but I guess it is normal for such a specialized tool. The actual package seems to work, I used it two time yesterday without any problem. Great, still need to be tested after the changes I have made (I had to reapply the patch which had been applied on the files directly rather than via a quilt patch). I'll look at copyright informations. The changelog should also mention that the package is back to Debian. Once you have been able to check all this again, I will be happy to upload it.
