Source: libnsbmp
Severity: serious
Hello,
libnsbmp has not seen a maintainer upload ever since its addition to
Debian in 2009.
Recently two CVE [1] have been reported against this package and I wonder
why we have this package in Debian at all.
[1] https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/source-package/libnsbmp
There are no reverse dependencies, maybe netsurf used this library at some
point but that seems to no longer be the case.
If you agree with me please clone this bug against ftp.debian.org and
retitle it as "RM: libnsbmp -- ROM; unused library package".
In the mean time I file this as severity serious so that the package gets
dropped from testing given its unmaintained state.
Thank you!

------------------- Reason -------------------
RoQA; unused library package, unmaintained, has security issues
----------------------------------------------
Note that the package(s) have simply been removed from the tag
database and may (or may not) still be in the pool; this is not a bug.
The package(s) will be physically removed automatically when no suite
references them (and in the case of source, when no binary references
it). Please also remember that the changes have been done on the
master archive and will not propagate to any mirrors until the next
dinstall run at the earliest.
Packages are usually not removed from testing by hand. Testing tracks
unstable and will automatically remove packages which were removed
from unstable when removing them from testing causes no dependency
problems. The release team can force a removal from testing if it is
really needed, please contact them if this should be the case.
We try to close bugs which have been reported against this package
automatically. But please check all old bugs, if they were closed
correctly or should have been re-assigned to another package.
Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed. If you
have further comments please address them to [email protected].

This message was generated automatically; if you believe that there is
