--- Begin Message ---Package: ftp.debian.org Severity: normal I am one of the last maintainers of the kedpm package, and I am not using it anymore. Recently, a security issue was found in the package (#860817), and I feel there may be more - I haven't deeply audited the source code myself. Or if I did, it was a long time ago, and I can no longer vouch for it. So please, remove kedpm from Debian sid. I'll take care of updating the packages in stable/LTS but let's put this thing out of its misery. For the record, fpm2, from which kedpm derives, was also removed from Debian stretch. Note that kedpm is the software in Debian that can parse "figaro" password databases.

--- Begin Message ---We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following package(s) have been removed from unstable: kedpm | 1.0 | source, all kedpm-gtk | 1.0 | all ------------------- Reason ------------------- ROM; inactive upstream, unmaintained, 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]. The full log for this bug can be viewed at https://bugs.debian.org/861277 This message was generated automatically; if you believe that there is a problem with it please contact the archive administrators by mailing [email protected].
