Package: forensics-all Version: 1.6 Severity: important Hi,
the new forensics-all metapackage at version 1.6 pulls in grr-server. grr-server is the server side of an incident response framework. It is surely not meant for what forensics-all is meant according to the package description: > This package provides the core components for a forensics > environment. […] This metapackage includes the most programs to data > recovery, rootkit and exploit search, filesystems and memory > analysis, image acquisition, volume inspection, special actions over > the hardware and many other activities. […] This package is useful > for pentesters, ethical hackers and forensics experts. From my point of view, grr-server is surely wrong in this metapackage, not only because of its purpose but also because such a metapackage should never hard-depend on any packages which start daemons or server software. Please either move the dependency on grr-server to one of the other (maybe more fitting) forensic metapackages or at least downgrade the dependency to a "Recommends" if not "Suggests". Setting the severity to "important" as this makes this metapackage more or less unusable, at least IMHO. (Feel free to downgrade if you disagree.) -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (600, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'buildd-unstable'), (110, 'experimental'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'buildd-experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.11.0-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages forensics-all (1.5) depends on: ii aesfix 1.0.1-5 ii aeskeyfind 1:1.0-4 ii afflib-tools 3.7.15-1 ii bruteforce-salted-openssl 1.3.3-1 ii cewl 5.3-1 ii chaosreader 0.96-2 ii crack-md5 [crack] 5.0a-11 ii dc3dd 7.2.646-1 ii dislocker 0.6.1-7 ii ed2k-hash 0.3.3+deb2-3 ii ewf-tools 20140608-6+b2 ii exifprobe 2.0.1-11 ii ext3grep 0.10.2-3+b1 ii ext4magic 0.3.2-7 ii extundelete 0.2.4-1+b2 ii fcrackzip 1.0-8 ii forensics-colorize 1.1-2 ii galleta 1.0+20040505-8 ii gpart 1:0.3-3 ii grokevt 0.4.1-10 ii guymager 0.8.3-1 ii hashrat 1.8.7+dfsg-2 ii mac-robber 1.02-5 ii magicrescue 1.1.9-4 ii memdump 1.01-7+b1 ii metacam 1.2-9 ii missidentify 1.0-8 ii myrescue 0.9.4-9 ii nasty 0.6-3 ii outguess 1:0.2-8 ii pasco 20040505-2 ii pff-tools 20120802-5+b2 ii pipebench 0.40-4 ii plaso 1.5.1+dfsg-3 ii pompem 0.2.0-2 ii recoverdm 0.20-4 ii recoverjpeg 2.6.1-1 ii reglookup 1.0.1+svn287-6 ii rekall-core 1.6.0+dfsg-2 ii rephrase 0.2-2 ii rifiuti 20040505-1 ii rifiuti2 0.6.1-5 ii rkhunter 1.4.4-1 ii rsakeyfind 1:1.0-4 ii safecopy 1.7-2 ii scalpel 1.60-4 ii scrounge-ntfs 0.9-8 ii shed 1.15-3+b1 ii sleuthkit 4.4.0-5 ii ssdeep 2.13-3 ii steghide 0.5.1-12 ii tableau-parm 0.2.0-4 ii undbx 0.21-1 ii unhide 20130526-1 ii unhide.rb 22-2 ii vinetto 1:0.07-7 ii volatility 2.6-1 ii volatility-tools 2.6-1 ii winregfs 0.7-1 ii wipe 0.24-2 ii yara 3.6.2+dfsg-4 Versions of packages forensics-all recommends: ii hashdeep 4.4-4 Versions of packages forensics-all suggests: pn forensics-extra <none> pn forensics-extra-gui <none> pn forensics-full <none> -- no debconf information
