Package: overkill Version: 0.16-14 Severity: serious Justification: RC security bug, unmaintained upstream, low popcon (20 votes) User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: proposed-removal
overkill seems like a possible candidate for removal from Debian: * security-buggy (#549310, overflows a heap-allocated buffer when constructing outgoing network packets) * coding style suggests that many more overflow vulnerabilities are likely * declining popcon with only 20 votes * no upstream release since 2001 despite security vulnerabilities If you want to keep this package around in Debian, please just close this bug, and do an upload to fix the issues in it. In this package's case, I think this is likely to require becoming the (de facto) upstream maintainer. If you don't think it's worth keeping, please send the following commands to cont...@bugs.debian.org, replacing nnnnnn with this bug's number: severity nnnnnn normal reassign nnnnnn ftp.debian.org retitle nnnnnn RM: <packagename> -- RoM; <reasons> thanks For more information, see http://wiki.debian.org/ftpmaster_Removals http://ftp-master.debian.org/removals.txt Regards, smcv at the Cambridge BSP
