This might also be of interest to package/maintain/integrate: https://github.com/Drive-Trust-Alliance/sedutil I saw a comment about the --security arguments to hdparm being somewhat unreliable.

Re: hdparm needs a new maintainer
Hi, >igimenez@debian:~/debian/hdparm$ gbp buildpackage --git-ignore-new [...] running debsign failed yes, you have to sign them. By default the key is searched with a match on the debian/changelog last entry. You can override it by exporting export DEBEMAIL='youremail' export DEBFULLNAME='name surname' export DEBSIGN_KEYID='key fingerprint' export DEB_SIGN_KEYID='key fingerprint' on your bashrc file. this way you can sign with no issues and your key changes file with a signature from somebody else (e.g. your sponsor will have to do it) cheers, G.

This is normal for Debian packages. Add '-us -uc' to the gbp command-line options to skip signing.
Re: hdparm needs a new maintainer
Excellent point Ginfranco That will help me for sure when I had all the changes on package ready to upload. I was trying to build it for testing purposes, so as my very much appreciated debian mentor told me, adding the options -us -uc would suffice.

Re: hdparm needs a new maintainer
Hi For me it is ok, I am just a newbie in packaging. I have received help from a debian mentor Anibal Montalve Salazar < ani...@debian.org>, but I got no references for gbp (yet another Debian packaging toolchain ? ) what is exactly a collab-maint repository, a Git repo for the package host somewhere ? I am ok with whatever, Plz go ahead creating the repo (if have permissions).

Re: hdparm needs a new maintainer
Hi I would like to help. I am an experienced software developer (C/C++) but have no experience in packaging. I don't know if hdparm is hard to package for a newbie mantainer, so If someone can mentor me on that part I would gladly adopt the package.

hdparm needs a new maintainer
Hello, hdparm is a popular package which has been recently orphaned (see #816168). It provides an udeb so it might be needed/useful in the context of debian-installer too. There are multiple reverse dependencies too. There are 4 RC bugs against it and a new upstream release waiting to be packaged. It would be nice if some people could take over the package and bring it back to shape. Ccing debian-mentors since new contributors are likely to follow that list. https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/hdparm The package description is: Get/set device parameters for Linux SATA/IDE drives. Primary use is for enabling irq-unmasking and IDE multiplemode.
