Package: wnpp Severity: normal The package cyclades-serial-client is designed to work with Cyclades terminal servers (which have not been manufactured for a while) and other devices using RFC 2217 (which probably includes some Cisco gear that's still in service).
It has a shared object that takes over library calls like tcsetattr(3) to implement a fake serial port. I haven't used this for years and don't have enough spare time to maintain it. I can assist if someone else wants to take it over.
