Package: cruft Version: 0.9.38 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer !
I think, it's apparent, that cruft does not work at all... Most of the results are completely incorrect. Especially the "missing"-Section has no valid contents in ponderabel extents - but also the "unexplained"-section. Once again I have here - on two fresh dist-upgraded systems - many thousands of missing files. Is it prepared for the package "usrmerge" ? No need to mention, that most of the "missing" files all exist and the "unexplained" files are registered by dpkg... My call of cruft: #cruft --ignore "/root /home /mnt /proc /sys /Dummy /Schafott /Pax /dev /lost+found /opt /run /srv /tmp" -r ~/Cruft.report Whatever... Sorry, but in most of the debian-doks (especially the release-notes of each stable-release since many years) there are prominent recommendations to use this application (cruft & cruft-common). Since more than 10 years (felt) the debian-users waste their lifetime with this - at best - "sid"-package. Nothing justifies, that cruft finds it's way always into whatever is stable at the moment. Please be consequent and kick it out of the stable releases until it works (some day in a distant future)...
