#1002847 affects nttcp since start of 2022. It is not in bookworm.

The maintainer (tach@) is MIA since 2013.
The last upload was in 2012.

The upstream is gone since 2008 at least:
  nttcp (1.47-11) unstable; urgency=low
    * Add about upstream no longer exists to copyright text
       (closes: #455986)
      - Remove debian/watch file
   -- Taku YASUI <[email protected]>  Sun, 20 Apr 2008 23:11:32 +0900

The results are either nonsensical:
  $ ./nttcp.amd64 -T szarotka
       Bytes  Real s   CPU s Real-MBit/s  CPU-MBit/s   Calls  Real-C/s   CPU-C/s
  l  8388608    0.06    0.01   1132.7729   8924.0511    2048  34569.49  272340.4
  1  8388608    0.07    0.02    961.3073   3528.7025    2808  40223.46  147649.6
(there is a 1Gbps ethernet link to szarotka)
because the default I/O buffer size is 4k,
or just broken outright:
  $ ./nttcp.amd64 -l $((1024*1024)) -T szarotka
       Bytes  Real s   CPU s Real-MBit/s  CPU-MBit/s   Calls  Real-C/s   CPU-C/s
  l2147483648   17.35    0.80    990.4323  21394.8998    2048    118.07    
2550.5
  1-2147483648   17.37    4.66    988.8967   3689.3844  237576  13675.20   
51019.5

The package is obsoleted by src:iperf
(which is in main and not non-free, as an added bonus).
I suppose iperf doesn't have "PID throughput":
  $ ./nttcp.amd64 -R 1234567 szarotka
  nttcp.amd64-l: pid-rate (from 1234567 calls): 2903579/s
  nttcp.amd64-1: pid-rate (from 1234567 calls): 1830803/s
but. We can live without it.

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:

     nttcp |    1.47-13 | source, amd64

------------------- Reason -------------------
RoQA; RC-buggy, not in bookworm, obsolete, dead upstream, unmaintained, bad 
results, broken, superseded by iperf
----------------------------------------------

Note that the package(s) have simply been removed from the tag
database and may (or may not) still be in the pool; this is not a bug.
The package(s) will be physically removed automatically when no suite
references them (and in the case of source, when no binary references
it).  Please also remember that the changes have been done on the
master archive and will not propagate to any mirrors until the next
dinstall run at the earliest.

Packages are usually not removed from testing by hand. Testing tracks
unstable and will automatically remove packages which were removed
from unstable when removing them from testing causes no dependency
problems. The release team can force a removal from testing if it is
really needed, please contact them if this should be the case.

We try to close bugs which have been reported against this package
automatically. But please check all old bugs, if they were closed
correctly or should have been re-assigned to another package.

Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed.  If you
have further comments please address them to [email protected].

a problem with it please contact the archive administrators by mailing
