Package: sensors-applet
Version: 3.0.0+git6-0.5
Severity: minor

Dear maintainer,

sensors-applet recommends hddtemp which is going to be removed from the
archive.

hddtemp is a software from another age that will not be shipped with
Debian Bookworm release [1]. However it could be easily replaced by the
drivetemp kernel module (available since kernel 5.6) which uses the same
hwmon interface as for NVME drives and other systems sensors and is
supported by lm-sensors. It does not require any privileged, as opposed
to hddtemp which runs as a daemon or a setuid binary.

sensors-applet currently recommends both hddtemp, and it also depends on
the libsensor5 library from lm-sensors, offering an easy transition.
Therefore the fix is therefore to drop the hddtemp recommends and update
the package description accordingly. Note that recommends do not
affected installability, so there is no urgency in doing so, but it
should eventually be dropped.

Regards,
Aurelien
