Package: golang-k8s-kms

This package was last uploaded on 2026-07-16 with upstream code (orig.tar)
from 2025-09-01. It has no reverse dependencies in Debian testing, see
dak output at the end of this e-mail.
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/golang-k8s-kms
Having golang-*-dev packages in testing, and consequently the next
stable release, has a QA cost. These packages normally have no use
for Debian users, but are intended for building other Debian packages
that rely on them. No package in Debian testing rely on this package.
This bug is filed to trigger discussion if the package is still useful
to keep in Debian testing, and also (when no discussion occurs after
one month) trigger testing autoremoval of the package.
Please don't take this as disrespect of the amount of work that went
into the upstream code, or its packaging -- this bug report is part of
a QA effort to remove 100+ unused golang-*-dev packages. The QA cost
associated with keeping all the packages in testing is assumed to be
larger than the cost to (hopefully rarely) have some discussion,
re-evaluation and closing of this bug report, if there is ever any
reasonable need to keep this package in testing.
If you discover this bug report when doing QA work on this package,
please consider avoid doing any QA upload, and instead evaluate if the
package still has any use in Debian, and consider re-assigning this to
a ftp-master RM bug to finally trigger removal of it.

ssh mirror.ftp-master.debian.org dak rm -Rn -s=testing golang-k8s-kms
Will remove the following packages from testing:
golang-k8s-kms | 0.33.4-2 | source
golang-k8s-kms-dev | 0.33.4-2 | all

Hi,
Thanks for the QA effort.
Please keep golang-k8s-kms in testing. It is about to gain a reverse
dependency: the new upstream release of golang-k8s-apiserver (0.36.4),
which I'm currently packaging as part of the Kubernetes 0.36.4 bump,
build-depends on and depends on golang-k8s-kms-dev.
Closing on that basis.
Thanks,
Arthur Diniz
