Package: hobbit-plugins Version: 20201127 Severity: minor Dear maintainer,
hobbit-plugins suggests 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 privilege, as opposed to hddtemp which runs as a daemon or a setuid binary. hobbit-plugins currently suggests hddtemp to provide the optional feature of reporting drive temperatures. As it pokes at the /sys hwmon directory directly for the CPu temperature, you might consider doing the same for drives temperature using a path like: /sys/devices/pci*/*/ata*/host*/target*/*/hwmon/hwmon*/temp*_input Alternatively you might want to call the sensors binary (from lm-sensors) with -u (raw ouput) or -j (json output) and parse its output. Note that recommends do not affected installability, so it is not an issue if hddtemp is removed from the archived before this bug is fixed.
