Source: kmscon Version: 9.0.0-5.1 Severity: important X-Debbugs-CC: [email protected]
Dear package kmscon maintainer in Debian, After looking into the package you maintain (kmscon, https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/kmscon ), I found that this package received no maintainer updates in the past 2 years, missed the last Debian Stable release, and is not in good shape. As a result, I am filing an ITS (Intent to Salvage) request against your package according to section 5.12 in Debian's Developers' Reference [1]. My current plan is to switch to the new active upstream, https://github.com/kmscon/kmscon , add fixes as mentioned in https://bugs.debian.org/1116621 , fix RC bugs, and do initial preparations by observing Fedora's initiative at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/UseKmsconVTConsole . For details on the revival of kmscon project, please see https://github.com/Aetf/kmscon/issues/167 . Please let me know whether you are still willing to maintain this package. According to the criteria listed at [2], I will upload a Non- maintainer Upload (NMU) of this package onto DELAYED/7 after 21 days (Jan 22, 2026) to continue with the package salvaging. If you find it necessary to pause the ITS process, please let me know immediately by replying this bug report via email. If you find this ITS okay, please also let me know via email so that we can clear the countdown.
