--- Begin Message ---Package: apmd Version: 3.2.2-15+b2 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable Hi! The daemon's init script has the following line: apm_available || exit 0 which makes it always silently fail, as apm_available contains: .--==== #!/bin/sh -e if [ "$@" ]; then echo "Usage: $0" exit 2 fi # APM support was removed from kernel 2.6.40 in 2011. exit 1 `---- The comment is untrue: [/tmp/linux-4.15.4/debian]$ sgrep APM ./config/i386/config:CONFIG_APM=m ./config/armhf/config:CONFIG_APM_EMULATION=y but regardless whether APM still works or not, the daemon will not.

--- Begin Message ---Version: 3.2.2-15+rm src:apmd was last released with Debian 9 (stretch) in June 2017 and was removed from the Debian archive afterwards. See https://bugs.debian.org/920729 for details on the removal. After regular security support for stretch ended in July 2020 and LTS support ended in July 2022, I'm closing the remaining bug reports now. Andreas
