Package: golang-github-coredns-caddy
Severity: serious
Tags: sid forky
User: [email protected]
usertags: zombie-removal
This package was last uploaded on 2025-07-26 with upstream code (orig.tar)
from 2025-07-26. It has no reverse dependencies in Debian testing, see
dak output at the end of this e-mail.
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/golang-github-coredns-caddy
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.

Hi Simon,
Thanks for filing this as part of the zombie-removal QA effort.
Please keep golang-github-coredns-caddy in testing. While it currently
has no reverse dependencies in Debian testing, it is a build dependency
for the ongoing packaging of golang-github-coredns-corefile-migration,
which in turn is required for the Kubernetes packaging work in Debian.
golang-github-coredns-caddy is a direct dependency of
github.com/coredns/corefile-migration, so removing it now would only
mean it has to be re-introduced shortly. I'd therefore prefer to keep
it in testing rather than remove and re-add it.
I'm closing this bug accordingly. If the corefile-migration packaging
stalls and the dependency turns out not to be needed after all, we can
revisit removal at that point.
Thanks again for the QA work,
Arthur Diniz
