Hi, I will need some "zombie-telnetlib" (so exactly the same API as existing telnetlib) because I maintain proprietary .deb (not "Debian packages") that need to be installable without rebuild on Buster, Bookworm & Trixie.
I understand that "telnetlib3" / "exscript" are 'better/newer' API but that does not fit the need. Debian could also benefit from this zombie-telnetlib. Should it be a native package or one with real upstream on PyPi ?
