Bug#945271: python-ipcalc: Oprhaning package
Package: python-ipcalc Version: 1.99.0-3.1 Severity: important Hi community, I'm going to orphan this package. TL;DR I'm fine to have this package removed from the debian project. IMHO it's dead and will not come back to life. sshfp is the only package having python-ipcalc as a dependency, but this code has been touched last time 2015. So it is pure python2 and will probably be also removed soon. I don't recommend to use python-ipcalc for any projects. It is old and having all the drawbacks you have when maintaining python2 and python3 support at the same time. Also upstream is looking dead. There are open issues since years and there was only one commit in the last two years.
