Hi Moritz! Yes, i uploaded it to salsa.d.o and i am waiting for Frontdesk aproval to become DD (that should happens in a few days) in order to upload it myself instead of asking for sponsorship. Its new home is here: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/ganglia. Thanks, Marcos El vie, 11-09-2020 a las 21:04 +0200, Moritz Mühlenhoff escribió: > Are you still interested in adopting ganglia?

Why pkg-security? It doesn't seem related to the team's purpose. I can create you repositories in the "debian" namespace if you want but I'd rather not add random packages to the pkg-security team...

Hi Marcos, I overlooked this in my inbox..

Do you have a plan how to deal with the plugins in Python 2? Will you port them yourself or rather drop them? Packaging it under the pkg-security umbrella feels a little off/odd, but if you think Ganglia is still useful in 2020 and want to adopt it and fix the bugs, sure please go ahead :-) Cheers, Moritz
Bug#964399: Should ganglia be removed?
Hello Moritz I did some work time ago on ganglia [1] but i never get this work published due to unactive/unresponsive uploaders. I also done some work on ganglia-web and ganglia-linux-modules packages (also unpublished). I believe that it is still a good piece of software that deserve its place on Debian so i would like to step up as uploader (co-uploaders welcome!) if needed. I also would like to maintain it under pkg-security team umbrella. Please, let me know your thoughs.

Source: ganglia Severity: serious Should ganglia be removed? It's dead upstream (last commits from over three years ago, last release from 2015), is now orphaned (last active maintainer is no longer a DD, but wasn't very actively maintained to begin with, the current packaged version is from 2013), most of the plugins depend on Python 2, there's unfixed security issues dating back to 2013 and doesn't even support ipv6 (730257). Unless anyone steps up for maintenance (and partly becomes upstream), it should better be removed. Cheers, Moritz
