Hi Alex,
Thanks for your reply. I didn't know Inactive-Upstream was part of the
enum. I'll update and send a v2 in the morning.
I hear the concerns about adding packages that aren't actively maintained.
I also agree with the sentiment you raise regarding the broader context of
downstream
The patches are taken from Fedora, and so aren't backports. Should be
marked Inactive-Upstream rather.
I would only add it back if it has real consumers or use cases that
can't be fulfilled by maintained alternatives. Otherwise, anyone can
carry it privately,
Alex

While other packages offer similar functionality (e.g. dasbus), they are not
