Public bug reported: Binary package hint: debsecan
Debsecan should be removed from the Ubuntu repositories because it serves no purpose at this point. debsescan interfaces to the debian security tracker [1]. This is all well and good, but we have a different naming scheme for some packages, and a few diversions from upstream packages ( patches etc ) that cause this application to report bad data. This package is a very valuable resource, so I propose a diversion from Debian, and create a ubusecan tool that uses launchpadlib to work off our CVE reports. This would produce accurate output without having to translate upstream names to downstream package names and compensate for patches applied.
