Thanks for this insight and explanation. If it is no longer usable standalone
then, I agree, we should remove the fork from ceres, freia, excalibur and
(probably daedalus). Amprolla will then merge Debian's library-only package in
its place.
tomcat9 | 9.0.31-1~deb10u12devuan1 | beowulf | source, all
tomcat9 | 9.0.43-3+devuan8 | chimaera | source, all
tomcat9 | 9.0.43-3+devuan9 | chimaera-proposed-updates | source
tomcat9 | 9.0.70-1devuan1 | daedalus | source, all
tomcat9 | 9.0.70-1devuan1 | excalibur | source, all
tomcat9 | 9.0.70-1devuan1 | freia | source, all
tomcat9 | 9.0.70-1devuan1 | unstable | source, all
tomcat9 | 9.0.107-0+deb11u1devuan1 | chimaera-proposed-updates | source, all
tomcat9 | 9.0.107-0+deb11u1devuan1 | chimaera-security | source, all
In other words, all the 9.0.70-1devuan1 versions will be unforked.
Are you both happy with that?
Mark
