[Bug 1521984] Re: [MIR] s390-tools

[Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre]

Some observations:
 - [Maintenance] The Debian packaging could certainly use some cleaning up / modernizing.
 - [Maintenance] It would be nice to see the patches being tagged, at least with a description.
 - [Maintenance] There are a few bugs open in Debian BTS, some with patches that could easily be applied (such as debian #711703)
 - [Security] Many binaries trigger a lintian warning: hardening-no-fortify-functions.
