[Bug 2073677] Re: Remove from oracular?

[Mitchell Dzurick]

I am helping fix bug
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dmraid/+bug/2047303 which made
me think about dropping this too.

My concern is that even if it's dead, people are still very clearly
using dmraid, and need it to boot in certain scenarios. It would suck
uru from Noble->PP and not be able to boot. This of course makes a
vicious cycle of "we don't want to break systems so we keep it forever".

In [0] the user mentioned trying mdadm to no success, which puts into
question the replacement for dmraid.

Title:
  Remove from oracular?

Status in dmraid package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in dmraid package in Debian:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  https://bugs.debian.org/1056944

  From Debian bug:
  RoQA; obsolete; dead upstream
  "as discussed in bugs #864423 and #1034188, dmraid is obsolete and shall
  not be shipped in trixie.
  "

  the delta for Ubuntu was related to kpartx-boot, now removed from multipath-tools
  https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/multipath-tools/0.9.9-1ubuntu1

  I uploaded a dmraid without that delta to ease removal of NBS kpartx-
  boot
