[Bug 2048766] Re: Please remove dmraid from the Ubuntu archive

[Steve Langasek]

Please cross check with the subiquity folks that this is *actually*
obsolete. The last I knew, it implemented support for firmware-assisted
software raid systems that were not supported by mdadm.

** Changed in: dmraid (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete

Title:
  Please remove dmraid from the Ubuntu archive

Status in dmraid package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in dmraid package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  It got dropped from Debian due to being obsolete and dead upstream. An
  alternative seems to be "mdadm".

  We're still tracking it in Ubuntu "main" as part of the live-common seed and an Ubiquity Recommends.
  The Ubiquity installer is depecrated, though. So we should consider dropping dmraid from main.
