Main Inclusion Report for sourcepackage

Requirements

1. Availability: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/k/kexec-tools; available for all supported architectures or some subset ? Currently ftbfs on ppc. Will fix.

2. Rationale:

   • Required for crashdump spec

3. Security:

   • entries: None

   • Secunia history: None

   • Any binaries running as root or suid/sgid ? Any daemons ? No
   • Network activity: does it open any port ? Does it handle incoming network data ? No
   • Any source code review performed ? Have done some work with code, seems clean, but does touch kernel memory, so it's pretty scary by nature.

4. Quality assurance:

   • In what situations does the package not work out of the box without configuration ? N/A
   • Does the package ask any debconf questions higher than priority 'medium' ? No

   • Debian bugs: No major bugs

   • Maintenance in Debian calm

   • Upstream: No known upstream. Maintained by distros
   • Hardware: Does this package deal with hardware and if so how exotic is it ? No

5. Standards compliance:

   • FHS, Debian Policy compliance ? Yes

   • Debian library packaging guide standards compliance ? Yes

   • Packaging system (debhelper/cdbs/dbs) ? Patch system ? Any packaging oddities ? Uses debhelper and dpatch. Nothing odd about the build system.

6. Dependencies:

   • Build: debhelper (>= 4.0.0), dpatch, gnu-efi (>=3.0a-4) [ia64]

   • Binary: libc6
   • Are these all in main ? Yes

7. Background information:

   • The general purpose and context of the package should be clear from the package's debian/control file. If it isn't then please explain.
   • What do upstream call this software ? Has it had different names in the past ? Same name. No other aliases.
