• Bug#1069153: RM: aufs -- RoQA; FTBFS since 2020, not part of bullseye,

    Hi,

    I request removal of aufs from Debian unstable for the following
    reasons:
    * FTBFS since 2020
    * Alternative overlayfs exists
    * No maintainer upload since 2019
    * Dead upstream: https://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123938442923108
    * aufs-tools also being removed: #1069146

    I support as maintainer the removal. I am sorry that I orphaned the package and did not take care to ask for removal myself.

    Best,
    Jan Naumann
