People who are interested in adopting orphaned packages might want to run
something like the script below to see the list of orphaned packges that are
installed on their system sorted by the packages' popcon scores. This may
help with deciding which package to adopt.
#!/bin/sh
MAINT=`(test -z "$1" && echo packages@qa.debian.org) || echo "$1"`
for x in `grep-status -F Maintainer "$MAINT" -n -s Package`; do
ept-cache show $x | grep-dctrl '' -n -s Popcon,Package | paste -sd '\t';
done | sort -nr
Note that you need to enable the popcon data provider for ept-cache for this
script to work.
Grüße,
Frank
