Bug#957029: ax25mail-utils: ftbfs with GCC-10
> The last commit for ax25mail-utils was back in late December 2019 and April
> 11th 2020 for Linpac so I wouldn't call these as "very much dead upstream".
Hi David,
thanks for the feedback!
I was glancing at the SF.net repo for ax25mail-utils but thought I had
seen the last commit in 2018. Sorry for being sloppy there.

Best general practice would be to see a new regular release in the
form of a tarball.
Do you think you can resolve the gcc 10 issues (-fcommon is the
default now) and put up a new release we can package?
On the linpac side, I see Debian hasn't even picked up the last 0.25
release yet. I'll see to upload that soonish.
(Sorry, we have a lot of old dust in the hamradio team we have to work
on removing, and I don't think anyone in the team has an overview over
all the packages we curate, so please excuse my not so well-founded
assessment of your utilities.)
