Which is my whole point.
Then this is a bug in roaraudio / dnprogs, not cmus.
No one denies that. However, the problem is that the ROAR people
refuse to drop DECnet support and hence Ron asked in [1] to
drop ROAR audio support.
As James Cowgill already stated: it is not true that I declined it.
The ROAR developers and maintainers refuse to do that which is
why we should drop it from cmus. They, for some reason, think
it's important to support a pre-historic networking protocol.
I found this bug:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=675014
Which was closed with the message "Go away, I don't care."
Where? Could you quote it from the report? Philipp changed a few things
so that no one has to install the more dangerous dnet-common package and
kindly asked if he could help him.
This is the newer one:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=755934
Which is, again, ignored.
Which is another issue and not ignored, it is on my TODO list.
