Bug#1055839: RM: dhis-server -- RoQA; dead upstream, orphaned, replacements exists, probably security buggy

[Chris Hofstaedtler <zeha@debian.org>]

Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: ftp.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: remove
X-Debbugs-Cc: dhis-server@packages.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:dhis-server

Dear ftpmasters,

please remove dhis-server, which is the server component of "DHIS",
supposedly a dynamic DNS update service. Its orphaned in Debian and
unmaintained for a lot longer, and upstream is gone too. The homepage
apparently has been taken over by some other project doing something
similar.

A cursory glance at the code suggests that running this code on a
network is not a great idea, security-wise.

I'll file a separate bug about the client code in a moment.

Thanks,
Chris
