Hi!
Would it be possible to unblock duperemove for stretch? It was uploaded 2¾
days before the 10-day deadline, but somehow it sat in NEW until now. Yeah,
it's our fault -- the ITP was worked on by multiple non-DDs, with large gaps
between any actions; when I finally intervened and forced the issue it was
close to the deadline, and ftpmasters don't operate on a FIFO.
Multiple people expressed interest in this package; I for one use it
heavily. Without it, those elebenty billion deduplicators we have in the
archive are mostly worthless -- all they can do is to notify the user or at
most hard- or symlink duplicates which tends to be a pretty bad idea
(modifying one of the copies tramples all others). On the other hand, BTRFS
(since kernel 3.13) and XFS (experimentally in 4.9) have in-kernel support
for CoW shared extents. That support needs an userspace tool.
Thus, it'd be nice if you allowed it in.

Sorry, but no. Your best bet now is stretch-backports, when it opens.
Thanks,
