+----------------------------------+------------+-----------+------------------+ I see a couple of packages above listing me as the maintainer, but for some reasons I don't appear below. I am aware of a few of the above I'm listed against that my deps no longer requre (eg passwd) but I hadn't got around to working out what else depended on them to retire without possibly breaking something else, overall happy for them to be retired as part of the mass retirement if there's no other deps. There's also some that are deps on things still in progress like rust-rustls-pki-types (rhbz 2272351 has dep details), not sure how to tag those so I don't have to do more work to repackage them.
