Thank you for the report. I could not see a more recent URL.

Perhaps we should link to

According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gummiboot_%28software%29 the new home is:

Since it was merged with systemd, I don't think it's appropriate to link systemd homepage there. However, I don't really want to decide here, so I've moved it to maintainer-needed.
