Description Jonas Stein gentoo-dev 2023-01-22 19:41:33 UTC
https://github.com/libfuse/sshfs officially announced that the project is orphaned now.

Bugs remain open now:
https://github.com/libfuse/sshfs/issues

There is a promising fork on
https://github.com/deadbeefsociety/sshfs
perhaps it is useful to pick patches.
Perhaps it will become the new upstream.

Should we add a information with einfo about the package status?
Comment 1 Yixun Lan archtester gentoo-dev 2023-01-23 11:14:44 UTC
the project has no development after May 2022, and became archived at Nov 2022

Looks good to add a einfo about the project status, but let's wait and see if we really need to switch HOMEPAGE & SRC_URI

For einfo, How about put something like this? (I haven't seen serious security bugs or did I miss anything?)
 sshfs is archived and has no development in upstream, please use it at your own risk!
