fwiw, all of the other packages for rcs-blame are using my updated version:

https://software.opensuse.org/package/blame
https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/tree/devel/blame/
https://github.com/NetBSD/pkgsrc/devel/blame/
https://github.com/openbsd/ports/devel/blame/

(oddly, no one packages rcshist, which I use as often).

Actually I use my own package for rcs (with a fix for a longstanding
bug in that program as well as keyword changes for xterm, lynx, and mawk).

So I wouldn't be counted in popcon (I opted out anyway).
