Source: ganglia
Severity: serious

Should ganglia be removed? It's dead upstream (last commits from over three years ago,
last release from 2015), is now orphaned (last active maintainer is no longer a DD, but
wasn't very actively maintained to begin with, the current packaged version is from 2013),
most of the plugins depend on Python 2, there's unfixed security issues dating back to
2013 and doesn't even support ipv6 (730257).

Unless anyone steps up for maintenance (and partly becomes upstream), it should better
be removed.

Cheers,
        Moritz
