Source: libpam4j
Severity: serious

Hello,

I just came across libpam4j while handlinge CVE-2017-12197 and I noticed
that:
- the package has not seen an update since 2012
- the package has no reverse dependency in Debian
- upstream seems to have disappeared (the current Homepage URL is dead
  and I could not find any other upstream code repository)

So I would suggest to drop this package from Debian. If you agree, please
reassign the bug to ftp.debian.org and retitle it into "RM: libpam4j --
ROM; unmaintained, no reverse dependency"

Thank you.
