Package: wmi-client
Severity: wishlist

Per bug 523638 ( http://bugs.debian.org/523638 ), wmi-cli was removed, but its
a useful package for those interacting with windows machine. My main use is for
backuppc backing up windows machines with shadow copy.

As there is still no samba4 package in debian and the upstream finally
release the winexe as GPL3 and seens to be trying to resync with
main samba4, maybe debian could re-add this package.

I just compiled the package and seems to work and many people would be
glad to be able to use this without compiling or using the ancient
static build that starts to give problems with new windows versions.
(compiled version works fine)
