    writes patterns on magnetic media to thwart data recovery

todo

  • Lintian reports 5 warnings about this package. You should make the package lintian clean getting rid of them.
  • The package should be updated to follow the last version of Debian Policy (Standards-Version 4.6.2 instead of 3.9.5).

problems

  • The package is severely out of date with respect to the Debian Policy. Latest version is 4.6.2 and your package only follows 3.9.5...
  • There were override disparities found in suite unstable:
    • scrub: Override says utils - optional, .deb says utils - extra
  • The package has a debian/watch file, but the last attempt to use it for checking for newer upstream versions failed with an error:
    In debian/watch no matching files for watch line   https://github.com/chaos/scrub/releases .*/scrub-([\d\.]+)\.tar\..*
