Title:
  [MIR] libiscsi

Status in libiscsi package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Checking against
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuMainInclusionRequirements:

  1: libiscsi is already available in universe: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libiscsi
  =====

  2: Rationale:
  =====
  a) iSCSI has become the de-facto standard for connecting infrastructure servers to SAN/NAS storage
  b) qemu, which is already in main, depends on libiscsi for iscsi support:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu/+bug/1271573

  3: Security
  =====
  a) no entries found in CVE database
  b) no entries found in Secunia database
  c) no entries found in Ubuntu CVE tracker
  d) executable security:

  NO executables which have the suid or sgid bit set.
  NO executables in /sbin, /usr/sbin.
  NO packages which install daemons (/etc/init.d/*)
  NO packages which open privileged ports (ports < 1024).
  NO add-ons and plugins to security-sensitive software (filters, scanners, UI skins, etc)

  4: QA
  =====

  a) no configuration required - installs shared library and supporting
  tools for inquiring iSCSI portals and targets

  b) no debconf questions

  c) no long-term outstanding important bugs

  d) 
  Debian PTS: http://packages.qa.debian.org/libi/libiscsi.html
  * 4 lintian warning about missing manpages for 2 binaries in the support tools
  * 2 buildd log warnings
  * 1 bug that a newer upstream version is available

  Ubuntu
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libiscsi/+bugs
  * 1 NEW bug complaining that libiscsi doesn't work with multipath on EMC

  Upstream:
  * no open bugs: https://github.com/sahlberg/libiscsi/issues?page=1&state=open

  e) Maintenance in Debian/Ubuntu is acceptable. However, several newer upstream releases are available: https://sites.google.com/site/libiscsitarballs/libiscsitarballs/
  --> this needs to be fixed in Debian. Upstream development is very active.

  f) no exotic hardware

  g) test-tool is available, but not run during build because it
  requires a running iSCSI portal / target, which cannot be expected to
  be available on a build server

  h) debian/watch does *not* exist, but debian/copyright contains a link to github
  --> this needs to be fixed in Debian

  5.) UI standards: n/a
  =====

  6.) Dependencies:
  =====

  * shared library has no external dependencies except for libc6, and only build-deps on debhelper and libpopt-dev which are already in main
  * binaries depend on the shared library libiscsi1 which is created out of this source package, and libpopt0, which is already in main

  7.) Standards compliance
  =====
  No issues found except for missing man pages for the support tools and some minor buildd warnings, already mentioned in 4d)

  8.) Maintenance
  =====

  Debian maintenance seems to be OK, so syncing should be enough.

  9.) Background info
  =====
