Are you going to try it? What is your use case? What are you hoping to do with it?

I’ll be evaluating it as a potential default recommendation for new Linux users, and possibly daily driving on my personal home desktop (now Arch).

    It’s making the rounds on the Fediverse. Example. And the bugtracker shows this thread where the very first responses to the issue raised already promote leaking this data as a “feature”.

      Okay, so it’s a program you have to specifically install, not a library and not installed by default.

      Regardless, yeah it should not be doing that.

        I mean, it’s Debian. To a point I can understand it.

        And, from what I can get from the thread, it’s not really a problem that the package exists - rather that the software is packaged and distributed unpatched.
