Package: debsums
Version: 3.0.2
Severity: minor

The debsums package Depends on ucf, but since commit
https://salsa.debian.org/perl-team/modules/packages/debsums/commit/718bb9e32ae7488c05cbb0403c6ead5f741d434f
(released as part of version 2.2.5) all usage of ucf has been removed
from the package. AFAICT, when ucf was last used by the package, it was
solely to handle removal of a config
file, /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/90debsums, that was removed from the package
nearly a decade ago in 2012. Would it now be appropriate to drop this
dependency?
