I am currently reading. Yes, it smells bad.

Yes great. I'm not paid by package i maintain.
Do not misunderstand my intentions, this package is more often used
without gtk (subjective).
It's a really useful package for debugging network issues and got it
in a server is a plus.
Server => no gtk => no user repository packages. This was my reasoning.

But my plan was to propose to maintainer to maintain it in community.
If he don't have time, propose my services. If he don't want, never
mind.

If you see my comment on the package, fstrim will be included in next
release of util-linux-ng. So forget :)
