Bug Description
[Availability]
Package is available in Universe. Builds are green for all arches specified
[Rationale]
This is a request from Google as they utilize nvme-cli to manage nvme drives in their cloud. The package offers tools for managing nvme drives, including nvme over fabric (NVMEoF). NVMEoF is of particular interest as cloud providers build out with nvme drives.
[Security]
No current security advisories. Has been a part of Universe since Xenial, and shows supportability (the source in Github is updated with regularity [within 1 hour of me opening the page, with regular commits including 11 merged PRs in the past 30 days])
[Quality assurance]
Upstream bugs are tracked on the github repo: https:/
nvme-cli has been a part of Debian since stretch: https:/
[UI standards]
Autogenerated man pages for nvme commands and all subcommands (nvme-*)
Man pages are fleshed out with all options described.
[Dependencies]
libc6 (>= 2.14) [amd64]
GNU C Library: Shared libraries
also a virtual package provided by libc6-udeb
libc6 (>= 2.17) [arm64, ppc64el]
libc6 (>= 2.8) [armhf, s390x]
[Standards compliance]
nvmeexpress.org, the group maintaining the package, is a compliance organization. They include many major technology groups as members.
[Maintenance]
Foundations will subscribe to the package

Dimitri, you had expressed some concerns about destructive operations of the nvme-cli tools. Do you consider these blockers for Foundations supporting the package?
