iscsitarget disappeared?

[jaegermeister]

Hi,

today I was going to set my box up as an iSCSI target, but couldn't find the relevant package:

Code Select Expand


# apt-cache search iscsitarget
resource-agents - resource agent per cluster


So I told myself, maybe it's the repo fault, therefore I tried changing several repos, but still same effect.

It looks like the official release for sid is 1.4.20.3+svn502-2, as it appears from
https://packages.debian.org/sid/iscsitarget

And if I check on varoious repos pages it's not present:
http://debian.fastweb.it/debian/pool/main/i/iscsitarget/
http://mi.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/debian/pool/main/i/iscsitarget/
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/i/iscsitarget/

At the same time, no version of the package is present in incoming:
https://incoming.debian.org/debian-buildd/pool/main/i/

To make it worse, its dependency iscsitarget-dkms (which is btw not listed on the iscsitarget package page, though!!!) looks not even present in sid:
https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=iscsitarget-dkms

So, question is.... what the heck happened???

So bad news.
Any alternative?
