This package was put together by Guy Maor <maor@debian.org> and later

I think this is only the Debian package. 

There is a file in the util-linux tar-ball called MAINTAINER and it
says:

Maintainer: Andries Brouwer <aeb@cwi.nl>
Maintainer address: util-linux@math.uio.no

Maintainer of getopt: Frodo Looijaard <frodol@dds.nl>
Maintainer of simpleinit: Richard Gooch <rgooch@atnf.csiro.au>

That information refers to the people who assembled and maintain the
Debian package, not the upstream.

[OT] who's maintaining util-linux?

[Denis Vlasenko]

Hi folks,

I'm using util-linux and have some problems with them.
The biggest of promlems is that I am unable to contact
maintainers of said utils :-(   Are they maintained?
