WARNING

=======

This is a fork of the original nvmetcli project. The upstream project has not
4+
been updated in years and it depends on python2, which makes it very hard to
5+
install on Debian 13.

I forked https://git.infradead.org/?p=users/hch/nvmetcli.git, which has also a
8+
mirror on Github: https://github.com/hreinecke/nvmetcli)
9+
10+
Then I:
11+
- Hacked the Debian control file to make it installable on Debian 13
12+
- Added a Dockerfile to build the .deb a docker image
13+
- Minor modifications to make it work on Python3 with Debian's configshell_fb
14+
- Applied the remove_six.patch from SuSE by Matej Cepl to remove 'six' module
15+
16+
