claim seems to be unmaintained.

[vidhanio]

claim is unmaintained, and the maintained version is called claims. The developer of claim has not responded to calls to bump the version of autocfg it is pinned at, causing many conflicts with other dependencies.

Thanks for the contribution -

Normally we require an issue / communique in the repo / otherwise with maintainer explicitly checking the maintanence status re: potentially fixing any security fixes - I however know the maintainer is completely unreachable so we cna shorten the regular 90 day period I think.

Would you like to send a PR for this ?

For this a template can work:
https://github.com/rustsec/advisory-db/blob/main/crates/ansi_term/RUSTSEC-2021-0139.md

I believe there is at least one possible alternative fork to direct users to by @mattwilkinsonn

• update autocfg dependecy version, for no conflicts svartalf/rust-claim#9 (comment)

EDIT: I've also raised issue in the repo to ping the maintainer.

Can this issue not be closed as per PR #1521 ?

[pinkforest]

Yes, PR's usually contain Closes or Fixes #x but in case have to close manually. Thanks!
