I didn't know this plan before,I can't get this info from the RFA
bugreport of eject(#924444).

become more better.

The eject upstream git repo is [1],from the log ,I know the lasted
commit[2] is on Aug 21 21:42:30 2019.

Is this a dead-upstream?

I'd read the bug #737658,from this bugreport,I learned more info about
udeb,d-i,etc.  :-)

IMHO,I had a little worry about commands: volname and
dmcrypt-get-device(suid).

volname is still used by dkopp[3].

After the replace plan finished,Are these two commands will disappear in
Debian 11 ?

If has one shell scripts used these two commands in Debian 10,when the
OS update to Debian 11,

Do the shell scripts need to modify?How to modify?
