Dear fellow members of the Debian mentoring community.

I am one of the maintainers of [SUPER Android 
Analyzer](http://superanalyzer.rocks/), an application to check an Android APK 
application for vulnerabilities. The software has lots of potential and has 
been added to some software distributions. We recently received [a 
request](https://github.com/SUPERAndroidAnalyzer/super/issues/104) for SUPER to 
be included in a Debian-based distribution, and even if we provide packages 
built for Debian, we noticed that there already was a package named `super` in 
the Debian repositories.

We first thought of changing our package name to something other than `super`, 
but we then noticed that the package had not been updated in more than 9 years, 
and we thought it would make sense to ask if it was possible to replace it in 
Debian by our package. As a summary, our package is written in Rust and 
currently requires java-jre as a dependency, since it also packages some Java 
projects we currently use for the analysis. All the project and dependencies we 
redistribute are licensed under GPLv3.

I am new to packaging, and I did't know where to ask, or if this was even 
possible, so I'm asking this in the mentoring list. Any help is much 
appreciated, thanks in advance.

Best regards,



Iban Eguia
