ITA: I intend to adopt the cachefilesd package.

cachefilesd is a userspace daemon that manages the FS-Cache backend
for caching remote filesystem data (e.g., NFS). Despite being recently
orphaned, it remains relevant in system infrastructure, and I plan to
maintain it actively. My goals include updating the packaging,
ensuring compatibility with modern kernels and systemd, and improving
documentation and test coverage where applicable.

Hi,

I am continuing work on adopting the cachefilesd package, which
remains orphaned. My original ITA (#1109303) was closed prematurely.
Best regards,
