Maintainer-filed, triaged feature request to add a DEP-11 metadata inspector so apt-downloaded DEP-11 YAML files are identified and annotated by fetch-service. Tracked internally as FETCH-34; no implementation exists in the repo.

Suggested action: keep open

Reason: Labeled 'Status: Triaged' by maintainer cmatsuoka, and a code search confirms no DEP-11 support exists: grep for 'DEP-11' across fetch-service source and commit messages returns no matches, so nothing has been implemented. The request is legitimate — the issue states 'DEP-11 metadata files are being downloaded by apt and not recognized by the Fetch Service' — and it sits alongside four sibling apt inspectors already present (apt.NewAptReleaseInspector, NewAptPackagesInspector, NewAptTranslationInspector, NewAptCommandsInspector in inspectors/inspectors.go) plus mimetypes.AptCommands, establishing a clear precedent. It should stay open rather than be closed: age (357 days) and lack of a linked PR are not grounds for closure. The only comment is an autogenerated Jira sync bot note referencing FETCH-34, which is not a GitHub ref and gives no design detail.
