Package: garmin-forerunner-tools Version: 0.10repacked-10+b1 Severity: normal
As the maintainer address is no longer functional (see #899519), I'm sending it (also) directly to the listed maintainers. Hopefully that's not (too) inappropriate. I recently bought a Garmin Forerunner 645 Music and found this package, but noticed several issues on its package tracker page, https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/garmin-forerunner-tools. - As listed above and in #899519, the maintainer address no longer works. - The upstream web homepage is listed as http://garmintools.googlecode.com/ but that gives a 404. There is one that works (https://code.google.com/archive/p/garmintools/) but that's purely an archived version, so not very useful either. Through some detours I found that https://github.com/jorgesca/garmintools is now listed as the new upstream. But other then an import of that same code, there isn't much/any difference. It does contain the original issues though, which does seem useful. Searching on GitHub (https://github.com/search?q=garmintools) I found several others and looking through various of them, it looks like https://github.com/phako/garmintools is the one with various new commits added to them, most recently on 2018-02-23. OTOH it also contains a commit removing HURD ifdefs. I could of course create yet another repo and cherrypick various commits from various repos, but that'll create https://xkcd.com/927/. - The VCS Browse URL points to https://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-running/garmin-forerunner-tools.git;a=summary but when opening that page you get a message that alioth is discontinued. I tried searching on https://salsa.debian.org/ but couldn't find garmin-forerunner-tools or pkg-running. - I did find https://alioth-archive.debian.org/git/pkg-running/ which contains an archived copy of pkg-running and its sub-repos, including the repo for this package. Looking through https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?email=pkg-running-devel%40lists.alioth.debian.org it looks like the other pkg-running packages are in a similar, not so great, state but I hope there's still interest in improving things :).
