Package: xmule
Hello.
I want get rid of dpkg-divert usage in the amule package, and replace it
with update-alternatives. For this, I planned to send a patch for xmule
implementing the change, but when I had a look at the xmule package, I
noticed that is in a very sorry state: several RC bugs open for more
than a year, various releases behind upstream, ...
So I would like to know if either of you still has any interest in the
xmule package, and would fix the existing bugs, and perhaps update to a
new version, at the same time that applying my patch, or if not, if
you're okay with requesting removal from the archive. I need this as
opposed to letting the package rot because Policy prevents me from
making amule Conflict: xmule if it exists in the archive (and I can't
leave things as are now, because I want dpkg-divert to go away).
Thanks,
