Hi Ian,
today psutils showed up with bug #1068303 on the randomly choosen Bug of
the Day[1] page. I inspected the list of bugs of psutils and I think
its easier to contribute to
#1002514 psutils: Please switch to new upstream
which I'm doing hereby with the attached watch file (since the current
watch file does not work any more). I'm happy you have put the upgrade
on your todo list[2] and hope you might find some time to work on this.
Some warning about the latest upstream version: At some point in time
upstream has switched from Perl (the packaged version) to Python (latest
upstream). I hope this will not create extra hassle.
I'm pretty sure you have some local (d)git repository of all your
packages. Unfortunately psutils is not yet on Salsa. It would be
really great if you would consider pushing your work to Salsa since
I'd like the Bug of the Day intitiative to be some way to introduce
newcomers into teamwork the Debian way.
I would highly estimate your support in doing so.
Kind regards and hopefully see you at MiniDebConf in Cambridge
Andreas.
