Hi Nigel,
I'm interested in salvaging the package cputool, in accordance with the
Package Salvaging procedure outlined in the Developers Reference[1].
This package meets the criteria for this process, and I would love to
assist in preserving and maintaining it. As the Salvage process
suggests, here is a list of the criteria that apply, in my opinion:
- Bugs filed against the package do not have answers from the
maintainer.
- Upstream has released several versions, but despite there being
a bug entry asking for it, it has not been packaged.
- There are QA issues with the package.
I've set up a repository within the salvage-team space[2] to assist you
with this initial setup on Salsa. I started with an exact clone of your
old packaging repository and ugraded it to your latest upstream since I
realised you are upstream and Debian maintainer in one person. BTW, I
also created two patches you can find in the freshly created packaging
Git[3]. You are kindly invited to incorporate these in your next
upstream release.
If you decide not to accept the ITS, this repository can easily be moved
to another location, such as debian/, or any place of your choosing. I
hope this service helps make the transition to using a Git repository on
Salsa smoother and more convenient for you.
This package was highlighted in the Bug of the Day[4] initiative, which
aims to introduce newcomers to manageable tasks and guide them through
the workflow to solve them. The focus of this initiative is on migrating
packages to Salsa, as it's a great way to help newcomers become familiar
with a consistent Git-based workflow.
Kind regards
Andreas.
