This package meets the criteria for this process, and I would love to assist in preserving and maintaining it.
Thank you kindly, I'd appreciate 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 themaintainer. - 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 youwith 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.
Thank you for assistance with this, it is very much appreciated! I'll merge the patches shortly, thanks for the contributions!
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.
I really do appreciate your help with this! Thanks! Kind Regards Nigel
