I have never been using mysql-gui-tools, so I don't really know if mysql-workbench is really a drop-in replacement. It is usable though and I use it daily. > Anyhow; what's the status of this ITP?

I have contacted Norbert Tretkowski quite some time ago, and after a brief e-mail conversation he told me that he would review the package, but propably he couldn't time to do it. The package is not lintian clean (the biggest issue being embedded tinyxml library) so I didn't forward it to mentors.debian.net . So in fact I do not only need a sponsor but I need a review and some advice as well. It would be really great if you would find time to do both. I do not have r/w access to the pkg-mysql SVN repository, so probably the repository does not have to be there. I have been using git to track my changes to the package. > > I hope all the problems ftp-masters raised were fixed. > The only issue that was not addressed was a suggestion concerning separating the documentation from the main package. > If you want me to sponsor it, since I'm not part of pkg-mysql *and* I'm not > used anymore to SVN-packaging, please make a package and upload it to > mentors.debian.net. Then send me the link, so that I can review it. The newest upstream version seems to complain about autotools in sid. As soon as I deal with it, I'll upload the package to mentors and inform you then. > > I just marked the -gui-tools RC bug "replace with -workbench" as blocked by > this bug; it would be nice to have both solved in time for wheezy. Hopefully they both will be fixed in time. Regards, Mateusz. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
