Package: freetuxtv Version: 0.6.6~dfsg1-1 Severity: grave Justification: Package RC-buggy (x2) and completely unusable since 2014
[ Follow-up to discussion in #debian-multimedia. ] This package has been RC-buggy since 2014 (bugs #772845, #787351). In particular, it is completely unusable: it encounters a segmentation fault at startup. I am not opposed to continuing to sponsor it, but I haven't used it in several years and have no interest in maintaining it myself. Does anybody have a strong desire to keep it in Debian? Seeing that it has been completely unusable for a year and a half now, I'm ready to give it one more month before asking for it to be removed. (That's to say, unless someone replies to this bug report stating that they want to take care of this package, I will ask for it to be removed (RoM) from the archive come June 2016. As its sponsor, I realise I'm ultimately responsible for the package, and there is no point in letting it languish in the archives if nobody cares about it.) Apart from general housekeeping, here's what's required: * Replace non-free icons (bug #787351). Upstream promised to deal with this in May 2015. * Apply user submitted patch for the segmentation fault (bug #772845). Best wishes, Ryan -- |_)|_/ Ryan Kavanagh | Debian Developer | \| \ https://ryanak.ca/ | GPG Key 4A11C97A
