Package: wnpp Severity: normal
I am doing this on behalf of the maintainer, who wrote in bug 412777: >Sorry, I haven't had much time to work on it. I'd happily give it to anyone >who wants to take it over. I think most of the utilities in the package have >been obsoleted, and I rarely use them. (Hope you don't mind, Robert, but I interpret that as an RFA.) The netdiag package could use an adopter. The package description is: Netdiag contains a collection of small tools to analyze network traffic and configuration of remote hosts. It is of invaluable help if your system is showing strange network behaviour and you want to find out what your network is doing. The included tools are tcpblast, netload, trafshow, netwatch, strobe, statnet, and tcpspray. An adopter will probably want to deal with several issues at a minimum: - New upstream for trafshow (381993) - New upstream for netwatch (121541) - Many of the programs are dead upstream or have changed upstreams - lots and lots of old bugs (some which might already be fixed, and some of which might be fixed by the new upstreams) An adopter might actually want to remove the package and replace it with several independent packages based on the different new upstreams. :-) If there isn't any interest in adopting this package after a few months, I will probably request removal. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable'), (499, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-4-686 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
