Keep maintaining the package in Debian and get the program back to the distribution

Open jsbien opened this issue 5 years ago • 5 comments

Just get a message the package is removed from unstable because Daniel Stender retired and orphaned the package ( #945183).

I still use the program on Debian.

The package was also removed because it is python2 only. Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora will all be removing python2 packages in their upcoming releases:

See related issue #39

I've retired from Debian package maintenance. Sorry.

There are two separate issues. Adapting the program to python3 and packaging it for Debian. As for the latter, I can submit Request to Package and see what will happen. What about the former? Would you like to contribute? Regards and thanks for your work - Janusz
