Thank you very much, both of you, for all the care and work that you've
dedicated to "freespace2".

I'm terribly sorry that I could not attend this package earlier. 
I'm working on it today as some changes should be made, IMHO.

I hope to finish before next week. I will take care of CI and I'm going
to add a README.source describing how to build for amd64 and i386 and
"mergechanges".

I recommend simplified build procedure without GBP:

IMHO it is too much hassle to import-orig when it comes to MUT
packages. We just have to make sure that "origtargz" works -- that is
the best way to obtain sources.

Just as everyone in a tribe praying to a volcano god would reinforce the
idea that there is a volcano god, so begging politicians for favors
reinforces the idea that there is a rightful ruling class, that their
commands are "law," and that obedience to such "laws" is a moral
imperative.

Thanks,

There's only "debian/", can you also upload an "upstream" branch ?

I'd like to enable CI on this repository, so it should be self contained
without need to fish .tgz from
https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/non-free/f/freespace2/

Please also test that "gbp buildpackage" works with a fresh throwaway
"gbp clone".

Greetings & thank you already,

Hi Sébastien,

Can you please upload a copy of your git tree with 23.2.1+repack-1 at
   https://salsa.debian.org/games-team/freespace2 ?

https://salsa.debian.org/twolife/freespace2/ stops at 23.2.0 while
mentors is at 23.2.1

Dimitry: can this be a one-of team-upload ?

Greetings,

I still have interest for this package but I'm struggling with limited
capacity and more pressing priorities. I'd appreciate some help and you
are welcome to co-maintain the package.

Thank you for your attention and care.

Bug#1051803: ITS: freespace2

2023-09-12 Thread Sébastien Noel
Source: freespace2
Version: 3.7.4+repack-1.1 
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-CC: pkg-games-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org

Dear maintainer,

After looking at your freespace2 package [1], I found that this package
received no maintainer updates in the past 5 years and was not in good
shape. It has a FTBFS bug [2] and it was removed from testing
6 months ago.
As a result, I am filing an ITS (Intent to Salvage) request
against your package according to section 5.12 in Debian's Developers'
Reference [1].

My current plan to maintain the package under the umbrella of the
Debian Games Team, to package the latest upstream release, clean up
packaging and review/fix all Debian bug reports.
A MR has already been posted to Salsa [3]

Full disclosure: I will need a sponsor to upload the package in the
archive.

Please let me know whether you are still willing to maintain this
package. If you find it necessary to pause the ITS process,
please let me know immediately by replying this bug report.
