Package: global
Version: 5.7.1-2
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
GNU Global is very good source code tagging system. But current Debian
package is too old and even upstream recommends users not selecting
Debian's package.
Due to personal need, I re-packaged the latest version of global. The
respective dsc file can be found at:
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/global/global_6.2.8-1.dsc
I hope you can help review the new package. If possible, I also would
like to invite you as a sponsor for that.
Thank you.
Hongzheng

There is already bug #574947 open to discuss this, so I'm closing this
one because that doesn't need to be scattered across duplicates.
Please address the concerns there about the suitability of requiring
root to run an insecurely generated script, which this version introduces.
