Hi Makoto,
The TeX team would be interested in helping with dvi2ps-fontdata,
following the Package Salvaging procedure outlined in the Developers
Reference[1]. From what I see, the package seems to meet the criteria
for this process, and I'd like to support keeping it maintained in
Debian. As the Salvage process suggests, here is a list of the criteria
that I believe apply:
- NMUs (more than one NMU in a row).
- Bugs filed against the package do not have answers from the
maintainer.
- There are QA issues with the package.
I believe the package would be a great addition to the Debian TeX team,
and I took the liberty to create the Salsa repository here[2]. If you
choose not to accept the ITS, I'd be more than happy to help you move it
to another location, such as debian/, or wherever you prefer. My goal is
to make it as easy as possible for you to join the team. I'd also be
delighted to assist in adding you as a team member if you could share
your Salsa login.
This package was highlighted in the Bug of the Day[3] initiative, which
aims to introduce newcomers to manageable tasks and guide them through
the workflow to solve them. The focus of this initiative is on migrating
packages to Salsa, as it's a great way to help newcomers become familiar
with a consistent Git-based workflow.
Kind regards
Andreas.
