Package: drawmap Severity: minor Hi,
I did some investigation about packages which were not uploaded a long time by the according team. For Debian GIS it is drawmap (last upload 2007-05-18). I'd regard the package in bad shape since it mentions a homepage which just throws 404, no Vcs URLs are specified (I did not checked whether it really is not in Vcs) and it has long standing open bugs. In Debian Med I would simply upgrade the packaging, inject it into Vcs and check for new upstream. I have found a slightly newer upstream here: http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/science/cartography/drawmap-2.6.tar.gz My questions are: - Does anybody know a newer version? - Has this probably orphaned upstream program some use these days and should we as in Debian GIS team care for this. If the later question is answered with "yes" (and perhaps some reasons for this yes are given) I would volunteer to move the packaging into Debian GIS Git, update to the latest upstream version and upgrade the packaging to the rules of Debian GIS policy. Any further comments?
