I need to admit I'm totally stuck with this package. Yes, there is a
new upstream version since a long time and I tried several times to
update it in Git[1]. However, its basically a new packaging of a large
package with the need for excluding several code copies of libraries.
I took over the maintenance from a former uploader which left the team
but I need to admit my time resources and interest in this package are
quite sparse.
To have a chance to keep sofa-framework we need an expert in cmake who
has some experience how to replace Debian packaged libraries. I'd
happily add any volunteer to the Debian Med team to give full commit
permissions. If nobody volunteers I do not see a realistic chance to
keep that package.
Kind regards,
Andreas.
