Hi Javier,
I'm interested in salvaging the package compartment, in accordance with
the Package Salvaging procedure outlined in the Developers Reference[1].
This package meets the criteria for this process, and I would love to
assist in preserving and maintaining it. As the Salvage process
suggests, here is a list of the criteria that apply, in my opinion:
- NMUs (more than one NMU in a row).
- Bugs filed against the package do not have answers from the
maintainer.
- Upstream has released several versions
- There are QA issues with the package.
I've set up a repository within the salvage-team space[2] to assist you
with this initial setup. I admit I'm not really happy to have the
package inside Salvage team. Maybe it is better in Debian/ or in some
security team. Since I know you are active I hereby explicitly ask for
your advise and hope the current work is somehow helpful for you and
might lend you some helping hand to continue from here. I'm just using
the package salvage procedure since this is somehow the default
procedure we are using for packages that show up as Bug of the Day
candidates. I hope this service helps make the transition to using a
Git repository on Salsa smoother and more convenient for you.
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.
