Package: yafray
Version: 0.0.8-2
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

0.0.9 has been released a while ago (more than 2 months) and one would
like to use it, e.g. from Blender. I had a quick look at it and built a
package for that version, that you can find fetch using dget on the
description file[1] or by fetching manually from the repository[2]

 1. http://debian.asyd.net/debian/pool/main/y/yafray/yafray_0.0.9-1.dsc
 2. http://debian.asyd.net/debian/pool/main/y/yafray/

Here is the changelog entry I added, if you want to have a quick look at
it:

/============= CHANGELOG ENTRY =============\

yafray (0.0.9-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release:
      maintenance update from 0.0.8, with some improvements to RAM usage and
      raytracing robustness.
  * Added myself as comaintainer, in the Uploaders: field.
  * Modified 01-scons-install-fix.dpatch to remove unneeded headers.
  * Added 10_gnukfreebsd_support.dpatch to add support for GNU/kFreeBSD
    (Closes: #389073).
  * Removed 02-64bit-297295.dpatch since it has been integrated upstream.
  * Removed debian/ex.package.doc-base.
  * Bumped Standards-Version (no change needed).
  * Improved short and long descriptions in debian/control.
  * Improved debian/copyright:
     - added year to copyrights;
     - added pointer to /usr/share/common-licenses/LGPL;
     - changed FSF address.
  * Added Build-Depends: on autotools-dev since its config.{guess,sub} files
    are used when building the source (in the clean target).
  * Repacked upstream source to remove debian/.

\============= CHANGELOG ENTRY =============/


Remaining troubles are:
 - a unclear copyright statement, some outdated mail addresses, which I
   already reported to upstream, I'm waiting for their answer;
 - and the trouble reported by lintian, about shlib file, but which
   already existed in the former versions; and on which I'll be working
   soon.

As you might have guessed from the bug title and from the changelog, I'd
like to help you maintaining it. Would you accept me as comaintainer?

Cheers,
