Package: plt-scheme Version: 4.0.1-2 Severity: wishlist PLT Scheme underwent a name change at version 5.0. The language is now called Racket (since it has diverged somewhat from Scheme); the new site for the project is:
http://www.racket-lang.org It would be nice if Racket were packaged for Debian. Even the Sid version of PLT Scheme (4.2.4) feels out of date. To my untutored eye, it looks like the organization of the source tree has remained pretty consistent in the transition from PLT Scheme to Racket, so I'm hoping that updating the package will require a relatively small effort. A new Racket package would probably need to Replace/Conflict the current plt-scheme package, as there would be name collisions (e.g., /usr/bin/drscheme) otherwise.
