Hi debian-mentors, I'm reposting this because I didn't get any feedback last time (a month ago.)
I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 210r20001005-1 of the package "jzip", a text mode interpreter for Z-Code (originally coined by Infocom) adventures. It was recently orphaned (see #377871), and I'm adopting it and updating to a "new" upstream version from the year 2000. Although upstream development has stopped, the program is working well and I'd like to keep it in Debian. Although frotz is generally regarded as the better text-mode zcode interpreter, jzip is the other "big" one. It has one advantage over frotz: it can combine the interpreter and a zcode game into one standalone executable. The packages share the 'zcode-interpreter' alternative along with 'xzip'. The package is lintian clean. The upstream source is only available in zip (the compression :) format, so I had to repackage the source so that the orig.tar.gz only contains the pristine zip file. The recommended README.Debian-source file and 'get-orig-source' debian/rules target are provided, of course. Patches to the upstream source are managed with quilt. The upload would fix these bugs: 359433, 377871 The package can be found at http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/j/jzip I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.
