Dear mentors, I'm Cc'in Jose the upstream author, and previous maintainer for esmtp in Debian, which is now orphaned. See http://bugs.debian.org/561302
I preprared a QA upload for esmtp. I would like to hear some comments,
and if you find it ok, to upload it in case. The only thing is missed
yet, I know, is updated translations from the debconf templates.
The full changelog for the current version I prepared is the
following:
---(debian/changelog)---------------------------------------------------
esmtp (1.2-1) unstable; urgency=low

- Bump Build-Depends for debhelper (>= 7).
- Add Homepage field.
- Add ${misc:Depends} to Depends field for the esmtp-run binary package
stanza.
- Slightly improve synopsis for esmtp and esmtp-run binary packages.
* Bump compat level for debhelper to 7.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
It builds these binary packages:
esmtp - user configurable relay-only MTA
esmtp-run - user configurable relay-only MTA - the regular MTA
The package appears to be lintian clean.
The upload would fix these bugs: 528343, 543186, 558390
The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/e/esmtp
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main
contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/e/esmtp/esmtp_1.2-1.dsc
I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.
Kind regards
