I don't plan to maintain the upstream code, no. However I believe that the package is simple enough that it won't require much upstream maintenance (if at all). > Please test the result: > > Vcs-Browser: http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-php/php-mail-mbox.git > Vcs-Git: http://git.debian.org/git/pkg-php/php-mail-mbox.git > > Let me know if it does what you expected, and if the package is usable > (I didn't test it...), and let me know if you need me to upload this > (and for what reason you do need it as said above), The package seems to work. I need this package as a dependency of Tuleap (http://tuleap.net). Tuleap is a forge (like sourceforge and fusionforge) so it's a huge beast and it will take a lot of time until the packages are ready for Debian. But I'm creating Debian packages for Tuleap to be hosted on pkg.tuleap.net until then. I'd appreciate if php-mail-mbox could be integrated in Debian already, but if you don't want to take care of it, it's not a big problem.
