Hello, You may have seen it already - I have uploaded 2.9.7. The build demons https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=linuxcnc had no problems, it should soon be available on the Debian mirrors. The new version is already mentioned on https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/linuxcnc. To upload, I made only minimal changes to the tarball, i.e. the -1 suffix to the version d/changelog and "unstable" as a release, added d/source/format. No upload to salsa or linuxcnc-gbp. Maintainer is Andy, so this is a sponsored upload, not a team-upload as before, which is preparing for Andy to get upload privileges himself, too.
