Best is to change the ITP to RFS. You can also request sponsors via the
mentors process¹ if people lurking on this list are too slow.

What's the bug number? Have you tagged it with the accessibility tag
already? Do you want to maintain it in the a11y team? Why not ask kibi,
who seems to be already doing commits?

I just uploaded edbrowse. For all of you that follow packaging, I
converted the repository to git, it is available here:

Need sponsor to package Oomox : tool to personalize GTK theme

2017-10-27 Thread Alex ARNAUD 

Dear all,

Few months ago I've opened a ITP to package Oomox for Debian, see 
https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2017/06/msg00278.html



This package allows people to customize the GTK+ theme, and is based on the 
Numix theme. It is a substitute of gnome-color-chooser that is deprecated (only 
for GTK+2).


This program is useful for people that want to create a new GTK+ theme and is useful for low-vision people that needs to change the contrast of the default theme. 


I've packaged it for Stretch to Hypra downstream repository here: 
http://git.hypra.fr/alexarnaud/oomox/commits/stretch-1.2.6-2


Do I need to close the ITP and reopen an RFS request? Does anybody could 
sponsored me to make oomox shipped into Debian?


Best regards.

Could you please explain the workaround or point us somewhere?

I was about to do the same.

Seems like this package can have some love. If anybody can find a patch,
I'll do the (political) work to get it in.


Does an upstream bug exist for this issue ?

Best regards.

It should be solved for all the users indeed. I'll add the accessibility 
tag.
