Rogério Brito  has retired, so can't work on
the rtorrent package anymore (at least with this address).

We are tracking their status in the MIA team and would like to ask you
to remove them from the Uploaders list of the package so we can close
that part of the file.

(If the person is listed as Maintainer, what we are asking is to please
step in as a new maintainer.)

Thanks.

Bug#950880: devscripts: uscan: --download-current-version fails to pick tags from github

[ghostbar]

Package: devscripts
Version: 2.20.2
Severity: important
Usertags: uscan

I'm trying to rebuild an old version of capstone. For the source orig I 
tried to use uscan to get the tar.gz with --download-current-version but 
it failed to find it. Tried to debian/watch files, the current one:


```
version=3
https://github.com/aquynh/capstone/releases .*/archive/(3\..*)\.tar\.gz
```

And one with version 4:

```
version=4
opts="filenamemangle=s%(?:.*?)?v?(\d[\d.]*)\.tar\.gz%capstone-$1.tar.gz%" \
  https://github.com/aquynh/capstone/tags \
  (?:.*?/)?v?(\d[\d.]*)\.tar\.gz debian uupdate
```

Both failed in the same way, they work without parameters, downloading 
the latest version, but when it comes to use --download-current-version 
give the same "no matching hrefs for version", but the tag for version 
3.0.4 does exist in github[1]:


```
root@c7e7c30e65ea:/opt/src# uscan
uscan: Newest version of capstone on remote site is 4.0.1, local version 
is 3.0.4

uscan:=> Newer package available from
  https://github.com/aquynh/capstone/archive/4.0.1.tar.gz
Successfully symlinked ../capstone-4.0.1.tar.gz to 
../capstone_4.0.1.orig.tar.gz.

uupdate: debian/source/format is "3.0 (quilt)".
uupdate: Auto-generating capstone_3.0.4-0.3.debian.tar.xz
uupdate: -> Copy to  capstone_4.0.1-1.debian.tar.xz

Bug#772571: powertop still maintained?

[ghostbar]

Hi Tomas!

I’ll work on this on the weekend/monday. Sorry for this, I lost it in my todo 
list 5 years ago ¯_(ツ)_/¯
