Thanks for quick heads-up, will do.

If I have time to spare I will have a look at it.

It is affected by these RC bugs:
803292: wmaker: prepare for giflib5


Hello,

Rodolfo, do you want me to try to fix this with a NMU?

BTW I have seen that there is some packaging for 0.95.7 in upstream
GIT, is there a special treason why this has not appeared in Debian
yet?

Hi Andreas,

I am very busy and I have no time to create the new package. Feel free  
to create a new NMU package, thanks a lot.


If you want, change the maintainer to the wmaker team.

About the 0.95.7, the upstream changes some things. The autoconf  
changes some files in the .orig.tar.gz files, so probably the  
debian/rules file should be changed or we need to create some  
debian/patches to solve this problem.


Thanks for your help.

Hello,

Rodolfo, do you want me to try to fix this with a NMU?

BTW I have seen that there is some packaging for 0.95.7 in upstream
GIT, is there a special treason why this has not appeared in Debian
yet?
