Hello Folks,

it appeared that the upstrem team does not show very cooperative,
so I am postponing the maintenance the Debian package openviewerfx.

Meanwhile, I thanks Markus Koschany  for reviewing
the package.

Sorry for the noise,
Jerome

Is anything happening here?  ~2,5 months passed since the last email.

@Markus: if you are committing to reviwing and eventually sponsor a RFS,
please set yourself as owner of the bug.

I can now reproduce this issue on my box with pbuilder (it did not
show up at the time of uploading):
I have just filed a ticket issue on GitHUB:

https://github.com/IDRSolutions/maven-OpenViewerFX-src/issues/4

At the time of uploading, the source had an intricate name and was at source 
forge.
Meanwhile the upstream maintainer moved from SF to GitHub:
https://github.com/IDRSolutions/maven-OpenViewerFX-src

Currently there is no name issue because there is no name.
I can managed the downloading and the version checking with the recent uscan 
(version 4)
[thanks to Paul Wise]: I emitted an issue about this lake of tag, still in 
progress:
https://github.com/IDRSolutions/maven-OpenViewerFX-src/issues/3

I am not sure about that because OpenViewerFX is mainly a library.
Nevertheless, there are some samples: I will have a look.
This issue is minor compare to the building failure.

The Debian material has been clean up and refresh wrt to the new upstream 
source git
repository at GitHub.
