I'll track its status, but am uploading the NMU in the meanwhile.

Uhm... no, I haven't. I will try :)

Thanks a lot!

RFS: pyspi (NMU - RC bug fix)

2009-07-06 Thread Ruben Molina
Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my NMU of the pyspi package.

I am fixing an one-year-old RC bug here (#482260). I provided the patch
four months ago, and stated my intention to NMUing two months ago.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/pyspi 
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main 
contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/pyspi/pyspi_0.6.1-1.2.dsc 

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.

Kind regards
 Ruben Molina

Dear Ruben, thank you very much for your effort of removing RC bugs in Debian!

In the particular case of pyspi, I note that it had only two upload, the
initial by the maintaine and a NMU, and that it was removed from testing one
year ago. His maintainer showed activity in February-March 2009, which means
that he is aware of the RC bug, but for some reason did not fix it.

First of all, have you tried to contact him directly? In my experience it often
works suprisingly better that through the BTS, despite the email goes in the
same @debian.org box.

If he does not show interest for his package, then unless you want to adopt it,
I would rather recommend that you file a request for removal. If for more than
one year there was no manpower to take care of this package (and its reverse
dependancy), then NMUing it will only have the effect of drawing some time of
another developper at the next RC bug…

Have a nice day,
