Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
Control: affects -1 src:libwebcam

I am orphaning this package ( https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/libwebcam ) to
reduce the maintenance footprint on packages that I am not familiar of.

The package libwebcam itself hasn't seen upstream development for nearly a
decade. Given its stable codebase and build system, the future maintenance
should be relatively easy. Git packaging repo is located under regular
salsa.debian.org/debian/libwebcam namespace.

Package description:

 The Webcam Library libwebcam is designed to simplify
 the development of webcam applications, primarily on Linux but
 with an option to be ported to other platforms, in particular
 Solaris. It realizes part of what the unwritten Video4Linux user
 space library was always supposed to be: an easy to use library
 that shields its users from many of the difficulties and problems
 of using the V4L2 API directly.

Best Regards,
Boyuan Yang
