Hi Dr. Tobias, Thank you for helping with Hugo! Indeed, there are lots of new dependencies in the newer versions, and I really appreciate your help! I am writing to let you know that github.com/jdkato/prose has already been packaged, though under a different source package name. See https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-go/packages/golang-github-jdkato-prose.git/ See also https://bugs.debian.org/871474 : #871474: ITP: golang-github-jdkato-prose -- Golang library for text processing, Unfortunately, I goofed up on the first try back in August: I missed some copyright attributions in debian/copyright, leading to its rejection a month later. However, my fixed upload in September must have been overlooked by the Debian FTP Masters as it is still stuck in the NEW queue a month and a half later. (Or perhaps the FTP Masters are still overwhelmed by the influx of new packages after the Stretch release?) See https://ftp-master.debian.org/new.html I probably should have reached out for help sooner instead of just waiting passively, though I didn't want to bother anyone prematurely. :-) Though apparently my inaction had led to a duplication of effort (my apologies), and hence this email. Thank you again to both Dr. Tobias and the FTP Masters Team for helping! Cheers, Anthony
