FTR, I don't know when or if I'll find the time and motivation to work on adequate so I'll be happy for a team to take it over and then join that team later down the track. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Using adequate has certainly made my life a bit easier, although at times it does have false-positives. Maybe there is something there I could help with ? Looking forward to know in whichever way I could help out. :) -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com EB80 462B 08E1 A0DE A73A 2C2F 9F3D C7A4 E1C4 D2D8

Ah, sorry, missed that part when I read through the history of this bug report. For a long time, BartM had a bug in his script retitling WNPP bug reports from ITA to O even if they were just RFA beforehand, so I expected this to be an victim of that bug, too, Anyway, in that case I've likely done just the right thing. So thanks for the clarification. :-) I intent to take care of the package under the QA umbrella in case of RC bugs or similar. But if I'd ever take over the package alone respectively its development, I likely have to rewrite tests/run-tests in another language. Testing Perl scripts with Python scripts is definitely not my way of doing such things, especially if TAP is not used. So I'd really prefer if a team would take it over. And I still think that the Lintian team would be the most appropriate team for that.

BartM's automatic WNPP mangeling has moved that bug report to an "O" in March 2017, and you haven't objected. This was move from (Paul's) ITA, so there wasn't anything for me to object. -- Jakub Wilk

BartM's automatic WNPP mangeling has moved that bug report to an "O" in March 2017 and you haven't objected. There is an open RC bug (#922773) for 1.5 weeks now without response from you. So I assume, this package is really orphaned. I've hence imported your Mercurial history into git and created a git repo on Salsa at https://salsa.debian.org/debian/adequate I intent to upload adequate as QA upload based on the above mentioned git repo later today, to get the fix for #922773 into buster before the hardfreeze.
