@anarcat tx, I updated the bug description with relevant information. ** Description changed:
The universe/web repository includes sql-ledger. ledgersmb is a fork of this project which was initially formed to address some security issues that the primary developer of sql-ledger was ignoring. The leader of the sql-ledger project has also demonstrated a lack of understanding of FOSS. Earlier this year, he attempted to change the license of his project retroactively from the GPL to a license that he wrote. Worse still, he did so without notifying other contributors or end users. One history of the incident can be read on Slashdot: http://yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/04/15/1759254&from=rss ledgersmb has gained a great deal of momentum. It is currently ranked - 376th on SourceForge. A debian package already exists on the download - page of the website: + 376th on SourceForge. - http://downloads.sourceforge.net/ledger-smb/deb- - prereq-1.2.8.tar.gz?modtime=1190837927&big_mirror=0 + Debian packages exist on the download page of the website (1.3.9 as of Jan-2012): + http://sourceforge.net/projects/ledger-smb/files/ledgersmb/ + + As noted in comment #11, packages for 1.3 are also available here: + http://www.getdeb.net/software/ledgersmb I respectfully submit that this package deserves to be included in the universe repository even more than it parent does.
