RFS: collectl
Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor and a little help for my package "collectl".
Firstly I have three package questions.
1) The package is based on perl and uses additional modules. As far I know
/usr/lib/perl5/collectl would be the optimal path. But upstream prefers
/usr/share/collectl.
2) Lintian complains
W: collectl source: quilt-build-dep-but-no-series-file
N:
N: Using quilt requires you to explicitly list all patches you want to
N: apply in debian/patches/series. This package build-depends on quilt, but
I really do not know what it complains about, as there is non-empty
debian/patches/series file.
3) ITP. An ITP to uload the package was opened by "Simmons, Christopher"
<Christopher.Simmons@pnl.gov> some time ago. But on the one hand Christopher
didn't update the bug report any more and then I created an unofficial
collectl package a long time before that. I definitely do not insist to be the
package maintainer. I just want to have collectl in Debian. Christopher, if
you are still interested in maintaining collectl, please tell me so. We could
either share maintenance or I could hand it over to you.
Thanks,
Bernd
