Hey everyone, Has anyone seen Jules Bean around? Is he still active? His LyX packages are out of date and I'm starting to suspect that he might be MIA, since he's not on vacation according to people.d.o. LyX: #148555, #157839, #166178 Debian Unstable 1.1.6fix4-2 (2001-07-31) 1.2.0 (2002-05-29) 1.2.1 (2002-08-20) His last post to the BTS regarding 1.2.x packages was on May 30 under #148555 and he hasn't responded since to my queries. Someone really should consider NMUing this package because 1.1.6 cannot open 1.2.x LyX files at all and I'm starting to encounter more and more workstations out there with LyX 1.2.1. If no one else wishes to package 1.2.1 within the week or if Jules remains MIA, then I'm willing to undertake it. In addition, Np237 on IRC has pointed out that Balsa (another of Jules's package) is also in the same situation. Balsa: #126058 Debian Unstable balsa-1.2.4-2 (2002-01-20) GNOME1.4 balsa-1.4.1 (2002-09-14) GNOME2 balsa-2.0.3 (2002-10-28) I guess I could NMU Balsa2 as well if no one objects within the fortnight, though my priorities will be with LyX since I use it a lot. Yours sincerely, Andrew "Netsnipe" Lau -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Andrew 'Netsnipe' Lau Computer Science & Sturep, UNSW * * "apt-get into it" Debian GNU/Linux Packager * * <netsnipe(+)debianplanet.org\0> <alau(+)cse.unsw.edu.au\0> * * GnuPG 1024D/2E8B68BD 0B77 73D0 4F3B F286 63F1 9F4A 9B24 C07D 2E8B 68BD * ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
