Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: chrysn <chrysn@fsfe.org> * Package name : lolcat Version : 42.0.99-1 Upstream Author : Moe <moe@busyloop.net> * URL : https://github.com/busyloop/lolcat * License : WTFPL Programming Lang: Ruby Description : colorful `cat` lolcat concatenates files like the UNIX `cat` program, but colors it for the lulz in a rainbow animation. Terminals with 256 colors and animations are supported. lolcat is a typical "game" program in the sense of cowsay or fortune; the kind of tool you keep installed for occasional amuesement. i'm not familiar with Ruby or ruby packaging; the current packaging just dumps the lib/ files in /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/ and installs the executable script to /usr/games/. if there is a better way to install gems (ideally one that doesn't involve cdbs, just as a matter of personal preference), please let me know. the package is lintian clean (except for the pedantic issue of not having an upstream changelog), and works well. if someone could confirm that the ruby packaging part is sound, i'd be looking for a sponsor. the packages will be available on debian mentors in a few minutes.
