I guess the patch tracker is still down, right? I cloned the git repo and it's possible to bring this up on a jessie host with only one small extra dependency that is not packaged (backports.lzma python module, which is small enough to be packaged in unstable and become a backport to jessie then; I don't know what's the policy though for debian.org hosts). Browsing a few random packages seems to work correctly, although without an extensive test suite I don't know how well the code works for various packaging types. So from the point of view of "fix the code for wheezy^Wjessie" this is rather trivial. Are people interested in having patch-tracker back (I know I am ☺)? If so, I'll try to take this over and start by contacting the debian-admin list. PS: Long-term, the current codebase needs some redoing - e.g. it uses cheetah as templating engine, and that's not available under Python 3, etc. regards, iustin
