Bug#570281: O: darcs-buildpackage -- Suite to help with Debian packages in Darcs archives



Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I intend to orphan the darcs-buildpackage package.

I no longer use it, and also no longer maintain it upstream.  If
someone on the debian-haskell team is interested in adopting it and
maintaining it, you have my blessing to do so and to establish a new
home for the project.

-- John

The package description is:
 This package helps automate and ease the task of maintaining Debian
 packages by helping you, the Debian developer, take advantage of
 the unique features in Darcs.  The programs included are:
 .
 dbp-importdsc: Import an upstream version and a Debian version from
 a Debian source package, automatically detecting package and version
 information from the .dsc.
 .
 dbp-importorig: Import an upstream tar.gz or directory.
 .
 dbp-markdeb: Mark a working copy for future reference.
 .
 darcs-buildpackage: Builds a Debian package based on information in
 the repository, checking out Debian and upstream versions as necessary.
 .
 dbp-get: Checks out a source tree for a package into the current
 directory, referring to Darcs mirrors if necessary.
