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.
