RFS: lsh (updated package)



Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 2.0.4-dfsg-1
of our package "lsh".

It builds these binary packages:
lsh-client - Secure Shell v2 (SSH2) protocol client
lsh-doc    - Secure Shell v2 (SSH2) client / server / utilities documentation
lsh-server - Secure Shell v2 (SSH2) protocol server
lsh-utils  - Secure Shell v2 (SSH2) protocol utilities

This is my third attempt at finding a sponsor for this package (maybe using 
mentors.d.n will increase my chances...). As I've explain previously, I've 
communicated with the current maintainers and they're pretty OK with me as a 
co-maintainer, but after the initial email exchange (three months ago) 
they've shown next to zero interest. Sure, almost everybody uses OpenSSH 
today, but I think LSH still deserves to exist.

The package appears to be lintian clean. Note however that I've made some 
rather big packaging changes, as well as renaming the source package 
(from "lsh-utils" - the question I still haven't got the answer is whether 
the PTS will be confused by the fact that there is a different "lsh" still in 
oldstable) and the -doc package (from lsh-utils-doc - I didn't make a 
transitional package since I didn't think it's that important for a 
documentation package). Also, the package is not exactly the same as at the 
time of my previous RFS - I went ahead with some more restructuring that I 
had planned.

The upload would fix these bugs: 340354, 408490, 412138, 417426, 421108, 
422199

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/l/lsh
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/l/lsh/lsh_2.0.4-dfsg-1.dsc

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.

Kind regards
