RFC: QA vs NMU on ssystem - 3D solar system simulator



Hello mentors,

I like some comments on the following:

I made some small changes to an orphaned package (ssystem), to fix a bug
(#482936) and to fix some lintian errors/warnings. I understand that
this should be a QA upload because QA is maintainer, but I might be
wrong and that this should be a NMU. Am I right? Because upstream is
dead, I don't know if I should adopt it, I don't know much about C yet.
The program is pretty old, but apparently a lot leaner on processing
power than it's descendant called celestia.

Further, there is one lintian warning left:
      I: ssystem: arch-dep-package-has-big-usr-share 1224kB 83%
I can (easily) fix this, but that way I change the package more than I
think is appropriate for QA. What do others think? Should I fix this as
well?

I uploaded to mentors.d.n but I am still waiting until it is processed.
It probably will be available at:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/ssystem
- dget
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/ssystem/ssystem_1.6-18.dsc

With kind regards,
Paul
