RFS: dgtdrv: POSIX driver for the DGT chess board

["W. van den Akker" <listsrv@wilsoft.nl>]

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "dgtdrv".

* Package name    : dgtdrv
  Version         : 1.18-1
  Upstream Author : Alexander Wagner
* URL             : http://dgtdrv.sourceforge.net
* License         : GPL v2
  Section         : games

It builds these binary packages:
dgtdrv     - POSIX driver for the DGT chess board

 The main purpose of dgtdrv is to give Non-Windows-Users the opportunity
 to use their DGT Electronic Chess Board  in their used environment. In
 principle, dgtdrv allows to use almost every current chess GUI to use the
 board. The sole requirement is that this GUI offers an engine tournament 
mode.

The package appears to be lintian clean.

The upload would fix these bugs: 488966

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/d/dgtdrv
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main 
contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/d/dgtdrv/dgtdrv_1.18-1.dsc

Be aware the program needs the libdgtnix package which is also uploaded by
me and posted in the mentors mailinglist.
Because it must be used with a chessboard and can not be tested by many of
you I include the output of the program after it is installed. So you can
see its working... ;)
