I updated my package to the newest one, converted it to the 3.0 (quilt) source format, added DEP 3 headers to the patches, fixed a couple of other minor issues, and here's the result - still a RFS for an initial upload of mbuffer into the Debian archive by a kind sponsor :) * Package name : mbuffer Version : 20091122-1 Upstream Author : Thomas Maier-Komor <thomas@maier-komor.de> * URL : http://www.maier-komor.de/mbuffer.html * License : GPL-3+ * Language : C There is a single binary package: mbuffer - tool for buffering data streams The mbuffer tool is used to buffer data streams and show the I/O rate and summary to the user. It is especially useful for writing backups to fast tape drives or streaming them over the network. If used correctly, it can prevent buffer underruns and speed up the whole backup or transfer process. It has been tested with lintian and pbuilder. The upload would fix these bugs: 534216 The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/m/mbuffer/mbuffer_20091122-1.dsc I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.
