Thank you for working on this feature.
I tried the following "one-liner" (after mr up) and got no potential
patches for forwarding.
grep -i github */META.json \
| cut -f1 -d/ | uniq \
| while read d; do \
if [ -d $d/debian/patches ]; then \
find $d/debian/patches -name '*.patch' \
-o -name '*.diff' \
| while read f; do \
grep -L -v '^Forwarded:' "$f"; \
done; \
fi; \
done
I guess
https://lintian.debian.org/maintainer/pkg-perl-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org.html
contains many candidates for easy patching, e.g. POD/spelling errors.
One simply has to be lucky and find a github-based package.
Cheers,
dam
