Dear QA team, the maintainer of that package has expressed in <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=238580&msg=14> that he doesn't have the time / interest to maintain this package at the moment. Yet bug#159057 (serious) needs to be resolved in Woody for the (possibly) upcoming 3.0r3, and as AFAIK the version in sid needs to be higher than the version in proposed-updates there has to be an upload to sid before anything can be done. I've prepared a complete update, but I understand that these circumstances are a little bit unusual for sponsoring, so if you just want to NMU that's fine with me. Certainly I'd be very glad about sponsoring, though. :) Anyways, please find the upstream tarball at <http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/L/LU/LUISMUNOZ/Crypt-PasswdMD5-1.3.tar.gz>. I've repacked this as <libcrypt-passwdmd5-perl_1.3.orig.tar.gz>, all files (signed, lintian / linda / pbuilder / debdiff tested) can be found at <http://ernst.uni-hd.de/debian/libcrypt-passwdmd5-perl>, but please check carefully. My changelog entry reads as follows: | libcrypt-passwdmd5-perl (1.3-1) unstable; urgency=low | . | * New upstream release, new maintainer (Closes: #238580) | * debian/control: | + raised versioned B-D on perl and changed to B-D-I, thus | B-D on libdigest-md5-perl no longer needed -> removed | + raised versioned B-D on debhelper for dh_perl use | + B-D on zlib1g-dev not needed -> removed | + updated short and long description | + Standards-Version 3.6.1 | * debian/copyright: | + additional license text, added pointer to perl license | + spelling fix | * debian/rules: | + DH_COMPAT moved into debian/compat | + general cleanup, including streamlining | * debian/watch: added Joey expressed he'd upload an update to stable once this is done, so please lend a helping hand here... Cheers, Flo
