Bug#756986: wheezy-pu: package debian-lan-config/0.13~bpo70+5
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Tags: wheezy
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu
Dear release managers!
I would like to ask for the permission to upload and the inclusion of
the latest debian-lan-config package in the upcoming wheezy point
release.
The debian-lan-config package is kind of special, as it contains no
'program' in itself, but instructions (in a FAI config space) on how
to build a composed system within debian, cf.
<URL:https://wiki.debian.org/DebianLAN>.
The package did not make it for the wheezy freeze and I provided it
via backports after the release. However, with further improvements,
it got less and less justified to use backports, as the wheezy package
is not a strict 'backport' of the version in jessie, which is of
course targeted at jessie.
Content and history of the package is available here:
<URL:http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/debian-lan.git/log/?h=wheezy>
The package should not pose any risk to the distribution, as it needs
to be 'activated' manually to do anything at all. To get an idea, cf.
<URL:http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/debian-lan.git/tree/debian/README.Debian?h=wheezy>.
Best regards and thanks for your consideration,
Andi
