RFS: herwig++/2.6.0-1 [ITP]

[Lifeng Sun <lifongsun@gmail.com>]

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "herwig++"

* Package name    : herwig++
  Version         : 2.6.0-1
  Upstream Author : David Grellscheid et al. <herwig@projects.hepforge.org>
* URL             : http://projects.hepforge.org/herwig/
* License         : GPL-2
  Section         : science

It builds those binary packages:

 herwig++      - Multi-purpose event generator for high energy physics
 herwig++-data - Herwig++ Data
 herwig++-dev  - Herwig++ development files

To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:

  http://mentors.debian.net/package/herwig%2B%2B


Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this
command:

  dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/h/herwig++/herwig++_2.6.0-1.dsc

Changes since the last upload:

  This is the initial upload of "herwig++".

NOTE: The chain of build-dep is as follows,

  herwig++ -> thepeg (RFS) [1] -> rivet (RFS) [2] -> yaml-cpp (NEW) [3]

herwig++ currently includes and links to an adapted package of
LoopTools [4-5], I would avoid the building of convenient source in
the near future after wheezy freezes.
