Re: Bug#936924: Moving libsvm to Debian Science team



Hi, Andreas,

I agree with your suggestions. Thanks for putting it on salsa!

Should I investigate dropping python2? I can spend some time this week on this. But I may need help with debian stuff. 

Thanks,
Chen-Tse

To push a bit I just commited

   https://salsa.debian.org/science-team/libsvm

Last maintainer upload was more than 3 years ago, 2 NMUs inbetween,
package is lagging behind upstream.  Anybody is kindly invited to adapt
the packaging (I think we should really get rid of cdbs since this in
turn is Python2) and proceed from here.

Kind regards

     Andreas.
