Bug#1093957: ITS: latexila
Source: latexila
Version: 3.22.0-1.2
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: 910573@bugs.debian.org, Tanguy Ortolo <tanguy+debian@ortolo.eu>, Debian TeX maintainers <debian-tex-maint@lists.debian.org>, 829842@bugs.debian.org, 948071@bugs.debian.org, 1079418@bugs.debian.org, наб <nabijaczleweli@nabijaczleweli.xyz>, Package Salvaging Team <team+salvage@tracker.debian.org>
Hi,
I'm interested in salvaging your package latexila, in accordance with
the Package Salvaging procedure outlined in the Developers Reference[1].
Your package meets the criteria for this process, and I would love to
assist in preserving and maintaining it. As the Salvage process
suggests, here is a list of the criteria that apply, in my opinion:
- NMUs (more than one NMU in a row).
- Bugs filed against the package do not have answers from the
maintainer.
- Upstream has released several versions, but despite there being
a bug entry asking for it, it has not been packaged.
- There are QA issues with the package.
I believe your package would be a great addition to the Debian TeX, and
I took the liberty to create the Salsa repository here[2]. If you choose
not to accept the ITS, I'd be more than happy to help you move it to
another location, such as debian/, or wherever you prefer. My goal is to
make it as easy as possible for you to join the team. I'd also be
delighted to assist in adding you as a team member if you could share
your Salsa login.
Please note: I tried hard to fetch the original repository from
https://git.ortolo.eu/pkg-latexila.git
but failed. If you might be able to provide some working Git repository
featuring the whole packaging history I'll happily include this into the
repository I created via `gbp import-dscs` since I have seen no better
chance to create the repository.
Your package was highlighted in the Bug of the Day[3] initiative, which
aims to introduce newcomers to manageable tasks and guide them through
the workflow to solve them. The focus of this initiative is on migrating
packages to Salsa, as it's a great way to familiarize newcomers with a
consistent Git-based workflow.
Kind regards
Andreas.
