Source: vflib3 Version: 3.7.2+dfsg-0.1 Severity: important X-Debbugs-Cc: 744677@bugs.debian.org, 902030@bugs.debian.org, 1021185@bugs.debian.org, 1028300@bugs.debian.org, 1030513@bugs.debian.org, 1045442@bugs.debian.org, 1075620@bugs.debian.org, Debian TeX maintainers <debian-tex-maint@lists.debian.org>, OHURA Makoto <ohura@debian.org>, Package Salvaging Team <team+salvage@tracker.debian.org>, 1099851@bugs.debian.org Hi, I'm interested in salvaging your package vflib3, in accordance with the Package Salvaging procedure outlined in the Developers Reference[1]. Please note: Since vflib3 is a prerequisite for dvi2ps, for which I've filed another ITS bug report (#1099851) that is still awaiting a response, I plan to shorten the waiting period for uploading vflib3 to ensure both packages progress in parallel. I intend to upload both packages on 2025-03-29 to the delayed=10 queue. Given that this upload will also address a longstanding RC bug (#1075620), I believe a shorter waiting period is reasonable. 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 maintainers, 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. 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.
