Bug#123504: O: libregexx -- C++ wrapper to the GNU regex functions

[Martin Michlmayr <tbm@cyrius.com>]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

The current maintainer of libregexx, ,
is apparently not active anymore[*].  Therefore, I orphan this package
now.  If you want to be the new maintainer, please take it -- retitle
this bug from 'O:' to 'ITA:', fix the outstanding bugs and upload a
new version with your name in the Maintainer: field and a

   * New maintainer (Closes: #thisbug)

in the changelog so this bug is closed.

Some information about this package:

Package: libregexx
Binary: libregexx-dev, libregexx-examples, libregexx0
Version: 0.96-1.2
Priority: optional
Section: libs

Description: C++ wrapper to the GNU regex functions
 Regexx has been developed as a wrapper to the GNU regex functions
 to avoid reinventing the wheel. When I was developing it, I had in
 mind a good implementation that would allow me to do almost everything
 I could in softwares like perl but keep it easy to use.
 .
 More information can be found at the regexx web site
 http://projects.nn.com.br/regexx/ .




[*] Justification: the maintainer currently has 17 open RC bugs (not
counting those fixed in NMUs).  Several NMUs were done, at least two
packages (pwlib, usbview) have already been hihacked, the maintainer
does not respond to mails.
