Bug#206878: O: dbd-xbase -- Perl module to access xbase files (optionally through DBI).
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
The current maintainer of dbd-xbase, Paolo Molaro <lupus@debian.org>,
is apparently not active anymore. Therefore, I orphan this package
now. If you want to be the new maintainer, please take it -- see
http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/index.html#howto-o for detailed
instructions how to adopt a package properly.

Description: Perl module to access xbase files (optionally through DBI).
This module allows access to .dbf files (it can create them, also),
it handles memo files, but indexes only in a somewhat limited way.
It has two interfaces: one using SQL commands (through DBI) ad the other
with a simple OO interface.
You can use the dbfdump program to dump the content of a .dbf file.
Justification: Outstanding RC bugs, was contacted several times about other
issues, said he'd fix but didn't. Got many NMUs. dh-make-perl: 3 NMUs,
jitterbug: 3 NMUs, libcorba-orbit-perl: 1 NMU, libglade: 7 NMUs, libgnome-
gnorba-perl: 1 NMU, libgtk-perl: 6 NMUs.
