Package: wnpp Severity: normal The current maintainer of newsflash, Matthias Kabel <mkabel@debian.org>, does not take care of this package any more. 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. Some information about this package: Package: newsflash Priority: optional Section: news Installed-Size: 124 Maintainer: Matthias Kabel <mkabel@debian.org> Architecture: i386 Version: 0.99-6.1 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3.2-1) Filename: pool/main/n/newsflash/newsflash_0.99-6.1_i386.deb Size: 16590 MD5sum: ab198db1f460184dce5ec0c7b338c314 Description: Get news with the newnews command from a server The Newsflash program retrieves news articles via NNTP from one server and delivers them to another. It requires at least read-only permissions on the remote server, and needs to have peer permissions on the local server. It works well with INN, but should also work with any other RFC977 compliant news software. Newsflash's highly parallel design is optimized for throughput, which makes quite a difference to INN's nntpget and the like. Justification: Last maintainer upload 2000-11-08. Unacknowleged NMU 2003-08-21. Last reaction of the maintainer to any of the currently open bug reports on 2001-04-30 (#95249). No answer to mail.
