Bug#291109: RFA: dh-make-perl -- Create debian packages from perl modules
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
Heya,
I'm searching a maintainer for the dh-make-perl package. I don't have
that much free time and my interest in maintaing the really *bad* code
for dh-make-perl faded in the last few months.
The package description is:
dh-make-perl will create the files required to build a debian source
package out of a perl package. This works for most simple packages
and is also useful for getting started with packaging perl modules.
Given a perl package name, it can also automatically download it from
CPAN.
An Alioth project with an existing CVS is available and I'll add the
next maintainer to the admin list.
There are some bug reports, some easily solvable, others needing a
rework of the whole code. I was planning to do a rewrite to get rid of
the old, not very structured code, but never did so.
Anyway, i'd be happy to give the package away to someone doing more for
its users. Please contact me before actually adopting the package,
thanks.
Marc
