I don't know who uploaded that version, but I'm no longer maintaining

And how does that concern me? I didn't send that mail to you, I send it
to the BTS which send it to you...
Anyway:
- Christian Bayle uploaded the package but did not remove Wichert as
Maintainer. He instead added himself as uploader
I was in uploaders
- There is an ITA bug (#425860), owned by Michelle Konzack
Sorry I didn't see this
So there seems to be indeed some confusion about who maintains this
package...
Yep
Gruesse,
Some history,
The project was inactive http://sf.net/projects/sysauth-pgsql
Russell Smith <http://pgfoundry.org/users/mr-russ/> added shadow support
and made some improvements on
http://pgfoundry.org/projects/sysauth/
Probably at the same time we set an alioth project
http://alioth.debian.org/projects/nsspampgsql/ to maintain and make some
improvement
In both project conf file format was changed
We need this package for gforge/alioth
There are still some bug in the package (futex problem), so we tried to
see if this is also in 1.4 from pgfoundry, thats why I uploaded the
quick upgrade I made in experimental.
The problem is that 1.4 and 1.3 have different format
It should be rather easy to add support from 1.3 format in 1.4, but I 'm
not sure this has to be done.
Essentially it would make easy the upgrade
Help welcome, and I have no particular will to be maintainer/developer
of this package.
We should also think how we articulate changes with pgfoundry code, to
avoid code fork.
Your thought ?
Christian
