Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

[Please add me to your CC list.]

I request an adopter for the "kbd" package.

Actually it was never my intention to maintain "kbd", but its
maintainer was the group "Console utilities maintainers" and it seems
currently I am the only member of this group... :)

Here are the reasons why I am unable to maintain "kbd" properly and
why a new maintainer is wanted:

  1. I have absolutely no experience in compiling utilities like the
     utilities in "kbd".  I am not sure I will be able to fix
     any compilation errors if such errors occur.

  2. While I have some experience in the script part of the package, I
     can not effectively watch these scripts because their effect is
     canceled by the scripts in the package console-setup (which I
     maintain).

  3. (This is not a kbd-related problem.)  Recently I am unable to
     process the email messages I receive as promptly, as a Debian
     maintainer should do.

I think the package is currently in a more or less clean state.  I
haven't fixed #443645 and #443606 because I think the new maintainer
should decide what should be done (these bugs are easy to fix but they
allow two alternative solutions).  There are patches in BTS about
#190385, #190386 and may be #190387 but I haven't tried to fix things
I don't understand.  As of #399531, in BTS there is a suggestion how
to fix.  And the only bug without a solution in BTS is #437248.

 .
   * Acknowledge changes from non-maintainer upload by Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt,
     closes: #459156.
   * New upstream version.
   * Removed now unnecessary build-dependencies on flex and bison.
   * Added myself to uploaders, closes: #446030
   * Remove debian/patches directory and build dependency on quilt.  Package
     maintenance now happens in a Git repository.
   * Make openvt pay attention to its child’s exit status.  Patch by Jim Paris,
     closes: #190386.
   * Avoid openvt messing up the child’s I/O caused by closing a standard file
     descriptor.  Patch by Jim Paris, closes: #190385.
   * Handle the CapsShift modifier understood by Linux kernels since 2.6.24.
     Patch by Samuel Thibault, closes: #452103.
   * Bump Standards-Version to 3.7.3.
   * Move dumpkeys and unicode_start to /bin.  This avoids problems when /usr
     is not yet mounted when /etc/init.d/keymap.sh (package console-common) is
     executed.  Thanks to Christian Perrier, Denis Barbier and others,
     closes: #261801.
   * Make upstream makefile not strip binaries to enable the nostrip build
     option, closes: #437248.
   * The Debian copyright file is now available in machine-readable format.
     The passage about kbd’s history was removed from it; upstream’s CREDITS
     file is shipped instead, as it includes the same information.
   * Added Vcs-Git and Vcs-Browser fields to debian/control.
