I've been maintaining it in Ubuntu since my original offer to take
over this ITP on 29 Sep 2008 was turned down. I maintain a number of
other packages directly in Debian, and would certainly be happy to
maintain Sakura as well. I made a few small tweaks to get it ready for
Debian. If you'd like to sponsor the upload, it can be found on
mentors:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/sakura
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
main contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/sakura/sakura_2.3.8-1.dsc
I also pushed a Debian branch to:
https://code.launchpad.net/~andrewsomething/sakura/debian
I left the Ubuntu history in the changelog. I'm not sure if that's
correct. Please let me know.
Thanks,
Andrew Starr-Bochicchio
