Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I request assistance with maintaining the apt-listbugs package.

The other co-maintainer (Ryan Niebur) is currently almost MIA and
finally told me that he no longer wants to be involved in apt-listbugs
maintenance: see <http://bugs.debian.org/588636> and
<http://git.debian.org/?p=apt-listbugs/apt-listbugs.git;a=commitdiff;h=b999e0ba2f3c03ee367e45d7e8de4abbfe892457>
if you want to read the full story...

I would say that the package is generally in a decent shape:
it normally works as intended, lintian does not complain about it,
its non-pending bug count is decreasing
(see <http://qa.debian.org/data/bts/graphs/a/apt-listbugs.png>),
I usually manage to deal with bug reports and go ahead with developing
work by myself, ...

However, I sometimes need help with Ruby (I am not yet the Ruby expert
I would dream to be!) or with packaging techniques (I am still learning
them!).

Hence, I would like to find someone else who could co-maintain the
package with me.

The ideal candidate

 * has experience with the Ruby language

 * knows how to use Git

 * has Debian packaging experience

 * is willing to dedicate some time to this package (the amount of
   needed time is not big: I will mostly need some review of my work,
   and occasionally some help on stuff I am not too expert at)

Bonus points if the candidate is a DD or a DM, since I have no upload
rights (and hence I would need a sponsor for each upload, in the
absence of a DD or DM co-maintainer).

Thanks in advance to anyone who volunteers!



The package description is:
 apt-listbugs is a tool which retrieves bug reports from the Debian Bug
 Tracking System and lists them. Especially, it is intended to be invoked
 before each upgrade/installation by apt in order to check whether the
 upgrade/installation is safe.
 .
 Many developers and users prefer the unstable version of Debian for its new
 features and packages.  apt, the usual upgrade tool, can break your system by
 installing a buggy package.
 .
 apt-listbugs lists critical bug reports from the Debian Bug Tracking System.
 Run it before apt to see if an upgrade or installation is known to be unsafe.

Changes:

 .
   [ Francesco Poli (wintermute) ]
   * fixed "po-debconf: usage text - options v, p and P have not dot at the
     end" (Closes: #569214)
   * fixed "crashes after requesting a web browser listing": use
     Locale.charset instead of Locale.codeset to adapt for a libgettext-ruby
     change (Closes: #572192)
   * fixed "Should not depends on transitional libhttp-access2-ruby1.8
     package" (Closes: #574075)
   * fixed and clarified man page about proxy configuration
   * switched to dpkg-source 3.0 (native) format
   * dropped the requirement for the user to set soap_use_proxy environment
     variable (this ruby module interface should not be exposed to application
     users: see also bug #399706)
   * dropped the obsolete /usr/share/doc/apt-listbugs/examples/proxy/ directory
   * changed exit status for errors encountered when reading bug reports: the
     right exit status is 1 ("something is wrong", as documented in the man
     page), not 10 (which is reserved for warning APT not to proceed)
   * added minimal handling of errors encountered when reading package fields
   * bumped Standards-Version to 3.9.1: no changes needed
   * enhanced stylistic consistency in questions to user
   * fixed "please enhance safety in case of network problems, when stdout
     is not a terminal": do not ask if the user wants to abort in case of
     network problems, ask if the user wants to continue anyway, instead
     (Closes: #598076)
   * dropped Ryan from the Maintainer field, since he will no longer be
     involved in apt-listbugs maintenance
   * fixed "scary message on interruption": enhanced SIGINT trapping in
     early stages of runtime (Closes: #605039)
   * fixed "leaves problematic apt configuration fragment if in config-
     files status and unpack fails": added code for the abort-install case
     to the postrm script (Closes: #611913)
   * changed my e-mail address
   * re-added (a slightly modified version of) the git-tag.sh internal script
   * credit for a new co-maintainer: welcome on board, Thomas Mueller!
     (Closes: #600879)
 .
   [ Ryan Niebur ]
   * updated German translation, thanks Thomas Mueller! (Closes: #578305)
   * flush stdin after running the web browser (Closes: #578299)
 .
   [ Thomas Mueller ]
   * added myself to the Uploaders field
