Do you mean apart from persuading the copyright holder (Facebook, Inc.) to re-license hhvm under more general DFSG-free terms, such as the 3-clause BSD license? Your help in getting this issue solved would be highly appreciated, I think. Please re-read http://bugs.debian.org/727085#60 for further details on the licensing issue. > My method of packaging our release is very clowny (I compile the > binary and then copy it into a directory with the skeleton for the package > and then build that with dpkg -b) so I'd rather someone else with more > debian experience build a proper package for us. I think László (who reads us in Cc) is still interested in packaging hhvm for inclusion in Debian. At least the bug is still an ITP bug and still owned by László, hence, unless he has just changed his mind, he should be still willing to work on the packaging... I suggest you to get in touch with László and ask him whether and how you can help. Thanks for being a Debian-friendly upstream developer and for offering to help!
