Bug#395573: visit: changing back from ITP to RFP
This is a note to say I have been working on visit packaging, but am
unlikely to complete
before December due to completing a PhD. VisIt packaging has been
mostly delayed
awaiting vtk6 to be properly integrated and packaged in Debian (thus not
requiring
a separate visit-vtk).
I have uploaded my work to date to alioth.debian.org (pkg-visit) where
is can be downloaded
via git.debian.org:/git/pkg-visit/pkg-visit.git
regards
