Bug#851797: RFA: dphys-config -- Tool to distribute config files by fetching them



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

neither me nor my co-maintainer (Cc'ed) use dphys-config anymore,
hence we we can't provide the proper amount of awareness about its
issues anymore.

So it would be nice if the package would be maintained by someone
who's actually using it on a daily base and keeps up the high
standards I had for the package when I was still using it.

Package Description:

  Tool to distribute config files by fetching them

  This project is aimed at automatically installing (and keeping
  update) site specific config files on many hosts, after preprocessing
  them (conditional content and include files and include sections). It
  also triggers postinstall scripts whenever their associated config
  file has been changed. It can also remove config files, including
  running an preremove script before doing so. All this is driven by an
  simple config file list.

  dphys-config is capable of reporting update failure or success to a
  Xymon (formerly Hobbit) monitoring server.

  dphys-config features an interactive mode and a non-interactive diff
  mode to check what would be updated.

We'll nevertheless continue to keep it in shape, at least with regards
to release-critical bugs.

Accordingly this RFA may only be changed to "O:" by myself, my
co-maintainer, with my or my co-maintainer's acknowledgement or if the
MIA team considers both of us being MIA.

		Regards, Axel
