Ah, sorry, missed that part when I read through the history of this
bug report. For a long time, BartM had a bug in his script retitling
WNPP bug reports from ITA to O even if they were just RFA beforehand,
so I expected this to be an victim of that bug, too,
Anyway, in that case I've likely done just the right thing. So thanks
for the clarification. :-)
I intent to take care of the package under the QA umbrella in case of
RC bugs or similar.
But if I'd ever take over the package alone respectively its
development, I likely have to rewrite tests/run-tests in another
language. Testing Perl scripts with Python scripts is definitely not
my way of doing such things, especially if TAP is not used.
So I'd really prefer if a team would take it over. And I still think
that the Lintian team would be the most appropriate team for that.
Regards, Axel
