Bug#991815: RFA: sfst -- Stuttgart finite-state transducer tools

[Rico Sennrich <rico.sennrich@gmx.ch>]

Hello Akshay,

thank you for your interest in adopting the package!

I uploaded the git repository I used for maintaining SFST to
https://salsa.debian.org/rsennrich/sfst

It's missing the changes that Roland Stigge made in the last version
(1.4.7b-1), but should be a good starting point regardless. I'm
unfortunately hazy about the exact workflow (part of the reason I'm
giving the package up for adoption), but syncing in the new upstream
version, then merging that the debian-specific changes (in
patch-queue/master) would be the first steps before you then build and
test the package.

best wishes,
Rico
