Bug#993271: RFA: ninka -- license identification tool for source code



Hi Luka,

I'd like to  try to adopt this package.
From the raspberry pi community, I had some experience of deb package with tools like dpkg-buildpackage, debuild and gbp.

I think I can start the adoption from solving the problem of uscan, which I saw on the Developer Information page.
Do you have already some info/idea/limitations ... for the solution?

From my understanding,  the upstream tarball should be got from github/dmgerman/ninka.
And at moment it should be from version 1.3.2
But there is no  tag/treeid/tarball... for 1.3.2 in the repository.
Would it be a good idea by sending an email to ask dmgerman?

BR,
Zhi
