Package: wnpp Severity: normal I request assistance with maintaining the apt-cross package.
For my reasons, see: http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/serendipity/index.php?/archives/178-Why-I-missed-DebConf9.html For background, see: http://lists.debian.org/debian-embedded/2009/08/msg00005.html and for what needs to be done, see: http://lists.debian.org/debian-embedded/2009/08/msg00016.html The main issue with apt-cross is already filed as a bug: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=502433 Those who help with apt-cross should also help with emdebian-tools and vice-versa. See bug # 540333 The package description is: apt-cross is intended to make it easier to locate, download, install and update your cross-compiling libraries, directly from the Debian archives. . By default, apt-cross uses /etc/apt/sources.list to find the current Debian package file for the architecture specified (or dpkg-cross default) and in the suite specified (default is unstable). Alternatively, you can specify a different mirror. Downloaded files can be passed directly to dpkg-cross using the -b or -i commands to apt-cross. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
