Hello,
I am looking for sponsor for a NMU of cdrdao:
changelog:
--------------------------
cdrdao (1:1.1.7-0.1) unstable; urgency=high
.
* Urgency high because it fixes copyright issues.
* New upstream version 1.1.7 (Closes: #161885)
- Don't use and depend on non-free libedc any more (Closes: #162788)
* Use config.sub and config.guess from autotools-dev (add build-dependeny)
* remove and generate symlinks in RULES for ia64 parisc(64) and s390
The last NMU copied the files for s390 instead, making the patch grow.
* These two things could fix 116782, at least partially.
* Update Build-Deps: libgtkmm-dev >= 1.2.9
--------------------------
The bug #162788 was submitted on 2002-09-29, severity was raised to
serious on 2002-10-02, I've told the maintainer on 2002-10-07 (monday)
that I was going to try to NMU today if he did not respond and added a
patch to the BTS. I've not received any reaction from him yet.
I've no idea why Martin Mitchell does not respond, he is probavly
simply too busy. According to
http://qa.debian.org/developer.php/developer.php?package=cdrdao
he is not MIA - his last upload was on 2002-09-06 (eject).
Whatever, I think the situation - the version of cdrdao in debian is
not non-free but illegal - justifies a NMU to DELAYED/9-day.
The packages are available on

thanks, cu andreas
