Looking in the salsa repo [0], it is very old. And that shouldn't
happen. I
can updated to the last unstable version tonight/tomorrow.
Just to improve my knowledge about Debian processes: What does it mean
to update the salsa repo to the current upstream? Is it the same as
create a new package? Or is it just one step into creating a new
package?
Or, perhaps Christian (the initial of this thread) can/want to do it
(Christian,
write to me if you need help)?
Not yet, thanks. I am to fresh and will focus on one package only
("feedparser") to improve my learning.
But I will look at "xlsxwriter" and learn.
btw: I am not sure if this list is the right place. But the DPMT is
named as "uploaders" of that package. And I am confused about that the
"maintainer" is a ubuntu-list (Team?).
That would be great, but I would leave it to the current maintainer to
do
that, also seems to be a group ¿?. I cc to the maintainer(s).
They still answered my question on their own list:
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/checkbox-devel/2021-September/000491.html
They do not want to maintain anymore. And they asked about open a WNPP
for it.
This would have been my question, too. If we do not create a new package
version now how could we document the new information's about the
maintainership somewhere for someone in the future?
As a newcomer, I am taking a step back so as not to cause more trouble.
;) I would like to suggest that someone from the experienced DD here
answer the maintainer direct what the next steps should be and who
should do them. Would be nice if you could put me into CC.
Kind
Christian
