Hi Adrien, I am sorry I did not answer you before, I do not read this list very often. As you might know, koffice is not going to be around a lot of time longer in Debian and it is going to be replaced by Calligra. If you want to help, a needed task is looking at all the pending bugs and: - checking what are fixed in Calligra (action: mark them with a user-tag) - what bugs do not apply anymore (action: close them) - what bugs should be forwarded to upstream.(action you forward them to kde bugzilla [1] [2] [1] http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/usertags.html (e.g. usertag fixed-calligra) [2] http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/btslink.html http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/kde-bugzilla-survival-guide.html If you want to take a look at calligra packages, there is a repo with a ver minimal packaging at: http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-kde/kde-std/calligra.git;a=summary that makes a big calligra.deb. Note, that only can be used to test calligra without corrupting your system. Ana -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-qt-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
