Dear Carles,

Thanks for the warning. From

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/gfsview

it seems that the problem comes from:

uscan had problems while searching for a new upstream version:

In watchfile debian/watch, reading webpage
http://gerris.dalembert.upmc.fr/gerris/tarballs/ failed: 500 Can't connect to gerris.dalembert.upmc.fr:443 (certificate verify failed)

I checked and there is indeed a problem with the certificate.

I will fix it and tell you when it is done.

It would be good to have gfsview (and gfsview-batch) back in testing.

thanks for your help,

Stephane

Dear maintainer(s),

I noticed that package gerris recommends gfsview, which is currently not
available in unstable.

See:

- https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/gfsview

The source package "gfsview" has there binaries: gfsview-batch,
libgfsgl-dev and libgfsgl0t64.

Perhaps gerris should recommend gfsview-batch? Or perhaps it used to be
a package named "gfsview" that doesn't exist anymore.

Would it make sense to remove or update it?

Thank you for your time,
