Hello everyone, I am looking for a new home for kcollectd, a tool for viewing log information, that was recently removed from unstable because it lacked a Qt 5 port [1]. I have ported that package and I've taken over the upstream (which has been dead for years) [2]. I'm offering to maintain the Debian package, and I've been directed here, at the suggestion of another DD, because this community may have interest in helping out with this package.
Of note, I spoke with Scott Kitterman, who requested the removal of kcollectd, and he said he knows of no other reason the package should be removed. The updated packaging fixes several outstanding bugs, and makes the Debian lintian report much cleaner (one is, I believe, a false positive, and the other is due to lack of package tests which aren't really relevant to this kind of UI software). Is anyone here willing to sponsor this package, offer any criticism of the package, or further direct me to a place where I might get such help? Thank you, Antonio Russo [1] https://bugs.debian.org/935223 [2] https://gitlab.com/aerusso/kcollectd [3] https://bugs.debian.org/935485
