Dear Sirs, 1) Problem
`clisp' and `clisp-module-clx' are not in Debian 8 (jessie) which now stable. 2) Context I am the developer of WP-MIRROR, a utility for building a local mirror of any wiki published by the Wikimedia Foundation [0]. WP-MIRROR is written in Common Lisp. It is distributed as a DEB package [1], and depends on `clisp' and `clisp-module-clx'. Version 0.7.4 is tuned for Debian 7 (wheezy). I am working on version 0.8.0 which will be tuned for Debian 8 (jessie). 3) Solutions I would like your advice as to which route to take: a) build my own DEB packages for `clisp' and `clisp-module-clx' for jessie; or b) request you to push `clisp' and `clisp-module-clx' to jessie-backports. I took the first route for `mediawiki', because the DEB package hosted by Debian is built from a source that is too far out of date. I would prefer the second route for `clisp' given that it is only a matter of packaging and not a matter of the source being out of date. Please let me know what next steps you would recommend for a `clisp' user in my position. Sincerely Yours, Kent [0] Home: <http://www.nongnu.org/wp-mirror/>, < http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wp-mirror> [1] DEB: <http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/wp-mirror/>
