Hello!
I am branching this off to its own topic to keep the communication clear.
First of all, a recap of current status:
- Python 2 colortest got removed from Debian repos in September 2019:
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/colortest-python
- Pablo has packaged Python 3 colortest and with my sponsoring it was
submitted to Debian, and has been sitting in the NEW queue for a month
now: https://ftp-master.debian.org/new/colortest-python_3.0.1-1.html
- Debian ftp-masters are overworked, the NEW queue processing will
take some time
- We have not had any feedback whatsoever from the ftp-masters yet
And then to the tasks at hand:

Pablo: using this link you can see all bugs (also archived ones) for
colortest-python:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?archive=both;src=colortest-python
The status is currently "closed" for all of them, since they got
mass-closed when the package was removed from Debian. From
https://ftp-master.debian.org/removals-2019.txt:
=
[Date: Sun, 08 Sep 2019 04:42:39 +] [ftpmaster: Scott Kitterman]
Removed the following packages from unstable:
colortest-python | 2.2-1 | source, all
Closed bugs: 920127
--- Reason ---
python2-only; orphaned; dead upstream; low popcon
--
Also closing bug(s): 753281 782208 890074 936320
Also closing WNPP bug(s):
=
The mass-closed ones should be unarchived and reopened as Paul Wise
suggest. Please do that.
Then later, when the new colortest-python enters Debian, you can close
all of these bugs since looking at the subjects, they are all fixed in
the new upload.
Regarding bugs, you should also submit a new bug report where you
state that you intend to adopt this package. We can then ask
ftp-masters to add their NEW queue feedback into this new bug report,
which basically would be:
***
To: sub...@bugs.debian.org
Title: ITA: colortest-python -- utility to test color capabilities of terminal
***
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
Hello!
I would like to adopt this package.
Work has already been done at
https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/applications/colortest-python
and package submitted to NEW in
https://ftp-master.debian.org/new/colortest-python_3.0.1-1.html
***
After that we keep waiting for the ftp-masters to review.
