Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I am hereby orphaning the frozen-bubble package. The new SDL Perl 
bindings require an update of frozen-bubble to version 2.2.1~beta1. 
However in this version, in order to support Windows, upstream decided 
to switch to a NIH build system that needs Perl modules to run perl 
scripts to generate perl makefiles that run perl scripts that finally 
build a perl program.

  PERLCEPTION

Maintaining this game has been a lot of fun but it obviously needs to be 
passed on to someone who knows how to maintain NIH perl build systems. 
I certainly do not intend to maintain new CPAN modules just for a build 
system.

The package description is:
 Frozen-Bubble is a clone of the popular "Puzzle Bobble" game, in which
 you attempt to shoot bubbles into groups of the same color to cause them
 to pop. It features 100 single-player levels, a two-player mode, music
 and striking graphics.
 .
 This game is widely rumored to be responsible for delaying the Woody
 release.

I have put an updated version of the packaging in collab-maint’s SVN 
repository, so anyone feel free to pick it up and start over.

Cheers,
