Package: vnstat
Severity: important
The primary developer of vnstat (Teemu Toivola) alerted me to the status of the
vnstat package in Debian (in response to me sending him a report about a minor
cosmetic bug) and he mentioned that vnstat is now eligible for "salvaging".
Having checked the Debian Package Salvaging wiki [1] Teemu appears to be
correct due this criteria being satisfied:
* The last upload was a NMU [2] and there was no maintainer upload within one
year.
Thus, it is my intent to take over maintainership of this package for Debian,
with the following brief comments about this intention:
- vnstat is an excellent command line network traffic monitor
- vnstat 2.x brings many improvements and fixes
- vnstat 2.0 was released 21 Oct 2018 (10 months ago)
- New build of vnstat 2.4 for Ubuntu based systems has been created by me [3]
- New package of vnstat 2.4 for Debian has been created as a Salsa project [4]
- New mentors package upload was created from git clone of this new project [5]
A concurrent bug report to the sponsorship-requests psuedo-package is being
made to gain sponsorship for the upload to the mentors server. It is my intent
to become a Debian package maintainer in due course, starting out with doing
sponsored maintenance of vnstat.
Thank you,
Rob Savoury
