Package: hotot
Version: 1:0.9.7.32+git20111213.1d89daf-1.1
Severity: grave
Tags: upstream
Control: fixed -1 1:0.9.8.14-2

Dear Maintainer,

The version of hotot in wheezy is currently unusable with Twitter (though the
identi.ca backend may work, I did not test). The problem is that it uses
Twitter's 1.0 API, which has been retired on June 11, 2013.

There are two possible solutions:

- upload a new upstream release to wheezy, though I doubt the Release Team
  would accept that;

- or remove hotot from wheezy, and upload a recent version to wheezy-backports.

The second solution should be very easy to implement: I was able to compile
hotot 1:0.9.8.14-2 on wheezy without any change to the source package.

Cheers,

--
