Package: make Version: 4.3-4.1 Severity: important X-Debbugs-Cc: Manoj Srivastava <sriva...@debian.org>, Victor Westerhuis <vic...@westerhu.is>, m...@qa.debian.org
Dear Maintainer, I intend to salvage the make-dsfg source package and the associated make-doc-non-dfsg package, which have been effectively unmaintained for over four years. There have been no non-NMU uploads since June 2020 and no BTS activity since May 2020. https://bugs.debian.org/1029106 requesting an updated package (for new upstream releases published in October 2022 and February 2023) has had input from a number of people but no maintainer reaction. I haven’t discussed this with Victor, I wanted to get the salvaging clock ticking; but if Victor is still interested in maintaining the package I will gladly act as sponsor. I’ve reviewed the updated packaging at https://salsa.debian.org/viccie30/make-dfsg and it seems mostly fine to me; I’m updating it to include the upstream 4.4.1. See https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.en.html#package-salvaging for details on the salvaging process. You have 21 days to approve this change or object to it; if that delay expires with no reaction on your part, I will upload an updated package to the delayed queue with a seven-day delay. With no reaction on your part I will replace you as maintainer, adding any interested co-maintainers. Regards, Stephen
