Thanks for this ITP initiative. > This packages was already part of Debian, but got removed because of an > RC bug that didn't get fixed (see #1081589), and in general because of > lack of maintenance. I adopted the package (in agreement the previous > maintainer), fixed its bugs and plan to re-upload it to Debian soon. Maybe you can document what's different from the legacy squid-deb-proxy package. For instance, it seems the client binary package was dropped. Also, I had started similar work[1] but never went for pushing it to the Debian archive. As I never understood to separate squid instance scenario, I chose to integrate into the system squid instance. If you think this is usefull I can work on supporting this in the package. I also use a Makefile to build acls, maybe it's interesting. [1] https://sml.zincube.net/~niol/repositories.git/squid-debproxy-conf/about/ Thanks, Alex
