Hi, An update on this RFP, since the original details are out of date: * Package name : git-bug Version : 0.11.0 * URL : https://github.com/git-bug/git-bug (moved from github.com/MichaelMure/git-bug) * License : GPL-3+ <check against upstream LICENSE> Programming Lang: Go Upstream is actively maintained. Besides the CLI, git-bug now has an interactive terminal UI, a web UI and bridges that import and export issues from GitHub, GitLab, Jira and Launchpad. There is now a concrete user in Debian: b4 0.16 (the kernel mailing-list workflow tool) has a "b4 bugs" subcommand built on git-bug. b4 tracks bug reports from lore.kernel.org threads as git-bug bugs stored alongside the project repository. It needs git-bug >= 0.10.1. Its Python binding, python3-ezgb, is already in Debian, but the subcommand can't work without the git-bug binary. I've filed #1150827 against b4 and marked it as blocked by this bug. I've also filed #1150829 against python3-ezgb and marked it as blocked by this bug. It would still fit the Debian Go Packaging Team. The Go library dependencies still need to be checked for which ones are already in the archive. Cheers! Chris
