Hello, I am writing to both of you: Gustavo Franco and Michael Vogt, because you are the Debian maintainers of gdebi package. Until I know, Ubuntu Core Developers <ubuntu-devel-disc...@lists.ubuntu.com> are upstream developers of gdebi. I write this because you seems to have lost interest in gdebi package, or you may haven't enough time to maintain it. It is reflected by the very out of date version of gdebi in debian, it is 0.3.11 while 0.5.2 is already released. I uploaded 0.4.0 version to debian-mentors several time ago and anybody paid atention to it. You can consider to contact with Ubuntu Core Developers and propose them to package gdebi for Debian and make a sync of it to Ubuntu. But I know that it is hardy to expect that Ubuntu Core Developers to package it for Debian, so you (or we) surely will need to do the work.
I would like to know if you plan to continue maintaining gdebi package, i can help packaging new versions of gdebi if you haven't time and upload them to debian-mentors. Or if you have lost any insterest, look for another maintainer. Thanks you very much by your atention. Cheers.
