Hi Santiago, If you are ready to sponsor it, I'm definitely going to resurrect that packaging effort (I still have the files, I'm pretty sure they will need some updates for the newer packaging standards, since myself I only cared about making it buildable for my own use). One of the things I'm using it for myself is https://github.com/vyos/ipaddrcheck , which I also would like to contribute to Debian, but it can only be done when libcidr is there.
On a side note, it would be nice if most of the quality assurance
process could be done without human intervention so that potential
sponsors would instantly know if they aree going to work with packaging
that is violating the guidelines or is outright broken or not.
