Bug#1012666: ITS: wget2

Followup-For: Bug #1012666

Hi Boyuan,

A couple of review comments and a question for your wget2 copyright file:

  - As an execption, the 'include' directory (partly used for autogenerated
header file content) should be licensed under LGPL instead of GPL, I think.

  - It could be worthwhile to add an 'Upstream-Contact' entry in the file;
if there is no clear individual, then perhaps this could be a hyperlink to
the wget mailing lists[1].

  - Are the standalone license clauses necessary?  Both GPL-3 and LGPL-3
appear under /usr/share/common-licenses/ on Debian (bookworm) here.

Thank you for the ITS.

Regards,
James

It looks like the new version comes with a SONAME bump (libwget0 ->
libwget1) so we will need another round of copyright check. I have finished
an initial packaging refresh but not the copyright review. Please find the
initial version of debian/ directory in the attachment. We can make further
improvement based on this version.

Thanks,
Boyuan Yang

Thank you for your email.
I will be able to work on the package in July (Debconf22) but you are
welcome to do a NMU before.:) A DELAYED/2 will be fine for me.

Thank you for your help and work.

Dear wget2 package maintainer in Debian,

After looking into the package you maintain (wget2, 
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/wget2), I found that this package
received no maintainer updates in the past 4 years and missed several upstream
releases. The request of making new uploads at https://bugs.debian.org/951354
was not solved as well. As a result, I am filing an ITS (Intent to Salvage)
request against your package according to section 5.12 in Debian's Developers'
Reference [1].

My current plan is to package the latest upstream release (2.0.1) and
clean up existing bugs.

Please let me know whether you are still willing to maintain this
package. According to the criteria listed at [2], I will upload a Non-
maintainer Upload (NMU) of this package onto DELAYED/7 after 21 days
(July 02, 2022) to continue with the package salvaging. If you find it
necessary to pause the ITS process, please let me know immediately by
replying this bug report.
