Actually, Roman is still the buildd admin for kullervo. That doesn't mean he's terribly active, but he's still involved. I would pick up the package if I had an atari, which I don't. -- Wouter Verhelst Debian GNU/Linux -- http://www.debian.org Nederlandstalige Linux-documentatie -- http://nl.linux.org "Stop breathing down my neck."

It seems clear that the package has already been orphaned; filing a bug against wnpp for it is merely a formality. ISTR that Roman is not actively involved in m68k development anymore, so it wouldn't surprise me that he's not taking an interest in this package. -- Steve Langasek postmodern programmer pgpfmNHydF7OV.pgp Description: PGP signature
Bug 70132 (on atari-fdisk)
This is a very old FTBFS bug (28 Aug 2000), which was closed in 23 Aug 2003 and reopened in 3 Sep 2003. After this, Frank Lichtenheld comments: > Hi. > > I verified that it builds correctly with an added Build-Depends to > debhelper. > > But before producing a NMU patch I wonder if this package should be > orphaned. Last upload 2 years ago was a NMU, a few simple to fix, long > outstanding bugs... I agree with Frank. This is quite an old bug, I also managed to build it correctly with debhelper. I think this should be brought to debian-devel. Does anyone object orphaning this package? Is anyone willing to adopt it? It is a base package, priority required for m68k, and otherosfs priority: extra for all other architectures.
