Gerber van der Graaf, who originally packaged the freefoam-0.1.0-1
package asked me to add myself directly to the uploaders and asking for
sponsorship instead of going through him.
I think with the modifications I made I fixed some important bugs, some
of which I would consider to be RC. E.g. 0.1.0-1 contained some non-free
source and documentation files. Also, the documentation as it is
currently installed is pretty buggy and does not work as expected. Also,
the *.so symlinks where not split off into the libfreefoam-dev package.
Please review the bugs at
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=freefoam, and add
comments or change the importance as required.
Some of the bugs are fixed in the upload at m.d.n are not RC, but still
pretty annoying. To get a freeze-exception, would I need to remove those
changes? Also, would this upload to to unstable, or to testing directly?
Lastly, what is the appropriate revision number? I chose to stick with 1
since I added the +dfsg suffix, but I'm not sure this is appropriate
since it is also the second revision based on
