4.  Packages needing a new maintainer

Please inform [EMAIL PROTECTED] via e-mail:

  o  when you find that you'd like to discontinue maintaining a package

Please inform [EMAIL PROTECTED] and the mainatiner of the package:

  o  when you would like to maintain one of the packages.


J.H.M. Dassen (Ray) [EMAIL PROTECTED] :

  o  lesstif.

   Maintaining the package itself is not difficult - the packaging is
   reasonably straight-forward. The difficulty with this package lies
   in the fact that LessTif still suffers from many bugs (e.g. a
   memory leak showing up with xmcd, locking up X with nedit and DDD)
   and some missing features. The ideal maintainer would be somebody
   who is familiar with debugging X stuff, and who is prepared to work
   closely with the upstream developers

wnpp o Removed perl documentaion from works in progress, as the
wnpp provided manpages are sufficient.

 There really needs to be a `perl-info' package, with the Perl TeXinfo
 docs in it.  `cperl-mode' in the emacs editors has the ability to
 look up perl functions in the info.  It's indispensable.

 Yes, I should `bug' the maintainer... ;-)

  Programs listed in this section aren't yet available as Debian

  If you want to create a Debian package, send me an e-mail.
  
  6.1.  Programming and development:
  6.3.  Graphics:
  6.4.  X11:

Don't know in which of your section it would enter, but I suggest
someone packages the Khoros system (Huge development stuff mainly
aimed at data manipulation, with a powerful visual programming
language, toolboxes for signal and image processing, 2/3D data
visualization, matrix calculus, etc.)

As I understand it, although a version of Khoros is freely available, KRI
(the company that created Khoros) reserves the right to distribute Khoros to
itself.  Also, if this beast were packaged for Debian, everybody would be
repartitioning their systems to fit it (this application is why my /usr/local
is 500M)!

Paul Rightley


It was one of the systems I had planned to package when I joined
Debian at first, but I never found enough time to start it.

In case anybody wants to take a look at it, primary site was
ftp://ftp.khoros.unm.edu last year, I think it would have stayed the
same ;)

  6.1.  Programming and development:
  6.3.  Graphics:
  6.4.  X11:

Don't know in which of your section it would enter, but I suggest
someone packages the Khoros system (Huge development stuff mainly
aimed at data manipulation, with a powerful visual programming
language, toolboxes for signal and image processing, 2/3D data
visualization, matrix calculus, etc.)

It was one of the systems I had planned to package when I joined
Debian at first, but I never found enough time to start it.

In case anybody wants to take a look at it, primary site was
ftp://ftp.khoros.unm.edu last year, I think it would have stayed the
same ;)

  o  ACE http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE.html (a free C++
 library)

Hey, I haven't even got my Debian CD yet! Once I install Debian on my
system (and wipe out Slakware), I'll take ACE and package
it. Unless someone's onto this already? I'm actively using ACE, so I
think I can handle the task. Also, if nobody is taking care of Linux
Threads (a kernel-level multi-threading package), I'll tackle that
too, since ACE works best on Linux when built atop lxthreads instead
of Provenzano (MIT) pthreads.

I need a newer varsion of svgalib for a program (XaoS) I want to package
up for debian. Is this package orphaned? Is anyone else planning on
taking over maintaining it? I don't really want to take on such an
important package myself (too new at this).

  1.  General Questions

  1.1.  What is Debian GNU/Linux

  Please read the Debian GNU/Linux FAQ. The Debian GNU/Linux WWW server
  is at http://www.debian.org/ , the FAQ is located at
  http://www.debian.org/FAQ/ (This copy might be out of date). The FAQ
  is available via FTP at ftp.debian.org:/debian/doc .

  Please send additions, corrections, suggestions and wishes to Sven
  Rudolph [EMAIL PROTECTED]  Please mention to which version of
  this document your comments refer.

  2.  Packages that have no current maintainer

  Packages listed in this section are still part of Debian (unless they
  have too many bugs), but the maintainer had reasons to not continue
  maintaining it. (Remember: Debian is mainly produced by volunteers who
  are not paid for maintaining Debian packages.)

  If you find that you need to discontinue maintaining a package, send
  me an e-mail.

  If you believe that the following list is incomplete, i.e., that there
  are other packages in the Debian distribution that currently have no
  active maintainer, send me an e-mail.

  3.  Packages that the maintainer wants to give away

  Packages listed in this section are still part of Debian, but the
  maintainer wants to find a new maintainer. It isn't as urgent to find
  a new maintainer as in the previous section.

  If you maintain Debian packages that you would like to hand off, send
  me an e-mail, then I will add this package to this section.

  If you would like to maintain one of the packages listed here, write
  to the current maintainer of this package.

Cool, I didn't even notice that it was on the wanted list when I
uploaded it. (I better put together -2, since -1 is missing a few
