Maybe the-me (currently the co maintainer) is willing to keep it untill September. He is currently hard to reach. But I don't think it is urgent at the moment anyway. Again thank you for your interested and time :) -- Philipp. (Rah of PH2) signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

I've just discovered this package with this orphaning message and I find it very interesting. I'm thus interested to maintain or co-maintain it, but due to personal business right now, I will not adopt it before september. So if someone else is interested in this package fell free to adopt it and I will join in later. Best regards, Thomas Preud'homme signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
Bug#679236: O: ckport -- portability analysis and security checking tool
Package: wnpp Severity: normal Hereby I orphan the package ckport. The package as made hardy useful by Ron Lee's personal vendetta against me. While not directly related most packages provided data for this package ("ckport database") will be removed or orphaned. As it is not fully useless I only orphan it not asking for RM. The package itself is in good shape. Upstream development is not affected by this. I hope the package will find a new home. I will gladly help a new maintainer as needed. The package description is: ckport is a tool to check already compiled binaries and libraries for porting and security problems. . It uses objdump to read the binaries and analyses calls and jumps to functions. . This package is architecture independent and can be used on non-host architecture binaries if an objdump tool for the target architecture is installed. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
