Yup, I'm not sure how serious the threat may be, but restricting it a
bit would fine for me.

Note though that the Fedora package does not do that[1] and since it is
done by Colin I'm not sure if we want to diverge from it.

Asking Colin about the group restriction may be a good a idea.

I took Thomas patch with the debian/ files and cherry-picked it on top
of the upstream git history for version 2012.1, and then I updated it to
2013.1.

I usually prefer having the upstream history available when upstream
uses git, it makes tracking upstream changes easier.

Of course by doing so I diverged from the repo on collab-maint, I hope
this won't be an issue, either by force-pushing the new commits to
collab-maint, or disregarding my repo and cherry-picking my changes on
top of Thomas' repo.

I'm not a DD nor a DM yet, so I don't have special rights. As long as
some kind soul will get linux-user-chroot uploaded to Debian, whatever
you do is fine for me. :)

OOC, what issues you found in my package? Would you mind commenting on
Github or making your changes available somewhere?

Thanks!
Emanuele.

Please go ahead and you can also takeover the maintainership.

Thanks!

 I used the one from Emanuele, as he stated it's an updated one. Will
check yours. Either incorporating changes from him or do the way it
suits best.
I know that I've commit rights to every collab-maint repositories, but
I ask for permission beforehand. As I see, it's not a problem for you
that I'll do the necessary changes.

 Here I am. Do you allow me to be part of your package (set you as the
maintainer and me as an uploader or vica-versa)?

Cheers,
Laszlo/GCS

That's a bug. The intenion was to have the package under the
collab-maint umbrella. The git repository for packaging is already there
and you can just use it (every DD has write access to the collab-maint
repositories).
I already had a sponsor but after a couple of weeks he still had no time
for review and then I had no time to push the sponsoring search forward.

Hi,

I wonder who is who in this packaging. Thomas didn't touch packaging
for eight months now. He put Utopia Maintenance Team to maintainer. No
idea how they are related.
Emanuele updated packaging, which has some problems. I've corrected
everything. I'm a Debian Developer, can maintain it by myself. What
others would like to do?

Also please note that the current state can be interpreted as some
kind of security threat. Its binary installed as setuid and executable
for everyone. A more safe solution would be a separate group and only
its members would be allowed to execute linux-user-chroot .

Regards,
Laszlo/GCS
