Hi Luca,
sorry about the Cc, but eye-balling -devel didn't reveal much activity
from you, so I'm not sure if you track the list. M-F-T is set to d-d.

Hi all,
I'm looking for someone who might be interested in co-maintaining or
perhaps adopting vegastrike. I haven't played the game in many months
and thus have been very sluggish in packaging the most recent
version(which is about to be superseded). Upstream is very active,

I've upload new ruby-defaults that make ruby 1.8.0 the debault version of ruby.

You can get the new ruby-defaults from

Dear ruby package maintainers!
As Marcelo pointed out on Bug#209052, ruby-dev has been obsoleted, so
packages that build-depend on ruby-dev can't be built now.
We have ruby1.6-dev (for ruby1.6) and ruby1.8-dev (for ruby1.8), so
please rebuild your packages to use ruby1.6-dev and/or ruby1.8-dev.

It is, but you shouldn't worry about it anyhow because nobody's crazy enough
