Hello who ever is interested in dLeyna in Debian, dLeyna 0.7 had a new upstream maintainer[1] and a new home[2]. With dLeyna 0.8 the project again moved[3] and the four repositories was merged into a single dleyna repo[4]. Likely the project should be updated to 0.8 using a single source package based on the new upstream mono-repo. I've prepared a new initial packaging at https://salsa.debian.org/debian/dleyna in case anyone wants to persue this, but I will *NOT* upload this myself. I'm not a user of dLeyna and I'm not interested in maintaining the packages. I could possibly send them into experimental to get some exposure and to easier to find for who ever is interented in picking them up. If you want to maintain the package but need a sponsor, feel free to ask me (but debian-mentors and possibly debian-gnome are also great places to reach out to)! Since a gupnp transition[9] is coming up I'm planning to very soon ask for dleyna to be removed from Debian (unstable, and thus testing)! In case noone steps up to take care of dLeyna that likely means it will not be part of the next/upcoming Debian Stable release. FWIW the initial packaging (at https://salsa.debian.org/debian/dleyna) has only been compile tested and file comparison with old binary packages and new binary packages are roughly the same. Running piuparts would likely be a good idea. Adding debian/*.symbols files for keeping track of library symbols as well (could possibly be picked up from the old repositories[5][6][7][8]). Please contact me immediately if you'd like to take care of this package and avoid me filing for removal!
