Hi, wmakerconf doesn't have upstream. The "official" developer [1] cannot maintain the application and one person [2] started with the maintaining of the application but now is missing in action. Then, the upstream is dead.
The current version of wmakerconf in debian is Orphaned. Ok, I changed the status to ITA (in adoption), but the problem is that this package don't have upstream. With the latest version of wmaker, the library Wutil includes the functions for wmakerconf, but a patch is needed, The patch is so easy, is only change the function WMWritePropListToFile, and modify the Makefile.am to include the WUtil lib (-lWutil) for the linker. sed -i -e 's/WMWritePropListToFile (\(.*\), YES))/WMWritePropListToFile(\1))/' src/*.c add -lWutil to Makefile.am The problem is... where make these changes? I can send a NMU (non maintainer upload), but this is incorrect if the upstream is dead, and probably is better to remove the package from the Debian distro. For these reasons, what should we do? Is somebody interested in this package? Is somebody using it? Is somebody interested in maintain the upstream? should we remove the package from debian? why the water wet? why the sky is blue?
