Subject: RFA: apt-move -- Maintain Debian packages in a package pool

Date: Fri, 18 Sep 2009 13:25:26 -0700

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I no longer use this package, and I have not spent any time on it for
the past two years.  If there is anyone who would like to take over its
maintenance, feel free to claim it.

The package description is:
 apt-move is used to move a collection of Debian package files into a
 proper archive hierarchy as is used in the official Debian archive. It
 is intended as a tool to help manage the apt-get(8) file cache, but
 could be configured to work with any collection of Debian packages.
 .
 Running apt-move periodically will assist in managing the resulting
 partial mirror by optionally removing obsolete packages, and creating
 valid local Packages.gz files.  It can also build a partial or complete
 local mirror of a Debian binary distribution (including an
 ``installed-packages only'' mirror).

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi mate,
I'm interested in taking over the maintenance of apt-move. I was
wondering if the existing packaging was maintained in revision control
somewhere?

(I'll retitle the O: when I hear back from you, unless someone else
beats me to it).
Thanks,
kk

I was going through some old mail when I realized that I never got back
to you.  Sorry about that!

No, I did not maintain apt-move in a revision control system, so I guess
you will have to start one yourself!

Subject: apt-move: changing back from ITA to O

thanks

Hi,

This is an automatic email to change the status of apt-move back from ITA
(Intent to Adopt) to O (Orphaned), because this bug hasn't seen any activity
during the last 6 months.

If you are still interested in adopting apt-move, please send a mail to
<[email protected]> with:

 retitle 547348 ITA: apt-move -- Maintain Debian packages in a package
 owner 547348 !
 thanks

However, it is not recommended to keep ITA for a long time without acting on
the package, as it might cause other prospective maintainers to refrain from
adopting the package. It is also a good idea to document your progress on this
ITA from time to time, by mailing <[email protected]>.

Thank you for your interest in Debian,
