Subject: O: sextractor - Builds a catalogue of objects from an astronomical image.

Date: Thu, 07 Aug 2003 14:39:52 +0100

Package: wnpp
Version: unavailable; reported 2003-08-07
Severity: normal

As I no longer do astronomy, I do not have the time or interest to
maintain this package, I am looking to focus on my remaining packages.
It is in a reasonable state, the upstream is still very much active,
there is a new upstream version which I have not had time to package. It
is in a much better state than the current package, with good support
for autoconf and now licensed under GPL.

retitle 204464 ITA: sextractor -- Builds a catalogue of objects from an astronomical image.
thanks

I'll try to take over and package v2.3.2, but as there are many
changes I might need some time.

Cheers,
Flo

I've asked for comments on this package on the SExtractor mailing

Sooner or later I'll send a RFS to debian-mentors...

thanks

OK, I have packaged the newest upstream version, but neither upstream
nor the former maintainer have been responsive so far.

As I cannot thoroughly test my packaging due to lack of appropriate
input data I don't dare to ask for a sponsor. Everything _should_
work, but you never know... I reset this package's state to 'orphaned'
now. If you want to adopt it please follow the standard procedure and
feel free to take my packaging as a base for further updates.

My latest changelog entry:
| sextractor (2.3.2-1) unstable; urgency=low
| .
|   * New maintainer (Closes: #204464).
|   * New upstream release, now under GPLv2.
|   * debian/rules: complete rewrite
|   * Split into sextractor and architecture-independent sextractor-doc
|   * Removed patch from
|   * http://dls.bell-labs.com/Software/software.html as
|     upstream has included this functionality.
|   * Standards-Version 3.6.1


Cheers and sorry for the noise,
Flo - ex-wannabe maintainer of sextractor

Message #38 received at 204464-close@bugs.debian.org (full text, mbox, reply):

From: Debian Archive Maintenance <ftpmaster@ftp-master.debian.org>

To: 204464-close@bugs.debian.org

Subject: Bug#204464: fixed

Date: Sat, 03 Apr 2004 11:56:55 -0500

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:

sextractor |   2.2.2-10 | source, alpha, arm, hppa, hurd-i386, i386, ia64, m68k, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, sparc

Note that the package(s) have simply been removed from the tag
database and may (or may not) still be in the pool; this is not a bug.
The package(s) will be physically removed automatically when no suite
references them (and in the case of source, when no binary references
it).  Please also remember that the changes have been done on the
master archive (ftp-master.debian.org) and will not propagate to any
mirrors (ftp.debian.org included) until the next cron.daily run at the
earliest.

Packages are never removed from testing by hand.  Testing tracks
unstable and will automatically remove packages which were removed
from unstable when removing them from testing causes no dependency
problems.

Bugs which have been reported against this package are not automatically
removed from the Bug Tracking System.  Please check all open bugs and
close them or re-assign them to another package if the removed package
was superseded by another one.

Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed.  If you
have further comments please address them to 204464@bugs.debian.org.

This message was generated automatically; if you believe that there is
a problem with it please contact the archive administrators by mailing
ftpmaster@debian.org.
