Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

The current maintainer of libpalm-perl, Bradley Marshall <brad@humbug.org.au>,
has orphaned this package.

If you want to be the new maintainer, please take it -- see
http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/index.html#howto-o for detailed
instructions how to adopt a package properly.

Bradley wants the taker of libpalm-perl to also consider taking
coldsync, please have a look that, too.

Do you still intend to adopt libpalm-perl and coldsync?  (This is just
a ping, I'm not interested in adopting them myself.)

Thanks,

I don't have time to work on these packages anymore, so I prefer to orphan them.

owner 352616 !
kthxbye

This package has a reasonable popcon and a few rdepends, so it is
probably worth adopting as part of pkg-perl. I've got a Palm V lying
around somewhere at home. :)

There is a new upstream version (and new upstream) available at:
http://search.cpan.org/dist/p5-Palm/ - I haven't checked that it's
completely backwards-compatible, but I assume so.

The new versioning style may require adding an epoch... or should the
package really be called 'libp5-palm-perl'?

Thanks for your initiative in this, Tim.

The Changes file is not very verbose unfortunately. "catches up for 
all the changes since Nov 2002 :/"

libpalm-perl is better, as the main module is Palm (and others are all 
Palm::Foo). About the versions, I'd use upstream version mangling in 
debian/watch.

The currently present version is 1.3.0, and the new upstream release 
is 1.009. So I'd add

    opts="uversionmangle=s/\.0+/./"

to the beginning of the watch line. This way the 1.009 will become 
1.9.

Or, use an epoch. I find epochs ugly, but version mangling is not that 
nice either.
