Hi,

$ apt showsrc cl-ftp | grep ^Vc
Vcs-Browser: https://github.com/pinterface/cl-ftp
Vcs-Git: https://github.com/pinterface/cl-ftp.git

This repository has only upstream code but no debian/ dir.

I'd happily help in migrating the packaging to Debian team on Salsa.

Kind regards
    Andreas.

I'm thinking about removing it, not sure anyone uses it anymore.

I'm actually the original author (2002) but it was taken over about 10
years ago by pinterface when I was busy with RL.

Hi Matthew,

Thank you for your prompt response.

That's perfectly fine for me - but its upon you as the Maintainer to do
so.

If you think it might have some value to have the packaging in some
Git repository on Salsa I'd volunteer to migrate it to Debian team
before removing.  If not feel free to reassign this bug by

    Control: retitle -1 RM: cl-ftp -- RoM; <your reason for removal>
    Control: reassign -1 ftp.debian.org
    Control: affects -1 + src:cl-ftp

Kind regards
   Andreas.

Ok, I found that there may be a small number of users. If you are
willing to help me bring it into Salsa then I'll gladly accept your
assistance. Thanks!

Hi Matthew,

I realised that Ondřej Nový (in CC) even created a repository on Salsa
featuring possibly the latest Git commit which was declared as version
1.6.1.  I included the NMU which was done meanwhile and did some further
small changes in this repository where I would like you to have a look:

https://salsa.debian.org/debian/cl-ftp

I think Ondřej was right to bump the version but there is no upstream
tag for this.  So I think the first step would be that you tag the
latest upstream version on Github.  The watch file which I fixed in
Salsa assumes that those tags are starting with the string "VERSION_".

Once this tagging is done we can import this latest version into the
Debian packaging repository.  Now its up to you to decide:

  * Do you want to do the actual upload yourself (as DD you inherited
    push permissions)?
  * Do you want me to NMU the package?
  * If the answer to the latter question is yes, do you want to do
    uploads in future or would you prefer to rather orphan the package
    and I should do a QA upload.

Kind regards and thank you for the cooperation
    Andreas.

I think I will move the upstream repo back to my copy on github
(github.com/mrd/cl-ftp) and then I'll tag a new version. I'll upload
that once it is done. Sorry, just super busy this week.

Hi Matthew,

just take your time and let me know if I could be of any help.

Kind regards
    Andreas.
