Hi,

tracker reports that a new upstream version is available: 0.2.

I stumbled upon this package since its not yet maintained on Salsa.  I
noticed that this is your only package not maintained on Salsa so I
assume you might be possibly happy about a helping hand in the migration
step.  I'd happily create a repository in Debian team using
   gbp import-dscs
if you agree.

Kind regards
    ANdreas.

Thanks for the offer, but I have some commit history in my local git
repo from alioth that I'd like to push.

0.2 isn't quite packageable as-is before because upstream had released
it with a tarball of precompiled glib resources encoded as a giant
binary blob in `src/resources.c` that wasn't DFSG or GPL-compliant. I've
checked out what resources were in the file and they appear to be just
icons.

I've reached out to upstream and they've agreed to make another release
with the icons separately, but it hasn't happened yet.

Great.  I noticed you just created

https://salsa.debian.org/debian/abx

Thanks a lot.  I have set Vcs fields and was running lintian-brush
(= manually calling Debian Janitor).  Hope this helps. ;-)

OK, thank you for working on this.

I'd be happy if you could upload the current status of the repository
in the near future to announce the existing Git repository.

Kind regards and thank you for all your work in Debian
    Andreas.
