  Description     : a colorful alternative to "adb logcat"

This package is designed to be used in conjunction with the Android
"adb" utility to view logs on an Android device or emulator.

logcat-color is highly configurable and is compatible with upstream
logcat's command-line flags.

Why does it not mention this in the package name? And is there a reason
not to publish this in the adb package itself if it is that useful?

Bastian

It is a separate project from the upstream Android project; it
"Enhances: android-tools-adb" and will even work without ADB installed
to colourise log files.

Compare "tig".

Cheers,

Luke

Hi,

A long time ago, you expressed interest in packaging logcat-color. Unfortunately,
it seems that it did not happen. In Debian, we try not to keep ITP bugs open
for a too long time, as it might cause other prospective maintainers to
refrain from packaging the software.

This is an automatic email to change the status of logcat-color from ITP
(Intent to Package) to RFP (Request for Package), because this bug hasn't seen
any activity during the last 12 months.

If you are still interested in packaging logcat-color, please send a mail to
<control@bugs.debian.org> with:

It is also a good idea to document your progress on this ITP from time to
time, by mailing <719556@bugs.debian.org>.  If you need guidance on how to
package this software, please reply to this email, and/or contact the
debian-mentors@lists.debian.org mailing list.

Thank you for your interest in Debian,
