* Package name : popcorn-time Version : 0.2.7 * URL : http://popcorn.cdnjd.com/ * License : GPL Programming Lang: JS Description : Torrent movie streamer
I had a chance to use great piece of software and would gladly take maintain it but as upstream is dead already [1] thus the software doesn't work nor will have future updates I suggest that this bug should be closed. Thanks to submitter and keep searching more crazy stuff :). Cheers, zlatan
Popcorn Time [1] upstream is officially dead. There will be no further development on this piece of software. Its all explained in their story and thats why Debian will not have this package in its archive. Thanks to submitter. This bug is going to be closed. [1] http://getpopcornti.me/ Cheers, zlatan
A new team has taken the development of the software, and on May 13 the beta of version 3.0 was released. Site: http://get-popcorn.com/ Github Repo: https://github.com/popcorn-official/popcorn-app
reopen 741972 retitle 741972 ITP: popcorn-time -- Torrent movie streamer owner 741972 ! thanks I have the intention of packaging this. I think first step would be some research to see if popcorn-time would be accepted as debian package or if there are some big blockers.

Is there a public version control repository available? The bar of entry in Debian is normally the code license, and if you have a look at a blog post I wrote about license checking, see <URL: http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Creating__updating_and_checking_debian_copyright_semi_automatically.html >.

The task became a bit harder when the code no longer were available on Github.
A current maintained fork can be found at https://popcorntime.sh/ (source code at https://github.com/popcorn-official/popcorn-desktop)
There is a "fork" of the Popcorn Time client named Butter Desktop, <URL: https://github.com/butterproject/butter-desktop >, which might be a useful alternative to package in Debian.
