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 fwts 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 fwts, please send a mail to <control@bugs.debian.org> with: retitle 748783 ITP: fwts -- firmware test suite PC firmware. It is intended to identify BIOS and ACPI errors and if appropriate it will try to explain the errors and give advice to help workaround or fix firmware bugs. It is primarily intended to be a Linux-centric firmware troubleshooting tool. owner 748783 ! thanks It is also a good idea to document your progress on this ITP from time to time, by mailing <748783@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,
just an fyi: packages have been put in for NEW queue processing
I thought I would have time to package this but clearly I do not. Moving this back to RFP in case someone is interested.
Hi, I would like to package and maintain fwts for Debian.
