Package: libnewlib-arm-none-eabi
Version: 3.3.0-1.3
Followup-For: Bug #996432

Hi John,

Your ITS was posted quite a long time ago and the maintainer is utterly
MIA on this package. It's absolutely breaking stuff so that
gcc-arm-none-eabi cannot be installed in trixie/sid alongside this
package, which is required for the things you'd install that compiler
for.

Is this still something you're willing to work on? Is there some way
folks can assist/help test/help package/something, or are you literally
waiting on sponsors or … ?

Happy to help if I can.

In reply to	#1182653

I noticed the package was scheduled for removal, contacted the current
maintainer and asked if he still took care of it, and got a reply where
he stated that he was happy to pass on the maintenance to someone else.
I volunteered to orphan it, and is in the process of doing so.  I have
updated the salsa git repository with the latest upstream and planned
to upload to experimental to see how it goes.

Then I noticed this bug report, and guess it is better to check if
anyone is still interested in taking over the package before doing so.

I plan to upload tomorrow, please volunteer to take over and update the
salsa git repository with a new maintainer before this if you have a
better idea.
