#13818 — [RFS] RadioTray

Dear Python Team,

I am looking for a sponsor for RadioTray.

RadioTray was removed from official Debian repository, because it
required python 2.

During this time I was working on porting it to python 3. But I did not
made it in time and also it seems the old developer abandoned the
program. At least the original repository is no longer available.

So I put the repository back on github under:
https://github.com/Borim7/radio-tray

RadioTray is running now with python3 and works reliable.
Currently it is available via Ubuntu PPA:
https://launchpad.net/~borim/+archive/ubuntu/radiotray

but it would be great, if RadioTray will get back into the official
Debian repository.
I have already written a mail to the old Debian maintainer Elías
Alejandro Año Mendoza, but did not get an answer.

Is here someone, who is willing to sponsor RadioTray?

Regards,
Matthias

Please note the extra steps required when reintroducing packages:

If you don't get a response here, filing an RFS can sometimes work:

Hallo,

thanks for the hints. I have checked through all bugs, which are
referenced in the removal log for radiotray. The reason of removal and
most other bugs are fixed during porting radiotray to python 3, or are
not longer reproducible.

The details are documented at: https://github.com/Borim7/radio-tray/issues/7

In the instructions from "Reintroducing packages" one point is to update
or reopen old bugs.
Should this also be done, although the radiotray package is still removed?

I hesitate to do it, because it is a little bit weird to open bug
reports for something, that is no longer part of Debian.

Regards Matthias

Wait until after the package is accepted or at least in NEW.
