Please,
Adopt it, as anyone should know, if a package is written in C and a bug can
be reproduced by someone other then the reporter, I'm always willing to
help out and fix it.
I wonder if we need to have a wiki entry for package maintainers which
says: "I have a bug I cannot fix even though I'm an excellent packager as
I'm unfortunately not a programming guru"
With as answers:
1) Ask for help on fedora-devel-list
2) If the app is written in C ask Hans.
And I'm _not_ joking, various packagers already know to find me, and I
don't mind if others find out about this too. Ofcourse there will be a
point when we need a Hans version 2 / a backup Hans, volunteers?
OK, if noboby ask for maintaining this package during the next 72h, I'll take
it.
Regards,
Alain
