Re: ITA: LSB package maintenance in Debian

Hi all again,

first, thanks to Steve and Jeff for the straight answers!

I have now pushed my git repository to collab-maint/lsb.git [0],
including the following branches:

 - master with all past Debian releases
 - master-ubuntu with all past Ubuntu releases (that I could find)
 - pristine-tar with all past Debian and Ubuntu tarball footprints

All past releases are properly tagged using either debian/${version} or
ubuntu/${version}.

I have also done some work on the package on a separate branch (which
includes "tiny-dh", "dh_python2", LSB4.1, some bug patches, dropping
Qt3, etc):

 - master-experimental-odyx

For now, I tested this package by creating a changelog with `git-dch
--multimaintmerge --ignore-branch --meta`and defining the version as
`4.1~Debian0` (which is a "properly" native version).

I would appreciate a review of my `master-experimental-odyx` branch,
including Acked-by/Signed-off-by additions and cherry-picking on another
branch (or master). As far as I can tell, most of the Ubuntu diff
(besides Multi-Arch as of now) are merged to my branch.

Jeff: while I have no call as "project" (as I just RFA'd lsb), I would
certainly welcome any help. As the git repository is on alioth's
collab-maint, as DD you already have commit access. Feel free to add
yourself as uploader during your review of my code changes. :->

I would like to upload lsb to experimental before the end of February,
eventually postponing bug resolutions. Uploading a good-working LSB 4.1
package before the end of March to unstable sounds realistic to me.

Cheers,

OdyX
