[webmin-l] .debs for Etch/Dapper

[Mark P. <pa...@in...>]

  After noticing that webmin has disappeared from both Debian testing 
(ie. Etch) and Ubuntu (Dapper Drake) I'm guessing that webmin has missed 
the freeze and won't make the next release of Ubuntu (scheduled for 
June) and is in serious danger of falling out of the next Debian release 
also.  If this is what is happening it's a real shame, but I understand 
maintaining webmin packages would be a huge job.

  Does anyone know of any work being done towards webmin in Debian?

Well this is not an issue of Webmin really as Webmin can be installed =
from
tar.gz and works. There simply is no maintainer anymore at Debian to pack
Webmin/Usermin etcpp into debs.

The last thing I know was a project on alioth in order to have a =
packaging
team for Webmin but I do not know its status. Maybe you should ask
debian-devel or debian-mentors to get more information.


bis dahin / kind regards

Yes, work is being done .. there is a group of maintainers who are working
on updating the Debian package to use the latest (or near to it) Webmin release.
