my EPEL-6 packages up for takers

[Patrice Dumas]

Hello,

I won't, at least for now, maintain the packages I maintain in EPEL-5 in
EPEL-6. I have added a nobranch file in all of them. If you want to take up
the package, you can. It is still unclear to me how to practically ensure
that you become the EPEL-6 branch owner, instead of me, though. Hopefully
this will be sorted out.

If you want to maintain the EL-5 (or even EL-4) branch too, don't 
hesitate, the less package I maintain the better I am.

I think that wdm should not be maintained in EL-6 anyway, since upstream
is dead and there is no ConsoleKit integration.

For the dap-* packages it maybe worth waiting for a stabilisation of 
the ABI, and maybe integration with bes and packaging of olfs to have a 
working hyrax server before branching. My guess is that there are no 
users of these packages anyway. Also maybe the opendap implementantion 
in netcdf itself could be used instead of libdap/libnc-dap.

The list is:
acpitool
asa
bibexport
BibTool
bitmap
boolstuff
cernlib
cernlib-g77
cppunit
dap-freeform_handler
dap-hdf4_handler
dap-netcdf_handler
dap-server
docbook2X
elektra
esmtp
flasm
g2clib
gnochm
gpicview
grads
halevt
html2ps
kchmviewer
libdap
libdockapp
libesmtp
libnc-dap
libsx
ooo2txt
pam_ssh
perl-Algorithm-CurveFit
perl-Cache
perl-Feed-Find
perl-File-BaseDir
perl-File-DesktopEntry
perl-File-MimeInfo
perl-File-NFSLock
perl-Heap
perl-HTML-FormatText-WithLinks
perl-LWP-Authen-Wsse
perl-Math-MatrixReal
perl-Math-Symbolic
perl-Module-Signature
perl-Parse-Yapp
perl-Statistics-Descriptive
perl-Test-Distribution
perl-Text-CHM
perl-Text-Unidecode
pmount
ps2eps
python-chm
tetex-elsevier
tetex-tex4ht
uread
wdm

I'll try to take as many as I can.  It happens that I will have lots of
free time over the next month or so.  Most of the hard part has already
been done, so it should not be too hard except where is noted below.

I'm already testing EPEL builds on RHEL6 internally.

I'll sync with you off list tomorrow or Monday if that is OK with you
Patrice.

Let's face it, there's no Hollow Earth, no robots, and
no 'mute rays.' And even if there were, waxed paper is
no defense.  I tried it.  Only tinfoil works.

Hi Patrice,

One of my packages has a dependency on docbook2X, so I will take that one.

Thanks,

I think that you have to make a regular cvs request now, it doesn't
seems to be in packagedb.
