Sympa and phpGroupware (soon ?) in Debian testing

Cool. We make progress on the PicoForge (1.1) dependencies in Debian :

  • Sympa was momentarily out of testing, since it had a “grave” bug when trying to install it over PostGreSQL. I found a workaround, I think, so removed the grave status of that bug, and now Sympa is back in testing. We’re still working out a proper fix… but in between I think I found something nasty around debconf and locales… more details later maybe.
  • phpGroupware, may soon come back to Debian. Due to its maintainer MIA, it was removed from Debian (testing and unstable), so we (Christian and myself) motivated to take over the maintenance of the package, and finally filed an ITP. Let’s see if we find sponsors, and how we manage to maintain it (we habe setup a project in PicoForge to do so)… I hope it won’t be too much work, and that the upcoming 0.9.18 will help lower the maintenance efforts.

Now all this is improving, we may concentrate on PicoForge again ? 😉
