Maintainers of Depends (important) of CVS

Hi,

I’m the new maintainer of CVS in Debian. The package has been
totally replaced by a new one, which differs quite a lot from
the old package. For example, no repositories are managed au-
tomatically any more, PAM is gone, Kerberos is there (but not
supported by me, I only do :local: and :extssh:), the date is
again expanded in keywords as upstream does (not ISO 8601, as
that breaks digital signatures on checkouts), root isn’t per-
mitteded to commit, members of the new system group _cvsadmin
can run 'cvs admin', etc; quite a number of bugs are fixed or
closed or need reverification; the patches are documented (in
the texinfo docs), there is new functionality (like cvs suck,
written by user request, beta, needs to be submitted upstream
still as well) and cvs-switchrepo.

So please do test whether your package still works with sid’s
cvs (2:1.12.13+real-5) and fix it if it doesn’t.

The packages listed in the To: of this mail have an important
(according to apt-cache rdepends -i) dependency on CVS, which
means you please not ignore this request ;-)

bye,
