Hello Pascal,

A few months ago you expressed interest in sponsoring an update of
the Debian GHDL package.

In the mean time I have made a minor update of my package. It is still
based on the same snapshot of GHDL upstream, but a few lintian
warnings are now resolved. The package builds without problems under
Jessie and produces a working GHDL binary.

My package is here:
  http://mentors.debian.net/package/ghdl

I intend to stick around and try to fix any issues that come up with
this package. I'm willing to act as the package maintainer, at least
until somebody more qualified shows up.

If still want to help with this package, please have a look. I'd like
to get the package in testing as soon as possible. From there I will
also try to get it into backports for wheezy.
Another minor update will be needed when testing transitions to
gnat-4.8, but I have already tested that and it should be easy.

Kind regards,
Joris.
