So I guess noone knows. Can someone assist me in creating a new upstream? I
have created a new git repository with the original tarball and the 2 existing
patches, which can be found here: https://github.com/DerDakon/genqmail
Please pick this up and move it somewhere into Gentoo git infrastructure. I
can transfer ownership to the Github Gentoo organization if you would like.
Afterwards I just need someone to push the button and create a new snapshot
from that (preferably together with a git tag).
If that is done I can switch over the netqmail ebuild to use the new tarball
so we can start to phase out the old one.
Eike
P.S.: you can find me on Freenode as Dakon if that makes things go faster
