Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

Now that the library transition is over, and all major bugs should be
fixed, I've been able to finally orphan the directfb suite of packages.

It might make sense for whoever takes over, to adopt the whole suite
(directfb, dfb++ and fusionsound), they have been maintained in the
pkg-directfb alioth project, which I can hand over to the new
maintainer(s).

All patches have been sent and merged upstream, except for one, which
I'm taking care of. There's intructions in that patch header on how to
proceed for next upstream release.


The package description is:
DirectFB is a graphics library which was designed with embedded systems
in mind. It offers maximum hardware accelerated performance at a minimum
of resource usage and overhead.

Sure, I've transferred the alioth project now (you sort out the
project perms).

Something I forgot to say before about latest upstream release, I
didn't package it because it's currently considered as a development
branch by upstream.

regards,
guillem
