It would be nice if this were to go to Debian too, under pkg-gnome — ping me for sponsorship when it's good to go if you like. :-)

Iain: it has been uploaded apparently: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+queue?queue_state=0&queue_text=libpwquality

[Robert Ancell (robert-ancell)]

Iain, I think you were referring to sponsorship in Debian? I've spent more time trying to work out the Debian process, wrangling with svn and trying to get my Debian account to work than I spent packaging. I give up. Anyone is welcome and encouraged to put this package into Debian svn.

Yes, it has been uploaded - I'm just waiting for someone to take it out of the NEW queue.

We talked about this on IRC yesterday, and I'll look at putting in
SVN/experimental at some point soon.

If you want help with Debian then I'm always willing to assist/advise.

Cheers,
