Please backport wsl 0.2.1-1 (universe) from raring

[Kent Baxley]

Please backport wsl 0.2.1-1 (universe) from raring to quantal.

Reason for the backport:
========================
WSL (a.k.a. "whistle") contains various scripts that serve as a client interface to WSMAN or “Web Services for Management“ protocol based on DMTF standard specification. WSMAN provides standards based messaging for systems management CIM-style objects.

We already ship openwsman in universe, and this is a lightweight nad handy tool for interfacing with with it.

Testing:
========
Mark off items in the checklist [X] as you test them, but please leave the checklist so that backporters can quickly evaluate the state of testing.

You can test-build the backport in your PPA with backportpackage:
$ backportpackage -u ppa:<lp username>/<ppa name> -s raring -d quantal wsl

* quantal:
[X] Package builds without modification
[X] wsl installs cleanly and runs

* precise:
[X] Package builds without modification
[X] wsl installs cleanly and runs

No reverse dependencies

wsl installed cleanly from my backports repo onto a Dell PowerEdge R620 running 12.10.

I could verify that the following commands worked:

wsl enum CIM_ComputerSystem

wsl enum DCIM_ComputerSystem

wsl enum CIM_ComputerSystem -filter "select * from CIM_ComputerSystem where Name='systemmc'"

wsl get DCIM_SPComputerSystem CreationClassName=DCIM_SPComputerSystem Name=systemmc

wslid check
