    Package: btop

    Hi!

    I am planning to salvage btop following process described in https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.html#when-a-package-is-eligible-for-package-salvaging

    I have been offering my help to Marius for nearly two years now, and
    in January Marius replied that he is unlikely to have time for the
    package and indicated he would be OK to move https://salsa.debian.org/mariogrip/btop to
    https://salsa.debian.org/debian/btop so it is easier for any Debian
    Developer to maintain it.

    This didn't happen yet though. I will continue to wait a bit more in
    case Marius wants to chime in.

    If there is no response, I will proceed with the salvaging process,
    take over maintenance, and update package to 1.4.0 (#1084966) and to
    fix all the bugs I can. A TODO list to myself of packaging
    improvements to make is at
    https://github.com/aristocratos/btop/pull/715.

    Hi,

    I'm so sorry I have completely missed your other mails, I'm really sorry.

    Yes, to share the workload would be awesome :) I'll move it over to the debian project on gitlab

    I'm lucky to be able to work much more on debian this year, last year I had too much on my plate.

    Best,
    Marius GripsgÄrd
