polyml 5.5.2-4

[Gianfranco Costamagna]

Sure, thanks for the kind words for the former maintainers :)

Btw s390x and x32 just failed to build, you might want to poke upstream about a porting, and ping me about testing patches on porter boxes :)

If you want ti maintain some other packages you might even consider applying for Debian Contributor or Debian Maintainer, you are doing a good job here, you might even have direct upload privileges one day for this package :)

Cheers,

G.

 Oh right, I wasn’t
 aware such a thing was the done thing; I was just using
 xindy (just so happened to see that someone took over
 maintenance of it on debian-devel) as a reference. Of course
 it goes without saying that I’m grateful for all the work
 Lionel and Achim have done on it; I hope nobody thinks
 otherwise. Without them there would be no Poly/ML package on
 Debian and its derivatives.
 
 Thanks for continuing to sponsor me!
 
 Regards,
 James
