[Pkg-fonts-devel] Bug#1093191: gwaterfall: Please switch from cdbs to dh (and possibly maintain package in Fonts team)

Hi,

I've found gwaterfall in the set of candidates for the Bug of the Day
that are using cdbs.  Since cdbs is orphaned[1] its IMHO a good reason
to migrate to dh.  I did so in a feshly created repository inside the
Debian Fonts Task Force team[2].  I have checked that the resulting
packages are identical to the cdbs build using debdiff.

Given the fact that the package was two times in a row NMUed it would
simplify maintenance if it were maintained in a team on Salsa. Please
let me know if uploading the current status of the repository[2] as a
team upload is fine for you.  I will wait 21 days for your permission
(as per Salvage procedure rules) and if I will not hear from you I will
upload to delayed = 10.

Kind regards
    Andreas.
