## lierolibre

Sent ping for #790363 [10]. Contacted my mentor (Anibal) how to further procced.

## capnproto

Asked for a buildd rebuild [11]. However the package still FTBFS [12].
Weird, because my local builds are fine.
Contacted upstream [13] to keep them on the loop, also kindly asked for a patch.

## cde

Last week I asked my mentor (Anibal) about giving up. I pinged him this week.
I updated #668121 [14] with this same information.

## node-raptor

Same as cde package. Updated #719367 [15] about my giving up intentions.

## moarvm

I keep working towards a fix. Updated bug #789187 [16].

## bedtools

Patch sent, bug #791830 [17].

## ioapps

After being unable to find a fix by myself, I contacted by email
upstream developer Jiri Horky <jiri.horky at gmail.com> directly, asking for help.

## sdrangelove

I hit an ICE (internal compiler error) which is not reproducible.
It seems there is not much I can do. I updated #790855 [18] to let know
that I'm giving up.

[18] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=790855

## ncl

No news for ncl this week. The maintainer involved in the fix is busy
ATM and can't help me.

## kio

Opened bug #792499 [19] but maintainer quickly closed it (he is in his
way to address the issue).
