Handling of merge requests on salsa.d.o for debian-xen.

[Alexandre GRIVEAUX]

Hello,

Some time ago I created some merge request on salsa for debian-xen:

https://salsa.debian.org/xen-team/debian-xen/-/merge_requests?scope=all&state=opened

Created 8 months ago, it's seem it's doesn't get merged, I would like to know
how merge request are handled on salsa.d.o for debian-xen ?

Thanks.

Ps: I'm not registered on this mailings lists.

These looks like you want to send them upstream instead.

This is probably the best advice specifically for the 6 submissions you sent.

As a more generic reply, in this package only one MR has ever been
merged, and in general, there has been no activity in path 8 months,
so what you are experiencing is kind of normal. A helpful resource to
view the overall package status is https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/xen
which shows that latest version in Debian is still Xen 4.17 from 2022
despite .18 in 2023 and .19 in 2024 becoming available from upstream.

You can try to email pkg-xen-devel@ (as you did) and CC the most
active maintainer Hans (as I now did) to get some attention. You could
also consider offering help in package maintenance if you have Debian
package maintenance skills.

Thanks for your contributions!
