Comment 1 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2019-03-17 15:56:32 UTC
The newest upstream version at http://hardy.uhasselt.be/Toga/polyglot-release/ is still 1.4.70b which is what we currently have.

Not sure what the status of http://hgm.nubati.net/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=polyglot.git;a=summary is. Is that merely a fork, or has maintainership been transferred? Also note that the master branch there is still at version 1.4.70b. Version 2.0.4 is in a branch forked from 1.4.67b, and I don't see any releases.
Comment 2 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2025-03-24 12:17:58 UTC
@sping: I see your name in the changelog of the Debian package. Do you know what the status of this package is, and where the sources can be found?

Apparently the Git repository at http://hgm.nubati.net/ no longer exists.

It's not the only Git repository not accessible there: the whole GitWeb seems
to be broken and also TLS.  I guess we should reach out to H.G. Muller about
that asking about plans for repair.

PS: There is a slightly more recent fork of polyglot at
https://github.com/ulthiel/polyglot but I'm not sure if it should be considered
the new upstream or not.
Comment 4 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2025-03-26 19:51:19 UTC
The upstream git repository can still be accessed at:
http://hgm.nubati.net/git/polyglot.git
(Version 2.0.4 is in branch "learn".)

Released version is at:
http://hgm.nubati.net/releases/

I see, so then "just" the GitWeb linked as
http://hgm.nubati.net/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi is down.

Thanks for taking care!
