   Control: affects -1 + src:xtrs   
      
   I have orphaned the xtrs package.   
      
   I've created a repository in the Debian team on Salsa and I happily add   
   permissions for anyone who is interested to contribute.   
      
   As per upstream ChangeLog[1] there are no new releases and I understood   
   that every Git commit can be considered a release.  This is reflected in   
   the watch file I've updated accordingly.  Since I have no sensible option   
   to test the package I did not upgraded to the latest upstream code.  If   
   someone wants to take over I'd recommend reviewing the extensive patch   
   set in the Debian package whether these might be upstreamed and possibly   
   included into the source there.   
      
      
   The package description is:   
    xtrs is an X-based emulator for the Tandy/Radio Shack line of Zilog Z80-based   
    microcomputers popular in the late 1970s and early 1980s.  It features   
    cassette, floppy, and hard drive emulation, timer interrupt emulation, file   
    import and export from the host operating system, support for most of the   
    undocumented Z80 instructions, and a built-in debugger.  Real floppy drives   
    can be used, and, if an OSS-compatible sound driver is available,   
    application-based sound can be played and real cassettes read and written   
    directly through the sound card or via WAVE files.  Several hi-res graphics   
    cards are emulated and, in Model 4/4P mode, mice are supported.  There is   
    also real-time clock, sound card, serial port, joystick, and CPU clock   
    speedup emulation.   
    .   
    xtrs requires ROM images from the original machines.  The ROMs are   
    copyrighted by Radio Shack and are not freely licensed.  (Exception: in Model   
    4P mode, a freely-licensed boot ROM included with this package can be used to   
    boot a Model 4 operating system from a diskette image.)   
    .   
    xtrs is maintained upstream at GitHub: see   
    .   
      
      
   Thank you, Branden, for maintaining this package over the years.   
   I have moved it to Salsa, done some modernization work, and am orphaning   
   it so it can continue under Debian's care.   
   Your contributions are appreciated.   
      
   Kind regards   
      Andreas.
