gentoo file manager for gtk2 (currently 0.15.5) should be in repos

*** This is an automated message ***

This bug is tagged needs-packaging which identifies it as a request for a new package in Ubuntu. As a part of the managing needs-packaging bug reports specification, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/Specs/NeedsPackagingBugs, all needs-packaging bug reports have Wishlist importance. Subsequently, I'm setting this bug's status to Wishlist.

I'm updated this package, but it will need to be reviewed by ubuntu-universe-sponsors before it is uploaded. I'm attaching the diff.gz and adding ubuntu-universe-sponsors to the subscribers list. Thanks for the bug report.

A new revision of the above patch that references this LP bug in the appropriate format (thanks Brian) is attached.

Few changes I made:
- You didn't change the maintainer field for Ubuntu (can be done via the update-maintainer script in ubuntu-dev-tools)
- Debian version should be 0 since this is only in Ubuntu
- Standards-version should not be changed for packages also in Debian

The rest was done well. Uploaded, thanks!

This bug was fixed in the package gentoo - 0.15.5-0ubuntu1

---------------
gentoo (0.15.5-0ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low

  * New upstream version (LP: #395529)
    - Removed use of the dreaded GtkCList widgets on the DirPane config
      pages. Currently this also removed support for drag-and-drop in
      the right (selected) list; I might fix that later on. For now,
      just use the pretty arrow buttons below the list.
    - Bug-fix: the DpFocusISrch command, which was suffering from some
      bad porting (to GTK+ 2.0) issues [bug #2786313].
    - Bug-fix: the overwrite confirm dialog, which did not convert its
      filenames to UTF-8 for display, and thus showed gibberish for any
      names with non-ASCII characters in them.
    - Bug-fix: the textviewer also didn't convert filenames to UTF-8
      before display, causing warnings from Pango (and gibberish).
    - Fixed a bug that made the File Type configuration become totally
      confused if you used arrow keys to step around in the list a few
      times and then tried editing [bug #2728738].
    - Removed yet another GtkCList, this time in the Styles config page's
      Action part. The entire Action editing was totally remodelled and
      modernized. It now uses in-place editing right in the list view,
      and uses text styling (overridden properties are bold) for clarity.
    - Made the configure script require glib 2.14 or greater, for GRegex.
    - Fixed a bug [#2716890] that caused gentoo to crash with a "memory
      freed twice" error by just changing a pane's path.
    - Fixed a bug that caused sizes shown in e.g. the status bar to be
      formatted with the wrong unit. KB and MB both showed up as GB.
    - Changed a couple of small helper buttons (the magnifying glass
      meaning "pick from dialog" and the "Clr" button in the buttons
      config) to use standard GTK+ 2.0 stock images instead. The glass is
      now a pair of binoculars, the "Clr" is a ... uh ... paintbrush?
