[ITP] dumpasn1

Hello to everyone,

I'm interested in becoming a package maintainer for the program dumpasn1.
(see https://packages.debian.org/sid/dumpasn1 and 
https://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~pgut001/)

It would be a new package for the cygwin distribution, but it is already
distributed on different systems, like Arch, Debian, Fedora, openSUSE,
Gentoo and many others

.hint and .cygport files are attached

As the name implies, it is a program for dumping data encoded using the 
ASN.1 encoding rules


Best regards

Federico Kircheis

Thanks. I added this to your authorized packages.

A few small comments on the cygport

I'm not sure that 'https://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~pgut001/dumpasn1.c' 
isn't the correct SRC_URI.

The debian packaging contains a manpage, which it might be useful to 
incorporate.

None of these are necessary, I think.

I've used the debian package ad it is a package that contains everything for creating the cygwin package (source+config), and provides a versioned source.

The URL you suggested is only the source file, and to be honest I do not know how to write the corresponding cygport file.
It also does not seem to be versioned.

Thus I would prefer to use the Debian source if it is not an issue.

I'll try removing the variables you mentioned.

Fair enough.
