Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: important

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my testing-proposed-updates NMU of "syslinux".
This TPU upload was pre-approved by the release team (bug #695343).

This version fixes bug #687848 (extlinux-update: fails to correctly update
changed syslinux debian themes). Without this fix, the themes never get
updated (because they are put into a subfolder of the intended location), which
means that the fix for #681426 (syslinux-themes-debian-wheezy:
extlinux/theme.cfg refers to debian-squeeze files), which leaves the system
unbootable, doesn't work.

 * Package name    : syslinux
   Version         : 2:4.05+dfsg-6+deb7u1
 * License         : GPL2
   Section         : utils

It builds those binary packages:

extlinux   - collection of boot loaders (ext2/3/4 and btrfs bootloader)
syslinux   - collection of boot loaders
syslinux-common - collection of boot loaders (common files)
syslinux-udeb - collection of boot loaders (udeb)

To access further information about this package, please visit the following 
URL:

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

dget -x 
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/syslinux/syslinux_4.05+dfsg-6+deb7u1.dsc
