I can sponsor this package. However this package looks old and needs updating before the upload. 1. please have a look and fix the following lintian warnings: ------------------------------------------------------------- │ W: mitlm changes: orig-tarball-missing-upstream-signature mitlm_0.4.2.orig.tar.xz │ W: mitlm source: vcs-deprecated-in-debian-infrastructure vcs-git https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/mitlm.git │ W: mitlm source: vcs-deprecated-in-debian-infrastructure vcs-browser https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/mitlm.git │ W: libmitlm1: debian-changelog-has-wrong-day-of-week 2018-09-05 is a Wednesday │ W: mitlm: debian-changelog-has-wrong-day-of-week 2018-09-05 is a Wednesday │ W: libmitlm-dev: debian-changelog-has-wrong-day-of-week 2018-09-05 is a Wednesday For more detailed hints about how to fix them, just run │ │ lintian -EviI │ after building this package. Or pass an existing *.changes file to lintian. Particylarly, the Vcs-* fields should point to Salsa https://salsa.debian.org/giuliopaci-guest/mitlm And the latest standards version is 4.2.1 . 2. why is the SOVERSION bump from 0 to 1? ------------------------------------------ Has upstream bumped ABI/API? Besides, I'd suggest add symbols control file for this package such that ABI changes can be tracked more easily. One will obtain a symbols list from buildlog after creating an empty .symbols file and rebuild. --- The rest LGTM.
