Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: important
Hi mentors
Looking for a sponsor for my package "distcc":
http://mentors.debian.net/package/distcc
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/d/distcc/distcc_3.1-5.dsc
It has not been actively maintained for some time and the maintainer
has filed an ITO[1]. I have previously been sponsored with an NMU on
the package and am now looking to adopt it.
The current package is starting to age and contains many bugs. I have
updated to debhelper compat level 9 "dh $@" style, and cleaned most
lintian issues.
Upstream has a new release candidate which I intend to upload to
experimental after this. I have cherry-picked some fixes for IPv6
support from that version.
There are also some patches and other issues remaining on the BTS, the
current changes are quite numerous so thought it best to push the work
done thus far.
The changelog entry is large as I have tried to include all changes no
matter how small, it may be more useful to drop entries such as "use
set -e". Here it is:
distcc (3.1-5) unstable; urgency=low
* new maintainer (Closes: #664497)
* update Standards-Version to 3.9.3:
- debian/distcc.init.d: start action exits successfully if daemon
is already running [9.3.2]; postinst will succeed on upgrades in
this case also (Closes: #620773, LP: #822887)
* switch to dpkg-source 3.0 (quilt) format
* remove Build-Depends: dpatch
* add Build-Depends: autotools-dev
* debian/rules:
- use debhelper compat level 9
- reduce to "dh $@" style
- fixes FTBFS caused by previous build-arch target (Closes: #666383)
- enabled bindnow hardening (no PIE yet, it causes build failure)
* debian/control:
- added Homepage field
- distcc: description starts lowercase
* debian/distcc.config:
- renamed from debian/config
- use "set -e"
- include missing #DEBHELPER# token
* debian/distcc.init.d:
- added stop levels 0, 6
- unset TMPDIR before starting the daemon to avoid problems with
root's value for this being unwritable by the distccd user; to
provide distccd with a sensible TMPDIR put it in /etc/default/distcc
(Closes: #514556)
* debian/distcc.postinst:
- use "set -e" instead of "#!/bin/sh -e"
- drop extra calls to "sed ... /etc/default/distcc" for every field
that only removed whitespace which would be removed anyway when
updating the fields
- always create distccd user if it does not exist (Closes: #548053)
* debian/distccmon-gnome.menu:
- changed title to "distcc monitor"
- dropped incorrect hint tag
* debian/patches:
- 06_set-pythonpath-securely.patch: contains fix for #605168 which
was previously applied directly to the source
- 07_preferred-user.patch: starting the daemon as root causes it to
change user, which should be to "distccd" in Debian
- 08_gnome-data-public-dirs.patch: install desktop and icon files for
distccmon-gnome /usr/share/applications and /usr/share/pixmaps
respectively (LP: #512288)
- 09_rename-pump.patch: rename the "pump" command to "distcc-pump" in
all references such as help text, man pages, etc. (Closes: #594083)
- 10_consecutive-preprocessor-options.patch: correctly count
preprocessor options (Closes: #626926)
- 11_lsdistcc-man.patch: add man page for lsdistcc utility
* debian/watch:
- added remote watch file
* source/config.{guess,sub}:
- update with autotools-dev during build instead of directly patching
the source tree
* use dpkg triggers to dynamically generate/update compiler links
based on the ccache packaging. Thanks to Daniel Schaal
(Closes: #651670)
* cherry-pick upstream fixes for IPv6 support (Closes: #452835):
- r650_ipv6-zeroconf.patch: IPv6 patch for Zeroconf and IPv6 literals
in hosts file (Closes: #481951, LP: #593047)
- r673_zeroconf-nodups.patch: remove duplicate hosts from the Zeroconf
list (LP: #809534)
- r678_distcc-v6-acl-2.patch: IPv6 support for access control
* cherry-pick other upstream fixes:
- r732_distccmon-gnome.patch: avoid client list growing indefinitely
(LP: #521165)
Regards
