No need for sponsoring for two reasons: a) I got a little bit more spare time (and sorry for being irresponsive) so there is enough for m-a again, and b) Andreas Beckmann just volunteered as co-maintainer which is heavilly appreciated. > To access further information about this package, please visit the > following URL: > > http://mentors.debian.net/package/module-assistant > > > Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: > > dget -x > http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/m/module-assistant/module-assistant_0.11.4+nmu1.dsc > > > I have a git repo based on the one on collab-maint temporary pushed to > https://github.com/DonKult/module-assistant.git if you prefer that. > (collab-maint misses at least the tag for 0.11.4 though) Right, thanks for mentioning, I forgot to push the tags and it's solved now. I also merged your branch, and added you and Andreas to the Uploader list. @Andreas: would you like to pull the trigger? ;-) There are make targets for pristine-tar added by the previous comaintainer which kinda work but please don't ask me for a comment on them since I am not the greatest git/pristine-tar user in the world. > Changes since the last upload: > > module-assistant (0.11.4+nmu1) UNRELEASED; urgency=low > > * Non-maintainer upload. > * try to open new (Linux >= 3.7) location for version.h aswell > as the old location(s), thanks to Evgeni Golov (Closes: #697269) > * fix xgettext 'invalid variable interpolation at "$"' error in > strings, thanks to Stefan Lippers-Hollmann (also in #697269) > * add Portuguese translation by Américo Monteiro (Closes: #591421) > * change from (implicit) source format v1 to v3 (native) > * fix "useful"-typo in manpage (found by lintian) > * bump Standards-Version to 3.9.4 (no changes needed) > * remove \w from the dpkg-deb matching regex as utf-8 characters > like "»«" 'qualify' as such so that m-a isn't extracting the path > correctly: The regex is now '[^./]' to eat everything as needed.
