Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal
Hello all,
I would appreciate a sponsor for an ITA of "ifmetric"
Package name : ifmetric
Version : 0.3-3
Upstream Author : Lennart Poettering <mzvszrg...@0pointer.de>
URL : http://0pointer.de/lennart/projects/ifmetric/
License : GPL-2+
Section : net
It builds this binary package:
ifmetric - Set routing metrics for a network interface
After waiting a while for a reply on #514197, I was recently able to
contact the previous maintainer at a personal email address, and he was
happy to have me adopt ifmetric. I asked for a confirmation reply to
the ITA I created, #721769, but have not seen one, as of yet. (There
was no O: filed, although he though he had filed one.)
ifmetric has been basically non-functional since #514197 and I have been
maintaining my own patched copy since that time. For the ITA, I have
fully updated all the packaging to current standards and lintian
--pedantic goodness.
Here's the mentors URL:
http://mentors.debian.net/package/ifmetric
Here's the dget command:
dget -x
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/i/ifmetric/ifmetric_0.3-3.dsc
And here are the collab-maint repository URLs (pristine-tar,
git-buildpackage ready):
git://anonscm.debian.org/collab-maint/ifmetric.git
git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/collab-maint/ifmetric.git
