Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: wishlist Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for my package "wmanager". This upload refreshes several aspects of the Debian packaging. * Package name : wmanager Version : 0.2.1-12 Upstream Author : Meik Tessmer <ful...@daemogorgon.net> * URL : http://www.daemogorgon.net/software/wmanager/ * License : GPL-2+ Section : x11 It builds a single binary package that has been tested with sbuild, Lintian, cme, and adequate: wmanager - window-manager selection tool used at X startup I am aware of one remaining Lintian warning about the watch file not functioning; the upstream author promised some years ago that he would update the site. I am slowly starting to consider adopting wmanager's upstream development, too, but let's give the original author the benefit of the doubt for a while longer. The package is available at mentors.d.n: http://mentors.debian.net/package/wmanager dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/w/wmanager/wmanager_0.2.1-12.dsc Changes since the last upload: wmanager (0.2.1-12) unstable; urgency=medium * Fix the Vcs-Git URL. * Bump the debhelper compatibility level to 9: - use debhelper's invocation of dpkg-buildflags, drop the versioned build dependency on dpkg-dev - use dpkg-buildflags's hardening flags, drop the build dependency on hardening-includes * Add the 05-strdup patch, replacing two unguarded uses of strcpy() with strdup(). Arguably the strcpy() uses were safe enough, but there's no harm in using strdup() and removing a Lintian warning. * Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.6: - drop the DM-Upload-Allowed field * Split the DEP-3 author information into several Author fields for the patches with multiple authors. * Update the copyright file to the 1.0 format and bump the years of my Debian packaging copyright notice. * Rewrite wmanagerrc-update in pure Perl, replace the perl5 and chase dependencies with perl:Depends. * Drop the version from the 'menu' suggestion, satisfied in oldstable. -- Peter Pentchev <r...@ringlet.net> Tue, 23 Sep 2014 16:25:30 +0300 Thanks in advance for any assistance with uploading this package!
