Bug#921954: gnulib



Hi

You may have noticed I adopted gnulib and have made an upload to
experimental.  I am happy to have this team maintained, so feel free to
join the effort -- I added Boyuan to Uploaders: since you've been doing
QA uploads for some time, but happy to add others too.

If you don't object, I will upload to unstable in a couple of days if
nothing comes up.  Relevant reading material on the changes I did for
this package:

https://salsa.debian.org/debian/gnulib/-/blob/debian/sid/debian/README.source
https://blog.josefsson.org/2024/04/13/reproducible-and-minimal-source-only-tarballs/

What do you think?  I hope I'm not stepping on anyone's toes here.  The
package was orphaned and is a critical component to be able to build
source-only tarballs for other packages in Debian.
