["Artur R. Czechowski" <arturcz@hell.pl>]

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear mentors,

  I am looking for a sponsor for my package "libqglviewer"

 * Package name    : libqglviewer
   Version         : 2.3.15-1
   Upstream Author : Gilles Debune
 * URL             : http://www.libqglviewer.com/
 * License         : GPL2
   Section         : libs

  It builds those binary packages:

 libqglviewer-dev - OpenGL 3D viewer library based on Qt4 - development files
 libqglviewer-doc - OpenGL 3D viewer library - header files and documentation
 libqglviewer-qt3-dev - Dummy package.
 libqglviewer-qt4-2 - Dummy package to install libqglviewer2
 libqglviewer-qt4-dev - Dummy package to install libqglviewer-dev
 libqglviewer2 - OpenGL 3D viewer library based on Qt - runtime library

Package shall be uploaded to experimental. Package will be processed through
NEW queue because of new binary package.

  To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL:

  http://mentors.debian.net/package/libqglviewer

  Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

    dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/libq/libqglviewer/libqglviewer_2.3.15-1.dsc

  Changes since the last upload:

libqglviewer (2.3.15-1) experimental; urgency=low

  * New upstream release:
    + uses CONFIG += no_keywords so that the library can be used with Boost
      (LP: #414975)
    + is compilable with Qt 4.8 (Closes: #662702)
  * Don't build Qt3 version anymore (Closes: #604356)
  * Using upstream name convention: libQGLViewer instead of libqglviewer
  * drop no longer needed patches:
    + 01qt3-qt4
    + 99compile-examples
  * Lintian cleanup:
    + fix descriptions
    + libqglviewer-qt4-2 depends on ${misc:Depends}
    + build-arch and build-indep provided in debian/rules
  * Convert to 3.0 (quilt) format
    + remove dpatch from Build-Deps and all calls from debian/rules
    + update patches in debian/patches
    + replace debian/00list with debian/series
    + remove README.source
    + rename remaining patches - remove NN prefix
  * Update Standards-Version to 3.9.3
    + sort Breaks/Replaces/Provides dependencies for transition
  * Remove all transition related stuff. The dev package is libqglviewer-dev,
    the shared library package is libqglviewer2. All needed transition symlinks
    are provided in those packages.
  * Headers moved from libqglviewer-dev-common to libqglviewer-dev
  * libqglviewer-dev-common renamed to libqglviewer-doc
  * libqglviewer-qt4-2, libqglviewer-qt3-dev and libqglviewer-qt4-dev are now
    dummy transition packages
  * Remove debian/README.Multiflavour and other qt3 related artifacts from
    debian/
  * README.Debian cleanup
    + Merge all *.README.Debian into one file - the content is the same
    + Corrected upstream name in README.Debian
    + Updated URL of homepage
  * Provide upstreams GPL_EXCEPTION file, mention it in copyright one.
  * Override lintian warning: libqglviewer-qt4-2: empty-binary-package - it's
    empty transition package
