Bug#1028101: RFS: texinfo/7.0.1-3 -- Documentation system for on-line information and printed output



Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "texinfo":

 * Package name     : texinfo
   Version          : 7.0.1-3
   Upstream contact : Help TexInfo <help-texinfo@gnu.org>
 * URL              : https://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/
 * License          : GFDL-1.3+, GPL-3+
 * Vcs              : https://github.com/debian-tex/texinfo
   Section          : doc

I'm aware of the lintian "source-is-missing" error. The issue has
been forwarded to upstream and will be addressed in next upstream
patch release.

The source builds the following binary packages:

  texinfo - Documentation system for on-line information and printed output
  texinfo-lib - Libraries needed by the texinfo package
  info - Standalone GNU Info documentation browser
  install-info - Manage installed documentation in info format

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

  https://mentors.debian.net/package/texinfo/

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

  dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/texinfo/texinfo_7.0.1-3.dsc

Changes since the last upload:

 texinfo (7.0.1-3) experimental; urgency=medium
 .
   * Move arch dependent parts of texinfo into separate package
     texinfo-lib.
   * Remove very outdated constraints, pointing to tetex*.
   * Lintian:
     - Migrate lintian overrides to new []-format to get rid of
       "mismatched-override".
     - Remove unused overrides.
     - Add overrides for bogus "very-long-line-length-in-source-file" and
       "source-is missing".
     - Add overrides for bogus "debian-news-entry-has-unknown-version"
     - "license-problem-gfdl-non-official-text": override and fix.
     - Fix "bad-whatis" in texi2dvi.1 manual page.
     - Fix "no-dep5-copyright".

Regards,
