RFS: network-manager-l2tp_1.2.10-1~bpo9+1

[Douglas Kosovic <doug@uq.edu.au>]

Dear debian-backports list,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "network-manager-l2tp" into stretch-backports as it never made it to stretch-stable because it was first submitted to Debian (unstable) some months after Stretch was released.

I'm the current upstream network-manager-l2tp author/maintainer and Debian package maintainer. I've had a number of requests for network-manager-l2tp Stretch binary packages and others have provided Stretch instructions on how to manually install the package from the Sid repository, e.g. : 
    https://thomask.sdf.org/blog/2018/01/16/l2tp-vpn-networkmanager-debian-stretch.html

A sbuild built source package has been uploaded to mentors.debian.net:
   https://mentors.debian.net/package/network-manager-l2tp

The respective dsc file can be found at:
    https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/n/network-manager-l2tp/network-manager-l2tp_1.2.10-1~bpo9+1.dsc

A temporary Vcs-Git/Vcs-Browser URL for network-manager-l2tp_1.2.10-1~bpo9+1 is:
    https://github.com/dkosovic/debian.git
I will use the regular Vcs-Git location if this backport gets approved.

It is a no-change rebuild for stretch-backports (apart from the debian/changelog file).

It builds "network-manager-l2tp" and "network-manager-l2tp-gnome" binary packages.


Thanks,
Doug
