RFS: v86d



Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "v86d". It is needed by the
uvesafb kernel module to create a userspace framebuffer (e.g. when you
want a 1400x1050 framebuffer, but vesafb does not support it).

* Package name    : v86d
  Version         : 0.1.3-1
  Upstream Author : Michał Januszewski <spock@gentoo.org>
* URL             : http://dev.gentoo.org/~spock/projects/uvesafb/
* License         : GPL-2
  Section         : utils

It builds these binary packages:
v86d       - daemon to run x86 code in an emulated environment

Long description:
  v86d provides a backend for kernel drivers that need to execute
  x86 BIOS code. The code is executed in a controlled environment
  and the results are passed back to the kernel via the netlink
  interface.
  .
  v86d is needed by the uvesafb kernel module.
  .
  This package is built against glibc, as Debian's klibc does not
  have proper uvesafb support yet.

The package appears to be lintian clean.

The upload would fix these bugs: 473176

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.workaround.org/debian/pool/main/v/v86d
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
main contrib non-free
- dget
http://mentors.workaround.org/debian/pool/main/v/v86d/v86d_0.1.3-1.dsc

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.

Kind regards
 Evgeni Golov
