Re: RFS: joystick (updated package)

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 20051019-5
of my package "joystick".

It builds these binary packages:
joystick   - set of testing and calibration tools for joysticks

The package appears to be lintian clean.

The upload would fix these bugs: 499414

Bug 499414 concerns an incorrect buffer size passed to ioctl(); it was
upgraded to RC as a result, then downgraded again on the grounds that the
relevant warning only appears with kernel 2.6.27 which isn't in Lenny. The
bug does apply to previous versions of the kernel though as I understand it.

The update to the package also fixes all lintian errors and warnings in the
previous version of the package, improves the documentation and includes a
segfault fix from Ubuntu. I'm hoping these changes aren't too ambitious for
possible inclusion in Lenny!

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/j/joystick
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main
contrib non-free
- dget
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/j/joystick/joystick_20051019-5.dsc

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

Kind regards
 Stephen Kitt
