Re: RFS: mosquitto (updated version)

[Roger Light <roger@atchoo.org>]

Hi,

I'm looking for a sponsor for my package mosquitto, detailed below.
It'd be great if someone would give me an early Christmas present by
uploading it.

There are a few warnings generated when building the package:

   dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: dependency on libgcc_s.so.1 could be
   avoided if "debian/libmosquittopp0/usr/lib/libmosquittopp.so.0"
   were not uselessly linked against it (they use none of its
   symbols).

The dependency on libgcc_s.so.1 is added by g++ automatically, it
isn't part of the build itself. I believe this warning is a false
positive.

   dpkg-gencontrol: warning: package python-mosquitto: unused
   substitution variable ${python:Versions}
   dpkg-gencontrol: warning: package python-mosquitto: unused
   substitution variable ${python:Provides}

I'm told that these are safe to ignore if python-support is being
used, which is the case.


* Package name    : mosquitto
 Version         : 0.9.1-1
 Upstream Author : Roger Light <roger@atchoo.org>
* URL             : http://mosquitto.org/
* License         : BSD
 Section         : net

It builds these binary packages:
libmosquitto0 - MQTT version 3.1 client library
libmosquitto-dev - MQTT version 3.1 client library, development files
libmosquittopp0 - MQTT version 3.1 client C++ library
libmosquittopp-dev - MQTT version 3.1 client C++ library, development files
mosquitto  - MQTT version 3 compatible message broker
mosquitto-pub - Mosquitto command line publish client
mosquitto-sub - Mosquitto command line subscribe client
python-mosquitto - MQTT version 3.1 client library, python bindings

The upload would fix these bugs: 605319

My motivation for maintaining this package is that I'm the upstream
author and want to make it easier for people to get access to it.
