RFS: r5u87x



Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "r5u87x".

* Package name    : r5u87x
  Version         : 0.2.1+r63+dfsg1-1
  Upstream Author : Alexander Hixon <alex@alexhixon.com>
* URL             : http://www.bitbucket.org/ahixon/r5u87x/
* License         : GPL-2+
  Section         : contrib/misc

It builds these binary packages:
r5u87x     - firmware loader for cameras based on Ricoh R5U87x chipsets

The package appears to be lintian clean.

The upload would fix these bugs: 563081

My motivation for maintaining this package:
This firmware loader is currently the only way to make cameras based on Ricoh R5U87x chipsets work under Linux. These cameras are used on several Sony Vaio, HP Pavilion and Fujitsu Lifebook laptops. An RFP has been open on Launchpad for more than two and a half years (https://launchpad.net/bugs/120434).

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/contrib/r/r5u87x
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free - dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/contrib/r/r5u87x/r5u87x_0.2.1+r63+dfsg1-1.dsc

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.
Please CC me if you reply on-list.

Best regards,

David Jurenka
