RFS: tina (adopted, updated a lot, turned non-native)



Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 0.1.11-1
of the package "tina".  This is an adoption attempt
(ITA #466331), which updates the Debian packaging a lot
and converts the package to a non-native one with pretty
much no changes to the actual sources, just extracted into
a separate tarball and hosted on my website.

Of course, I realize it would be quite the cheeky thing to
mention DM-Upload-Allowed on the very first adoption upload,
but if the sponsor who decides to take a look is already
familiar with my work on other packages, well, what can
I say but something about being very grateful ;)

There is a single binary package:
tina       - Text-based personal information manager

It has been tested with lintian and pbuilder.

The upload would fix these bugs: 466331 (ITA)

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/tina/tina_0.1.11-1.dsc

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

JFYI, here's my adoption changelog entry:

tina (0.1.11-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New maintainer.  Closes: #466331
  * Convert tina to a non-native package.
  * Use debhelper 7:
    - create debian/compat
    - add a dependency on debhelper >= 7
    - minimize the rules file by using the dh(1) utility
    - add misc:Depends to the binary package
  * Remove the obsolete prerm script - tina has not been creating
    the /usr/doc/tina link for some time now.
  * Convert to the 3.0 (quilt) source format with no changes.
  * Add a watch file.
  * Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.4:
    - add the Homepage field
  * Improve the package synopsis a bit and reflow the long description.
  * Convert the copyright file to rev. 135 of the proposed DEP 5 format
    and add my copyright notice on the Debian packaging files.
  * Add the Vcs-Svn and Vcs-Browser source control fields.
  * Use dpkg-buildflags from dpkg-dev >= 1.15.7~ to obtain CFLAGS, CPPFLAGS,
    and LDFLAGS; no longer rely on dpkg-buildpackage to set them by default.
  * Pass -Werror to the compiler if the non-standard "werror" build
    option is set.
  * Add the 01-warnings patch to fix some compiler warnings.
  * Use a debhelper override to pass -Wstrict-prototypes at build time,
    since the configure script chokes on it.
  * Use build hardening by default unless the non-standard "nohardening"
    build option is set.
