Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-CC: blade@debian.org

Dear mentors (and hi Eduard Bloch),


I am looking for a sponsor for the package "module-assistant" to get the
needed patches for compatibility with >= 3.7 kernel into Debian.

The package is marked by Eduard as LowNMU and the patches (by others) are
in the BTS for a while now, so hopefully without stepping on anyone’s toes:


   Package name    : module-assistant
   Version         : 0.11.4+nmu1
   Upstream Author : Eduard Bloch <blade@debian.org>
   License         : GPL-2+
   Section         : kernel

It builds those binary packages:

  module-assistant - tool to make module package creation easier

To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:

http://mentors.debian.net/package/module-assistant


Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

  dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/m/module-assistant/module-assistant_0.11.4+nmu1.dsc


I have a git repo based on the one on collab-maint temporary pushed to
  https://github.com/DonKult/module-assistant.git   if you prefer that.
(collab-maint misses at least the tag for 0.11.4 though)


Changes since the last upload:

module-assistant (0.11.4+nmu1) UNRELEASED; urgency=low

  * Non-maintainer upload.
  * try to open new (Linux >= 3.7) location for version.h aswell
    as the old location(s), thanks to Evgeni Golov (Closes: #697269)
  * fix xgettext 'invalid variable interpolation at "$"' error in
    strings, thanks to Stefan Lippers-Hollmann (also in #697269)
  * add Portuguese translation by Américo Monteiro (Closes: #591421)
  * change from (implicit) source format v1 to v3 (native)
  * fix "useful"-typo in manpage (found by lintian)
  * bump Standards-Version to 3.9.4 (no changes needed)
  * remove \w from the dpkg-deb matching regex as utf-8 characters
    like "»«" 'qualify' as such so that m-a isn't extracting the path
    correctly: The regex is now '[^./]' to eat everything as needed.


I did slightly more than strictly needed ("shut-up lintian/dpkg changes") as
I simply couldn't resists. I hope you don't mind, otherwise I am fine with
whatever you want me to do instead. ;)


Note: I have left the suite at UNRELEASED, intended is unstable of course,
but I couldn't really find a consensus in this or the other direction here.

Disclaimer (just in case): My perl knowledge is nearly non-existent, which in
turn means that I am not able to help with maintaining m-a in the long-term.


Best regards

David Kalnischkies

Great! Much better than this indeed.

So as this a no-op now, I am closing the request and happily await
your/Andreas upload then. :)


Thanks for your work & best regards
