Bug#736871: RFS: calibre/1.14.0+dfsg-1~bpo70+1
Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal
Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for a backport of the package
"calibre". The current calibre package maintainer has also
been made aware of this backport.
* Package name : calibre
Version : 1.14.0+dfsg-1~bpo70+1
Upstream Author : Kovid Goyal (kovid@kovidgoyal.net)
* URL : http://calibre-ebook.com
* License : GPL-3/GPL-2/BSD/LGPL2.1+/MIT/other
Section : text
There are multiple licenses involved, see:
http://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs//main/c/calibre/calibre_1.14.0+dfsg-1_copyright
It builds these binary packages:
calibre - e-book converter and library management
calibre-bin - e-book converter and library management
To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:
http://mentors.debian.net/package/calibre
Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:
dget -x
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/calibre/calibre_1.14.0+dfsg-1~bpo70+1.dsc
Calibre depends on a backport of "mathjax" which I'm also seeking a
sponsor for (see bug #736861)
