Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: minor Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for my package "dante". This is both a new upstream version with many bugfixes and new features and also almost a full overhaul of the Debian packaging under the guise of using new features of the build tools. * Package name : dante Version : 1.4.1+dfsg-1 Upstream Author : Inferno Nettverk A/S, Norway <dante-bugs@inet.no> * URL : http://www.inet.no/dante/ * License : other, similar to a BSD-3-Clause with two advertising clauses Section : net It builds those binary packages: dante-client - SOCKS wrapper for users behind a firewall dante-client-lib - SOCKS library preloaded in user applications dante-server - SOCKS (v4 and v5) proxy daemon (danted) libsocksd0 - SOCKS library for packages built using libsocksd-dev libsocksd0-dev - Development files for compiling programs with SOCKS support They have been built with sbuild and tested with Lintian. To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: http://mentors.debian.net/package/dante Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/d/dante/dante_1.4.1+dfsg-1.dsc Thanks in advance for your time and assistance! Changes since the last upload: * Fix FTBFS by depending on libtool-bin instead of libtool. Closes: #776907 * Remove the obsolete DM-Upload-Allowed source control field. * Note the migration to my GitLab repository in the Vcs-* fields. * Use the default dpkg-dev source package compression method. * Drop the versions from the autotools-dev and dpkg-dev dependencies. * Fix the broken .so symlink in libsocksd0-dev. Closes: #715117 * Bump the debhelper compatibility level to 10: - install into the multiarch library directory - get the compiler and linker flags directly from debhelper - override the "experimental debhelper version" Lintian warning * New upstream version: - Closes: #740749 (new upstream version) - Closes: #731178 (tries to dlopen a linker script) - rework some of the patches to modify the *.am files instead of the *.in ones; Closes: #716681 - add a lot more filenames to debian/clean - put the preloaded libdsocksd back into a separate package, now named dante-client-lib, in preparation for socksify being able to select the one with the correct ABI/architecture; drop the 15-lib-dante-client patch that is no longer applicable - update the libsocksd0 symbols file - all the internal symbols were dropped from the public interface; this should cause no trouble, since none of these should ever have been used by anything external. Closes: #626316 - drop the no longer shipped TODO doc file - update the patches - drop the 07-rconnect patch, it seems to be handled upstream - drop the 13-c-warnings patch, it was integrated upstream - drop the check for PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK, we really need it; if it turns out not to be available on some architectures, we'll figure out ways around that * Add Multi-Arch headers to the binary packages. * Add the multiarch-find-lib tool to the dante-client package and preload exactly the libraries needed for the file being executed. This tool was obtained from my multiarch-query repository at https://gitlab.com/roam-multiarch-tools/multiarch-query and it will most probably be released separately soon. Closes: #656096 * Add the 19-standards patch to add _DEFAULT_SOURCE to the _BSD_SOURCE definition that is declared obsolete in recent libc versions; also, add *-gnu to the triplets mask to include kFreeBSD and the Hurd. * Declare compliance with Debian Policy 3.9.8: - update the copyright file to the 1.0 format * Add the 21-typos patch to fix some typographical and grammatical errors. * Bring dante-server's danted.init script up to date: - add an LSB Description - source the LSB init-functions file - add a 'status' command * Fix the 03-configure patch's header: "Author" is a single-line field. * Add an upstream metadata file. * Drop the dante-server and dante-client.preinst files, upgrades from version 0.92 are... not expected to happen. * Drop the leftover debian/socks.h file; we've been using the upstream one for more than ten years now. * Use the upstream version of the socksify.1 manual page. * Upload to unstable; dante has been gone from testing long enough that this will not disrupt anything.
