Bug#831792: RFS: scid/1:4.6.2-0.1 [NMU]

["Jose G. López" <josgalo@gmail.com>]

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "scid":

* Package name    : scid
  Version         : 4.6.2-0.1 
  Upstream Author : Fulvio Benini <fulvioscid@users.sf.net>
* URL             : http://scid.sf.net
* License         : GPL v2
  Section         : games

It builds those binary packages:

  scid - chess database with play and training functionality
  scid-data  - data files for scid, the chess database application

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

  https://mentors.debian.net/package/scid

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

  dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/scid/scid_4.6.2-0.1.dsc

As advised by Gianfranco I've upload the package to mentors. It closes some other bugs not reproducible by the current version and is lintian clean (hope so :-)).

Package development is on the following repo:

https://gitlab.com/deb-pkg/scid
