Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist
Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for my package "faba-icon-theme"
* Package name : faba-icon-theme
Version : 4.1.2-1
Upstream Author : Sam Hewitt <sam@snwh.org>
* URL : github.com/moka-project/faba-icon-theme
* License : LGPL-3.0 or CC-BY-SA-4.0
Section : misc
It builds those binary packages:
faba-icon-theme - Tango influenced icon theme called Faba
To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL:
https://mentors.debian.net/package/faba-icon-theme
Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:
dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/f/faba-icon-theme/faba-icon-theme_4.1.2-1.dsc
Notes:
I am the maintainer of a Ubuntu based distro called budgie-remix which
uses moka-icon-theme & faba-icon-theme as its key icon themes - hence why I'm excited to maintain this package for the wider
Debian community. budgie-remix uses the new desktop environment called budgie-desktop which I have also packaged here
- https://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2016/05/msg00551.html
moka-icon-theme is a highly popular icon theme used by several distros. faba-icon-theme is the base theme for moka.
It is installed currently by Ubuntu users through the upstream maintainer PPA repository or via manual compilation.
I'm providing this package to allow all Debian users and Debian derivatives a native
package rather than depending upon a third-party Ubuntu only repo.
I've asked the question here as to whether upstream will sign future tag releases:
- https://github.com/moka-project/moka-icon-theme/issues/232
The upstream maintainer has indicated that they do not wish to GPG sign releases on his project.
Regards,
David Mohammed
