Bug#857856: RFS: gmrun/0.9.2-2.2 [RC, NMU]



Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: important

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for the package "gmrun".

* Package name    : gmrun
  Version         : 0.9.2-2.2
  Upstream Author : Mihai Bazon <mishoo@infoiasi.ro>
* URL             : https://sourceforge.net/projects/gmrun/
* License         : GPLv2
  Section         : x11

It builds those binary packages:

  gmrun - Featureful CLI-like GTK+ application launcher

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

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


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

  dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/gmrun/gmrun_0.9.2-2.2.dsc


The automatic update ("recompiled with PIC") broke the package (because
of API changes in gtk2, it now only produces sgementation faults). The
uploaded package includes the patch extracted from the Fedora project
(provided by Andreas Henriksson) to fix the issue.

There was some discussion if there should be more changes to the package
(standads version, debhelper compatibility level, additional hardening
options) in 
  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=857065
and we basically agreed to only fix the RC bug and make further changes
to the package in buster (and possibly experimental) only.


Thank you
Lukas Schwaighofer
