Bug#867727: RFS: parlatype/1.5.1-1 [ITP]
Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist
Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for my package "parlatype"
* Package name : parlatype
Version : 1.5.1-1
Upstream Author : Gabor Karsay <gabor.karsay@gmx.at>
* URL : http://gkarsay.github.io/parlatype/
* License : GPL-3
Section : gnome
It builds those binary packages:
gir1.2-parlatype-1.0 - Library for Parlatype - gir bindings
libparlatype-dev - Library for Parlatype - development version
libparlatype-doc - Documentation files for the Parlatype library
libparlatype1 - Library for Parlatype - runtime version
parlatype - Minimal audio player for manual speech transcription
parlatype-libreoffice-helpers - Set of macros for LibreOffice
To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:
dget -x
https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/parlatype/parlatype_1.5.1-1.dsc
More information about parlatype can be obtained from

I am also the upstream author. The first public release was in January
2016, the program is in a good state, is already translated in a few
languages and fills a gap for an easy to use transcription utility
(manual transcription). I'm not aware of another program in Debian for
GNOME, targeting transcriptions and also offering a waveform.
I was packaging it already for a time for Ubuntu. The package was built
with pbuilder in a sid chroot. There is one lintian warning that I don't
know what to do with: hardening-no-fortify-functions. I think the
compiler flags are set right, but I don't know if I should override it.
There's also one thing unclear to me about the procedure: Is this
sponsorship request enough or should I file a WNPP bug, too?
Thank you
Gabor Karsay
