Bug#881035: RFS: unixodbc/2.3.4-1.1 [NMU]
Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal
Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for an NMU of the package "unixodbc".
* Package name: unixodbc
Version: 2.3.4-1.1
Upstream Author: Nick Gorham <nick@unixodbc.org>
* URL: http://www.unixodbc.org
* License: LGPL v2.1
Section: libs
The source builds the following binary packages:
* libodbc1 - ODBC library for Unix
* odbcinst - Helper program for accessing odbc ini files
* odbcinst1debian2 - Support library for accessing odbc ini files
* unixodbc - Basic ODBC tools
* unixodbc-dev - ODBC libraries for UNIX (development files)
To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL:
https://mentors.debian.net/package/unixodbc
Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:
dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/u/unixodbc/unixodbc_2.3.4-1.1.dsc
More information about unixodbc can be obtained from http://www.unixodbc.org.
Changes since the last upload:
* Non-maintainer upload.
* debian/control:
- Mark unixodbc-dev Multi-Arch: same (Closes: #872411).
- Depend on libltdl-dev instead of libltdl3-dev.
* debian/rules:
- Compile with --enable-fastvalidate to avoid performance degradation
when working with large numbers of handles (Closes: #819622).
- Move unixodbc_conf.h to /usr/include/<triplet> to avoid
a file conflict on multi-arch systems.
I am aware that the package needs work to clean it up - e.g. converting to package format 3.0,
fixing lintian issues and so on. This work is not possible in a general NMU and, as a result, has
not been included in this release.
Regards,
Hugh McMaster
