Bug#890666: RFS: mmh/0.3-3



Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "mmh"

* Package name     : mmh
  Version          : 0.3-3
  Upstream Author  : markus schnalke <meillo@marmaro.de>
* Url              : http://marmaro.de/prog/mmh/
* Licenses         : BSD-3-clause
  Programming Lang : C
  Section          : mail

 This is the mmh mail user agent (reader/sender), a command-line based mail
 reader that is powerful and extensible.  mmh is an excellent choice for
 people who receive and process a lot of mail.
 .
 Unlike most mail user agents, mmh is not a single program, rather it is a
 set of programs that are run from the shell.  This allows the user to
 utilize the full power of the Unix shell in coordination with mmh.
 .
 Mmh is a modified version of the electronic mail handling system nmh.
 Nmh (new MH) itself was originally based on the package MH-6.8.3, and
 was intended to be a (mostly) compatible drop-in replacement for MH.
 In contrast, mmh is not intended to be a drop-in replacement for nmh,
 rather mmh breaks compatibility to nmh in order to modernize and
 simplify it.

It builds those binary packages:

  * mmh

This package succesfully builds on debomatic machine:

  https://debomatic-i386.debian.net/distribution#unstable/mmh/0.3-3
 
Please note, that package is maintained with dgit(1) tool
using dgit-maint-merge(7) workflow. For more information about how to
sponsor this package, see dgit-sponsorship(7).

  Git repository: https://salsa.debian.org/iu-guest/mmh.git
  Git branch: master

With /bin/sh following commands should suffice:

  $ git clone https://salsa.debian.org/iu-guest/mmh.git mmh
  $ cd mmh
  $ make -f debian/rules get-orig-source # 'gbp buildpackage' is fine
  $ dgit sbuild


Changes since last upload:

  * Update Vcs-* fields in debian/control.
  * Compile with large file support
  * Update standards version to 4.1.3 (no changes needed)
  * Bump compat version to 11 (added explicit --no-parallel, since upstream
    build system does not use Automake and is not parallel-safe)
  * Remove useless build-dependency on dh-autoreconf, which is implied by
    debhelper (>= 10)
  * Fix incorrect reference to nmh in description
  * Replace generic BSD-3-clause with specific version from COPYRIGHT file in
    debian/copyright due request of upstream author.
  * Patch config/version.sh to not insert non-reproducible data into binaries

Regards,
  Dmitry Bogatov
