Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal
Hi mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for "ifmetric", as well as possible support
for allowing me to upload as a DM.
Previous uploaders, since I've adopted ifmetric:
Gianfranco Costamagna <locutusofborg@debian.org>
Nicholas Breen <nbreen@debian.org>
This is not a frequently updated package and I'm not learning anything
new by just asking other people to upload every couple years. I have
requested support for DM upload on ifmetric from one of my
ca-certificates uploaders and received no reply (it was a long time ago..).
Anyway, here's the changelog, and if you're so inclined, I would be very
appreciative of a review of the changes and allowing me to do the actual
upload after a:
dcut dm --uid 0xA278B781FE4B2BDA --allow ifmetric

The package is lintian clean with a couple pedantic warnings.
The package shows 2 warnings on the mentors site that I have not been
able to resolve (bugs with mentors site?):
- Buildsystem: Package uses debhelper with an old compatibility level
- package is using: Build-Depends: debhelper-compat (= 12)
- Watch file is not present
- package has a d/watch file and uscan works as expected
I appreciate your time, and let me know if I need to fix something up.
Kind regards,
Michael

I don't know the package well enough, and done only a quite cursory review
this time... but 'ere you go.

That's a new scheme, it's natural that not all tools have yet been updated
for the newest and greatest way of specifying compat. I don't quite get the
point in changing this, but it's up to debhelper's maintainers, not me.
So noise like this is expected.

Works for me, too.
Meow!
