Bug#932866: RFS: elpy/1.29.1+31.ge61540b-1

[Nicholas D Steeves <nsteeves@gmail.com>]

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear Chris and mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "elpy".  A new upstream
version is needed because self-tests are failing in DebCI with the
existing version due to the new version of Black.  I chose to package
a git snapshot because it's a poor use of free time to rebase and
3-way merge the patch queue onto the last stable release, and because
if the relaxed timing for self-tests doesn't do the trick on DebCI
then we'll need something close to upstream/master to work with
upstream on a fix.

Package name    : elpy
Version         : 1.29.1+31.ge61540b-1
URL             : https://github.com/jorgenschaefer/elpy
License         : GPL-3+
Section         : devel

It builds this binary package:

  elpa-elpy - Emacs Python Development Environment
