Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist
Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for my package "tfortune":
* Package name : tfortune
Version : 1.0.0
Upstream Author : Andre Noll <maan@tuebingen.mpg.de>
* URL : http://people.tuebingen.mpg.de/maan/tfortune/
* License : GPLv3
Section : games
It builds the following binary package:
tfortune - fortune cookies with tags
About: tfortune is a re-implementation of the venerable fortune
program with a couple of additional features for epigram selection
and management. It depends on the lopsub library which was recently
uploaded to unstable but has no other unusual requirements.
Quoting from the above web page:
Like fortune(1), tfortune is a Unix command line utility which prints
a random epigram. Epigrams are stored as plain text files, but they
must be annotated with tags to make full use of the features which
tfortune offers over other implementations.
Tfortune has a built-in matching language for epigrams. User-supplied
tag expressions define subsets of admissible epigrams. If a tag
expression is given, epigrams are picked from the admissible subset
only.
You can grab a copy by running
git clone git://git.tuebingen.mpg.de/tfortune/
This will get you three branches: master, pu, and t/debian
The t/debian branch contains a two of commits on top of master which
add the debian/ directory with the usual files in it. The commands
git checkout origin/t/debian
git archive --prefix tfortune-1.0.0/ @ | xz > ../tfortune_1.0.0.orig.tar.xz
dpkg-buildpackage
should work as expected. This has been tested on debian-9, debian-10
and debian-11.
Thanks
Andre
