Bug#929816: RFS: simhash/0.0.20161225-1 [ITA] -- generate similarity hashes to find nearly duplicate files
Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal
Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for my first package "simhash".
* Package name : simhash
Version : 0.0.20161225-1
Upstream Author : Bart Massey <bart@cs.pdx.edu>
* URL : http://wiki.cs.pdx.edu/forge/simhash.html
* License : BSD-3-clause
Section : utils
It builds those binary packages:
simhash - generate similarity hashes to find nearly duplicate files

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:
dget -x

http://wiki.cs.pdx.edu/forge/simhash.html.
Changes since the last upload:
* New maintainer. Closes: #652727
* Upgraded d/* according to Debian Policy 4.3.0.3.
Priority -> optional, Standards-Version -> 4.3.0, debhelper >= 12,
update Vcs-* fields, add simple testsuite and watch file,
remove redundant d/{clean,dirs,lintian-overrides}.
* Upstream cleaned up buffer signedness warned by gcc. (Git commit fa34436)
After packaging, I checked lintian, debdiff .dsc|.deb results, tried
install/remove/run, and https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/simhash. More
explanations:
* d/dirs removed: Its content is 'usr/bin' which belongs to FHS.
* d/simhash.linlian-overrides removed: It contained "no-upstream-
changelog", which is nonexisted in current lintian version.
* d/{clean,rules,test/*}: Based on source 'test.sh', the testsuite can
confirm the build procedure. d/clean is no needed also.
* d/{watch,source/lintian-overrides}: New version adds a watch file. It is
not very well but can do work.
Another request. I updated Vcs-* fields, but need you help to upload to
salsa.debian.org/debian/.
Regards,
laokz
