[Hugh McMaster <hugh.mcmaster@outlook.com>]

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear mentors and Debian PhotoTools Team members,

I am looking for a sponsor for a Team Upload of the package "libexif".

 * Package name    : libexif
   Version         : 0.6.21-6
   Upstream Author : Dan Fandrich <dan@coneharvesters.com>,
 * URL             : https://libexif.github.io/
 * License         : LGPL-2.1+
 * Vcs             : https://salsa.debian.org/debian-phototools-team/libexif
   Section         : libs

The source builds the following binary packages:

  libexif12 - library to parse EXIF files
  libexif-dev - library to parse EXIF files (development files)
  libexif-doc - library to parse EXIF files (documentation)

To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:

  https://mentors.debian.net/package/libexif

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

  dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/libe/libexif/libexif_0.6.21-6.dsc

Changes since the last upload:

   * Team upload.
   * Acknowledge NMU by Salvatore Bonaccorso.
   * debian/changelog: Remove trailing whitespace.
   * debian/control:
     - Build-Depend on debhelper-compat (=12).
     - Raise Standards-Version to 4.5.0 from 4.1.3 (no changes needed).
     - Declare Rules-Requires-Root: no.
   * debian/patches: Add upstream patches by Marcus Meissner:
     - Avoid the use of unsafe integer overflow checking constructs
       (CVE-2019-9287) (Closes: #945948).
     - Avoid implicit behaviour by casting to unsigned int before shifting left.
   * debian/rules: Do not manually install libexif.pc into a multi-arch libdir.
   * libexif12.symbols: Specify libexif-dev in the Build-Depends-Package
       meta-information field.
   * Add Debian upstream/metadata file.

Regards,
