Package: sponsorship-requests

Dear mentors,

I appreciate that 4.8.0 came out over the weekend, as the new maintainer of the

perspective, so that any new imports would be as clean as possible.

Changes since the last upload:

sosreport (4.7.2-2) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* d/control, d/rules: (Closes: #1018639)
- Remove python3-nose
- Don't to checks
- This has been disabled till we port avocado to Debian
.
* d/tests/control:
- Remove isolation-machine, this is not here for Debian, and only on
Ubuntu. The autopkgtest fail with this attribute.
.
* d/tests/simple.sh:
- Remove the check of free command. This doesn't work due to the fact
autopkgtest are run in a docker style environment.
- Ignore the "Unable to read" messages in stderr for kernel. The
environment doesn't have these files, and hence brings them into stderr.
But, this isn't an issue in this particular environment.
.
* d/p/*.patch:
- Updated all patches based on patch-queue. This makes all the patches more
consistent across the board, and keeps to one style.
.
* d/sources/lintian-override:
- Add file to ignore 2 checks
1. very-long-line-length-in-source-file
2. debian-watch-does-not-check-openpgp-signature
.

- Explicitly add Forwarded attribute
.
* d/p/0003_man-sos-report.patch:
- Remove the unspelt correction in the description
- Add Origin, as that has been merged upstream
.
* Remaining patches:
