Re: Sponsor needed for alberta package with soversion bump



Hi Markus,

Hi,

there was a new upstream release of alberta and I have prepared
all the changes needed for packaging. You can find all the changes in
the salsa repository [1].

Thanks a lot for updating alberta!


There was a soversion bump from 4 to 5 due to ABI
incompatibilities. As I am not a maintainer and the packge will go to the NEW queue, I cannot upload it myself.

Would be cool if somebody else would sponsor my changes. If I need to
make more changes to the package then please tell me so.

I reviewed the package and have some questions/remarks. Only the first ont /has/ to be addressed before uploading to NEW.

- some copyright holders are missing:
$ grep -r "Copyright" ./* | grep -v -e "debian"
shows the names of Universitaet Freiburg, Universitaet Bonn, Hiroshi Nakashima, Markus Kohm, Radical Eye Software. Could you please update thoroughly d/copyright?

- Following Lintian: no need to set DEB_HOST_ARCH in d/rules, including /usr/share/dpkg/architecture.mk is enough

- d/libalberta5.lintian-overrides can now be removed, it overrides nothing.

- Do you know why the Salsa repo holds only the debian/ directory and not the whole source?


Thanks a lot and have a nice weekend.

Best,

Markus
