I'm merging bugs as it is needed only one for the source package, not for
every binary package.
I can sponsor the package, but there are a lot of issues with the
packaging that need to be fixed. Lintian report:
W: libdmtx source: substvar-source-version-is-deprecated libdmtx-utils
W: libdmtx source: out-of-date-standards-version 3.7.2 (current is 3.7.3)
W: libdmtx source: maintainer-upload-has-incorrect-version-number 0.4.0-codegnome.3
W: libdmtx-utils: copyright-lists-upstream-authors-with-dh_make-boilerplate
E: libdmtx-utils: missing-dependency-on-libc needed by ./usr/bin/dmtxread and 1 others
W: libdmtx-dev: copyright-lists-upstream-authors-with-dh_make-boilerplate
W: libdmtx: extra-license-file usr/share/doc/libdmtx/COPYING.gz
W: libdmtx: package-contains-upstream-install-documentation usr/share/doc/libdmtx/INSTALL.gz
W: libdmtx: spelling-error-in-readme-debian seperate separate
W: libdmtx: non-dev-pkg-with-shlib-symlink usr/lib/libdmtx.so.0.0.0 usr/lib/libdmtx.so
W: libdmtx: copyright-lists-upstream-authors-with-dh_make-boilerplate
W: libdmtx: package-name-doesnt-match-sonames libdmtx0
E: libdmtx: missing-dependency-on-libc needed by ./usr/lib/libdmtx.so.0.0.0
All of them are easy to fix.
As I need to use the dmtx utils now in several computers I've repackaged it
quickly with cdbs, I like cdbs because it is easier and cleaner than just
using debhelper, but I'm not familiar with the python packaging of the
binding and I don't have much time to finish it.
If you fix that issues I'll sponsor the package, if you are still interested
in maintaining it.
Salud,
