Bug#748882: RFS: hashalot/0.3-6 (updated, resend)



Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Hi guys!  It would be nice if someone could upload "hashalot" for me
(a tool for securely reading a passphrase).  This upload fixes a "must"
requirement of the policy.

The package can be dgetted from:
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/h/hashalot/hashalot_0.3-6.dsc

The changelog is:
  * Document that only the first line of input is hashed, for people who
    are looking for a general purpose hasher.  Closes: #544165.
  * Fix warnings from man.
  * Replace debian/rules with dh.
  * Use DEP-5 copyright format.
  * Drop useless README and ancient NEWS.Debian.
  * Upgrade the VCS to git.
    + ... including Vcs- fields (closes: #720265).
  * Upgrade to policy 3.9.5 (build-{arch,indep}), debhelper 9 (hardening).

The big change here is changing old style packaging to a dh two-liner.
Thus, it's probably easier to review this upload as a new package -- but
thanks to dh, that's quite minimal work.

Meow!
