Bug#808167: RFS: adjtimex/1.29-7



Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "adjtimex"

* Package name    : adjtimex
* Version         : 1.29-7
* Upstream Author : Steven S. Dick <ssd@nevets.oau.org>, James R. Van
Zandt <jrvz@comcast.net>
* URL             : http://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/admin/time
* License         : GPL-2
* Section         : admin

It builds those binary packages:

  adjtimex   - kernel time variables configuration utility

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

  http://mentors.debian.net/package/adjtimex

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

    dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/a/adjtimex/adjtimex_1.29-7.dsc

Changes since the last upload:
   * remove the wrong debian/dirs line in changelog of previous version 1.29-6
   * debian/patches:
       - Replace patch 03 with the one by Bjarni I. Gislason, which also
         minimizes the time of lock over "/dev/rtc" (Closes: #724929).
       - Fix potential uninitialized memory accessing
         (thanks peppe <g1pi@libero.it>, Closes: #688933).
       - Avoid a few gcc warnings
   * debian/copyright: Add copyright for newly added patch
   * debian/adjtimexconfig:
       - Move tmp file during executing from /etc to /tmp.
       - Code clean up.
   * debian/templates + debian/config + debian/po + debian/NEWS:
       - Remove the debconf whether to start adjtimex on startup, which now
         depends on the existence of /etc/default/adjtimex file. By default,
         there's no /etc/default/adjtimex, which is generated by running:
         adjtimexconfig.
       - adjtimexconfig is still a choice in defconf, but change to false by
         default because it takes 70 seconds to excute on install/upgrade.
   * debian/postinst:
       - Refrain from running adjtimexconfig on configure, which is triggered by
         each install/upgrade
       - Refrain from starting adjtimex service on configure (Closes: #785208).
       - Code clean up.
   * debian/postrm:
       - Code clean up.
   * debian/adjtimex.init + debian/adjtimex.service: Start adjtimex service
       on startup only if config file /etc/default/adjtimex is ready.
   * debian/adjtimexconfig.8: Update man page

For the debconf change (remove adjtimex/run_daemon) and systemd
service change (add a condition path), it's already discussed in
systemd ML [0].

Thanks and look forward to the upload!

Cheers,
Roger Shimizu
