Bug#823474: RFS: btrfs-progs/4.5.2-0.1~exp1

[Nicholas D Steeves <nsteeves@gmail.com>]

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "btrfs-progs".  I've read
upstream reports of regressions in the 4.5.x series that were solved
by downgrading to 4.4.x, so I believe that it is most appropriate to
upload to experimental at this time.  When the reports of regressions
are solved in a future upstream version I will update this package and
request an upload to sid.

Package name: btrfs-progs
Version: 4.5.2-0.1~exp1
Section: admin

It builds these binary packages:

btrfs-progs - Checksumming Copy on Write Filesystem utilities
btrfs-progs-dbg - Checksumming Copy on Write Filesystem utilities (debug)
btrfs-progs-udeb - Checksumming Copy on Write Filesystem utilities (udeb) (udeb)
btrfs-tools - transitional dummy package
btrfs-tools-dbg - transitional dummy package

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

    https://mentors.debian.net/package/btrfs-progs

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

    dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/b/btrfs-progs/btrfs-progs_4.5.2-0.1~exp1.dsc

Changes since the last upload:

  * Non-maintainer upload.
  * New upstream release.
  * Add upstream changelog.
  * Update standards version to 3.9.8 (no changes needed).
  * Add btrfs-convert support to initramfs (Closes: #801192).
  * Divert btrfs-convert to a wrapper script that warns against its use.

Thanks again!
Nicholas
