Bug#826769: RFS: arc-theme/20160605-1 ITP



Package: sponsorship-requests
  Severity: wishlist

  Dear mentors,

  I am looking for a sponsor for my package "arc-theme"

 * Package name    : arc-theme
   Version         : 20160605-1
   Upstream Author : horst3180 <email is hidden>
 * URL             : https://github.com/horst3180/arc-theme
 * License         : GPL-3+
   Section         : misc

  It builds those binary packages:

    arc-theme  - A flat theme with transparent elements

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

  https://mentors.debian.net/package/arc-theme


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

    dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/a/arc-theme/arc-theme_20160605-1.dsc

  More information about hello can be obtained from https://www.example.com.

Notes:

I am the maintainer of a Ubuntu based distro called budgie-remix which
uses arc-theme as its key theme - hence why I'm excited to maintain this package for the wider
Debian community. budgie-remix uses the new desktop environment called budgie-desktop which I have also packaged here

- https://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2016/05/msg00551.html

arc-theme is a highly popular theme used by several distros.  It is installed currently
by users through the upstream maintainer OBS repository or via manual compilation.

I'm providing this package to allow all Debian users and Debian derivatives a native 
package rather than depending upon a third-party non-native Debian repo.

I've asked the question here as to whether upstream will sign future tag releases:
