Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: important Dear mentors, I am looking for a spondor for a QA upload of sortmail, fixing a stretch RC bug. Although Hamish Moffatt suggested removing the package from Debian in his orphaning bug report, popcon reports there are users and upstream is active (they have already applied a patch I forwarded). I have not fixed everything that could be fixed; I fixed the RC bug, and tried to get the package into a more attractive state for adoption. * Package name : sortmail Version : 1:2.4-2 Upstream Author : Edward A. Falk * URL : http://sortmail.sourceforge.net * License : BSD-1-clause Section : mail Changes since the last upload: * QA upload. * Set maintainer to QA team (see #790732). * Switch to source format 3.0 (quilt). * Modernise d/rules: - Bump debhelper compat & build dependency to 9 (Closes: #817673). - Use dh sequencer, overriding dh_auto_install. - Enable --parallel. - Add ${misc:Depends} to bin:sortmail dependencies. - Add d/examples. - Add d/docs. - Add d/install. - Add d/manpages (Closes: #593763). * Apply patch from Mathias Klose to fix build with ld --as-needed (Closes: #641440). * Add enable-debugging-symbols.patch so dh_strip can generate sortmail-dbgsym. * Remove article from description synopsis. * Add Vcs-* fields pointing to collab-maint. * Add Homepage: field. * Declare compliance with policy version 3.9.8. - Re-encode d/copyright as UTF-8. Download with dget: dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/sortmail/sortmail_1:2.4-2.dsc Or build it with gbp: gbp clone --pristine-tar https://anonscm.debian.org/git/collab-maint/sortmail.git cd sortmail git checkout debian/1:2.4-2 git verify-tag debian/1:2.4-2 # if you have my key gbp buildpackage Thanks. -- Sean Whitton
