Bug#1084920: RFS: caspar/20240818-1 -- Makefile snippets for centralized configuration management and typesetting

[Joost van Baal-Ilić <joostvb-debian@mdcc.cx>]

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Hi,

My PGP key expired, I've extended it and uploaded the extended key to
hkp://keyring.debian.org .  However, it seems this change did not yet trickle
down to our incoming machinery.  I would be grateful if anybody could sponsor
my latest work on my caspar package.

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "caspar":

 * Package name     : caspar
   Version          : 20240818-1
   Upstream contact : Joost van Baal-Ilić <joostvb-caspar@mdcc.cx>
 * URL              : http://mdcc.cx/caspar/
 * License          : GPL-3+
 * Vcs              : http://git.mdcc.cx/caspar.git/
   Section          : devel

The source builds the following binary packages:

  caspar - Makefile snippets for centralized configuration management and typesetting
  caspar-doc - documentation for caspar

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

  https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/caspar

You can download the package with 'dget' using this command:

  dget -x http://mdcc.cx/tmp/caspar/caspar_20240818-1.dsc

You can verify the integrity using my key 57930DAB0B86B067 from e.g.
hkp://the.earth.li , hkp://pgp.surf.nl , hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com or
hkp://keyring.debian.org .

Changes since the last upload:

caspar (20240818-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release - The Meždo Release
    + Upstream no longer ships typesetted (zoem) documentation in tarball
      release, but build-depends upon zoem.  This closes "Fails to build
      binary packages again after successful build". Thanks Lucas Nussbaum.
      (However, under some circumstances, dpkg-source detects local changes in
      aclocal.m4 and configure.  This might indicate a related bug.)
      (closes: #1049637)
    + d/control: add zoem, tidy and w3m to Build-Depends.
    + d/control: s/markdown/cmark/ in Suggests.
    + d/{rules,caspar-doc.install,caspar-doc.doc-base.{caspar,
      caspar-typesetting,csp_helper}}: do not try to install PostScript files:
      upstream no longer generates those.  BTW, one can easily generate .ps or
      PDF from manpages; e.g. "man -t caspar | ps2pdf" generates Portable
      Document Format on stdout.

  * d/{rules,lintian-overrides}: added lintian-overrides, call dh_lintian. see
    Bug#1076648: 'aephea: causes groff warning "cannot select font 'C'" [...]'
