Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: important Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor of the package "xvt": Package name : xvt Version : 2.1-20.2 Upstream Author : John Bovey, University of Kent at Canterbury. URL : none License : permissive Section : x11 It builds a single binary package: xvt - X terminal-emulator similar to xterm, but smaller For information about the state of this packaging, see https://mentors.debian.net/package/xvt The package is downloaded in a standard manner: dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/x/xvt/xvt_2.1-20.2.dsc Observe, that the primary intent of this NMU is to avoid the removal of this software, since debhelper compatibility level 4 will be dis- allowed within very shortly, possibly in a fortnight. Changes since the last upload: * Non-maintainer upload. * Move to compatibility 5, which is the minimally available level in the present release cycle. Closes: #817740. * Disable menu file creation, but include a new desktop file. + debian/rules: Updated. + debian/xvt.desktop: New file. I have offered to assume maintainership of this package, but Sam Hocevar has not responded in any manner whatsoever. Regards, Mats Erik Andersson
