Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: normal Hello
I'm looking for an sponsor of my package uptimed, I want to adopt this package after it was orphaned by the previous maintainer #830765 uptimed is an old package (in debian since '99) it has many bugs open, I fixed some bugs but others I wasn't able to reproduce them, so my plan is to upload to experimental and contact the reporters to see if they/I can reproduce the bugs then fix them. I want to upload to experimental to check if it builds reproducibly in all Debian architectures. Be aware that I'll request another upload latter for unstable. debian/rules and packaging in general was polished, modernized, and uploaded to collab-maint this is the changelog uptimed (1:0.4.0+git20150923.6b22106-1) experimental; urgency=medium * New maintainer, thanks Thibaut Varene for your previous work (Closes: #830765) * Packaging is now maintained in collab-maint using a git repo * Packaging an snapshot from upstream * Packaging using git tags instead of tarballs * Change dh compat to level 9. No changes were needed * Build depend on debhelper 9 and dh-autoreconf * Update Homepage field on debian/control (Closes: #806456) * Handle missing /etc/uptimed.conf (Closes: #680419) * Simplify uptimed init.d script, restart unconditionally on uptimed postinst * Match the location of the $PIDFILE in the init script and the daemon configuration (Closes: #336922) (LP: #482629) * Create /run/uptimed via a tmpfile on systemd systems * Change the default interval to save the database from 300 to 3600 seconds * Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.8. No changes were needed * Override 2 lintian warnings (unused-debconf-template) * Remove perl dependency on libuptimed0 and libuptimed-dev, perl-base is enough * Change watch file to look at github * Update uptimed's service file, to start after the time is in sync, it still may fail if systemd-timesyncd.service is not in use * Update uptimed's service to provide uptimed's documentation * More modern debian/rules * Print a warning on debconf when reducing MAX_RECORDS (Closes: #573232) * Add pristine-tar to git repo -- gustavo panizzo <g...@zumbi.com.ar> Tue, 04 Oct 2016 15:58:19 +0800 git repo can be found here git.debian.org:/git/collab-maint/uptimed.git built package can be found on mentors https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/u/uptimed/uptimed_0.4.0+git20150923.6b22106-1.dsc thanks! -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (300, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.6.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)
