Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: normal Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for my package "desktopfolder" * Package name : desktopfolder Version : 1.1.0-2 Upstream Author : José Amuedo Salmerón joseamu...@gmail.com * URL : https://github.com/spheras/desktopfolder * License : GPL-3+ Section : x11 It builds those binary packages: desktopfolder - Organize your desktop with panels, notes and photos To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: https://mentors.debian.net/package/desktopfolder Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/d/desktopfolder/desktopfolder_1.1.0-2.dsc Notes: This is preemptive upload. I noticed that the experimental repo has uplifted to using vala 0.44. DesktopFolder does not build with this version of vala. Rather than wait for a FTBFS type bug report when unstable is uplifted with a newer toolchain, please can this upload be accepted. This includes one patch which I developed a few months ago and has been accepted & uploaded to the upstream repo (commit detailed in the patch header) I have built via sbuild on the current unstable repo i.e. using vala 0.42. The binary produced was tested ok. I then rebuilt the binary using experimental & vala 0.44 and retested the installation and capability. My sbuild is configured to run lintian -i -I --pedantic on the built source. One Information lintian remains - missing autopkgtest. I dont consider it necessary for such a test to be defined. If appropriate I would like to continue maintainership of this package (assuming that it is acceptable to Debian) in a similar manner as my current maintainership packages (dak fossfree...@ubuntu.com) Changes since the last upload: * Bugfix release - resolve FTBFS with vala 0.44 0001-Fix-compilation-issues-with-vala-0.44.patch Regards, David Mohammed
