Thank you for taking a look at the package. Yes it makes sense that it should be within this group, but this group is for DD's. As you are aware that I am a Debian Contributor, and I cloned the repo based on recommendation https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1057378 I have other ITA's in progress so I am now confused how to move forward. >If you really want to adopt the >package, you have to close the ITA bug with the changelog in one of the >next uploads, which should then target unstable. Yes I am interested in adopting this package. My understanding, I need to do QA upload now and later once I get access to the repository I do upload with closing the ITA. > But before that, a >transition has to be started with the Release Team.

There has been a SOVERSION update to this package before without the need of experimental upload. This is a version bump only with the exception that sqlcipher updated its build system to be in sync with sqlite. The need of SOVERSION update will let me backport this library to trixie if needed. There is a discussion of choosing the soversion on upstream by DD's on https://github.com/sqlcipher/sqlcipher/issues/488 > There is still a lintian-overrides file which only has comments now. > Either you do not ship it or you have to change something else. Yes this needs to be removed.
