Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

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

 * Package name     : libstrato
   Version          : 1.0.18
   Upstream contact : Awe Morris <[email protected]>
 * URL              : https://github.com/awemorris/StratoHAL
 * License          : zlib
 * Vcs              : https://salsa.debian.org/awemorris/libstrato/
   Section          : devel

The source builds the following binary packages:

  libstrato1 - core library for StratoHAL
  libstratopack1 - package creation library for StratoHAL
  libstrato-dev -  development headers for StratoHAL

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

  https://mentors.debian.net/package/libstrato/

Alternatively, you can download the package with 'dget' using this command:

  dget -x 
https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/l/libstrato/libstrato_1.0.18-1.dsc

Changes since the last upload:

 - Initial Upload (Closes: #1135756)

[What led up to the situation?]

During the packaging review of "suika3" (ITP #1133308) on mentors.debian.net,
reviewers suggested that the embedded HAL should be split into an independent
source package instead of being bundled within the game engine.

[What exactly did you do that was effective?]

I separated StratoHAL from the suika3 source package and prepared it as an
independent Debian package with its own shared library, development package,
symbols tracking, autopkgtest integration, and standalone build system
support.

I also cleaned up the packaging to follow Debian policy recommendations,
including multiarch-compatible library packaging, lintian fixes, and proper
dependency metadata.

[What was the outcome of this action?]

The separation made the HAL reusable by other applications independently of
suika3.

[What outcome did you expect instead?]

I initially expected StratoHAL to remain an internal component of suika3.
However, the review process clarified that packaging it separately would
better align with Debian policy and improve reusability for the wider
ecosystem.

Regards,

Hello,

Please address these Lintian flags for next time:

N:   If no level is selected debhelper defaults to level 1, which is
N:   deprecated.

This will go into the Debian NEW queue, where it will either be accepted or 
rejected. I think your package has a great chance of being accepted.

Feel free to CC me if you need a followup RFS, if I'm available I can look.

Best regards,
