Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for my package "libsvg-perl".
* Package name : libsvg-perl Version : 2.33-1 Upstream Author : Ronan Oger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://search.cpan.org/~ronan/SVG-2.33/ * License : GNU GPL, Artistic (same as Perl) Section : perl It builds this binary package: libsvg-perl - perl module to generate SVG images The package is lintian clean. The upload would fix this bug: 429387 Moreover, this bug is blocking the ITP for libsvg-graph-perl, #429163 The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/l/libsvg-perl - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free - dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/l/libsvg-perl/libsvg-perl_2.33-1.dsc Before asking for upload, I need some help on this package. The Makefile.PL present upstream generates some man pages, which lintian complains about. In particular, those manpages are generated from ISO-8859-1 files, while on my system I have UTF-8. Therefore I substituted the "missing characters" with the proper groff escapes (lintian suggested looking at 'man groff_char'). The problem is that the resulting man pages actually _show_ the escapes, not the resulting characters (i.e. show \[sc] instead of ยง). Is there anything I can do about this? Besides this, I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me. Kind regards David Paleino -- . ''`.
