I made a new interim change with the Ubuntu / PopOS / BeagleBone /
KaliLinux rules.
(some also apply to Debian proper)

Hi again,

Please review the current package. 0.9.49

https://mentors.debian.net/package/cruft-ng/

It's in a really good shape and can also be trivially backported to Bullseye.

Greetings

Hi,

I did another interim upload to untangle the CI bugs,
the DebCI job now succeeds.


PiuParts job is still flaky, sometimes working sometimes not.

To avoid to many non-migrating-to-testing uploads
an option would be to NMU plocate first,
it's a one-liner. (and yes I pinged maintainer already,
sadly there's no VCS to propose a MR)

Hi,

I implemented all the corrections suggested by various people and more.

I also got a lot of patches from Christian Göttsche which
makes this tool quite fast for the first time ever.

I think that dh-cruft is ready for it's first upload.

The changelog of 0.9.47 was huge (compared to all the previous years)
so I uploaded it as-is, with some fears about the DebCI integration.

...which worked but found one bug #1023336
which is actually #35042 from 1999 coming back again;
it is now definitively fixed.

So this will be 0.9.48.

Greetings,

Alexandre

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "cruft-ng".

This is a Debian native package.

 * Package name : cruft-ng
   Version  : 0.9.47
   Upstream contact : me
 * URL  : https://github.com/a-detiste/cruft-ng
 * License  : GPL+2

I have been maintaining since 2014 as a Debian Maintainer.

I recenlty found how to make it much more usefull
for some task at work; about 100 proprietary packages
were rebuilt with this new "dh-cruft" DebHelper plugin.

As a DM I don't have the right to publish a NEW package;
this why I need sponsor today.



Moreover, as it is the first time I have to write Perl
code in 15 years I welcome some peer review.
This is just temporary, I hope this will get merged
into DebHelper proper.


I plan to move the repository to Salsa with C.I.
as soon as I get my DD namespace;
or alternatively it could also be immediatly
maintained under some welcoming existing Salsa group.

Greetings,

Alexandre Detiste
