Thanks, I made the upload.

Just as a reminder, you are left with two tasks:
- asking the ftpmasters to update the override file to reflect your
change in the section of ofx
- forwarding your patch upstream, and updating the DEP-3 fields
accordingly

I have pushed my commits on the git repository of the team.
The package seems ready to the upload to unstable.

Thanks.

Please push it to the git repository in the pkg-gnucash team. I have
accepted your request to join the project (Dmitry, the gnucash
maintainer, is in CC).

Sorry, I mistakenly thought that you wanted to upload 0.9.11 for
stretch.

Yes, your plan sounds good. Please go ahead, and tell me when the upload
to unstable is ready.

:-) Do you need that I push the package on mentors.debian.net or the
git repository is enough for you?

My plan was a small refresh of this package for Strech i.e. no
packaging of the new version.
>From the updated package (in my bitbucket repository) maybe, as you
suggested me, I can also switch to compat 10 and dbgsym.
Then, I will update the upstream version and upload the package to experimental.

Do you agree with that?

I will join the pkg-gnucash project to be able to push my changes to
the Alioth repository.

Best regards,
Dylan

Thanks, this is good news.

I am willing to be your sponsor.

I had a very quick look at your current packaging work. My
understanding is that in version 0.9.11 there was a SOVERSION bump
(libofx6->7), that is currently not reflected in the shared library
package name. If this is indeed the case, that also means that the
package cannot be uploaded to unstable until stretch is released,
because of the freeze (but you can still upload it to experimental in
the meantime).

Other things that could be done to improve the package include:
- dropping libofx6-dbg, and relying instead on automatic debug packages
- bumping debhelper compat level to 10 (in that case, my understanding
is that you need to add the --no-parallel option to dh, since
ofxdump/Makefile is not parallel safe; you could also drop the dh-
autoreconf build-dependency).

Best,
