The auto-update functionality is for some reason systemd only, despite not actually using any systemd features. This makes it broken on any other init/rc system for no gain. Could you please convert the .service/.timer to a init script and/or cron job? It's no regression from the previous version, though -- and small incremental updates are so much easier to review, thus I uploaded as-is.

Re: no response Fwd: Bug#905080: O: as31 - Intel 8031/8051 assembler
Please send this to the debian-mentors list instead of exclusively to me. I did not mean to imply that I personally would be offering mentorship or sponsorship, and in any case, my abilities are limited since I am not a DD.

I think that the first thing to do for an issue is to classify it. > Now I've no idea how important it is to solve this issue. In addition to the license issue, I see a few minor things listed on the tracker page https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/as31, including a warning that the VCS repository is out of date, a lintian warning about a deprecated debhelper version, a build log warning about hardening flags, and a note that the standards version is out of date. I don't know how easy some of those will be to fix, but you should try to fix the ones that you can. The license is probably not that big of an issue, since I think any version of the BSD license would be free, but you could try to contact upstream to see if they will clarify the license. > I've just been through the painful process of getting a package in a > formally acceptable state, just to find out that there is no one willing > to sponsor.

Yes, you can ask the orphaner if he is willing to sponsor your package, but he may decline or not respond for many reasons, including lack of available time. If he won't, you should file a sponsorship bug as described at https://mentors.debian.net/sponsors. Though note that since Debian is in a freeze, your package will probably not be uploaded to unstable until Debian Buster is released, possibly several months from now. I'm sorry that you were not able to find a sponsor for your previous package. I haven't had too much trouble finding sponsors before, so my only advice is to try again. > If I'd rid the package of some technical defect and it wouldn't be accepted, > that would not > mean a great deal to me, because the effort is not really wasted, as long as > I publish it somewhere.

Song Submission - "Lonely"
I wanted to submit my song "Lonely". The response I've gotten thus far has been so absolutely humbling. I can't even believe it. I've heard from several people who were ready to take their lives that somehow, this song came on, and gave them strength to keep moving forward. Absolutely blows my mind. Makes me feel like there's something larger at work. Also, me and my brother have a combined 110K instagram followers so we'll be able to send traffic your way. It be mutually beneficial. If not, I'll still continue to support you and your channel. Keep doing what you're doing.

I've added a depencency on init-system-helpers (>= 1.50) naturally but the warning remains. Since ${misc:Pre-Depends} already includes init-system-helpers (>= 1.54~) I added lintian overrides. It's a bit dirty though, and the line number makes it a moving target. I'll fix the line numbers in the lintian overrides but if you know how to fix this in a better way I'm all ears. > Oh, and extremely minor notice: in `debian/control' you align fields > with tabs.
