currently
-shipped with. (closes: bug#853787)

Sorry for nitpicking, but this one is wronger than the old one.  Before,
it was an obvious brain fart but the meaning should be clear to a reader.
The new wording effectively says just "fixed a bug".

What about:

  * Fix an incompatibility with current versions of gcl. (Closes: #853787)

It needed me *hours* to find the mistake.  But I've just uploaded a
package with a corrected ChangeLog to mentors. Let's hope it appears
there in the next few minutes.

Thanks a lot,
and kind regards,

   Gunter.

So you _add_ a bug?

Could you please reword this entry?

2017-07-23 Thread Gunter Königsmann 
Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "wxmaxima"

 * Package name: wxmaxima
   Version : 16.12.2-2
   Upstream Author : Andrej Vodopivec
 * URL : http://andrejv.github.io/wxmaxima/
 * License : GPL
   Section : math

It builds those binary packages:

wxmaxima   - GUI for the computer algebra system Maxima

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

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


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

dget -x
https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/w/wxmaxima/wxmaxima_16.12.2-2.dsc


Changes since the last upload:

wxMaxima was broken by a change in gcl that hindered the program from
starting up. This upload adds a patch that makes the program start again.


Regards,
   Gunter Königsmann
