Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: normal X-Debbugs-CC: muam...@debian.org, sergi...@debian.org
Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for a NMU of the 'pulseaudio-dlna' package. The package has been removed from testing because it's still using Python 2, and there seems to be no recent upstream activity. There is, however, a fork of the upstream repository with a port to Python 3, which I have packaged for this upload to make the package usable again. All of the details, including where my upstream tarball came from, are in d/changelog. The package is Lintian-clean, and I have verified that it works with a DLNA device of mine. The current maintainer hasn't made an upload for this package in three years and does not seem to have made any effort to solve the open RC bugs, so I think a NMU is warranted here. However, I've still added him in X-Debbugs-CC to be sure. I have created a Git repository for this package, but I think it would be best to maintain this repository in the Debian group on Salsa, so whoever sponsors this package: Please also create the repository that the Vcs-{Git,Browser} fields point to and give me "Maintainer" access to it, so that I can push to it. The package can be found on Salsa (temporarily, see above) and on Mentors: https://mentors.debian.net/package/pulseaudio-dlna https://salsa.debian.org/wolff-guest/pulseaudio-dlna Thanks for your help!
