Hi Nicholas, I just uploaded persist-el. Thank you and sorry for the delay. This was my first sponsorship and I also had to setup a new laptop. I'm just waiting for the confirmation mail for the upload.
There are a few nitpicks and I'd be grateful if you could track them, e.g. in bugs.d.o after the package enters the archive: - It's a pity that we can not include the info file due to the license. Could you ask upstream to consider another license? - As long as the doc is not included, I think you don't need to build depend on texinfo. - If upstream also uses Git, I prefer to track upstreams master branch as upstream branch in the packaging repo. You could still merge their branch in your existing repo or restart the repo? - Lintian also had two nitpicks, see below. I'm guilty of the "wrong" section myself for elpa-editorconfig. What is the teams stand on this? Cheers, Thomas I: persist-el source: public-upstream-key-not-minimal upstream/signing-key.asc has 1 extra signature(s) for keyid 066DAFCB81E42C40 N: N: The package contains a public upstream signing key with extra N: signatures.
