Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal
Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 2.0.0-1 of my package
"formiko".
* Package name : formiko
Version : 2.0.0-1
Upstream Author : Ondřej Tůma <[email protected]>
* URL : https://formiko.zeropage.cz
* License : BSD-3-Clause and MIT
Vcs : https://github.com/ondratu/formiko-debian.git
Section : editors
It builds those binary packages:
formiko - reStructuredText and MarkDown editor and live previewer
To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:
https://mentors.debian.net/package/formiko/
Alternatively, you can download the package with dget using this
command:
dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/f/formiko/formiko_2.0.
0-1.dsc
Changes since the last upload:
* New upstream release (2.0.0), a major rewrite ported to GTK4,
libadwaita and GtkSourceView 5 (Closes: #1079410):
- Replace WebKit2GTK 4.1 with WebKit 6.0 (GTK4)
- Replace gtkspell3 spell checking with libspelling
- Drop recommonmark in favour of built-in Markdown handling
- Add jsonpath-ng runtime dependency
- Add optional neovim (vte), spelling and extra-writers integration
* debian/control:
- Bump debhelper-compat to 14, Standards-Version to 4.7.4
- Add Rules-Requires-Root: no
- Add dh-sequence-python3, dh-sequence-single-binary and
python3-pytest to Build-Depends, required with compat 14
- Add python3-gi, gir1.2-adw-1, gir1.2-gtksource-5 and
gir1.2-webkit-6.0 to Build-Depends: the upstream pytest suite
imports them at collection time, which a clean sbuild chroot
caught but an already-populated dev machine did not
- Refresh Build-Depends/Depends/Recommends/Suggests for the GTK4
rewrite (gir1.2-gtk-4.0, gir1.2-adw-1, gir1.2-gtksource-5,
gir1.2-webkit-6.0, python3-jsonpath-ng, gir1.2-spelling-1,
gir1.2-vte-3.91, python3-m2r2, python3-pygments, python3-pynvim)
- Drop the X-Python3-Version field (lintian
drop-python-version-declaration)
* debian/rules: simplify to compat 14 style (execute_after_dh_install),
run the upstream pytest suite during build (dh_auto_test)
* debian/copyright: refresh copyright years, add Upstream-Contact
* debian/patches:
- Drop webkit4.1.patch, obsoleted by the upstream rewrite of
formiko/renderer.py
- Add appstream-id-consistency.patch to align the desktop entry
and metainfo file basenames with the AppStream component id
(cz.zeropage.Formiko), fixing appstream-metadata-validation-failed
Build and test status:
Verified with a clean sbuild chroot (mmdebstrap + sbuild
--chroot-mode=unshare, dist=unstable): build succeeds, upstream
pytest suite passes (224 passed, 1 skipped), lintian clean (worst
tag: warn, only expected missing-upstream-signature notices).
Regards,
Ondřej Tůma

Hello,

N: If you are repackaging your source tarballs for Debian Free Software
N: Guidelines compliance reasons, ensure that your package version includes
N: dfsg or similar.
N:
N: Sometimes, an upstream signature must be added for an orig.tar.gz that is
N: already present in the archive. Please include the upstream sources again
N: with dpkg-genchanges -sa while the signature is also present. Your upload

N:
N: pybuild now supports building with PEP-517 standard interfaces natively.
N: These sources could be built using pybuild's generic pyproject plugin and
N: the named build backend.
N:
N: Please declare both named prerequisites in Build-Depends. You will need
N: both the generic pybuild-plugin-pyproject as well as the specific one to
N: the named backend. It is usually python3-${backend}.
N:
N: No changes are required if you are using pybuild's dedicated flit plugin,
N: although that plugin will eventually be deprecated in favor of the generic
N: pyproject plugin mentioned above.

N: an upstream OpenPGP signature. This signature is automatically downloaded
N: and verified against a keyring stored in debian/upstream/signing-key.asc
N:
N: Of course, not all upstreams provide such signatures but you could request
