I am not a devian developer, so I can not sponser your upload, however here are some comments: debian/control: XSBC-original maintainer is a field only used by ubuntu, remove it section: I would use 'Electronics'
debian/copyright: your last lines read: License: GPL-2 The Debian packaging is hereby placed in the GPL-2 (no rights reserved). I'm not a lawyer, but I would either put your debian packaging under the GPL-2 or release it in the public domain (no rights reserved). Now they conflict. build system: consider using debhelper 7 instead of cdbs, as this is what most new packages use. The minimal rule should work fine /usr/share/doc/debhelper/examples/rules.tiny src/Makefile.am consider adding --as-needed to your link flag when using gtk (send this upstream) 17: emu8051_LDADD = $(GTK_LIBS) -Wl,--as-needed Lastly, my most important comment: I recommend you to join the pkg-electronics team, and to request sponsorship there: http://wiki.debian.org/PkgElectronics Johan On Thu, Jun 10, 2010 at 6:47 PM, Bhavani Shankar R <[email protected]> wrote: > Dear mentors, > > I am looking for a sponsor for my package "emu8051". > > * Package name : emu8051 > Version : 1.1.0-1 > Upstream Authors : Hugo Villeneuve <[email protected]>, > Jonathan St-André <[email protected]> > * URL : http://www.hugovil.com/en/emu8051/index.html > * License : GPL-2 > Section : x11 > > It builds these binary packages: > emu8051 - Emulator and simulator for 8051 microcontrollers > > The upload would fix these bugs: 585446 > > My motivation for maintaining this package is: I m an electrical engineer by > profession and I ve experience working on Intel 8051 and ARM > Microcontrollers and since the usage of the program is simple(It loads Hex > files and it executes the program continuously till the desired output is > got) and since this is my specific area of interest I would like to maintain > this package in debian. > > The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: > - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/e/emu8051 > - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main > contrib non-free > - dget > http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/e/emu8051/emu8051_1.1.0-1.dsc > > I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me. > > Regards > > -- > Bhavani Shankar.R > https://launchpad.net/~bhavi, a proud ubuntu community member. > What matters in life is application of mind!, > It makes great sense to have some common sense..! > > -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
