Hi mentors, All fixes are done and a new package is uploaded. Please sponsor it.
The respective dsc file can be found at: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/h/histring/histring_1.1.1-1.dsc Once again, here is the package information: >> Dear mentors, >> >> Please sponsor for my newly uploaded package "histring". >> >> It's a general purpose highlighting tool that works with arbitrary >> input text file (e.g. all sorts of log files), and highlight different >> keywords in different colours (e.g., warnings and errors are >> highlighted with different colours). You can use this single small tool >> to replace all kinds of special purpose log parsing tools, and it can >> do much more, like highlighting results from vcsdiff, etc. E.g., >> >> http://sfxpt.wordpress.com/2013/06/02/highlighting-strings-in-text- output-with-histring/ >> >> Once again, I am looking for a sponsor for my newly upgraded package >> "histring". It's *lintian clean*, and without any build problems. Ref >> http://mentors.debian.net/package/histring >> >> * Package name : histring >> Version : 1.1.1-1 >> * URL : https://github.com/suntong001/histring >> * License : GPL-2.0+ >> Section : utils >> >> It builds those binary packages: >> >> histring - highlight strings using ANSI terminal escape sequences >> ... Moreover, here are the issues that have been recently fixed: > Hi! I'm not a DD, so I can't sponsor your package, but here are some > things that I've noticed: > > * It may be a good idea to make releases as tarballs still, instead of > just making Debian releases, so that other distros can benefit as well. > > * As far as I can see, you can fix "deprecated-configure-filename". All > you would need to do is change the name of configure.in to configure.ac. > > * Unless you have a compelling reason, the priority of the package (in > d/control) should be "optional", not "extra". > > * This isn't important, but it would be nice if you put the histring > manpage outside of the Debian directory when you make your next upstream > release. This way, other distros and people who build from source will > also benefit from the manpage. > > * There are a few minor grammatical errors in histring --help: > "useage" should be "usage" > "your self" should be "yourself" "hilighting" should be "highlighting" > > Good luck getting your package into Debian! > > Riley Baird Please help!
