Dear Debian Science Team,
I am currently working on adapting the Palabos package, and looking for
sponsors to upload deb version 2.3.0-1.
I have revamped the package by updating it to the latest upstream release
(2.3.0). Could someone kindly upload the package for me? I will attend
debconf25. If it's easier for you to work on this together in person, maybe
we can do this together before/during/after debconf25 Debian Science BoF[1].
Here is some information regarding the packaging work:
- ITA bug report:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=944878
- My packaging work on Salsa for Palabos 2.3.0 using the gbp workflow:
https://salsa.debian.org/tai271828/palabos
- The package has been built locally using sbuild, and I have verified
that the binary (development library) can be used to compile and run the
Palabos tutorials.
A bit about myself, for sponsorship reference:
- I am a Debian Maintainer for several other packages and have some
experience with Debian packaging. My DDPO page:
https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=e%40tai271828.me
- Palabos is the first package I am contributing to within the Debian
Science team.
