Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: normal Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for my package "libio-pty-perl". This is an NMU. On Mentors, you will find a source upload. The binary upload builds with sbuild in unstable. It is Lintian-clean. Besides closing a wishlist bug for the new upstream version, this also brings the package up to modern standards, including source format 3.0, dh in rules, DEP-5 copyright, debhelper-compat (=12), watch file, hardening and some more. It also fixes a C compiler warning (for XS). There are two noteworthy items: First, I did not transfer the package to the Perl team, where it probably belongs. I did not contact the maintainer of record before packaging, but his last upload was in 2010. The most recent upload was from a Perl team member in 2015. Second, I used GitHub as the upstream source for copyright and watch file purposes. The homepage I set to CPAN. * Package name : libio-pty-perl Version : 1:1.12-0.1 Upstream Author : Todd Rinaldo <to...@cpan.org> * URL : https://metacpan.org/pod/IO::Tty * License : Artistic * Vcs : None Section : perl It builds those binary packages: libio-pty-perl - Perl module for pseudo tty IO To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: https://mentors.debian.net/package/libio-pty-perl Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/libi/libio-pty-perl/libio-pty-perl_1.12-0.1.dsc Changes since the last upload: * Non-maintainer upload. * New upstream version.
