I checked UPSTREAM TARBALL CREATION OPTIONS in gbp-buildpackage(1) for an option to set the prefix that could be used in gbp.conf, but could not find anything. The default might have been chosen to match GitHub.

I don't know if that's already packaged in Debian, but it might make the FTP-masters unhappy, especially since it's not mentioned in debian/copyright. So the latter should be fixed, at the very least, and we might consider packaging that library separately... ... that said, it looks like many other packages do ship a copy of that library, maybe it's the way it's designed to be shipped? https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=nanosvg=1 wxwidgets just vendors it, but does mention it in the debian/copyright, however: https://sources.debian.org/src/wxwidgets3.2/3.2.1%2Bdfsg-1/debian/copyright/#L28 So there's that: at least add that to the debian/copyright. Also, I've had trouble reproducing the upstream tarball. I tried to build the package with git-buildpackage: gbp buildpackage --git-debian-branch=main --git-upstream-tag=1.8.2 ... but that gives me a different tarball than upstream. git-buildpackage generates a tarball with foot-1.8.2/ as a top directory, while upstream has foot/. I'm not sure how to resolve this, but you should at least provide the upstream tarball ... somewhere so that it can be uploaded safely. You might want to configure git-buildpackage or some other git-building tool in the package as well, since it seems that (git) is what you rely on to build this. I can probably just live with the upstream tarball for now, but that might be something you want to consider documenting in debian/README.source or something. Otherwise this is almost ready to go, as far as I'm concerned, and I'll be happy to sponsor this once it has a proper debian/copyright.

No! Please go ahead!

And for what it's worth, I tested the latest package from salsa, as per: commit 8ae19155129c7e7bf20246a105702c74a148ff03 (HEAD -> main, origin/main, origin/HEAD) Author: Peter Colberg Date: Sat Nov 12 17:53:29 2022 -0500 Update changelog ... and it works well. I have only reviewed the debian/ directory, not upstream's code, but I can confirm the code in the sals repo matches the upstream, as far as git is concerned. That thing is fast and beautiful. :) a. -- Freedom is being able to make decisions that affect mainly you. Power is being able to make decisions that affect others more than you.

Dear Debian mentors, Apologies for the confusion: This package is still in need of sponsorship since I have not heard back from the Sway team.

Dear Sway team, Would anyone be willing to sponsor the initial upload of fuzzel? I am a Debian Maintainer and would maintain the package myself thereafter.

Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: wishlist Dear mentors, I am looking for an initial sponsor for the package "fuzzel". I am currently a Debian Maintainer and would also like to seek upload sponsorship so I may maintain the package myself once accepted. * Package name: fuzzel Version : 1.5.1-1 Upstream Author : Daniel Eklöf * URL : https://codeberg.org/dnkl/fuzzel * License : Expat * Vcs : https://salsa.debian.org/swaywm-team/fuzzel Section : x11 Fuzzel is a Wayland-native application launcher, similar to rofi's drun mode. [ITP] https://bugs.debian.org/982140 It builds these binary packages: fuzzel - Application launcher for wlroots based Wayland compositors Fuzzel fills a gap in the Debian swaywm ecosystem as a Wayland equivalent for rofi in terms of ease of use, robustness, and simplicity.
