 Initial version (Closes: #1068200)

Summary:
Upstream blog post https://blog.linuxmint.com/?p=4660

"GNOME Online Accounts, aka “GOA”, is a project which allows users to
connect to their data in the cloud. This project was only designed for
GNOME though so it doesn’t provide any front-end. It only provides
libraries (namely libgoa and libgoa-backend).

Other than GNOME, many desktop environments integrated a front-end to
these libraries in their control center: Cinnamon, Budgie, Unity, etc.

This project is important because it doesn’t just connect a desktop to
the cloud, it’s used by many applications and libraries. Among other
things you might use it to connect the Calendar application, the
Thunderbird email program or the file browser to your online data.

With GNOME 46, libgoa/libgoa-backend 3.50 moved to GTK4. It can no
longer be used by GTK3 applications.

To solve this problem a new XApp called GNOME Online Account GTK was
created. As any XApp its goal is to work for everybody, in any desktop
environment and in any Linux distribution.

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "budgie-session":

 * Package name : budgie-session
   Version  : 0.9-1
   Upstream contact : Budgie Developers 
 * URL  : https://github.com/buddiesofbudgie/budgie-session

https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/b/budgie-session/budgie-session_0.9-1.dsc

More Information
budgie-session is based upon the v44 version of gnome-session package in Debian.
It inherits Debian's existing packaging.  The existing d/copyright has
been completely reworked since the existing gnome-session package is
based on an old debian template (I think) and the copyright owners was
not complete.  The new gnome-session for GNOME 46 due in the new year
(2024) includes changes that are incompatible with the current
iteration of budgie-desktop.  The effort to expend to make
budgie-desktop compatible with it is (from an upstream POV) to be
diverted with upcoming budgie-desktop changes.

budgie-session is part of budgie-desktop's restructuring from its
GNOME based roots to a more independent project structure.  In the
future budgie-session will evolve to support the new Wayland only
version of budgie-desktop.

Assuming this package is acceptable to Debian I (as Debian Maintainer)
will upload a revised budgie-desktop package that utilises
budgie-session to enable full end-user testing.

This sbuilds against unstable and is lintian free.

Background
I am the project lead of Ubuntu Budgie - an official flavour of
Ubuntu.  I maintain the budgie related packages in both Debian and
Ubuntu.

As part of Ubuntu Budgie our key customisation package is called
budgie-desktop-environment which is similarly named as other desktop
customisation packages.

This RFS brings to Debian the key-parts of Ubuntu Budgie to provide a
stylish one-shot customisation package; currently Debian budgie users
have to customise the vanilla upstream budgie-desktop package.

In keeping with Debian custom, this provides a minimal package
concentrating on the look and feel of budgie end-users expect
out-of-the-box.

 budgie-desktop-environment (0.1-1) unstable; urgency=medium

Background:
I am the Debian Maintainer for this package and have been since its
inception in 2016.

Upstream has just released v10.7 today.  In preparation for this I
have kept Debian up-to-date with
git master builds to allow further testing by Debian end-users to
allow for a much wider testing scope thus assuring for a stable
release.  This was done primarily due to the upcoming freeze dates.

The last update to debian was 4 weeks ago.  This release primarily
captures the last 4 weeks of upstream work mainly focussed on
providing an API for developers to add capability together with some
GUI refinements & polish.  No new end-user functionality was added.

The API changes have resulted in two additional binary packages hence
my request for sponsorship - to review the final release package and
sponsor before uploading to ftp-masters.

Bug#1005782: RFS: budgie-control-center/0.4-1 [ITP] -- utilities to configure the Budgie desktop

2022-02-14 Thread David Mohammed
Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "budgie-control-center":

 * Package name: budgie-control-center
   Version : 0.4-1
   Upstream Author : Budgie Desktop Developers 
 * URL : https://github.com/buddiesofbudgie/budgie-control-center
 * License : GPL-3+, GPL-2+ and LGPL-2.1+ and LGPL-2+ and Expat
 * Vcs : https://github.com/ubuntubudgie/budgie-control-center
   Section : misc

It builds those binary packages:

  budgie-control-center - utilities to configure the Budgie desktop
  budgie-control-center-dev - Development package for Budgie Settings
  budgie-control-center-data - configuration applets for Budgie - data files

To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:

  https://mentors.debian.net/package/budgie-control-center/

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

  dget -x 
https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/b/budgie-control-center/budgie-control-center_0.4-1.dsc

Background:
I am the DM for the budgie desktop and related packages  in Debian and
part of the upstream development team.

As part of the next version of budgie-desktop we have replaced our
dependency of gnome-control-center with our own budgie-control-center.

This package is focused on budgie whereas the current
gnome-control-center is focussed on gnome-shell.

This package is a fork of gnome-control-center at v41.  The Debian
package itself is derived from Debian's gnome-control-center.

The copyright file & its authors has been derived from the current
gnome-control-center package with the addition of our own authorship
plus the changes described next.

This package was previously sponsored but was rejected by ftp-master
with the request to add
the GPL-3+ files to debian/copyright.  This has now been done.

I've also taken the opportunity to spot check some of the existing
GPL2+ authors and update the date ranges as appropriate.

In addition have taken the opportunity to resolve some of the information and
pedantic issues found in the current gnome-control-center package.

In terms  of testing we have ensured that budgie-control-center can
coexist with gnome-control-center i.e. this allows users to use both
gnome-shell and budgie-desktop on the same installed machine.

I have tested this package on the current debian testing image +
debian unstable repos.
By installing the two built packages,  budgie-desktop (which is a
necessary dependency) with budgie-control-center was installed.
Budgie Control Center was confirmed to be working as expected.

I would like to continue providing the best experience of
budgie-desktop for Debian and this package is part of this continued
commitment.  Please can you consider sponsoring this package -
obviously in the future I would like to ensure that I can continue
providing timely uploads through supplementing my current DM package
rights with this new package.

Changes for the initial release:

 budgie-control-center (0.4-1) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Initial Release (Closes: #1003845)

Thanks Adam - much appreciated

I'll add a dependency on "budgie-desktop" in the very next upload to
ensure that budgie itself is installed if someone tries to install
this in isolation.

Bug#1003850: RFS: budgie-control-center/0.2-1 [ITP] -- utilities to configure the Budgie desktop

2022-01-16 Thread David Mohammed
Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "budgie-control-center":

 * Package name: budgie-control-center
   Version : 0.2-1
   Upstream Author : Budgie Desktop Developers 
 * URL : https://github.com/buddiesofbudgie/budgie-control-center
 * License : GPL-2+ and LGPL-2.1+ and LGPL-2+ and Expat
 * Vcs : https://github.com/ubuntubudgie/budgie-control-center
   Section : misc

It builds those binary packages:

  budgie-control-center - utilities to configure the Budgie desktop
  budgie-control-center-dev - Development package for Budgie Settings
  budgie-control-center-data - configuration applets for Budgie - data files

To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:

  https://mentors.debian.net/package/budgie-control-center/

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

  dget -x 
https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/b/budgie-control-center/budgie-control-center_0.2-1.dsc

Background:
I am the DM for the budgie desktop and related packages  in Debian and
part of the upstream development team.

As part of the next version of budgie-desktop we have replaced our
dependency of gnome-control-center with our own budgie-control-center.

This package is focused on budgie whereas the current
gnome-control-center is focussed on gnome-shell.

This package is a fork of gnome-control-center at v41.  The Debian
package itself is derived from Debian's gnome-control-center.

The copyright file & its authors is the same as the current
gnome-control-center package with the addition of our own authorship.

I have taken the opportunity to resolve some of the information and
pedantic issues founds in the current gnome-control-center package.

In terms  of testing we have ensured that budgie-control-center can
coexist with gnome-control-center i.e. this allows users to use both
gnome-shell and budgie-desktop on the same installed machine.

I would like to continue providing the best experience of
budgie-desktop for Debian and this package is part of this continued
commitment.  Please can you consider sponsoring this package -
obviously in the future I would like to ensure that I can continue
providing timely uploads through supplementing my current DM package
rights with this new package.

Changes for the initial release:

 budgie-control-center (0.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Initial Release (Closes: #1003845)

Bug#987794: RFS: budgie-screensaver/4.0-1 [ITP] -- Screensaver and screen lock for the Budgie Desktop

2021-04-29 Thread David Mohammed
Package: sponsorship-requests

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "budgie-screensaver":

 * Package name: budgie-screensaver

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

  dget -x 
https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/b/budgie-screensaver/budgie-screensaver_4.0-1.dsc

Notes:
I am the Debian Maintainer of budgie-desktop & budgie-extras (plus
several other packages).  These packages are currently in Testing & Stable.

Recently the Solus Project who are the upstream of budgie-desktop
released v10.5.3 of budgie-desktop.  This now forces a new
dependency for their project called budgie-screensaver which provides
a lock-screen support for the budgie-desktop.  Upstream has marked
this as
"stable"

Previously budgie-desktop used gnome-screensaver.  This project is no
longer maintained.  Key to this new release is support for GNOME 40 changes that
prevents Budgie and GNOME-Shell co-existing.  This is the key reason
upstream state for
using their fork of gnome-screensaver.

Implementation will be three fold:
1. upload of this package if acceptable to Debian Experimental and
2. once uploaded, upload budgie-desktop v10.5.3 to Experimental that
add budgie-screensaver
as a dependency.   I will handle this latter implementation myself
via my current maintainer rights.
3. Reupload budgie-desktop once GNOME 40 packages are uploaded to Experimental

I have spot checked various source files to ensure they have the licenses
stated in debian/copyright - this copyright file was generated via
cme update copyright and then tidied up manually.

I have sbuild this package against both unstable and
unstable+experimental and all information &
warning lintian issues have been resolved.

In addition to sponsoring this project - if appropriate I would like
to continue maintainership of this package
(assuming that it is acceptable to Debian) in a similar manner as my
current maintainership packages (dak fossfree...@ubuntu.com)

This upload to experimental has been requested to facilitate the

transition that is about to be undertaken (Serious: #907616)

Tested by pbuilder-dist on experimental; this has been tested on

check-all-the-things has been run on the source
lintian -i -I --pedantic run on the built changes files.

W: orig-tarball-missing-upstream-signature --> this is due to using
a git release tarball. A v10.5 signed tarball is expected soon by the
upstream project but date is yet to be set publically; I am using a
git release to
increase testing exposure in Ubuntu; since Debian is now about to
transition I'm more than happy for the Debian community to join the
testing effort.

May I request that this package be added to my debian maintainers list

timeliness of uploads is key especially as I am working with upstream
with development activities and the production of additional patches
as we
move towards budgie-desktop v10.5

  Changes since the last upload:

  * Release to experimental (Closes: #907616)
- base on ubuntu cosmic package; this includes a git release of

  Includes additional patches to compile for mutter 3.30 plus
  current work-in-progress stability patches
  * Packaging Changes
- budgie-core.lintian-overrides - revise explanation of the lintian
  false positive results with the objdump test to confirm the observations
- bump control Standards-Version; no additional changes required
- libraven0.symbols add two additional symbols for git release

Bug#856603: RFS: arc-theme/20170302-1

2017-03-02 Thread David Mohammed
Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

  Dear mentors,

  I am looking for a sponsor for my package "arc-theme"

 * Package name: arc-theme
   Version : 20170302-1
   Upstream Author : horst3180 
 * URL : https://github.com/horst3180/arc-theme
 * License : GPL-3+
   Section : misc

  It builds those binary packages:

arc-theme  - Flat theme with transparent elements

  To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:

  https://mentors.debian.net/package/arc-theme


  Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

dget -x 
https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/a/arc-theme/arc-theme_20170302-1.dsc

  Changes since the last upload:

   * New upstream release
- Cinnamon 3.2 fixes
- Fix frame borders with GTK+3.22.9
- Small bugfixes
  * Packaging Changes
- update copyright year from 2016 to 2016-2017

Notes:
  I see that sid contains GTK+3.22.9 whereas stretch (testing) is
currently carrying GTK+3.22.8

I presume that stretch will update to upstream's recommended
GTK+3.22.9 version shortly (Ubuntu 17.04 is similarly making this move
shortly) - as such, as soon as Debian Stretch does, arc-theme will
then be visually broken due to this issue:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779005

'After upgrading to GTK 3.22.9 frame border style should be applied to
frame.flat > border instead of frame > border.flat.' The Adwaita theme
was updated for these requirements too:

https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk%2B/commit/?id=0c20604932f

I can confirm that this release of arc-theme works with GTK+3.22.8 as
well as GTK+3.22.9
