Bug#913363: RFS: desktopfolder/1.0.10-1 [ITP]
Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: wishlist Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for my package "desktopfolder" * Package name: desktopfolder Version : 1.0.10-1 Upstream Author : José Amuedo Salmerón joseamu...@gmail.com * URL : https://github.com/spheras/desktopfolder * License : GPL-3+ Section : x11 It builds those binary packages: desktopfolder - Organize your desktop with panels, notes and photos To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: https://mentors.debian.net/package/desktopfolder Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/d/desktopfolder/desktopfolder_1.0.10-1.dsc More information about desktopfolder can be obtained from https://github.com/spheras/desktopfolder/blob/master/README.md Notes: I am the project lead of a Debian derivative called Ubuntu Budgie. I already maintain many Debian packages via my current Debian Maintainers rights. The reason for the request for this ITP is due to the current Nautilus version in Debian. We recognise that many budgie-desktop users expect a more traditional desktop experience that includes the ability to place various files and folders onto the desktop. Budgie-Desktop had integrated with Nautilus to provide that ability in the past. But due to Nautilus 3.30 now in Buster, nautilus has removed the desktop icons & folders support, Debian budgie users have had to use strange workarounds such as running two File Managers - Nautilus and Nemo where Nemo provides the desktop icons support. This ITP provides an excellent alternative - a low memory usage dedicated application that provides desktop icons & folders. The application has been part of the ElementaryOS appcenter and Elementary Pantheon. I have been working with the maintainer to make this application compatible with budgie-desktop. As a project team Ubuntu Budgie have a direct interest in helping support this application. We now help the desktopfolder project to provide translations for the project and we will be working with the maintainer to provide additional capabilities in the future. In terms of packaging I have worked with the maintainer to ensure lintian issues such as code typos, mismatched copyright statements and missing copyright statements on source files. The maintainer has also agreed to sign his tarballs which the package makes use of to provide trust. I have run check-all-the-things and helped resolve source matters in consultation with the maintainer. I have run lintian -i -I --pedantic on the built source. One Information lintian remains - missing autopkgtest. I dont consider it necessary for such a test to be defined. I have built the debian/copyright via "cme update dpkg-copyright" and manually checked that it has built the copyright file correctly. The debian package contains one specific patch to revert two ElementaryOS AppCenter specifics that doesn't make sense in the context of Debian budgie-desktop. This is explained in the dep3 header for the patch. I have discussed this patch with the maintainer and he is content with the approach. 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 packages (dak fossfree...@ubuntu.com) Changes since the last upload: * Initial Release (Closes: #913356) Regards, David Mohammed
