--- Begin Message ---Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: normal Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for Newlib: * Package name : newlib Version : 3.3.0-1.1 Upstream Author : Red Hat and others * URL : https://sourceware.org/newlib/ * License : various * Vcs : https://salsa.debian.org/debian/newlib Section : devel It builds those binary packages: newlib-source - C library and math library for embedded systems (source) libnewlib-arm-none-eabi - C library and math library compiled for bare metal using Cortex A/R/M libnewlib-doc - C library and math library intended for use on embedded systems (doc) libnewlib-dev - C library and math library intended for use on embedded systems To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: https://mentors.debian.net/package/newlib/ Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/n/newlib/newlib_3.3.0-1.1.dsc Changes since the last upload: newlib (3.3.0-1.1) unstable; urgency=medium . * Non-maintainer upload. * Add newlib-source binary package to aid building for new targets. (Closes: #912271) This change wouldn't normally be appropriate for an NMU, but the maintainer, Agustin Henze, hasn't been responsive to my attempts for contact, and is also on the LowThresholdNmu list and keeps the package in the Debian group on Salsa for collaborative maintenance: https://wiki.debian.org/LowThresholdNmu I haven't encountered the maintainer previously, but believe in good faith that these changes would be welcome and that the LowThresholdNmu criterion are met by addressing a bug with important severity. My interest in this bug, to introduce a newlib-source binary package, is to unblock my progress on gcc-sh-elf, which is otherwise almost ready. That package will bootstrap a toolchain by building GCC and Newlib simultaneously in a combined build tree, which in my opinion is best practice for embedded toolchains going forward. The changelog is set to unstable in anticipation that I won't manage to clear NEW before Bullseye is released. If anyone would be so kind to sponsor me sooner, I could change that to experimental.signature.asc

Uploaded to DELAYED/15. Please send a nmudiff to newlibs BTS if not done already. -- Cheers, tobi
