I've not been able to satisfy all packaging requirements, and gave up.

so I wish to close this issue, there is no candidate package any more.

good day here again

I have:
- accepted all debian patches from 0.0.17-1 into upstream 0.0.18,
- removed the warnings that were in the `debuild` report,
- uploaded a new 0.0.18-1, it is now free from warnings,

further:
- I built a new bauble-1.0.56-1, resolving issue 755185,
- bauble-1.0.56-1 still has `debuild` warnings I want to solve,
- bauble-1.0.56-1 depends on python-fibra.

best regards,
MF

btw, since my two adopted children `bauble` and `ghini` both depend on
`fibra`, and python is reaching end of life for them too, I'm afraid I
will port `fibra` to python3 anyway, that it is accepted into Debian or not.
I'm already reconstructing its history, and will publish it in github as
soon as I'm done.

I don't see any inconvenience with this what you suggest.
I can import the library (with, if necessary, its history) into a new
github project.
I already patched upstream so it can be loaded in python3.

The dates made me strongly suspect, but skimming the upstream source
confirms, this is very much not a Py3K-ready library. Are you
becoming de facto upstream for this and planning to update it to
support Python 3.x in preparation for 2.7 reaching end of life?

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I'm on my way to become the maintainer of a couple of packages for the
management of botanic collections, namely bauble and ghini.desktop.

both of them rely upon fibra, and fibra wasn't yet in Debian.

so I need fibra in two different packages, and it is also small enough so
that it's being a learning example for me of what difficulties to expect
when I'll face the larger packages.

Fibra itself is a mature product, it was developed between 2008-11 (0.0.6)
and 2009-8 (0.0.17), after that the upstream developer did not think of
renaming the stable version to 1.0.0.

It offers collaborative concurrency, and has been helpful in bauble,
avoiding us trouble with threading and real concurrency.

friendly regards,
Mario Frasca
