Dear mentors and pkg-fgfs-crew maintainers,
I am looking for a sponsor for the package "fgrun" into Unstable, perhaps into
DELAYED/7 or DELAYED/10.
* Package name : fgrun
Version : 2016.4.0-0.1
Upstream Author : Frederic Bouvier <fredfgfs01 at free.fr>
* URL : https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/fgrun/
* License : GPL-2+
Section : games
It builds those binary packages:
fgrun - graphical frontend for running FlightGear
To access further information about this package, please visit the following
URL:
https://mentors.debian.net/package/fgrun
Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:
dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/f/fgrun/
fgrun_2016.4.0-0.1.dsc
Alternatively, one can view and download detailed package information on deb-
o-matic-amd64:
dget -x http://debomatic-amd64.debian.net/distribution#unstable/fgrun/
2016.4.0-0.1/
Changes since the last upload:
fgrun (2016.4.0-0.1) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Non-maintainer upload.
* New upstream release. (Closes: #839357)
- Drop patches applied upstream.
- Refresh patches.
* Switch upstream to SourceForge.
- Update corresponding debian/watch file. (Closes: #851845)
* Bump debhelper compat version to v10.
* Apply "wrap-and-sort -abst".
* Update Homepage information on SourceForge.
Detailed explanations:
* This package has a longstanding unfixed RC bug (FTBFS) and fell out of
Stretch release. With absolutely zero reverse dependency and migration
blocking, I believe fgrun should be able to enter unstable even though we are
in freeze now (because it wouldn't affect other packages or Stretch release at
all).
* A stripped src debdiff is attached here to ease your review. The stripped
part are translation PO file's updates.
* For new d/watch file: I had a hard time making decisions and finally chose the
sf.net redirector provided by qa.d.o, which points to flightgear *main* project
tarballs. Fgrun is now a subproject of flightgear and I really couldn't find a
better page to parse releases or even git tags. [1] Any suggestion would be
welcome.
[1] This should be the correct page but way too hard to write d/watch file:
https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/fgrun/ref/next/tags/

Sincerely,
Boyuan Yang
