Anton,

Thanks for taking the time to update that package! Upstream has released
another RC (which should be identical to 3.0 with the exception of
translation updates). Additionally, we've found a patch from upstream
mimalloc that should fix the armel build (I hope), and which I have
included in the debian package. I have updated to that upstream release,
and updated the package substantially (removed some bundled fonts and
js, etc) and pushed to my salsa repo: I wasn't sure if you wanted me to
push to the main team repo, especially since the existing version is
"3.0.rc1+repack1" which Lintian warns me is not less than 3.0 - I did my
import as "3.0~rc2+repack1" accordingly.

https://salsa.debian.org/rpavlik/solvespace

When you have a chance, I'd appreciate a review and sponsoring. I've
done basic testing of the package myself, especially the parts that are
affected by patches/repack, and it seems to work well to me.

Thanks!

Ryan
