Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal


Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "dvdisaster"

 * Package name    : dvdisaster
   Version         : 0.79.5-1~exp1
   Upstream Author : Carsten Gnörlich <carsten at dvdisaster.org>
 * URL             : http://dvdisaster.net/
 * License         : GPL-3
   Section         : otherosfs

It builds those binary packages:

     dvdisaster - data loss/scratch/aging protection for CD/DVD media
 dvdisaster-doc - data loss/scratch/aging protection for CD/DVD media (documentation)

To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL:

  https://mentors.debian.net/package/dvdisaster

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

  dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/d/dvdisaster/dvdisaster_0.79.5-1~exp1.dsc

The changes I have made have also been pushed into the _experimental
branch of https://github.com/e7appew/pkg-dvdisaster.git.

Changes since the last upload:

  dvdisaster (0.79.5-1~exp1) experimental; urgency=medium

    * Team upload.
    * New upstream version [0.79.5].
    * Update uscan rules.
    * Drop debian/dvdisaster.menu file in favour of desktop file.
    * Convert copyright file into proper DEP5 format and update.
    * Fix installation of desktop file and icon images.
    * Tidy up installation of doc files.
    * Drop no longer required debian/pixmaps/dvdisaster.xpm.
    * Add debian/dvdisaster-doc.doc-base file.
    * Add link to html docs in dvdisaster-doc package.
    * Fix clean up rules.
    * Update docs to install.
    * Separate binary-arch and binary-indep rules.
    * Fix all compilations warnings we can fix and silence the ones we can't.
    * Package upstream manual.pdf for the time being, since we can't
      build it reproducibly.
    * debian/control:
      + Update to Standards Version 3.9.8.
      + Update VCS details.
      + Remove obsolete DM-Upload-Alllowed control field.
      + Perform wrap and sort.
      + Mark dvdisaster-doc as a multi-arch foreign package.
    * debian/rules:
      + Build with all hardening flags set.
      + Link required libraries as needed.
      + Don't build with source path embedded as this makes unreproducible
        builds.
    * debian/patches/*:
      + Refresh patches.
      + Fix patch headers to work with git-buildpackage, retaining as
        much meta info as possible.
      + Fix GNU Make detection.
      + Use non-size-specific icon and add keywords to desktop file.
      + Fix spelling: upto -> up to
      + Fix missing language fields in PO files.
      + Use the Debian changelog details to derive a build number and date,
        so that we can make reproducible binaries.
      + Update help dialog to show GPL-3 license and new Debian package
        tracker.
      + Fix generated man pages. The generated man pages incorrectly direct
        users to the directory of the old HTML documentation, which is no
        longer available.
      + Fix display of manual.pdf. The PDF file is automatically compressed
        by Debhelper, so we need to account for this.
      + Update copyright notice in about dialog.
      + Allow ShowTextFile() to work with absolute path names.
      + Fix display of changelog, credits and to-do files.
      + Resurrect old code to support opening URLs in a browser.
