Package: sosreport Severity: normal Dear mentors,
After being contacted indirectly, I would like to get sponsored for this package. I have an agreement from the previous maintainer for taking over maintenance of the package. I have already been working to package in Ubuntu, and currently in the process. This update is to keep inline with discussions upstream as well as the work that has been done in Ubuntu dev release. I have tested the package with rebuild and pbuilder and works as expected. I am one of the upstream maintainers so it makes sense to also maintain in Debian. I am looking for a sponsor for my package "sosreport": * Package name : sosreport Version : 4.7.2-1 Upstream contact : Jake Hunsaker <jacob.r.hunsa...@gmail.com> * URL : https://github.com/sosreport/sos * License : GPL-2+ * Vcs : https://salsa.debian.org/sosreport-team/sosreport.git Section : admin The source builds the following binary packages: sosreport - Set of tools to gather troubleshooting data from a system To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: https://mentors.debian.net/package/sosrport/ Alternatively, you can download the package with 'dget' using this command: dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/sosreport/sosreport_4.7.2-1.dsc Changes since the last upload: * New 4.7.2 upstream release. - Added tests and updates for py3.12 (Closes: #1075909) * For more details, full release notes are available here: - https://github.com/sosreport/sos/releases/tag/4.7.2 * d/control: - Add 'python3-packaging' as part of the runtime depends. - Add 'python3-packaging' as part of the build depends: Use packaging for version comparison instead of pkg_resources from setuptools. - Add 'python3-yaml' as part of the build depends: The new saltstack collect plugin now imports the yaml module, this is now required to build and run the sos package. - Add 'python3-boto3' to Recommends: A new feature for uploading to S3 was implemented and the boto3 module is used for this. Although not a hard requirement, but could be useful moving forward. - Add python3-nose and python3-coverage back for nosetests. - bump standards version to 4.7.0. - Maintainer change from Eric to Arif. - Add David as co-maintainer in Uploaders. * d/copyright: - Update copyright based on discussions upstream. Upstream contact is new maintainer. - All code is now GPL-2+. - Remove line for kernelrt.py, the copyright of the file is already in the header of the plugin. * d/rules: - Add override_install to copy the sos.conf in the right place for Debian. - Add nosetests originally that should work. This will be replaced by avocado eventually. This is useful to run to ensure that some simple set of runs in sos work. * d/tests: - Remove unnecessary debian tests and files. - Update simple.sh from upstream project and consistency with downstream. * Former patches now fixed upstream or resolved: - d/p/0004-unittest-assertEquals.patch - d/p/0002-debian-do-not-install-usr-config.patch - d/p/0003_man-sos-report.patch * Update patches: - d/p/0001-debian-change-tmp-dir-location.patch: Make it consistent with downstream. * Remaining patches: - d/p/0001-debian-change-tmp-dir-location.patch Regards, -- Arif Ali
