Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "tinymux":

 * Package name     : tinymux
   Version          : 2.12.0.10-2
   Upstream contact : Stephen Dennis <brazilofmux@gmail.com>
 * URL              : https://www.tinymux.org/
 * License          : BSD-3-clause, Artistic-1.0 and TinyMUD-revised
 * Vcs              : https://github.com/brazilofmux/tinymux
   Section          : games

The source builds the following binary packages:

  tinymux - text-based multi-user virtual world server

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

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

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

  dget -x
https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/tinymux/tinymux_2.12.0.10-2.dsc

Changes since the last upload:

 tinymux (2.12.0.10-2) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Add explicit Build-Depends on libcrypt-dev.
     This package uses crypt functionality via crypt.h and -lcrypt,
     but previously relied on a transitive dependency through libc6-dev.
     That dependency is being dropped from the build-essential set in the
     forky cycle. This change ensures continued successful builds.
     (Closes: #1107061)
   * Added debian/README.source to document embedded PCRE3 copy in 2.12
series.
   * Bumped Standards-Version to 4.7.2. No changes needed.
   * Switched to debhelper-compat 13.
   * Removed unintended executable permissions on static game data files
     under /usr/share/tinymux/game. These files are not scripts or binaries.

Regards,

Hi Stephen,

The package builds successfully, but there are a few errors and warnings from
Lintian that need to be dealt with. At least one of them (embedded-library
pcre2) can be overridden since you have your reasoning in debian/README.source.

You can find more info about the Lintian output here:
https://debusine.debian.net/debian/developers/work-request/127816/
Or the whole build:
https://debusine.debian.net/debian/developers/work-request/127799/

Lintian output is also included below.
