Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear mentors,

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

 * Package name     : libtcod
   Version          : 1.24.0+dfsg-2
   Upstream contact : Kyle Stewart <4b796c65@gmail.com>
 * URL              : https://github.com/libtcod/libtcod
 * License          : Zlib, GPL-3+ with Autoconf exception, Expat, BSD-3-
clause
 * Vcs              : https://salsa.debian.org/hyannataraj/libtcod
   Section          : libs

The source builds the following binary packages:

  libtcod1t64 - graphics and utility library for roguelike developers
  libtcod-dev - development files for the libtcod roguelike library

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

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

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

  dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/libt/libtcod/
libtcod_1.24.0+dfsg-2.dsc

Changes since the last upload:

 libtcod (1.24.0+dfsg-2) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Fix glibc 2.42 build. (Closes: #1115225);
   * Fix some lintian warnings.

Regards,

The files included in your upload are completely different from the -1
revision. This looks very fishy. Also, the hyannataraj/libtcod repo is
not publically accessible. Please keep the repo in the debian namespace.

Ah. I've missed the idea that I can and even should use
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/libtcod/
for package development. And debian/libtcod have been slightly changed by
Bastian Germann while importing from dhyannataraj/libtcod

I'e put everything in sync with debian/libtcod. Can we try again?

Can you please explain how you generate the orig tarball?
The right way to do it is just run `origtargz` befor you run any gbp
command because that prevents gbp from generating it on its own.

The first of origtargz's strategies (pristine-tar) would have succeeded
on libtcod.

Instead of libtcod_1.24.0+dfsg.orig.tar.xz which is already in the
archive you have uploaded libtcod_1.24.0+dfsg.orig.tar.gz which contains
different content.

I have generated a source pkg from git and have uploaded that.

That is the place where I did not figure out how to do it right. I just take
actual release archive from upstream's github.

Thank you, that's the step I've missed. I tried to create an upload using
`origtargz`.

Does it provide orig file you expected? If it does, thet I'll add `origtargz`
to my cheatsheet and will use it from now on.

(The upload is just a test, I will delete it as soon as you check it)
