Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "linmon".

* Package name    : linmon
  Version         : 0.1.3-1
  Upstream Contact: ailuntz <ailuntz@icloud.com>
* URL             : https://github.com/ailuntz/linmon
* License         : MIT
  Section         : utils

The source package has been uploaded to mentors.debian.net.

The packaging repository is:
https://github.com/ailuntz/linmon

The package builds cleanly in Debian sid with lintian clean output.

Thanks for your time.

Hi,

It's better to host the debianized version of this package on
salsa.debian.org rather than including the debian/ folder in the
upstream source.

Doing so will let your potential sponsors easily make changes to the
packaging before uploading if any.

Hello,

When trying to build your package, I get the following:

$ uscan --download-current-version
Newest version of linmon on remote site is 0.1.3, specified download version is 0.1.3
Successfully symlinked ../linmon-0.1.3.tar.gz to ../linmon_0.1.3.orig.tar.gz.
$ <my irrelevant build command>

dpkg-source: hint: you can integrate the local changes with dpkg-source --commit
dpkg-source: error: aborting due to unexpected upstream changes, see /tmp/linmon_0.1.3-2.diff.BEZMlk

Please either remove those files, or sync them with what is in the tarball.

From a manual check, here are some notes:
 - Please upgrade the watch file to version 5.
 - The tests are marked as superficial, is that intentional?
 - Please update to Standards-Version 4.7.4, dropping Priority: optional and Rules-Requires-Root: no from control.
 - Please consider upgrading to debhelper-compat 14.
 - Please limit debian/changelog to one entry for your initial upload.

It otherwise looks okay on an initial, manual pass. Please remove the moreinfo tag once you are ready for review again. Feel free to CC me, if I'm available I can review again.

Best regards,
