Hi,

I've brought the packaging up to date and would appreciate a sponsor
to upload it:

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

Summary of changes (2.1-3-dfsg-3, QA upload):
  - Reconciled git with the archive-only 2.1-3-dfsg-2.7 NMU (was never
    pushed to the Salsa repo)
    ( This still wants merging on Salsa:
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/cunit/-/merge_requests/1 )
  - debhelper-compat bumped 9 -> 14, Standards-Version -> 4.7.4
  - Maintainer set to Debian QA Group per the orphaned status
  - Existing patches given proper DEP-3 headers
  - Excluded a couple of previously-unnoticed unclaimed files now that
    dh_missing errors on them by default (duplicate doc headers, a
    stray .la file)

Verified: clean local build, `lintian --pedantic`, and
`debian/tests/test.sh` via autopkgtest all pass.

Many thanks for your sponsorship and time!

Kind regards,

     Edmund

retitle 1136394 ITA: cunit -- Unit Testing Library for C -- development
files

thanks

Re-sending the retitle — my mail client soft-wrapped the command line
last time, which the BTS doesn't rejoin, so "files" got dropped and
processing stopped. This corrects the title.

I'm adopting cunit (previously orphaned) and am in the process of
getting the updated packaging reviewed via mentors.debian.net.


Thank you,

     Edmund

Closes: 1136394
Changes:
 cunit (2.1-3-dfsg-3) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * New maintainer (Closes: #1136394)
   * debian/control:
     - Maintainer set to myself; Uploaders and debian/compat dropped
     - debhelper-compat: 9 -> 14; Build-Depends: dh-autoreconf dropped
     - Standards-Version: 3.9.6 -> 4.7.4
     - Priority and Rules-Requires-Root dropped: both are the default since
       dpkg 1.22.13 and are now flagged as redundant
     - Homepage: switched to https
     - Vcs-Git and Vcs-Browser: point at the repository where the package is
       actually maintained
   * debian/rules:
     - drop --with autoreconf (implicit since compat 10)
     - drop DH_VERBOSE and the legacy DPKG_EXPORT_BUILDFLAGS
     - set DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS = hardening=+all; the ncurses build had
       lost every hardening flag because -lncurses was passed as a configure
       LDFLAGS assignment, overriding dpkg-buildflags.  Pass it via LIBS
     - split the dh_install, dh_installman and dh_installexamples overrides
       into -arch and -indep variants.  "dpkg-buildpackage -A" installed both
       build trees but built only libcunit1-doc, so dh_missing, which is fatal
       since compat 13, aborted the arch:all-only build
     - keep the examples in /usr/share/doc/libcunit1-doc; since compat 11
       debhelper would auto-detect libcunit1 as the main package and relocate
       them, and libcunit1-doc does not depend on libcunit1
   * debian/watch: rewritten in the version 5 format, https URL, fixed mangles
   * debian/patches: DEP-3 headers on all patches; new patches renaming
     configure.in to configure.ac and fixing a manpage typo
   * debian/not-installed: added (dh_missing is fatal since compat 13)
   * debian/upstream/metadata: added
   * debian/salsa-ci.yml: added, with the arm64 build job enabled in addition
     to the default amd64 and i386
   * debian/tests: replaced the stale test.sh, which referenced build
     directories that do not exist at test time, with two tests compiling
     against the installed packages via pkg-config
   * debian/source/lintian-overrides: document the unavoidable
     hyphen-in-upstream-part tag
   * debian/copyright: https URLs; added myself to debian/*
