Hi, Danielly! How are you? I saw that you opened an RFS for this package, and I would like to know whether you intend to continue with the packaging process. I recently opened an ITP for the same package (#1144969) and have also started working on packaging it for Debian. Since I noticed that we are both working on the same package, I thought it would be best to get in touch so we can coordinate our efforts and avoid duplicating work. If you are still interested in maintaining the package, I would be happy to collaborate and work on it together with you. On the other hand, if you do not intend to continue with the process, I can proceed with the packaging work I have started. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you! Nilson F. Silva
Hello, I am updating this sponsorship request following the review and coordination with Nilson Silva, who filed ITP #1144969 for dz6. The previous 0.7.0-1 upload should no longer be considered for sponsorship. A revised 0.7.1-2 package is currently being prepared and reviewed. The packaging repository is available on Salsa: https://salsa.debian.org/danielly/dz6 The changes under review are available in merge request #1: https://salsa.debian.org/danielly/dz6/-/merge_requests/1 The Rust dependencies were reviewed using debcargo-conf, all build dependencies are available in Debian unstable, and a clean sbuild build completed successfully without downloading dependencies from the Internet. The changelog remains marked as UNRELEASED while the remaining maintainer, uploader and Debian Rust Team repository details are being confirmed. I will send another update with the final Debian Mentors upload when the package is ready for sponsorship. Regards, Danielly Nunes
