Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 2.0.0-2 of my package "formiko". * Package name : formiko Version : 2.0.0-2 Upstream Author : Ondřej Tůma <mcbig@zeropage.cz> * URL : https://formiko.zeropage.cz * License : BSD-3-Clause and MIT Vcs : https://github.com/ondratu/formiko-debian.git Section : editors It builds those binary packages: formiko - reStructuredText and MarkDown editor and live previewer formiko-vim - reStructuredText and MarkDown editor and live previewer - Vim mode To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: https://mentors.debian.net/package/formiko/ Alternatively, you can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/f/formiko/formiko_2.0.0-2.dsc Changes since the last upload: * debian/control: split formiko-vim into its own binary package (Closes: #1145686) - New formiko-vim package ships the formiko-vim binary, its .desktop file and man page, with an explicit Depends on formiko (= ${binary:Version}) and python3-pynvim: pynvim was previously only a Suggests on formiko, so the Vim mode silently failed to work without it - formiko no longer ships the formiko-vim binary, .desktop file or man page - Move python3-m2r2 and python3-pygments from Suggests to Recommends for formiko: they are small and worth having installed by default - Drop Suggests entirely (python3-pynvim is now a hard Depends of formiko-vim instead) - Add Breaks/Replaces (<< 2.0.0-2~) on formiko-vim for the files moved out of formiko - Drop dh-sequence-single-binary from Build-Depends, required now that the source builds two binary packages * debian/rules: add formiko.install/formiko-vim.install to split the pybuild install tree between the two packages; override dh_installdocs so formiko-vim's doc directory is a symlink to formiko's Build and test status: Verified with dpkg-buildpackage that the source builds both binary packages cleanly, lintian -EviIL+pedantic is clean of anything new compared to the previously accepted 2.0.0-1 upload, debdiff against 2.0.0-1 shows only the intended changes, dpkg-source -x round-trips the source package back to the packaging in Vcs-Git, and an apt-get install --dry-run of both .debs confirms formiko-vim pulls in formiko and python3-pynvim as expected with no file overlap between the two packages. Regards, Ondřej Tůma

Sorry for the confusion — 2.0.0-2 was never accepted into the archive, so the pynvim crash fix should not have been released as a separate 2.0.0-3. I've merged it back into the still-unreleased 2.0.0-2 instead of keeping it as a new revision, and re-uploaded the corrected package to mentors.debian.net: https://mentors.debian.net/package/formiko/ The changelog for 2.0.0-2 now contains both changes (the formiko-vim split and the pynvim fix) in a single entry. Retitling this bug back to 2.0.0-2 accordingly. Ondřej Tůma
