Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "python-cobs":

 * Package name    : python-cobs
   Version         : 1.2.2-1
   Upstream contact: Craig McQueen <python@craig.mcqueen.id.au>
 * URL             : https://github.com/cmcqueen/cobs-python
 * License         : Expat
   Vcs             : https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/python-cobs
   Section         : python

The source builds the following binary package:

  python3-cobs - Consistent Overhead Byte Stuffing (COBS) for Python 3

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

https://mentors.debian.net/package/python-cobs/

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

  dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/python-cobs/python-cobs_1.2.2-1.dsc

This is the initial release and closes the ITP bug: https://bugs.debian.org/1008738

Cheers!

hi Damian,

I took a look at the python-cobs package, up for sponsorship in the
Python team. Just two easily fixable issues:

* tests: the autopkgtest doesn't actually run any tests (and always
  passes). You may have to write a simple "manual" autopkgtest if the
  one auto-generated via the Testsuite field in d/control is a no-op,
  see [1] for an example.

* d/source/options: sets an option to ignore a nonexistent egg-info;
  please drop the file entirely.


Once the above comments have been addressed, simply re-add the
package to the IRC channel topic and/or ping me by e-mail.

PS: the Python Team doesn't use mentors for sponsorship request, just
the team mailing list and IRC channel topic - with all work done
directly in git.
