Bug#678343: RFS: tilem/2.0-1 [ITP]

[Albert Huang]

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "tilem"

 * Package name    : tilem
   Version         : 2.0-1
   Upstream Author : Benjamin Moody and Thibault Duponchelle (tilem...@sourceforge.net)
 * URL             : http://lpg.ticalc.org/prj_tilem/
 * License         : GPL, LGPL, GFDL
   Section         : math

It builds those binary packages:

  tilem - GTK+ TI Z80 calculator emulator

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

  http://mentors.debian.net/package/tilem

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

  dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/tilem/tilem_2.0-1.dsc

More information about tilem can be obtained from http://lpg.ticalc.org/prj_tilem/.

Changes since the last upload:
 * Initial release (see package description)

Personal notes:
This is a low-frequency update application, and it's quite easy to maintain! (At least, if my packages aren't terrible...)
I'm pretty sure everybody has had (or has seen) a TI calculator, right?
This emulator really does a good job of emulating those TI graphing calculators (and evoking nostalgia too!).
As always, the emulator does NOT provide ROMs, but it does offer ways to dump or create a ROM legally.
Please consider sponsoring my package!

Regards,
Albert Huang

Your package build-depends on versions of libticables-dev,
libticalcs-dev, libticonv-dev and libtifiles-dev that are not even in
debian, which of course means it fails to build. How come?

Newer versions of those packages are waiting for sponsorship too.
