Version1.3.0-1
Changed-BySimon Quigley <tsimonq2@debian.org>
Changelog◂
rust-serde-saphyr (1.3.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Package serde-saphyr 1.3.0 from crates.io using debcargo 2.8.4
   * Make huge_documents and serde_derived_types imply deserialize so
     isolated autopkgtests compile.
   * Enable deserialize for the empty and serialize-only autopkgtests;
     the crate requires serialize or deserialize, and un-cfg'd
     integration tests use both APIs.
   * Run the all-features autopkgtest with --lib so it fits the schroot
     tmpfs.

Final Comment

Hi,

The Files: * stanza attributes everything to only two holders (Meškauskas, Wyngs). But the source tree contains third-party code with distinct copyright holders:

  • tests/grafana/* is reused from the Grafana fork by Julien Duchesne (tests/grafana/README.md).
  • tests/nested_enums.rs:5 and tests/read_multiple.rs:98 are adapted from a yaml-serde PR by cho-minsung.

Debian Policy §12.5 requires the copyright file to accurately document copyright holders. The licensing is still free (MIT/Apache), but the attribution is incomplete and should list these original authors/holders.

Thanks!
