I now updated the package to upstream version 0.02 and did the
following debian/* changes/updates:
* New upstream version 0.02.
* Rename package from libtext-string-hexconvert-perl to
libstring-hexconvert-perl.
* Take over unmaintained package (Closes: #1018938, #979504).
* Add debian/watch file.
* Update debian/copyright.
* Add debian/source/format.
* Update debian/control: New debhelper, Priority optional,
Standards-Version 4.6.1, updated Homepage, Rules-Requires-Root: no.
* Add VCS headers to debian/control.
* Add Testsuite: autopkgtest-pkg-perl.
* Add CI via debian/salsa-ci.yml.
The main change is the renaming of the source and binary package from
libtext-string-hexconvert-perl to libstring-hexconvert-perl, since
this the canonical name for a Perl moduled named String::HexConvert,
the "text-" part does not make sense here.
I pushed the new package to salsa:
https://salsa.debian.org/perl-team/modules/packages/libstring-hexconvert-perl
where the salsa pipeline runs without issues and the package is now
lintian clean.
I attached a diff of debian/ directory between 0.01-2.1 and new
0.02-1, if you are interested in the upstream changes, have a look at
salsa (see above).
I didn't receive any response to the ITS request for 21 days now, so
as the next step I'll upload the package to the DELAYED queue with 7
days delay now.
Greetings
Roland
