Bug#1066136: python3-xapian-haystack: unusable on stable due to use of deprecated module django.utils.six
Package: python3-xapian-haystack Version: 2.1.1-1 Severity: grave Tags: upstream patch Justification: renders package unusable Dear Maintainer, I installed python3-xapian-haystack in order to employ Xapian as a Haystack backend in mailman3-web on stable (bookworm). However, upon actually trying to use it, I got the following traceback: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/django/core/handlers/exception.py", line 47, in inner response = get_response(request) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/django/core/handlers/base.py", line 181, in _get_response response = wrapped_callback(request, *callback_args, **callback_kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/hyperkitty/views/search.py", line 54, in search results = EmptySearchQuerySet() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/haystack/query.py", line 25, in __init__ self._determine_backend() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/haystack/query.py", line 58, in _determine_backend self.query = connections[backend_alias].get_query() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/haystack/utils/loading.py", line 114, in __getitem__ self.thread_local.connections[key] = load_backend( File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/haystack/utils/loading.py", line 60, in load_backend return import_class(full_backend_path) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/haystack/utils/loading.py", line 22, in import_class module_itself = importlib.import_module(module_path) File "/usr/lib/python3.11/importlib/__init__.py", line 126, in import_module return _bootstrap._gcd_import(name[level:], package, level) File "", line 1206, in _gcd_import File "", line 1178, in _find_and_load File "", line 1149, in _find_and_load_unlocked File "", line 690, in _load_unlocked File "", line 940, in exec_module File "", line 241, in _call_with_frames_removed File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/xapian_backend.py", line 10, in from django.utils import six Exception Type: ImportError at /hyperkitty/search Exception Value: cannot import name 'six' from 'django.utils' (/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/django/utils/__init__.py) django.utils.six was removed in Django 3.0; the version of Django in stable is 3.2. Hence python3-xapian-haystack is currently unusable in stable, as it simply throws an ImportError upon loading. Upstream fixed this issue when they dropped Python 2 support in [0]. However, I have a simpler patch that just removes the six import and changes all occurences of `six.moves.range()` to the built-in `range()`, which I've applied locally (hence the debsums complaint) and seems to do the trick. I would very much like a stable-update for this given that the package simply does not work without the patch.

Bug#1054097: ITP: libparse-man-perl -- Perl library for parsing nroff-formatted manpages
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Andrius Merkys X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-de...@lists.debian.org * Package name: libparse-man-perl Version : 0.03 Upstream Author : Paul Evans * URL : https://metacpan.org/dist/Parse-Man * License : Perl 5 Programming Lang: Perl Description : Perl library for parsing nroff-formatted manpages Parse::Man, an abstract subclass of Parser::MGC, recognises nroff grammar from a file or string value. It invokes methods when various nroff directives are encountered. It is intended that this class be used as a base class, with methods provided to handle the various directives and formatting options. Typically a subclass will store intermediate results in a data structure, building it as directed by these method invocations. This is a dependency of sdview/libapp-sdview-perl (see #1054001); Andrius expressed interest in having Parse::Man in Debian and offered to package it, hence I've marked him as the owner of this bug. All the best, Ole

Bug#1054001: ITP: libapp-sdview-perl -- terminal document viewer for POD and other syntaxes
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Ole Peder Brandtzæg X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-de...@lists.debian.org * Package name: libapp-sdview-perl Version : 0.13 Upstream Author : Paul Evans * URL : https://metacpan.org/dist/App-sdview * License : Perl 5 Programming Lang: Perl Description : terminal document viewer for POD and other syntaxes The App::sdview module implements a terminal-based program for viewing structured documents. It currently understands POD, some simple Markdown formatting, and a basic understanding of nroff (for manpages). The accompanying sdview script runs the App::sdview program, which renders a structured document to a terminal output, via the less pager. Why is this package useful/relevant? I've found reading the documentation of various Perl modules using sdview to be a very pleasant experience. Obviously, perldoc already exists for this purpose, but the syntax highlighting sdview offers makes for a much better reading experience in my opinion. As the description notes, the support for manpages is quite rudimentary; in my testing, the manpage for ls renders fine, whereas the manpage of man itself does not: ⚘ ~ sdview man Expected (?^u:\ ) in /usr/share/man/man1/man.1.gz on line 1 at: '\" t ^ I'm not sure if the package including such unstable features is a blocker for packaging it; apologies for the noise if so. However, I believe its POD support is the main selling point. How do you plan to maintain it? === This would be my first Debian package, so I would need a sponsor (and most likely a bit of mentoring). The Debian Perl Group seems to be a natural fit for the package, but I would be happy to maintain it on my own or co-maintain it with them/anyone else. libapp-sdview-perl does depend on a few other modules (all by the same upstream author) not presently packaged in Debian, so they would need to be packaged, too, but I figured I should file this first. They are: - Object::Pad::FieldAttr::Checked [0] - Parse::Man [1] - String::Tagged::Markdown [2] All the best, Ole [0]: https://metacpan.org/dist/Object-Pad-FieldAttr-Checked [1]: https://metacpan.org/dist/Parse-Man [2]: https://metacpan.org/dist/String-Tagged-Markdown

Bug#1011440: libsnmp-perl: behaviour fixed in do_not_callback_for_failed_reports.diff reintroduced in bullseye
Package: libsnmp-perl Version: 5.9+dfsg-3+b1 Severity: normal Tags: upstream Dear Maintainer, Upon upgrading from buster to bullseye this weekend, which included libsnmp-perl going from 5.7.3 to 5.9, we noticed that one of our Perl scripts utilising SNMP started segfaulting. Stacktraces[0] indicate similar behaviour to what Steinar H. Gunderson described in his do_not_callback_for_failed_reports patch.[1] Looking at the source tree, it appears this patch was commented out just after 5.8 was released,[2] presumably due to this upstream refactor of the receive API.[3] My knowledge of both C and SNMP is unfortunately too lacking for it to be apparent to me what would need to change to make it possible to reapply the patch to the refactored functions. Any ideas on how to proceed? All the best, Ole Peder Brandtzæg P.S. This is my time reporting a bug with a Debian package – do let me know if I've done something wrong or you require additional information!
