Hello, Some news from the Gnome Packaging tools :
1- The SVN repository is opened : --------------------------------- You can browse it here : http://svn.debian.org/viewcvs/pkg-gnome/ For the moment the root has 3 dirs : - packages : which contains the packages dirs with the debian/ files (I've uploaded file-roller as an example). - docs : for the docs - tools : for the others stuffs If that can help somebody, to connect the SVN, I've added this to ~/.subversion/servers : [groups] pkg-gnome = pkg-gnome.alioth.debian.org [pkg-gnome] svn-tunnel = ssh To "checkout" the SVN: svn co svn+ssh://pkg-gnome.alioth.debian.org/svn/pkg-gnome/ls 2- gnome-pkg-tools package : ---------------------------- I've just uploaded a gnome-pkg-tools package with the list of team uploaders. The package will probably contains some other stuffs later but for the moment we just need to have the uploader list. 3- Packages management : ------------------------ The idea to have a debhelper module for {gnome:team} doesn't work (the .dsc file doesn't contains the Uploaders field in this way). So the pkg-gnome-tools contains the list in a text file (/usr/share/pkg-gnome-tools/team_members). This solution work fine (advices are welcome): * add gnome-pkg-tools to Build-Depends * mv control -> control.in * "Uploaders:" in the control.in Debian GNOME Maintainers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, @GNOME_TEAM@ * in debian/rules : gnome_team = $(shell cat /usr/share/gnome-pkg-tools/team_members) clean: sed "s/@GNOME_TEAM@/$(gnome_team)/" debian/control.in > debian/control (clean :: for cdbs) 4- Other points : ----------------- * Having the list of gnome team packages will probably make the QA resume not very easy to read (10 standards packages in the middle of the > 70 Gnome ones ...). Perhaps it'll nice to have the co-maintains package in a different table ? Any advice on that ? All the comments/feedbacks/advices are welcome Cheers, Sebastien Bacher PS: nautilus needs 3 more days (libxml2 delay) to reach testing and we should have gnome2.2 in testing
