OK, we are not yet there to upload to Debian due to the pre-dependencies you are mentioning below. > QIIME now relies on a thing called "burrito-fillings" and associated > "burrito". I upgraded your burrito package (please regard SVN!) and uploaded it to the new queue. Burrito-fillings will follow. > As far as I can see these are supposed to replace the > troublesome Python-Cogent but they don't - you need both for QIIME > 1.9.x! (Yes, there is obvious copy-paste code between the two). I do not know what actual trouble your are refering to but I remember that I tried to establish the test suite of python-cogent into the Debian package and failed terribly. I stalled this effort and I only remember that depending of removing some totally unrelated pieces of code inside he test suite had totally unpredictable results for the outcome of the test suite. I have never seen such strange things in any other Python module. It seems there will be no change since there is no release in the last three years. Do you have any more detailed information? > My current RDP test failure is to do with something in the latest > burrito-fillings library. Did you nticed that there is a new upstream version 0.1.1? I need to wait until python-burrito is accepted and a quick look uncovered another pre-dependency: python-skbio. I'll work down all your work - please watch Debian Med SVN closely for any updates that might help you. > Furthermore, burrito needs the python-future library from here: > > https://github.com/PythonCharmers/python-future I was perfectly able to run the test suite with Debian's own python-future / python3-future. > I've pushed the packaging for that to SVN (I still don't understand how > the heck GIT is supposed to work on Alioth) I'm fine with SVN as long as its in VCS. Git is explained in the Debian Med policy - just have a look there and it should be easy. More specific questions are welcome for sure. > but it's not a biomedical > library at all, just a generic compatibility layer, so maybe should not > be under Deb Med. What do you think? We have a lot of non-medical stuff here. If our team needs to maintain a package for whatever reason it is good to have it under our control. If another team wants to "steal" some work from us that would be perfectly fine. :-) > I'll let you know when I'm done with my debugging and push the Burrito > stuff too. Just checkout the latest python-burrito from SVN and latest upstream from python-burrito-fillings. May be that might solve some problems.
