I am once again looking for a sponsor for a orphan package which I have adopted: GNADE, the GNat Ada Database Environment. Here is the new long description which I wrote for it; please consider sponsoring this package.
Description: Develoment files for the GNat Ada Database Environment GNADE is a complete database development environment for Ada programmers. It consists of: . a. A Thin binding to the ODBC API. With this API, you can write programs that query any ODBC-compliant database server. . b. Thin bindings to some specific database servers which provide functionality above and beyond ODBC. In this release, these include MySQL and PostgreSQL. . c. An Embedded-SQL preprocessor, gesql. You can write Ada programs that contain embedded SQL statements, as per the ISO SQL 92 standard. The preprocessor translates the embedded SQL statements to ODBC calls. Until such time are they are sponsored into Debian, my packages will be available here: deb http://www.ada-france.org/debian ada main deb-src http://www.ada-france.org/debian ada main The packages are lintian-clean and build on both Sarge and Sid. Here is the changelog entry: gnade (1.4.3a-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream version. * New maintainer (Closes: #215518). * Use gnat 3.15p (Closes: #156638). * Better package descriptions (Closes: #210009). * Do not build-depend on autoconf; we do not change the *.in files and do not require it. * Removed shlibs.defs and other manifest files; generate the information at build time. * Bumped up Standards-Version to 3.6.1 (from 3.5.6). * Moved gnade-dev to section libdevel (from libs). * Provide a GNAT project file, /usr/share/ada/adaincude/gnade.gpr. -- Ludovic Brenta <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mon, 24 Nov 2003 16:29:09 +0100 And here is the .dsc: -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Format: 1.0 Source: gnade Version: 1.4.3a-1 Binary: libadapostgresql1, gnade-dev, libadamysql1, gnade-doc, libadaodbc1 Maintainer: Ludovic Brenta <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Architecture: any Standards-Version: 3.6.1 Build-Depends: debhelper (>> 4.1.0), gnat (>= 3.15p-1), unixodbc-dev, docbook-to-man, libpq3, libmysqlclient10-dev, postgresql-dev Files: 60df29e981c254359b680c6dd1f68bcb 699973 gnade_1.4.3a.orig.tar.gz bc8215a2ccdce3817b20b4d74b3faa31 7196 gnade_1.4.3a-1.diff.gz -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/wjgpx9kwJZ3/qtQRAsfMAKCQpkoaR5dyHwuci2rTEvmwcb2UkgCeL3RW JUtIckIJjl+QFoyrEF+R4iw= =zCV/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Ludovic Brenta.
