$ who-uploads texmaker Uploads for texmaker: 1.7.1-2.1 to unstable: Jonas Smedegaard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Ups, you are right - I was working on a not updated package cache. Sorry for the confusion. I will try to revert my changes, inject the upload in SVN and polish things up.
It was uploaded as an NMU, so I included his changes and add his own changelog entry...
Sure - I just was somehow confused and sorry for sharing this confusion with you ...
Well... because sarge does't have texlive, including tetex should be useful if someone wants to backport texmaker into current oldstable, but it will be unneded after lenny release..
Well, tha package we upload *now* is for lenny+1 anyway and lintian claims depending from obsolete packages ...
Following this, we should not drop gs-esp/gs-gpl neither... because ghostscript isn't on etch, so they will be needed for backporting even more time... until squeeze release
I just removed these in SVN. Backporters will have to touch things anyway and as I said - we are now uploading for lenny+1 anyway.
Anyway I don't know if we need to be backport-friendly with oldstable... I don't really think so, so I believe we can remove all them after lenny release...
I do not think so neither (and lintian agrees with us). ;-)
Well, I have no experience at all with group-maintaining... In fact, yesterday's checkout was the first time I used SVN... So I can offer little help until I read about it... but if is OK to you, sure I will be happy to help!
No problem - just ask if something remains unclear. Please give me some time to polish SVN regarding the NMU (in worst case it might happen not before Monday).
Is there any doc relating your usual packaging workflow? I have seen a lot of them for git, but very few for svn...
Well, the Debian Science policy says "we use git" but we are in some preliminary state where the git-uneducated people use the existing SVN as long as policy doc is finished ans contains an easy to follow step by step description what to do. I'm currently following the Debian Med policy [1] until things are settled and hope for a smooth upgrade path svn to git.
I tried to commit yesterday and it failed (but I don't know if it was because I was doing it wrong, or because I haven't access), can you please confirm...
Do you have a login on Alioth? If yes, which user name and if no you have to ask for a user name first.
Does it really needs to be soon? I think they are all minor changes, so they can be done after lenny, maybe dropping tetex-* and gs-*...
Well, Lenny is frozen anyway so the package we upload now will not be propagated to Lenny anyway. So if the NMU was rectified our changes are as well. Kind regards and thanks for your interest in TeXMaker Andreas.
