Hi Markus,

Thanks for working on the OSSIM package!

You're a member of the pkg-grass team, and you should therefor have
commit access to both the Git and SVN repos.

Most of the Debian GIS packages are maintain in Git now, OSSIM is one
of the few remaining package still in SVN.

Would you be willing to move the OSSIM package from SVN to Git?

If I may propose a wishlist item, move from CDBS to dh for more
uniformity with the other Debian GIS packages.

It's probably sufficient to add CPPFLAGS to CFLAGS in debian/rules to
have the build use -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2, which I assume is the
hardening issue lintian reports.

lintian uses hardening-check to verify the hardening flags, and the
hardening-no-fortify-functions check has some false-positives. If
that's the case you can add a lintian override with the comment
containing the hardening-check verbose output, e.g.:

# -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 is used during build, but hardening-check reports:
#  Fortify Source functions: yes (some protected functions found)
#        unprotected: memset
#        protected: sprintf

I'm not sure about the above. Hopefully Francesco can shed some more
light on this.

It's a good thing it builds, nice work!

There don't seem to be any reverse dependencies in Debian that need to
be taken into account. Maybe we have some users of OSSIM lurking on
debian-gis@ or subscribed to the PTS that may be able to help you get
some real world tests of your updated package.

Kind Regards,

Bas
