Bug#612620: rxvt-unicode-ml: backspace doesn't work in mutt any more

2011-02-10 Thread Decklin Foster
Excerpts from Samuel Thibault's message of Wed Feb 09 10:50:15 -0500 2011:
 On upgrade from 9.07-2+b1 to 9.09-3, the backspace key stopped working
 in mutt. Downgrading again makes it work again. I guess that is related
 with the switch between rxvt-unicode and rxvt-256color, as these are
 really far appart, actually...

9.09-5 (unstable) should fix this. On upgrade you will be transitioned from
rxvt-unicode-ml to rxvt-unicode (same as the old -ml package), if you want
to deal with the 256-color mess there is rxvt-unicode-256color. If this does
not go smoothly for you please open another bug.

(If you know anyone who wants to adopt rxvt-unicode, I'm about to send a
message to -devel. I'm not going to touch the other thread.)

Bug#564160: 3.2.0

Excerpts from Clint Adams's message of Wed Dec 22 14:53:23 -0500 2010:
 Is updating to 3.2.0 a better solution?

Looks like it. I'll run some tests and see if there's any problematic
changes in 3.0.8 (code diff from 3.0.8.1 to 3.2.0 is minimal.)

Bug#605951: rxvt-unicode: colors are totally fucked up

2010-12-09 Thread Decklin Foster
Excerpts from Marc Lehmann's message of Thu Dec 09 06:30:03 -0500 2010:
 The original urxvt uses rxvt-unicode and rxvt-unicode-256color
 TERM values, respectively, which are the correct values, and portable.

By respectively, what are you referring to?

 as added benefit debian wouldn't be needlessly incompatible to the
 rest of the world (which uses the correct terminfo files).

There is no rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo entry in Debian or the
rxvt-unicode distribution that I can see, but (see above) I don't know
exactly what you mean here.

 it would be preferable if debian clearly marked their version
 of rxvt-unicode as completely incompatible to upstream and other
 distributions

I'm sorry. I don't *want* us to be incompatible, or to break anything. I
am trying to deal with a longstanding user request (for something I
don't even use), and make it actually possible to use that feature. I
really don't know if it's going to work. It may not make it from unstable
into a distribution.

 (or alternatively maybe consider not continuously and deliberately
 breaking it...)

What else do you still consider *deliberately* broken? I would like to
address it. (For other issues, it's not necessary to reply to this bug.
Comment on another one, flame me privately, whatever.)

 If debian really insuist on doing their own incompatible patches,

This is not our own patch. I am trying to use it because you for
whatever reason deemed it worth including (not applied) in the upstream
distribution (9.09).

 it would be far better to rename the package to something like
 debian-rxvt, and certainly set the TERM values to something like
 debianurxvt or so, as opposed to introducing more subtle bugs and
 giving users a chance to install the correct debian-specific terminfo
 on remote systems.

A distro-specific terminfo entry is the last thing I want. Really. Users
need to log in to other systems. That is why we are right now, as you
say, fucked.

 (*) debian has a long tradition of non-communication with upstream

OK, I think I must be frank here. I'm not going to randomly send stupid
questions to an upstream that without fail has been abusive to every
rxvt-unicode Debian maintainer that I can remember. Sorry.

 and deliberate bug-introducing patches,

Really, which do you think is the simpler explanation here?

  - You disagree with us on X, Y, and Z, and people make mistakes

  - I am the last in a long line of maintainers who have all
independently come up with a sinister plot to undermine you by
deliberately making our own users unhappy

 even going as far as removing our request to report bugs in the
 debian version to debian only from the FAQ section, as we are not
 responsible for their bugs.

This is simply not true. I undid the relevant diff over two years ago.

Bug#600973: mpc: No numbers on playlist

2010-10-21 Thread Decklin Foster
Excerpts from Keelan's message of Thu Oct 21 20:36:54 -0400 2010:
 The mpc version in squeeze 0.19-2 does not have playlist numbers when listing
 the playlist with mpc playlist

You now need to use either %position% or %id% in your format string
explicitly. I believe this is intentional on the part of upstream. The
problem (as this is a behavior change) is that it is not documented
anywhere... I will see if that can be remedied.

Excerpts from Jérémy Lal's message of Sat Aug 21 09:13:04 -0400 2010:
 i need some more info, because i can't reproduce that bug.
 Which module were you trying to run nodejs-waf with ?
 Does the error happens if you run nodejs-waf outside any module tree ?

I tried in a checkout of node-sqlite, and got the same error when
outside of any module tree.

What is the intended way for the node-waf script to add
/usr/share/nodejs/wafadmin/ to python's module path? Have you tried
using python-support?

2010-08-21 Thread Decklin Foster
Excerpts from Jérémy Lal's message of Sat Aug 21 13:06:41 -0400 2010:

 In fact nodejs-waf script adds /usr/share/nodejs/wafadmin and Tools/
 to sys.path before importing Scripting module.
 That might be screwed by setting PREFIX_NODE environment variable.
 Is that the case for you ?

Nope, not set. I took a look at the script, and it is prepending the
following to sys.path:

['/usr/bin/../lib/node/wafadmin', '/usr/bin/../lib/node/wafadmin/Tools']

these should have 'share/nodejs', not 'lib/node'. (Maybe you have a
manually installed copy still in /usr/lib?)

 I did not try using python-support, could you point me in the right
 direction for doing that properly ?

See http://wiki.debian.org/Python/Policy .

Excerpts from Jérémy Lal's message of Sat Aug 21 14:31:20 -0400 2010:
 Nope, i tested on my own i386 laptop and on a amd64 server, same results.

This is strange. Are you sure you don't have a /usr/lib/node on these
systems? If you step through nodejs-waf up to the import, what do you
get in sys.path?

 Could you test with nodejs 0.2.0 ?

I don't see 0.2.0 as being packaged for Debian? At any rate, the script
looks the same on master:

http://github.com/ry/node/blob/master/bin/node-waf#L8

That line needs to be changed, or else the wafadmin stuff should be
installed somewhere in the system path.

Bug#588860: netcat: -q option has gratuitously incompatible default value

2010-07-12 Thread Decklin Foster
Excerpts from David Caldwell's message of Mon Jul 12 16:30:58 -0400 2010:
 Debian netcat has an extra -q option. This is not a problem except that the
 default for the -q option (o_quit in the source) makes netcat behave
 differently on Debian than on other systems. This causes portability
 problems in scripts--you can even see the effects in Debian packages:
 libvirt and virt-manager

This has been addressed in netcat-openbsd, which I thought libvirt had
been updated to depend on by now. Is there some other package you
specifically need to use netcat-traditional in?

Yeah, I think I'm going to do this. I was just looking at the problem
earlier today (wanted to write some new BeautifulSoup-using code), and
it's not as if Debian is going to completely switch over to Python 3
anytime soon... I'll do a 1:3.0.whatever before the freeze. I'm not
sure yet if a separate 3.1 package is warranted.

Bug#568588: mpd: MPD default config doesn't allow multiple, programs to share audio output via ALSA

2010-04-23 Thread Decklin Foster
Excerpts from Max Kellermann's message of Fri Apr 23 02:52:13 -0400 2010:
  On my card, hw:0,0 isn't the PCM channel, so this results in mpd
  fiddling a different volume knob than the one it's playing through.
  Commenting these lines back out, or replacing hw:0,0 with
  default, made it work.
 
 That used to be the default, but it caused so many headaches and
 support nightmares, it was changed.  In addition to actual problems,
 dmix works only for the same uid, severely degrades the sound quality
 and increases CPU usage.  You're free to activate it if you wish.

What do you think about leaving the device at hw:0,0 as it is but
allowing the mixer to be determined automatically (i.e. just comment
out PCM in the config file I ship)? I agree about dmix but maybe that
would be a good compromise.

Bug#564034: Bug#45675: netcat: -q flag causes non-standard behaviour

2010-04-18 Thread Decklin Foster
Excerpts from Benedikt Spranger's message of Wed Apr 07 11:35:53 -0400 2010:
 The -q flag introduced by Debian is completely superfluous and harmful.
 It causes a lot of trouble in a cross platform environment.
 Furthermore the implementation changes netcat to a non standard
 behaviour.

I've corrected this in netcat-openbsd (1.89-4). After reviewing the
source in both packages and testing versions with the -q patch removed
entirely, I've determined that the default behaviors in *hobbit*'s
netcat and OpenBSD netcat are not the same (OpenBSD normally quits on
EOF, *hobbit*'s does not unless you add and use a -q flag). At this
point, I believe that anyone who has chosen to keep Debian's
netcat-traditional installed instead of upgrading probably depends on
its warts and quirks, so I'd prefer to only fix netcat-openbsd to make
it work as people expect and not the (arguably broken) traditional
way. Let me know if using netcat-openbsd is an acceptable solution for
you.

markdown2pdf: Please install the 'unicode' package from CTAN:

My ideal resolution to this problem would be that the texlive
maintainers are persuaded to move UTF-8 support back to -recommended,
so I guess I'll file another bug for that.

Bug#571679: texlive-latex-recommended: should include ucs.sty

2010-02-26 Thread Decklin Foster
Package: texlive-latex-recommended
Severity: normal


Somewhere between Lenny and now, ucs.sty was moved from -recommended
to -extra. As UTF-8 support is (I believe) a release goal, I would
really like to be able to use it without installing all of -extra
(which is not itself large, but with Recommends/Depends requires a
227(!) MB download to install).

In particular, this move prevents pandoc from working out of the box,
which I have filed separately as #571678 in case you think ucs.sty
really ought to be kept in -extra.

Bug#569039: xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd: overscan at 1920x1080

2010-02-09 Thread Decklin Foster
Package: xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd
Version: 1.3.0-2
Severity: important


Since upgrading to 1.3.0, I am experiencing overscan on the HDMI
output at 1920x1080 (native resolution of my TV -- there is no
overscan at lower resolutions). It it probably not more that 25
pixels, but causes scaling artifacts. (I don't understand how you
can even have overscan with a digital output, but that's what it
looks like.)

I believe that I had this problem with 1.2.0, and 1.2.5 fixed it, and
now it is broken again, but 1.2.5 has been removed from the archive
and snapshot.debian.net appears to not mirrored anything for the past
10 months so I am unable to locate packages to roll everything back
and test this.

Bug#556964: Fixed?

2010-01-16 Thread Decklin Foster
 Our mpd runs on a host with both an IPv4 and an IPv6 address. My workstation
 only has an IPv4 address (but does have the ipv6 kernel module loaded as per
 Debian default). This makes mpc fail with Network is unreachable.

This should have been fixed around 0.15 or so. Could you confirm if the
problem still exists with the current version 0.19 in testing? Thanks.

 The new sup provides a new experimental Xapian backend to replace

 Unfortunately, the sup-mail package doesn't depend in any way on
 libxapian-ruby1.8, so you end up with a backtrace if you try to use it:

Do you think it would be acceptable if this were a Recommends or
Suggests? the Xapian backend is still experimental and switching is a
little complicated (as described in the announcement). I have only
played with it, not converted my real mail stores.

Bug#555310: Upgrade of rxvt-unicode messes with my alternative installation

2009-11-09 Thread Decklin Foster
Excerpts from Patrick Schoenfeld's message of Mon Nov 09 05:28:40 -0500 2009:
 (Basically this is the german translation of removing manually selected
 alternative -  switching x-t-e to auto mode and using
 /usr/bin/gnome-terminal.wrapper
 to provide /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator (x-terminal-emulator) in auto mode)

This was done to fix #481123. urxvtcd, which I assume you had
selected, is not suitable for x-terminal-emulator (since it always
immediately returns instead of running until the terminal closes,
which I agree is a major problem), so I decided that the alternative
should be removed entirely on upgrade. The priority for /usr/bin/urxvt
is pretty low since users who don't know what they're installing
probably want the more standard xterm or gnome-terminal. Thus,
reverting to auto mode did not give you urxvt.

(If you did not have urxvtcd selected, or no longer have an
alternative for urxvt, then I have horribly messed something else up.)

I see two solutions here: (1) update-alternatives is extended in some
way to let you rank all alternatives, or save a stack of selections,
or prioritize other alternatives from the same package on removal, or
(2) I add a special case here to manually force the selection to urxvt
if urxvtcd was selected. (I guess there is also (3) increase
/usr/bin/urxvt's alternative priority on the assumption that only
users who know they want it are going to install rxvt-unicode... but
it's hard to say that about a package that's not Priority: extra.)

 Severity is kind of a stretch. Basically I'm not sure if
 /etc/alternatives are to be considered configuration files, but as they
 reflect local configuration choices I consider it to be a policy
 violation to mess with them, because Debian policy 10.7.3 should apply
 to those links to follow the policies spirit.
 
 I am, however, not sure weither the bug is in rxvt-unicode or not,
 so please feel free to reassign it if needed.

If you think (1) is best I guess this could be wishlist on dpkg. I'm
not sure; I don't know if anything will ever get done about it in that
case, but (2) feels much more against the spirit of not messing with
the user's /etc than deferring to update-alternatives.

(N.b. currently, rxvt-unicode has been dropped from testing since the
other bug was raised to RC and I didn't deal with it in time. This bug
being RC will continue to keep it out. I'd like to avoid that.)

Bug#555310: Upgrade of rxvt-unicode messes with my alternative installation

2009-11-09 Thread Decklin Foster
Excerpts from Patrick Schoenfeld's message of Mon Nov 09 14:47:01 -0500 2009:
 3) Well, your package already has the wrong configuration (according to
 policy it should have 20) but increasing it wouldn't help much.

Hm. I'm not sure why the priority was originally lower that what's
currently specified in policy; I'll fix it. /usr/bin/urxvt doesn't
fail any of the requirements (IMO the problem with urxvtc falls under
in the manner that xterm does).

 IME the change should be to:
 1. Not remove the alternative if its set to urxvtcd
 2. Add a note to NEWS.Debian, telling about the problem and all its
 consequences

Yes, this is probably the least-disruptive thing. I'll just put a
conditional on the update-alternatives call and write up a note.

 I can understand you in that point. But as long as there is a bug about
 messing with admins configuration without at least a note about this,
 the package /should not/ migrate to testing again.

OK, just wanted to be sure of your opinion.

severity 481123 wishlist
thanks

Excerpts from Andreas Amann's message of Mon Oct 26 07:51:55 -0400 2009:
 This seems not justified, and the better solution is in my opinion to
 simply not offer urxvtcd as x-terminal-emulator alternative.

I think you're right -- I was trying to implement Martin's suggestion,
but it seems like (a) I don't have the libev-fu to hack it (b) it
would be hairy enough (touching the rxvt_term class, not just the
daemon) that our notoriously prickly upstream would never accept a
patch. I've removed the alternative for 9.06-2 (uploading).

It would still be nice to be able to put it back, I guess, so I'll
leave this open as wishlist if someone else wants to try.

Bug#545559: Init script: Cannot _stop_ mpd when START_MPD is set to false.

2009-09-08 Thread Decklin Foster
Excerpts from Florian Forster's message of Tue Sep 08 02:20:24 -0400 2009:
 The value of “START_MPD” should not effect the shutdown behavior.
 Otherwise mpd may not be shut down gracefully when the system is
 stopped.

I'm not sure exactly what you want this to do. Are you starting MPD at
some point after boot as it is configured in the package, or are you
running it from a user account?

What is the issue with starting mpd on boot? It seems like if we can
fix that, the root of the problem would be solved.

 For extra credit it'd be nice to be able to disable automatic start of
 the daemon on system startup yet be able to start the daemon “by hand”
 at a later point (without changing /etc/default/mpd back and forth).

The init system just runs the script. If there's a proper way to
detect by hand invocation I am unaware of it. (Of course,
/etc/default/mpd is sourced by the shell. You're allowed to kludge it
there with something like test -f /etc/nologin  START_MPD=false...)

I just figured out that the original patch here is incorrect.
have_header(form.h) will fail on a system (such as a pbuilder) with
only ncursesw and not ncurses. We need to call find_header to ensure
that /usr/include/ncursesw is added to the include path, HAVE_FORM_H is
defined, etc.

Attached is a diff of what I'm using at http://apt.rupamsunyata.org/sup/.
With it, sup works. Without it, it doesn't (#520374).

from /usr/bin/diakonos:5

This is totally nuts. The package includes a /etc/diakonos.conf, which
looks like a perfectly reasonable configuration file. The program
should use this file for defaults, then override them with any
settings in the user's personal dotfile, if that file exists, like
most *nix programs.

If it is impossible to implement that for now, then /etc/diakonos.conf
should silently be copied to ~/.diakonos on startup if the latter does
not exist. End-users should never have to pull fresh configuration
files from a development repository, even from a tag; they should use
the stable one shipped with the package.

(If I understand the goal of this package correctly, a sizable segment
of its target audience shouldn't be pestered about configuring
anything at all. I don't, however, feel it's as much of a problem if
users who *do* wish to configure their editor need to copy the whole
default file to their ~/.diakonos before tweaking it; they presumably
know what they're getting into.)

This does not only make the package unusable for one user if their
network is down, but also for everyone if the development host (I
assume it's fetching this directly from Github) has an outage for any
reason. The package should be self-contained (it already has the file
in question, anyway). So, I'm marking this as grave.

 At least one configuration file must exist.

Upon reading the code, it appears that the first entry (current
directory) is taken from an installation-wide conf_dir setting. These
settings are defined in /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/diakonos/installation.rb.

This file should definitely be customized for Debian; it looks like
it has been left with the default settings for running diakonos out of
a working copy. Something like:

:prefix   = '/usr',
:bin_dir  = '/usr/bin',
:doc_dir  = '/usr/share/doc/diakonos',
:help_dir = '/usr/share/diakonos/help',
:conf_dir = '/etc',
:lib_dir  = '/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/diakonos',

Note that the help files are not currently installed by the package and
I don't really know what it needs doc for (it may not have anything to do
with /usr/share/doc).

Anyway, with these values corrected, diakonos sanely offers to copy the
config file from /etc rather than downloading one. This might not be
optimal, but it allows the program to run.

Bug#520382: missing libmpd1: This is still a bug...

2009-03-21 Thread Decklin Foster
Excerpts from Vincent Fourmond's message of Sat Mar 21 10:55:37 -0400 2009:

   I must say that I strongly disagree with this statement: every package
 must be built against packages found in unstable. Not with the personal
 packages you built on your computer, *even if they are in NEW* ! So this
 package is broken, and it shouldn't be.
 
   Please, pretty please, don't upload broken software to unstable ! Use
 a chroot to build the packages you upload - or, if you have depend on
 the newer libmpd, wait before uploading.

No. This is *why* testing and the buildds exist -- we can track whether
or not packages are buildable and installable with *software*. You are
asking me to do it by hand.

Unstable does not exist so that you can carelessly get the latest and
greatest software; it exists so that we can break it. Use testing.

   BTW, this is really annoying because aptitude, seeing that it cannot
 fulfil dependencies for an updated version, proposes a removal. (I know
 aptitude is stupid on this, but nevertheless, this situation should not be).

If you want to fix this, please do.

Bug#520382: missing libmpd1: This is still a bug...

2009-03-21 Thread Decklin Foster
Excerpts from Vincent Fourmond's message of Sat Mar 21 12:18:14 -0400 2009:
   Sometimes, unstable gets broken because of transitions. But in this
 case, this is just carelessness from your side: you should not
 build-depend on a library not in unstable, and upload the resulting
 package. As a side effect, buildds are choking on the package. They are
 not here to choke on careless build-deps, but to build the archive.
 Sometimes, often, they do choke for *real* porting problems. But that
 isn't the case here. You're imposing an extra load on the buildds for
 something you *know* won't work.

If choke is a description of an actual problem, and not just your
rhetoric about how you think things should be done, then propose a fix.
There is nothing technically intractable about how you seem to think
unstable should work. Personally, I don't see the point.

Bug#512557: lastmp: Will not install unless mpd is a system-wide service

2009-01-21 Thread Decklin Foster
Excerpts from Jason Riedy's message of Wed Jan 21 13:40:33 -0500 2009:
 I have mpd set *not* to run system-wide, and I've removed the service
 from /etc/rc*.d by insserv -r /etc/init.d/mpd.

You should disable it by editing /etc/default/mpd. This is documented
in README.Debian, and would cause MPD's init script to be a no-op.

I'm open to changing the blessed way to do this from a cruddy text
file to insserv, but only when Policy changes such that I am required
to have it on my machine... currently, I do not, and am only putting
in the LSB crud because users have requested it.

 lastmp is still perfectly usable per-user without running
 system-wide, so it would be nice if the installation worked...

Of course, you are right. I will move mpd to Should-Start: (and
Should-Stop:) in the LSB block so that it works when MPD is not
installed on the same host. I think this will fix your particular
problem, depending on how the LSB init stuff handles the case of
installed-but-not-in-any-runlevel, but consider that a felicitous side
effect. :-)

Bug#510822: mpd: Would like to have song rating field and 'not yet rated flag'

2009-01-04 Thread Decklin Foster
You should probably file this upstream at http://musicpd.org/mantis/.
I don't see anything currently in the feature category that looks like it.

Excerpts from Daniel Dickinson's message of Sun Jan 04 23:18:40 -0500 2009:
 Package: mpd
 Severity: wishlist
 
 
 It'd be nice if mpd could store song ratings (preferably per-user) so that one
 could quickly select only favourites for a playlist, or to be able to listen 
 to
 many hours of okay music instead of too many repeats of the favourites.
 
 A 'not yet rated' flag would be helpful so that you could easily find songs 
 not
 yet rated.
 
 Alternatively, using playlists of, say favourites and okay, and having a 'new'
 flag that one could remove when when has decided what playlist (if any) new
 songs belong in, would be nice.

Bug#504609: mpd: init.d should read MPD user from mpd.conf

2008-11-05 Thread Decklin Foster
Excerpts from David Futcher's message of Wed Nov 05 11:31:14 -0500 2008:
 Forwarding a patch from Ubuntu, mpd's init.d file should read the mpd
 user from mpd.conf, instead of assuming the username is 'mpd'.

What is the problem that this solves?
Why does it require awk?
Why is it looking at audio_output?

I very much dislike the idea of people running mpd under random
accounts, because there's no way I can support someone who thinks
they know what they're doing and breaks their setup in some strange,
account-dependent way when they should just be using the defaults
(#mpd is *full* of these kids). I will have to tell them to come back
when they can produce the problem using the mpd user, which is a PITA
for everyone involved.

I'm really not happy that Ubuntu is doing this, but I guess it's up
to them.

martin f krafft writes:

 Anyway, I am not sure at this moment whether my patch is actually

Well, upstream doesn't seem to like it:
http://lists.schmorp.de/pipermail/rxvt-unicode/2008q4/000721.html

I realize I should have pointed out (to you) that urxvtc does send its
environment to the new terminal that urxvtd creates. That may or may not
be useful. (OK not really, what we would like here is for urxvtcd to
Just Work out-of-the-box...)

Ultimately I think using a login shell for this (as mentioned in the
thread) would be the way to go. Since not all users want every terminal
to be a login shell (I don't), I'd have to leave the default as off,
and make it a FAQ... and then we'd have to ensure that bash and zsh
correctly set SHLVL to some known value for login shells (which seems
like what one wants here) -- it seems to me that they should anyway.
You want to count the number of shells from the login shell, right?

(OTOH, if Debian's /etc/bashrc fixes this up and other distributions
don't... meh.)

2008-09-30 Thread Decklin Foster
martin f krafft writes:

 Since /usr/bin/urxvtcd is a shell script, it will increase $SHLVL
 for urxvtd's environment

Well, only if /bin/sh is bash.

What is the problem caused by increasing $SHLVL? What is $SHLVL
good for? (I don't use bash.) According to the documentation, it is
incremented by each bash process, so if urxvtd is in fact started by a
bash process, this seems like a correct reflection of what happened.

If you're going to use a shell that sets SHLVL and need it to start at a
known value in each terminal window, I would suggest creating a wrapper
for urxvtd that initializes it.

urxvtcd could of course be replaced with a tiny C program but I'm just
not sure why it would be necessary.

2008-09-30 Thread Decklin Foster
martin f krafft writes:

  Well, only if /bin/sh is bash.
 
 No, also with dash and zsh. And for the cases where $SHLVL is not
 set, my patch will just no-op.

I tested dash here and it didn't (the man page also makes no mention of
SHLVL either). Are you sure? As for zsh, I suppose I should have assumed
it has everything ;-)

I guess my point was just that if it says #!/bin/sh it's a script for
any POSIX shell and this is a workaround for a feature in shells that
are a superset of POSIX. I'd like to see dash as the default /bin/sh
sooner rather than later so that things like this don't come up.

 Well, yes and no. I use SHLVL to tell make my $PS1 tell me when I am
 in a subshell. I don't care that there are already two shells
 involved just to get the terminal (xsession (where I reset SHLVL
 myself) + urxvtcd).

I'm not *strongly* opposed to doing something in rxvt-unicode, but I
do think this (I mean, SHLVL itself) is an ugly hack. Isn't what you
actually want here counting *interactive* shells? From a little googling
it seems that what people want SHLVL for is displaying something in PS1
or otherwise modifying interactive behavior. For this purpose I think
something like

case $- in
*i*) ishlvl=$(($ishlvl+1));;
esac

would be more useful (do normal programs, as opposed to shell init
scripts, ever consult SHLVL?). As you said, the value SHLVL normally
starts at sitting in front of an X session is totally arbitrary and
useless. I'd really prefer to discourage its use.

 Plus, the shell that spawns urxvtcd or urxvtd will not be around
 anymore when the terminal is spawned:

Right, but the definition of SHLVL doesn't say anything about this.
So, if bash runs my ~/.xsession, the SHLVL in the environment is still
incremented when that shell disappears by exec-ing the session manager.

 Sure, but let me ask you the opposite, in the face of the
 aforementioned the shell that spawns urxvtcd or urxvtd will not be
 around anymore: why should $SHLVL be incremented at all?

Well, I also think this is dumb, but only because I think SHLVL itself
is dumb. :-) It seems to be the natural consequence of the design
-- if some random thing happened to be invoked by a shell, SHLVL is
incremented, whether we care about it in the real world or not. Adding a
workaround here is possible, but won't fix that broken design for other
programs.

You're right. Since #478018 was fixed by fixing this anyway, I shouldn't

I've been considering just building two packages, one with all useful

There's not much meaningful difference between rxvt-unicode and

Bug#500049: ITP: ears -- collection of MPD/Last.fm clients

2008-09-24 Thread Decklin Foster
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name: ears
  Version : 1.0.0
  Upstream Author : Decklin Foster [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* URL : http://www.red-bean.com/decklin/ears/
* License : MIT
  Description : Last.fm plugin for MPD and CD ripper

  Ears contains a number of scripts originally distributed with
  lastfmsubmitd:

   - lastmp, an MPD player plugin that uses lastfmsubmitd
   - peel, a CD ripper that optionally uses lastfmsubmitd
   - several MusicBrainz tools to facilitate getting data in or out
 of either program

  This package replaces the standalone lastmp package that used to be
  part of lastfmsubmitd. However, if you don't use MPD, you can still
  install this package and use peel to rip CDs.

No, the world certainly does not need another CD ripper[1], but it,
along with lastmp etc, weren't doing much good sitting in lastfmsubmitd
and muddying the purpose of that package. So I've split them out.
There's absolutely no new code in this version. MPD users (who still
need something to send data to Last.fm; this is the important one) will
get the usual transitional package.

Basically any other random music tool that speaks lastfmsubmitd-ish YAML
would be welcome here (maybe a tag editor?).

This should make it less painful for other player plugins[2] to depend
on lastfmsubmitd. (and lastmp won't be an entire binary package for a
less-than-250-line script...)

As far as I can tell this name is so dumb that there is little chance of
it getting confused with some other package, generic as it may be.

[1] it was a proof-of-concept for the spool format, I swear.

[2] this is their term, which is why it's in the long description even
though it's technically incorrect.

Severity: wishlist
Owner: Decklin Foster [EMAIL PROTECTED]

* Package name: mnemosyne-blog

  Upstream Author : Decklin Foster [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* URL : http://www.red-bean.com/~decklin/mnemosyne/
* License : ISC
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description : Maildir-to-blog compiler with XML templating and Python 
extensions

  Mnemosyne is a simple blogging system which generates static files.
  Instead of using a database or filesystem hierarchy, you store your
  entries in a Maildir. Writing a blog entry is thus as easy as sending
  an email, and rebuilding the blog can be automated with mail filters,
  cron, etc.
  .
  XHTML and XML are generated with Kid templates; a bare-bones web view
  and an Atom feed are included as examples. Mnemosyne is extensible in
  Python to add features such as input preprocessing (reStructuredText
  is used by default), metadata (tags are standard) and filtering
  entries for custom feeds.

Yes, yet another static intarblog thing. I have found some interest
in blogging again, and would like to get it in better shape (almost
everything that should be added can be done as an extension, but the
extension interface is somewhat incomprehensible). As far as I know the
Maildir design is unique.

I wrote this ages ago, and in the meantime another package was renamed
to mnemosyne, so in the tradition of epiphany-browser (and sup-mail,
which I am presently packaging) I'm going with mnemosyne-blog and
renaming things out of the way appropriately.

The short description starts with a capital letter only because
Maildir is spelled with an M.

Note: license in the released version is still MIT, but I'm
transitioning most of my non-GPL code. Before this goes in I will
probably roll 0.9.1.

 Thats strange, because urxvtcd and rxvt-unicode both state that its

 your package does not install a new version of this binary.

That is... extremely strange. urxvtc has not gone anywhere (I'm

kthxbye

I am interested in packaging sup for Debian. I plan on packaging all the
required libraries for non-gem installation (ITPs to follow)[1]. I currently
have a package that works, but only if the gems are already installed. I
can throw this on git.debian.org if anyone is interested in testing or
helping out.

I have changed the name here to sup-mail, but might consider sup-mailer.
William, I would appreciate your opinion here (sup in Debian is taken
by some unrelated program). The two other packages I use with this problem,
git-core and epiphany-browser, both use a dash (and I am about to ITP
mnemosyne-blog, so there you go). Also, I plan on providing a sup-next
package for experimental, so this would be more consistent.

[1] Nothing wrong with gems per se, they just aren't useful here. Users need
to be able to type apt-get install sup-mail and that requires using our
system, just like how we don't use CPAN or eggs. Perhaps when I'm done with
this I'll have something that makes it easier to make a .deb out of a gem.

2008-06-16 Thread Decklin Foster
Raphael Hertzog writes:

 In the case of netcat, the quilt series contains patches that
 modify files in the debian directory. You shouldn't have to dynamically
 patch the files in the debian directory since its content is
 provided by the .diff.gz (or the new .debian.tar.gz in the new format).

The reasoning for this was that

  - The manual page (nc.1) was added by Debian
  - a couple of the quilt patches add new options which
are logically separate from those in other patches

So, additions to nc.1 were placed in whichever patch added the
documented feature.

I am in the process of converting everything to git-buildpackage,
so this problem will go away. For lenny, I'd like to keep the
format as it is so that the patch series for -openbsd (new) can
be compared to the existing one in -traditional.

Immediately after that I will start uploading from git (AIUI,
until we can really upload 3.0 source packages, this will result
in a big ugly .diff.gz, which I would not consider fit for release
in the case of such a heavily modified package as netcat). I'll
close these bugs whenever that is.

How do you plan on managing patches, and the packaging in general? I

your SVN repo looked like a standard svn-buildpackage layout (with
upstream on a branch).

 The latest version is 20071230-2, published in the usual place:

 changes the font used by the XTerm. It also causes the rxvt-unicode
 window to shift +1+1, which it shouldn't.

Just out of curiosity, what WM are you running? It appears that urxvt
doesn't adjust the ResizeInc hints on the window, either, which makes
aewm fail rather glaringly. I'd like to recover from that better.

As for the bug, it should be sufficient to have urxvt not set the flags
for X and Y position when it reconfigures the window -- only the width
and height are important. This is (at a very cursory check) what XTerm
does, and XTerm works for me.

(The resize-hint thing is a property change and will probably require
adding code. Feel free to open a bug on that.)

Bug#479424: mpd fails to start sometimes due to an error in /etc/init.d/mpd

 mpd start stop script don't create /var/run/mpd, so if you have /var/run
 mounted over tmpfs, mpd will fails to start.

This is fixed in testing. Could you please try 0.13.1-3?

Bug#473540: mpd starts too soon (before mountall.sh has run)

2008-03-31 Thread Decklin Foster
Dennis Kaarsemaker writes:

 Please change the default start later in the boot sequence, specifically after
 S35mountall.sh, so it will work on nfs mounts or dmraid as well. see
 also: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mpd/+bug/141425

Huh? mountall.sh runs in level S, mpd runs in level 2. Ubuntu's problem
may be related to upstart. The current package has dependency-based init
info, if it uses that.

I can't figure out from that Ubuntu page how to Cc the bug.

Bug#471111: mpd_stop should preferentially invoke mpd --kill

2008-03-15 Thread Decklin Foster
Nick Black writes:

 Per the man page, mpd --kill is the proper way to shut down mpd.

I'm not sure this is implied by the wording. Regardless, --kill
functions by reading the pid_file and sending a SIGTERM to the mpd
process. start-stop-daemon (as called by our init script) sends SIGTERM,
waits 5 seconds, then sends SIGKILL. If your system is extremely loaded,
perhaps MPD does not respond to the SIGTERM within 5 seconds. Try
changing the value given for --retry.

If this solves a reproducible problem for you, I'll consider increasing
it. However, if your system seems fine otherwise, it would be helpful if
you could examine closely what is going on during the timeout. It may
be a sign of some other problem.

 UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 63:

Can you tell me what happens if you don't run it in this locale?

 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) (ignored: LC_ALL set to C)

Thanks.

Bug#469690: lastmp: Crashes when song title contains non-ascii characters

2008-03-06 Thread Decklin Foster
Joris van Rooij writes:

 Plus, the lastfm user has it's shell set to /bin/false and it's home dir does 
 not exist. That pretty much keeps it from using any env variable I have 
 changed anywhere, right?

Should be using /etc/environment, I believe. I have LANG set there to
en_US.UTF-8. While something like this has been working[1] for most
people, it's not great. The problem is that the locale I want for my
environment doesn't really have anything to do with the encoding I use
for my tags; they're just hopefully the same if I keep things organized.
But then a tag may have invalid UTF-8. It really should be fixed in MPD;
I haven't looked too closely at what it does.

It looks like this could be improved a lot, though, by doing more
guessing on the input end and only considering the system locale for
output purposes. You would end up seeing 'ignore' or 'replace' encoded
stuff in your log file, which might be disconcerting, but... not a
show-stopper. I'll see what I can do.

[1] Let's try it now with some valid UTF-8:

2008-03-06 17:29:22,489 lastmp[2455] INFO: New song: Björk - Jóga [5:06]

So yeah. But that works for you too if I understand correctly.

Bug#469435: lastmp: only handles a single mpd

2008-03-05 Thread Decklin Foster
Paul Collins writes:

 I have a bunch of mpds installed around the place (two on this machine
 alone), and it would be nice if a single lastmp could talk to all of
 them, whether by direct support or by starting one per mpd.

It should be possible for any number of lastmp processes (this would
have to be one per MPD) write to the same lastfmsubmitd spool. Would a
--config option make this easier? Not sure what your setup looks like.

 last.fm's spam protection would probably trigger if I played music
 with more than one mpd at a time, but that would be my problem.

I hear they relaxed this. (But I am very behind on updating protocol
stuff...)

Bug#467505: does not provide /bin/nc without netcat-traditional

2008-02-25 Thread Decklin Foster
martin f krafft writes:

 I need to install netcat-traditional to make it work.

Thanks; this was due to netcat-traditional removing the wrong path after
the package name was changed, so if you don't want to install/uninstall
again (-37 will work properly), you can remove it from the database
by hand:

update-alternatives --remove nc /bin/nc.traditional
update-alternatives --set nc /bin/nc.openbsd

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Bug#463901: mpd needs 'shout' audio output plugin compiled in package - Lenny

2008-02-03 Thread Decklin Foster
Brian Millan writes:

 Supported outputs:
 alsa ao oss pulse jack

Hmm. Unfortunately, this is not surprising. See #453746; we don't build
with libvorbis on arm, but rather libvorbisidec (Tremor, the integer
decoder); e.g. the NSLU2 doesn't have a FPU so regular libvorbis is
unacceptably slow.

libvorbisidec, is, however, just a decoder; Shout needs to encode to
Vorbis as well, and so depends on libvorbis (floating-point). Therefore
if MPD is configured --with-tremor shout output is disabled. It *might*
be possible to hack things up to use Tremor for decoding but still link
against libvorbis for shout outputs, but this would probably be ugly and
you'd still end up with poor performance.

There doesn't seem to be a good answer here; sorry.
