Bug#490247: cdd-dev: Data from official package should take precedence on manually filed data in task file

2008-07-15 Thread Andreas Tille

Hi Frederic (and others),

I just want to mention that in the log file


/srv/alioth.debian.org/chroot/home/groups/cdd/webtools/logs/debian-science.out

those packages are mentioned that have resolved ITP bugs and thus can be
removed from the prospective package list in the tasks files to keep these
clean from cruft.

One more hint: in the same directory is the file

debian-science.out

which lists suspicious things.  Many of them are listed because packages
vanished or were renamed - others are mentioned because the tool is weak
to detect alternatives properly.  But having a look into this file from
time to time helps to detect problematic dependencies in the tasks file.

Kind regards

 Andreas.

The webtools stuff is not (yet) in cdd-dev - and perhaps it will never
be packaged because in principle it needs only be installed on one
host (alioth) and thus I have not seen a reason to package this stuff.
(I have really thought about this, but found no good reason to do so ...)


I think the information displayed for an official package when this
package finally entered Debian should be the data of the package and
not the data from the task file.


Definitely!


See for example the data for the Paraview package on this page
http://cdd.alioth.debian.org/science/tasks/viewing.html that even
displays the WNPP and older data obsoleted by the new package.


Thanks for spotting this.  I'll try to fix this and leave the bug
open for the moment - but it just does not concern the cdd-dev package
(for those who wonder whether there is something wrong with cdd-dev or
not).

Kind regards

  Andreas.

  Yes, you're right. What would be the best way to report bugs on the
webtools stuff? With a new pseudo-package
(http://www.debian.org/Bugs/pseudo-packages)? directly on
debian-custom (but we'll lack the features of the BTS)?

  Thanks. Sorry for introducing a possible confusion.

Best regards,

Hmmm, I do not have a good idea.  I do not really think that this
rather minor tool should be regarded as pseudo package.
Perhaps this might be a reason for packaging it?

Kind regards

Andreas.

Hi,

I think the information displayed for an official package when this
package finally entered Debian should be the data of the package and
not the data from the task file.
