I think that the position, as well as the website, are crystal clear.

The ‘Quick Overview’ is not a license by itself, it simply tries to summarise
in two lines what copyleft means, and is not an additional restriction to the
GPL.

debian-de...@l.d.o is a good place to hear some advices, but the only persons
who veto packages in Debian are our archive administrators, an none of them has
objected against libjs-extjs. In my opinion, just go ahead and it will be fine 
:)

Have a nice day,

I know I should have filled the bug report first, but I frankly
discovered only now that the equivalent of old sun-java6-plugin
metapackage is icedtea and that's bring me to another subject: users
should be informed on how to migrate away from sun java6 (even because
it would be a de facto switch from non-free software to free software,
even if it is the same).  Do we currently have a smooth migration path
from the old set of packages to the new set in place for Lenny to
Squeeze migrations?

Before that is in place, I'd consider premature removing sun-java*.

Apropos of this topic, Eclipse in Squeeze for me crashes on startup with 
Java errors using OpenJDK.  To be fair, it isn't especially stable with 
Sun.  Eclipse in Sid runs, but with reduced function.  I have not 
checked to see if bugs have been filed, but since the topic was raised 
here, I thought I'd mention it.


(Besides, my system is not too weird, and I expected since it was a 
startup crash, it surely would have been filed by now.  At any rate, I 
would have filed it as an Eclipse bug, not a Java bug.)

Nobody is asking for debate, but if you were to write yourself "We put no
conditions on the GPL v3 use, other than those of GPL v3 itself." ends any
starting debate indeed, but then what you have write on your website is
kind of confusing (at least to some of us).

Don't worry, I'm not arguing that we should keep sun-java6 :-) I'm all
in favor of switching to openjdk.

Still, the fact that sun-java6 is not maintained is not an argument for
not offering a smooth upgrade. For instance, openjdk can take over the
-plugin binary package formerly offered by sun-java6 and have it depends
on icedtea (possibly in OR with the other -plugin implementation using
gcj, pretty please as the second alternative :-).

If there is an active maintainer of sun-java6 (which I doubt, from your
report) that should be done in agreement with her, otherwise just take
over the binary and be done with that.  Please also submit the change
notice to the forthcoming release notes.

Cheers.

I think I failed to explain my point. I trust your word in saying that
icedtea is feature complete (beside bugs) wrt sun-java6-plugin. But, It
took me a while (as an old user of sun-java6-plugin) to understand what
I should install to replace the old package; I presume most current
Lenny users will face the same problem when switching to Squeeze.

Also considering that the latter is non-free software whereas icedtea is
free software, I think we should have an automatic upgrade path from
sun-java6-plugin to icedtea. That upgrade path should automatically
bring icedtea to our Lenny users when they upgrade to Squeeze.

Also, this change warrants a line in the release notes, IMHO.

Cheers.

This is a bug, and it has already been filed.  The maintainer has fixed
it in the Ubuntu version, and therefore it should be fixed in Debian
shortly.  If the bug still isn't fixed by the time Iceweasel 3.5 hits
unstable, I'll upgrade it to grave.

Uh, icedtea6-plugin is present and installable; that would be the
replacement for sun-java6-plugin.  It doesn't work in non-Gecko
browsers, but I don't think sun-java6-plugin did either.

Stefano,

Well that brings up part of my question.  I doubt we have a smooth 
migration since sun-java6 doesn't even have a maintainer.  Even Sun is 
End Of Lifing sun-java6 soonish ( at least the potential is there that 
it could get EOL'd during Squeezes lifecycle).  Not to mention it 
currently has 34 open security issues (granted, I have not verified all 
of the ones showing up on PTS).


Hell I'd even try to help maintain it from a QA perspective but I am not 
a Java person.  Nor could I even attempt to help fix openjdk/icedtea but 
at some point these issues have to get resolved, don't they?  The 
potential is that we either have a broken sun-java package or none.  I 
realize that the current package apparently works but the potential is 
there for it to break and no one to fix it.


Thanks,

Barry deFreese

Is it time to remove sun-java6?

2009-10-08 Thread Barry deFreese

Hi folks,

A few of us have been discussing the removal of sun-java6.  It is 
non-free, orphaned, buggy (including security bugs), and can generally 
be replaced by openjdk.  There are only three reverse depends left and 
none of them directly depend on sun-java6 but instead dep on java6-runtime.


There has also been some similar discussions in Ubuntu with some users 
reporting that some web sites and packages don't work with openjdk but I 
have not seen a lot of concrete proof.


My personal feeling is that we either need to remove it or fix it up.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Barry deFreese

Hi again,
now aptcc backend install/remove/update

Josselin Mouette advices I'm planning to write
a DBus frontend to debconf that will emit a signal
when it needs a Session frontend to be attached.

I created a sequence diagram to ilustrate what i'm

sensible, with this we would have PackageKit
working with deb packages the same way Synaptic does
just not too advanced.

Please give me some feedback on this
so i can start coding :D

command line.

Python Audio Tools are a collection of audio handling programs which work from 
the command line. These include programs for CD extraction, 
track conversion from one audio format to another, track renaming and 
retagging, track identification, CD burning from tracks, and more. 
Supports internationalized track filenames and metadata using Unicode. Works 
with high-definition, multi-channel audio as well as CD-quality. 
Track conversion uses multiple CPUs or CPU cores if available to greatly speed 
the transcoding process. Track metadata can be retrieved from 
MusicBrainz, FreeDB or FreeDB-compatible servers. Audio formats supported are:

* WAV
* AIFF
* Sun AU
* FLAC
* WavPack
* MP3
* MP2
* Ogg Vorbis
* Ogg Speex
* Ogg FLAC
* M4A
* Musepack

Is there a specification about "soon"? The problem is that I not
even can build 4.3.1-2 (see FTBFS bug report).

Maybe this is related to the big python stall that is happening 
at the same time, anyone having an idea on that?

Best wishes

Norbert

Bug#550218: ITP: python-liblas -- A Python module to use the ASPRS LiDAR data translation library

2009-10-08 Thread Francesco Paolo Lovergine
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Debian GIS Project 

* Package name: python-liblas
  Version : 1.2.1
  Upstream Author : Howard Butler 
* URL : http://pypi.python.org/pypi/libLAS
* License : BSD
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description : A Python module to use the ASPRS LiDAR data translation 
library

  This is the python binding for the libLAS library. LibLAS is a C/C++
  library for reading and writing ASPRS LAS versions 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2
  data. The LAS format is a sequential binary format used to store
  data from sensors and as intermediate processing storage by some
  LiDAR-related applications. LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) is
  an optical remote sensing technology that measures properties of
  scattered light to find range and/or other information of a distant
  target. The prevalent method to determine distance to an object or
  surface is to use laser pulses.

You're right.

But three-way merge still requires the end-user to validate the merge. (Or to 
resolve conflicts).

Config::Model can perform a similar task without user input.

All the best

Oh, indeed nothing written. "nothing to worry right now", I'd say.
