I'm not sure what you are really after, but maybe this helps:
grml's zsh config has a nice function dneews:
% which dnews
dnews () {
emulate -L zsh
if [[ -r /usr/share/doc/$1/NEWS.Debian.gz ]]
then
$PAGER /usr/share/doc/$1/NEWS.Debian.gz
else
if [[ -r /usr/share/doc/$1/NEWS.gz ]]
then
$PAGER /usr/share/doc/$1/NEWS.gz
else
echo "No NEWS file for package $1 found, sorry."
return 1
fi
fi
}
Cheers,
gregor

Re: Debian Med video conference tomorrow, Friday 2021-12-17 18:00 UTC
Hi, this is the call for the next video conference of the Debian Med team that are an established means to organise the tasks inside our team. We do these conferences twice per month on every 2th and 17th of a month. Usually it takes us only 15-20min depending what we are talking about and how many people are joining. The next meeting is tomorrow 18:00 UTC https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Debian+CoViD-19+Biohackathon+Video+Conference&iso=20211217T18 The meeting is on the Debian Social channel https://jitsi.debian.social/DebianMedCovid19 These video meetings were started in the Debian Med Biohackathon. The topic is what contributors have done in the past period and to coordinate the work until the next meeting. For those who are interested in hot topics we want to tackle, here are some items: - This month we are doing our advent calendar bug squashing party (even if its not displayed as nicely as in former years).[0] - Effort to package tensorflow and other ML software which is used in several applications that are used to fight COVID-19. The precondition bazel to package tensorflow was a direct consequence of a Debian Med hackathon and it was even acknowledged[1] - Package software that is used to fight COVID-19 which we are listing in some spreadsheet[2]. It reaches from small tools up to complex software packages. There should be targets for everybody who wants to join us. - General Debian Med issues not directly connected to COVID-19 Newcomers and bug squashing volunteers are always welcome. Lets keep on the great work and see you tomorrow Andreas.

Bug#1001812: ITP: mold -- mold: A Modern Linker
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Sylvestre Ledru X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-devel@lists.debian.org * Package name: mold Version : 1.0.0 Upstream Author : Rui Ueyama * URL : https://github.com/rui314/mold * License : AGPL v3 Programming Lang: C++ Description : mold: A Modern Linker Lazy quote from upstream: mold is a faster drop-in replacement for existing Unix linkers. It is several times faster than LLVM lld linker, the second-fastest open-source linker which I originally created a few years ago. mold is created for increasing developer productivity by reducing build time especially in rapid debug-edit-rebuild cycles.
Pb with version comparison
Hi all, during an update I encountered a problem: * package node-is-plain-object breaks gulp < 4.0.2-9 (both already migrated to testing) * I created new gulp: 4.0.2+~cs54.26.36-1 * gulp-4.0.2+~cs54.26.36-1 is considered as newer than 4.0.2-9 during install which is logical * When launching another build (schroot) with this new package, build failed because dpkg considers 4.0.2+~cs54.26.36-1 < 4.0.2-9 and refuse to install gulp-4.0.2+~cs54.26.36-1 with node-is-plain-object Did I something wrong or is there a bug somewhere else? To workaround, I modified node-is-plain-object "Breaks" field for now Cheers, Yadd
Bug#1001803: ITP: python-djangorestframework-flex-fields -- Dynamic fields and nested resources for DRF
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Michael Fladischer X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-devel@lists.debian.org -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA512 * Package name: python-djangorestframework-flex-fields Version : 0.9.6 Upstream Author : Robert Singer * URL : https://github.com/rsinger86/drf-flex-fields/ * License : Expat Programming Lang: Python Description : Dynamic fields and nested resources for DRF FlexFields (DRF-FF) for Django REST Framework is a package designed to provide a common baseline of functionality for dynamically setting fields and nested models within DRF serializers. To remove unneeded fields, you can dynamically set fields, including nested fields, via URL parameters (?fields=name,address.zip) or when configuring serializers. Additionally, you can dynamically expand fields from simple values to complex nested models, or treat fields as "deferred", and expand them on an as-needed basis. . This package is designed for simplicity and provides two classes - a viewset class and a serializer class (or mixin) - with minimal magic and entanglement with DRF's foundational classes. I intend to maintain this package as part of the Debian Python Team. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- iQFFBAEBCgAvFiEEqVSlRXW87UkkCnJc/9PIi5l90WoFAmG7X5QRHGZsYWRpQGRl Ymlhbi5vcmcACgkQ/9PIi5l90Wrgxwf+Ji+XeM/8I4lE/LzKUz5aS/fMyOgllNlM sx6vpxDI9WPauE1Zttz6ZD6SZPzpjrAxdugnVftetdn4w+m8yTwNdSn4GivnIiFH 6BP492g/bXMcuVsdSaVFYGfMoXo5BzxK8vdeWDyRrQ0nYMcltLipmz1mm/by1mAQ /lJYgx+SbZwDKTxYpF2p1XO1RE3Rq0ixR51a4B82bHulpalO0q362Zg/1vQ5JmmL XQko82EualGnwVZmhp9FIilyVPNZrkTMsTkmh0Cwl8MU+4ZgQg0Ndqy8xaOWx3vk odjESUI3TAzjAw1qRRMUBkKD0dipGUlq4mlGjzxyJaHv6dAExe6+mw== =MrzY -END PGP SIGNATURE-
