Done. - I think you should build depend on python-dev instead of python-all-dev. python-all-dev will make sure that all supported python version are installed. correct me if I am wrong. python-dev is also ok in our case. I got misleaded by overlooking at the code of the resulting package. Looking again, I see it's only a hack to be able to run modified version from the source tree. Maybe you should remove that. It's useless in the installed version, and adds python 2.4 paths even when using python 2.5, which could have bad side effects. Anyways, python-gnome2 only comes for python 2.4... Ok. python-dev as dependency. I'm not confortable with sponsoring a package using cdbs, but if nobody steps in, I will, since I'm very interested in having this in the archive.

Re: RFS: libsnmp-mib-compiler-perl (updated package)
Hi Deepak, I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 0.06-1.2 of my package libsnmp-mib-compiler-perl. If you are the new maintainer, the version should be 0.06-2. Please also acknowledge the old NMU. Other comments: 1. the license states: You may modify this module as you wish, but if you redistribute a modified version, please attach a note listing the modifications you have made. In this case, i would *stongly* suggest to use a patch system like quilt or dpatch to document the modifications from upstream. For now, it's only MANIFEST.SKIP, but it's still a modification. 2. At least on sparc, a pbuilder build fails: Warning: prerequisite Data::Compare 0 not found. t/agentcapabilitiesCan't locate Data/Compare.pm in @INC Obviously, a build dependency on libdata-compare-perl is missing. 3.

Do you mean how can you reverse the change to satisfy the policy
requirement that the sources, after clean, are indistinguishable from
the sources before? Well, you can simply run the sed on only the
./debian/$package/{,usr/}{,s}bin/* since the whole installation
tree[s] are removed anyway. I think any build-time munging of scripts
consistent with strict interpretation of this section of the policy
will have to act on ./debian/$package/ only or do something much less
elegant.

RFS: vbrfix -- corrects MP3 files that have incorrect VBR information
Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for my package vbrfix. * Package name: vbrfix Version : 0.24-1 Upstream Author : William Pye [EMAIL PROTECTED] * URL : http://www.willwap.co.uk/Programs/vbrfix.php * License : GPL Section : sound It builds these binary packages: vbrfix - corrects MP3 files that have incorrect VBR information Here is the long description of the package: - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - In an average song there are points that require high quality and points that require low quality (i.e. silence). Instead of having the whole file at 160kbps CBR (Constant Bit Rate), we can use VBR (Variable Bit Rate). This allows us to have say 96kbps at points not requiring high quality and 192kbps when we need it: resulting in an overall smaller but higher quality MP3. Unfortunately, the problem is that many MP3 MP3 decoders estimate the time of a MP3 file based on the first bitrate they find and the filesize. This means that the prediction used by such decoders is wildly wrong with VBR encoded files and, as a result, you can get fairly random times. As most songs start with silence you usually get the song length being shown as much longer than it should be. Also when you jump through a file encoded in VBR, 50% through the file is not 50% through the song. A VBR null frame is placed at the beginning of the file to tell the MP3 player information about the song length and indexing through the song. The problem arises because some poor encoders don't produce this null frame or do so incorrectly and this is what Vbrfix attempts to fix. Vbrfix can also fix other problems with MP3s as it deletes all non-MP3 content (other than tags you state you want to keep). It can also help when merging two VBR MP3s together with a merging tool and then needing a newly calculated VBR null frame. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - The package appears to be lintian clean and the upload would fix the bug #434465, which is an ITP bug.

Re: RFS: adonthell (updated package)
Hello,
My apologies; I have already found a sponsor, but it seems I forgot to
say so on the mailing list.
I don't see this new version on the mentors site. All that's there is
version 0.3.4.cvs.20050813-4.
Any news regarding that package? Or should the one available on mentors
be sponsored?
I'd got the naming schemes mixed up, so the first package was
superseded by 0.3.4.cvs.20050813-4.
Also, I would call the game data wastesedge -- similar to the way
upstream does, and have it provide a virtual adonthell-game or somesuch.
AIUI, wastesedge will be only one of many future games that will be
created as the engine matures.
Yes, especially, since you seem to need to know, what game data you've
installed to play the game.
Perhaps it would even be a good idea, to ship a wrapper script calling
adontell wastesedge?
I have considered renaming the package for pretty much the same
reasons. There is a wrapper script already, though
('adonthell-wastesedge').
Thanks for your comments, and sorry again for the confusion.
Regards,
Anthony Chaumas-Pellet
