Have you discussed this with the pine/pine-tracker maintainer? The idea so far has been that until alpine reaches the stability of pine and the features of the Debian pine packages (which include some patches that I'm talking to the maintainers of for alpine support and licensing permission), we would keep both alpine and pine. I haven't talked about transition packages because this step hasn't come yet, but I hope we will talk about that soon. I'm definitely working on the above-mentioned issues with alpine, and many Debianites have helpfully filed Debian bugs against my package that have gone to help upstream improve the program. -- Asheesh.

Hi, Kevin Coyner escribió: On Mon, Aug 20, 2007 at 08:43:13PM -0400, Juan Angulo Moreno wrote.. How was Bug #279342 fixed? It is not apparent from the changelog, and running interdiff between the diff files doesn't show anything new in that respect. I closed bug because when metacam was updated of version 0.6-1 to the 1.2-1 bug he was not present (you can verify installing it metacam, unloading the following image that was taken by a S60 Canon Camera: http://farm1.static.flickr.com/112/253352200_b64ab0a57a_o.jpg, will be able to notice that there is not segfault). O.K. Perhaps you might want to mention in the changelog that the bug is being closed because upstream addressed it in a prior release. Ok, Perfect. In the next days I will repair the package and upload it again. O.K. I'll look at it again then. BTW, I went to the homepage you have listed for metacam, and was not able to download a source copy. Do you have a different webpage for downloading the source? Software does not have another mirror where can download the source code. Could eliminate the file debian/watch so that it looks for updates of software?

That doesn't mean necessarily that there can't be a Debian package for it. But sooner or later someone will find and file a Debian bug against the source code. And while you can patch it in the Debian package, it is better to get those fixes in upstream. Have you tried to contact the upstream authors to see if they care about the project and making it publically available again? If not, perhaps you want to take over upstream and host it at SF or someplace like that?

The homepage *recommendation* is available here: http://www.debian.org/doc/developers-reference/ch-best-pkging-practices.en.html#s-bpp-upstream-info It isn't mandatory to use two spaces followed by Homepage: http://somesite I have the impression that when we say You need to use this on your package, people (mainly new people) think that this is the correct thing to do (while there isn't (yet) a consensus about the homepage field). People looking at this will think that it's needed to use this format, while in fact it isn't. It's just a recommendation. There is nothing saying Use like this because all other formats are wrong. There is a recent discussion about this topic here: http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2007/08/msg00805.html In short: it's not wrong to use Homepage with one space, or use URL or whatever.

Description: grid-entry handwriting input panel
CellWriter is a grid-entry natural handwriting input panel.
As you write characters into the cells, your writing is instantly
recognized at the character level. When you press 'Enter' on the panel,
the input you entered is sent to the currently focused application as
if typed on the keyboard.
.
* Writer-dependent, learns your handwriting for reliable recognition
* Correcting preprocessor algorithms account for digitizer noise,
differing stroke order, direction, and number of strokes
* Unicode support enables you to write in your native language
.
Homepage: http://risujin.org/cellwriter
Okay, I've made the changes and reuploaded the package. I suppose it's
still an open question whether the _program_ itself is following Debian
guidelines.
Is my package ready for a sponsor?
