RFS: tesseract

2007-08-28 Thread Jeffrey Ratcliffe
Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 2.00-1
of tesseract-ocr, plus the six language packages, tesseract-eng,
tesseract-deu, tesseract-nld, tesseract-spa, tesseract-ita,
tesseract-fra

It builds these binary packages:
tesseract - The well-known OCR engine first developed by HP and now
taken over by Google

The package appears to be lintian clean, apart from the fact that
upstream has left a .svn directory in the tar.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/tesseract
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
main contrib non-free
- dget 
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/tesseract/tesseract_2.00-1.dsc

The languages packages are:

- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/tesseract-deu
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
main contrib non-free
- dget 
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/tesseract-deu/tesseract-deu_2.00-1.dsc

- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/tesseract-eng

- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/tesseract-nld

main contrib non-free
- dget 
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/tesseract-nld/tesseract-nld_2.00-1.dsc

- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/tesseract-spa
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
main contrib non-free
- dget 
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/tesseract-spa/tesseract-spa_2.00-1.dsc

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.

Regards

Jeff Ratcliffe

 Dear mentors and games team,

 So you think having it debian native is a good thing?

 It builds these binary packages:
 counter-strike - Valve's counter-strike video game
 counter-strike-source - Valve's counter-strike-source video game
 day-of-defeat - Valve's day-of-defeat video game
 day-of-defeat-source - Valve's day-of-defeat-source video game
 half-life  - Valve's half-life video game
 half-life2 - Valve's half-life2 video game
 steam-powered - Valve's steam game content delivery system

 Won't these package names get us into trademark issues?  I'm unsure if
this is a too good idea - and it would require someone having the
original games, otherwise they won't be able to sponsor it.

 So long,
Rhonda

The *must* in the above line is not supported by Debian policy.
So I'll change that to a *should* :-)


And I would change debian/changelog and/or README.Debian-source to  
debian/copyright, where the information about how orig.tar.gz was  
obtained belong.

Re: RFS: steam-powered

2007-08-28 Thread Michael Gilbert
 So you think having it debian native is a good thing?

sure, why not?  the guts of the program are so simple that i don't
think it would really be that useful to set up a website or svn.  in a
sense www.steampowered.com perhaps should be considered the upsteam?
this package is just a wrapper to make steam install and work on
debian rather than windows.

  Won't these package names get us into trademark issues?

the term counter-strike refers to Valve's actual counter-strike game,
so there is no misrepresentation, which is what trademark law is meant
to protect.  besides there are things like the doom, quake2, etc
packages that illustrate that this is ok.  iceweasel came about
because the firefox package was a misrepresentation of firefox
according the mozilla people because parts of the code were changed
that they didn't want.  with this package, the game itself is in no
way modified.

 I'm unsure if this is a too good idea - and it would require someone having 
 the
 original games, otherwise they won't be able to sponsor it.

steam is downloadable for free, and as long as steam works, the games
will work.  the games are launched using command-line arguments to the
steam.exe executable.  for example, counter-strike is launched via
wine steam.exe -applaunch 10, where 10 is the app number for
counter-strike.  if the user doesn't own the game when it is launched
like this, steam will bring up the page for the user to purchase it.
take a look at the scripts, they're very simple and straightforward
wrappers.
