If you have an update for up-imapproxy (which I see is one of 'yours'),
I'm willing to take a look at it. Send me an URL to the .dsc and I'll
check it out tonight.

It may help to actually list the packages you're looking for sponsors for.

RFS: tcpser (updated package)

2008-02-04 Thread Peter Collingbourne
Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my updated package tcpser.

* Package name: tcpser
  Version : 1.0rc12-1
  Upstream Author : Jim Brain [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* URL : http://www.jbrain.com/pub/linux/serial
* License : GPL
  Section : net

It builds these binary packages:
tcpser - emulate a Hayes compatible modem

The package is lintian/pbuilder clean, except for a
source-contains-svn-control-dir warning which I have been advised
to ignore.

The package can be found in the collab-maint bzr repository at:

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

Thanks,

RFS: QA Upload - imlib - Two bug fixes, including RC bug

Hi folks,

I've uploaded a version of imlib that fixes an important and RC bug.  If 
someone has time to review/sponsor.


I'm aware of the two lintian warnings about the soname not matching the 
package name but I didn't want to introduce that large of a change as it 
would end up in NEW.

RFR: mertious

2008-02-04 Thread Dylan R. E. Moonfire
Salutations.

I'm requesting a review of a package I created for `mertious`:

* Package name: mertious
  Version : 1.2
  Upstream Author : Lancer-X/ASCEAI
* URL : http://www.asceai.net/meritous/
* License : GPL (version 3)
  Programming Lang: C
  Description : action-adventure dungeon crawl game
Far below the surface of the planet is a secret.  A place of limitless
power. Those that seek to control such a utopia will soon bring an end
to themselves. Seeking an end to the troubles that plague him, PSI
user MERIT journeys into the hallowed Orcus Dome in search of answers.

Mertious is a action-adventure game with simple controls but a
challenge to find a balance of power verses recovery time during
real-time battles. Set in a fractually-generated world, the player can
explore thousands of rooms in search of powerful artifacts, tools to
help them, and to eventually free the Orcus Dome from evil.

Repository (386, I'll get amd64 tomorrow):

  deb http://mfgames.com/debian unstable main
  deb-src http://mfgames.com/debian unstable main

I use the quilt patching since the people in #debian-games said it was
the preferred for Debian games. I also made it +dfsg since I cleaned up
permissions (eveything was exectuable in the tarball) and newlines.

Cheers and Thanks,
Dylan

Not that I know. You probably want to check the queues on buildd.net,

 to ask for my packages to be built but before I would like to see if

mipsel has a huge backlog, and ISTR that mips too. Nothing related to

Hi all,

thanks for all your ansers.

At the beginning I thought that the problem was that the buildds were
ignoring some packages, but finally it is only seems that they are not
keeping up.

So in conclusion, we have nothing else to do than hoping that the
buildds will restart keeping up some day, or is it time to ask on
debian-release that packages not up to date on these arches are allowed
to migrate in testing anyway ?

 Or you could look for a suitable mips machine that could be used to
 help the existing buildd's!
 
 I did ask around here but no one seemed to have one.

(Off-topic, but anyway...)

Having a mipsel machine would help with debugging many things as
well. For example, the most recent are:

lam FTBFSing on mipsel due to a gcc bug:
http://experimental.ftbfs.de/fetch.php?pkg=lamver=7.1.2-1.1arch=mipselstamp=1202167930file=logas=raw

lapack FTBFSing on mips due to a mysterious reason:
http://experimental.ftbfs.de/fetch.php?pkg=lapackver=3.1.1-0.2arch=mipsstamp=1202168381file=logas=raw

If I get enough money later in life, I'm definitely buying one of
these machines, _just_ for testing out stuff and doing a dput/dupload
of packages built on them. Would look awesome to stand apart with a
mips(el) or s390 upload, when others are doing only
source+{i386,amd64}. :-)

Maybe libthai0/libthai-data shouldn't have any docs (README/TODO/etc)

should go in the -dev package and the -doc package.

Good to see you are using a symbols file, mole says you need different
symbols files for different arches:

http://qa.debian.org/cgi-bin/mole/seedsymbols?pkgname=libthai0

I also note that the seedsymbols script indicates that some functions
have been removed, but the ABI has not been increased.

The -doc package installs stuff to /usr/share/doc/libthai0-doc,
shouldn't it be /usr/share/doc/libthai-doc?

Your shlibs says = 0.1.7 but the max version in your symbols file is 0.1.6.

I'm not sure what the machine-readable copyright proposal says, but I
expected to see copies of the this is GPL blurbs from the source
code in debian/copyright

I don't see filenames in the Licence line in the copyright proposal.

I think there are supposed to be commas between the authors and each
author should have their own copyright years?

Why do you copy config.sub/guess in clean rather than in configure?

CFLAGS doesn't seem to be passed to configure?

Please rewrite the descriptions considering the audience for each of
them. libthai0/libthai-data will always be automatically installed,
libthai-dev will sometimes be automatically installed (build-dep) and
libthai-doc should be only installed by humans. libthai0/-data could
have a one-line description, the amount of info in the -dev and -doc
descriptions should reflect who will be looking for them.

Tip: $(MAKE) -C foo works too

Is fonts/waree simply a copy of Bitstream Vera (which will be removed
from debian)?

Copyright info for debian/babel.sty is a bit unclear.

Including debian/babel.sty alone seems to violate its licence:

  This file may only be distributed together with a copy of the Babel
  system. You may however distribute the Babel system without
  such generated files.

Sounds like it is not source code, but a generated file (DFSG #2).

h, not sure about make -j2 - isn't there a DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS thing for that?
