This will teach you a poem, parts of your text for a play, or basic phrases of a foreign language before you go on holiday.

it's missing and at install time the package wants to install its
logrotate rule file?
- I'd describe the bin programs in the packaeg in the long description
(battery-graph in the paragraph about the graph, and battery-log in

the same paragraph)

- missing, but policy 3.8.0 should its presence in case of patch system
debian/README
- I'd refresh the info in this file a bit
debian/watch
- what about adding one? if it makes sense given the situation; are
you even adopting it upstream?
There is a small issue when running battery-graph and the log file is empty:

They are all pretty simple to fix (the show stopper is dpatch.make
missing) and otherwise the package works fine (at least for the short
time it's running here). Please get back to me once you've uploaded
the package again (no revision bump) to mentors.

Unfortunately the upstream has no site which can be scanned, the current
source file can be downloaded directly from his website but there is no
index.html or Indexes in apache for previous or future source files.
Adopting the upstream is probably the wisest thing to do, rather than
keeping on patching the code via dpatch, probably in the next release I
will do so (it will also depends whether we will get any future bug
report or not)

Yes, I saw this but battery-graph is calling another script and gplot is
reading from stdin, if it's fine for you I'd prefer not to patch this
because I should change the flow of battery-graph and probably getting
the error before sending data to the pipe.

Yet another list statistics for debian-mentors
Hi, as you can read in my lightning talk at DebConf http://people.debian.org/~tille/talks/200808_lightning/ I did some investigation on who is frequently posting on our mailing lists. I now created graphs until end of last year and write a short summary for those lists I regard worth a comment. I'm not CCed to all of this list so if you want to discuss something please keep me in CC. If you want to discuss the results in general just write to debian-project. All graphs and the code that was used to create the graphs are available at http://people.debian.org/~tille/liststats/ If you are interested in a mailing list which was not analysed, just tell me. I was running the scripts on those lists I personally had some interest and those with more than 1000 subscribers. I plan to clean up code and write some doc about it but this will not happen in the next couple of weeks. The graph for this specific list is --- start of mailing list specific part -- http://people.debian.org/~tille/liststats/authorstat_mentors.pdf Guessing from the graph this is a nice list with very active mentors (guessing that people who are frequently posting are mentoring instead or asking questions to mentors ;-)). Keep on the good work! Kind regards Andreas -- http://fam-tille.de -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

RFS: adtool (bugfix)
Hi Cyril adtool/1.3-3 fixes a FTBFS error for porters to GNU/k*BSD as reported in bug #511424, and a tiny fix in debian/rules.
