RFS: hiawatha

2009-07-07 Thread Hugo Leisink

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package hiawatha.

* Package name: hiawatha
 Version : 6.15
 Upstream Author : Hugo Leisink h...@leisink.net
* URL : http://www.hiawatha-webserver.org/
* License : GPL
 Section : web

It builds these binary packages:
hiawatha   - Advanced and secure webserver for Unix

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/h/hiawatha
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable 
main contrib non-free
- dget 
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/h/hiawatha/hiawatha_6.15.dsc


I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me. 'Why another 
webserver?' you might think. Well, I wasn't satisfied with the other 
open source webservers (Apache, Lighttpd, nginx, Cherokee, etc), because 
they are too big, have a non-intuitive or even complex configuration 
syntax, have severe security issues (even as we speak), are not stable 
or not actively maintained. With Hiawatha, I focus on building a secure 
webserver which is easy to configure. You don't have to be a CGI or HTTP 
expert in order to get Hiawatha running. It's really easy when you have 
a simple website. When you want the more fancy stuff (CGI in a jail, 
XSLT, URL rewriting) things are still quite easy in Hiawatha. Talking 
about URL rewriting you think Apache has good URL rewriting 
abilities? Wait till you see what Hiawatha can do. Afraid for XSS, CSRF 
and the recent Apache DoS exploit? Not anymore when you switch to 
Hiawatha. I hope this makes at least one of you interested in my project 
:) Thanks!


Kind regards
Hugo Leisink

 First of all, have you tried to contact him directly? In my experience it

Uhm... no, I haven't. I will try :)

 If he does not show interest for his package, then unless you want to adopt 
 it,
 I would rather recommend that you file a request for removal. If for more than
OK. I will do it.
Thanks a lot!

Regards,

I would add that one interesting thing about this game is that it is
written using the rather new digital mars D language.

Kind regards

I am not a DD and can't upload for you, but there is some work to do
before this package is ready for sponsorship.

This probably shouldn't be a Debian native package, see Martin Palmer's
FAQ [1]. Please turn it into a non-native package and add a watch file.

You must acknowledge the Derelict Developers in your copyright file.

Please use lintian. It gives the following output when run with '-IE
--pedantic':

W: guisterax source: out-of-date-standards-version 3.8.0 (current is
3.8.2)
P: guisterax source: source-contains-prebuilt-binary guisterax

You need to provide the source for this binary before Debian can
distribute it, if I understand correctly.

I: guisterax: arch-dep-package-has-big-usr-share 3780kB 85%

You should probably consider splitting your package into two binaries:
guisterax and guisterax-data. Making guisterax-data architecture
independent reduces load on the mirror network, because it can be shared
between architectures.

P: guisterax: copyright-refers-to-symlink-license usr/share/common-licenses/GPL
I: guisterax: desktop-entry-contains-encoding-key 
/usr/share/applications/guisterax.desktop:3 Encoding
I: guisterax: extended-description-is-probably-too-short

You can see full descriptions of these at http://lintian.debian.org/

You must close your ITP bug [2] in your changelog entry. If you don't
have a bug, file one. By loose convention, the first entry is usually
'* Initial release (Closes: #nn)'.

 As of policy 3.8.2, you should change section to php.

Important mistake on my side :S

 
 Bumping  debhelper  compatibility to  7  for  a  package using  CDBS
 is useless. As  opposed to Standards-Version,  there is no  benefit
 bumping debhelper compatibility.

It's right too; i have left these changes thougt.

 
 Short description should not start with a capitalize letter.

I have modified this and re-uploaded the packages on mentors, thanks for
your review.
