How about backporting a newer serf instead so you don't have to lose the functionality? As long as the build dependencies and dependencies are versioned properly (and you know they already are) then everything will just work at build time and run time. The BPO buildd's are also smart enough to deal with it. It looks like it backports cleanly with no changes. (BTW if you run into a reason why the package doesn't build or run because it needs a versioned build-dep/dep to the backport and also file a bug on the package to have it added) Yes, that would be pretty easy to do. Previous 1.6.x lenny-backports did not require the updated serf, though. Not sure if it'a a good thing to introduce a new run-time dependency at this point in time. * Build-depend on libdb4.6-dev, suggest db4.6-util. * Build-depend on openjdk-6-jdk instead of gcj-jdk. * Depend on openjdk-6-jre-headless instead of gij. I think these probably make more sense than trying to backport all that stuff (assuming everything still works OK with the older versions). Well, that's backports.org policy. Admittedly not the OpenJDK part, but the libdb4.6 bit. One blends in with the stable run-time environment. * control: Fix version control URLs. I wouldn't bother fixing these for the backport. OK, but then again the backport changes are in a different branch than the testing source. Moreover, the bpo50+1 version control URLs were wrong. And I had to touch debian/control anyway. So there :) Dear mentors and backporters, here's another attempt at soliciting sponsorship for my update to the Subversion package in lenny-backports.

RFS: rsplib-2.7.4 (implementation of the IETF RSerPool framework and example applications)
Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for my package rsplib. RSPLIB is the Open Source implementation (GPLv3) of the IETF's new framework for Reliable Server Pooling (RSerPool), which is described in RFC 5351 to RFC 5356. If you a looking for a Grid compution solution which is simple, easy to setup and mostly self- configuring, you are probably looking for RSerPool! The RSerPool framework provides lightweight protocols and functionalities for the management of server pools and sessions between users and pools. In particular, RSerPool can be used for highly available applications and for load distribution and load balancing in server pools. Its API is simple to use and understand, making the development of own distributed applications very easy. Details on RSerPool and the RSPLIB implementation can be found on the project's website: http://tdrwww.iem.uni-due.de/dreibholz/rserpool/ . A detailed introduction to the IETF RSerPool framework and the RSPLIB implementation can be found in http://duepublico.uni-duisburg- essen.de/servlets/DerivateServlet/Derivate-16326/Dre2006-final.pdf . * Package name: rsplib Version : 2.7.4-1 Upstream Author : Thomas Dreibholz dre...@iem.uni-due.de * URL : http://tdrwww.iem.uni-due.de/dreibholz/rserpool/ * License : GPL, version 3 Section : net It builds these binary packages: libcpprspserver-dev - headers of the C++ RSerPool client/server API library libcpprspserver2 - C++ RSerPool client/server API library librsplib-dev - headers of the RSerPool client/server API library rsplib librsplib2 - RSerPool client/server API library for load distribution and rsplib-fgp-cfgfiles - RSerPool Fractal Generator Service example input files rsplib-registrar - RSerPool Registrar service rsplib-services - RSerPool example services rsplib-tools - RSerPool test tools The package appears to be lintian clean.

Unfortunately, I can't sponsor your upload, but the packaging looks fine
at a first brief look (I have not yet tried to compile it---I am reading
the packaging side of things for the moment).
I would just suggest that you add a line to the control file putting a
Provides: pdf-reader and adding something like the update-mime stuff
to register it with the system, so that it is picked up for pdf files.
You can see an example of this with, say, xpdf and the documentation of
update-mime(8).
Otherwise, that's a good job. Thanks.

How does zathura compare to apvlv? zathura has an active upstream whereas apvlv's upstream only seems to fix bugs and stopped working on new features. (I stopped all the new features developing of apvlv and started to fix its bugs from now. [1]). Furthermore zathura's auto completion seems much more advanced than apvlv's.

Other than that, the packaging seems sane.

My pending RFSs (xpdf, ushare, protoaculous, gordon, checksec)
Hi, I have the following packages currently prepared and am waiting for review by interested sponsors. Some of these have been pending since December 2009). xpdf (http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/x/xpdf): - I adopted this package a few months ago since it needed a security-minded maintainer, and I have made extensive changes with respect to forward security supportability (including making use of poppler) and some useful minor changes as well. See: http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2010/06/msg00030.html checksec (http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/checksec): - I've learned that there is already a similar script in the hardening-includes package. I'm waiting to hear back whether this or the existing script (or both) would be better to include. See: http://bugs.debian.org/587295 ushare (http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/u/ushare): - I haven't heard any comments with respect to this package. It is however lintian-clean and works for me. See: http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2010/06/msg00390.html gordon (http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/gordon): - It seems there is some question whether debian should be supporting proof of concept code. I personally don't see any harm in doing so. See: http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2010/05/msg00177.html protoaculous (http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/protoaculous) - This package is a bit odd since it just compresses existing functionality provided by other packages. However, it is embedded in various other debian source packages such as citadel-webcit, so it should really be provided as a shared resource. See: http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2009/12/msg00408.html, http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2010/05/msg00178.html alien-arena - Success story: I have a regular sponsor for this package, and its been a very collaborative/easy process. I've done 4 or 5 uploads so far. I've been doing a lot of work, but haven't seen much in the way of sponsorship. I'm wondering what I should be doing differently?
