Hi Kilian,

thanks very much for your detailed explanations. They cleared some things
up that I had misunderstood.

I've rebuilt from scratch with latest debhelper and uploaded to mentors.
Would you mind taking another look and telling me if it's technically ok now?

 Regarding this upstream license you received by email I wonder whether the
 third paragraph is entirely DFSG-free. Have you asked for recommendations at
 debian-legal? Or is this license already used by any other package in
 Debian?

I don't think this license has been used before, I'll ask on debian-legal if
the license qualifies for distribution in Debian.

Thanks again very much for your help!

Ok, I'm working on this now.

 Also, I'm not sure if you've taken a look at bug #522196 [2] yet (I'm
 guessing you haven't, otherwise you wouldn't have filed a new ITP for
 Icecat); are you willing to maintain Icecat and to backport patches
 and fix security issues for all versions of Icecat in Debian,
 including future stable/oldstable releases? This can and will be a
 large amount of work for a package like Icecat, although a lot of the
 security-related work you'll have to do will have already been done by
 the Iceweasel maintainers.

I searched icecat in www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/ and wnpp.debian.net/
and found nothing. Now, I know why :-)
Yes, it's a lot of work, and I'll try to do it the best possible.

Thanks for all.

yes, that's certainly possible, although we as distributor tend to
refrain from such changes and let upstream decide how to call their
programs. As you are upstream yourself, you might be able just to rename it.

The problem with /usr/bin/news is its generic name in a globally shared
name space. In fact there is a already /usr/bin/news in the package
sysnews making yours providing it as well a policy violation. Please see
Debian policy § 10.1 [1] in general and examples like [2][3] for a

RFS: pysolfc (replacement for removed package: pysol)

2011-08-20 Thread Bernhard Reiter
Hello mentors, 

I am looking for a sponsor for my package pysolfc.

* Package name: pysolfc
  Version : 2.0-1
* URL : http://pysolfc.sourceforge.net/
* License : GPL
* Programming Lang: Python
* Description : A Python solitaire game collection

It builds the binary package: pysolfc

To access further information about this package, please visit the following 
URL:

  http://mentors.debian.net/package/pysolfc

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

  dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/pysolfc/pysolfc_2.0-1.dsc

The package appears to be lintian and pbuilder clean. A previous version
has already been included in Ubuntu.

The upload would fix this bug: 519752

My motivation for maintaining this package is:
Its (unmaintained) predecessor pysol dropped out of debian a while ago;
pysolfc is considered one of the best versatile solitaire collections.
It is already part of Ubuntu, but I'd rather maintain it via Debian.

Other relevant location(s):
- Git: git://git.debian.org/git/pkg-games/pysolfc.git
- Git-Browser: http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-games/pysolfc.git

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

I've also prepared a transitional package pysol, found at:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/package/pysol
- dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/pysol/pysol_10.dsc

There are also supplementary cardsets packages in the following locations which 
I'd glady see
reviewed:

pysolfc-cardsets:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/package/pysolfc-cardsets
- dget -x

Re: RFS: fizsh

2011-08-20 Thread Guido van Steen
Dear mentors,

I would like to provide some more information on FIZSH:

FIZSH is intended to be an easy front-end to ZSH, so that it can serve
as a first shell for starting developers and UNIX lovers. Many of them
are drawn to BASH, because it is the default shell on many systems.
Some may try ZSH, but they may give up after they see the message You
are seeing this message because you have no zsh startup files.

FIZSH is meant to give such people an easier start. It provides a
similar interface as FISH, which aims to be an easy shell as well
(http://fishshell.com). Like FISH, FIZSH provides syntax-highlighting
and an intuitively appealing history-search widget. These widgets are
maintained at https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting and
https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-history-substring-search,
respectively. (I am a major contributor to the FIZSH's history-search
widget.)

Unlike FISH, FIZSH accepts Bourne compatible syntax. It inherits this
feature from ZSH. This enables users of FIZSH to use many snippets
from the internet. This feature of snippets in Bourne compatible
syntax is not available to people who use FISH.

My intention for writing FIZSH, is definitely not to provide an
competitor to ZSH. The goal of FIZSH is to make life easier for people
who have not yet managed to tweak their ZSH configuration. These
people may later migrate to ZSH, and add FIZSH's and possibly other
useful ZSH features to their startup scripts.

Also, note that the FIZSH package does not at all interfere with files
installed by ZSH. FIZSH deploys its own configuration files. So it
will never mess up someone's existing ZSH configuration.

The uploaded package is more or less lintian clean. There is one
message about hyphens in the man page. It says they might be intended
as minus signs. However, the hyphens used are intended to be actual
hyphens. I will clarify this by using \(hy in the next release
upstream.

Best wishes,

Guido van Steen

 used anywhere.

that's where you see that i looked at other code  how it was done.

some more nitpicking on my own code:
my patch adds commented out code (basically replacing my original
find_library('assimp') call by a hardcoded libassimp.so.2.
how bad is this considered, style-wise?

RFS: lucene3

2011-08-20 Thread Mat Scales
Hello mentors!

I am looking for a sponsor for my package lucene3.

 * Package name: lucene3
   Version : 3.3.0+dfsg-1
   Upstream Author : The Apache Software Foundation
 * URL : http://lucene.apache.org/java/
 * License : Apache 2
   Section : java

To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:

  http://mentors.debian.net/package/lucene3

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

  dget -x 
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/l/lucene3/lucene3_3.3.0+dfsg-1.dsc

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

This package is an incompatible upgrade from the existing lucene2
package, though it was built from scratch rather than updating the
original package. The .changes and .deb files all pass lintian -iI
--pedantic cleanly.

Kind regards,

Mat Scales

You should try to contact directly Debian Java Team on debian-jav@l.d.o for 
Java sponsoring.

Why is your package not based on initial work done by Jan-Pascal van Best ?

Hi Damien, thanks for your time.

 You should try to contact directly Debian Java Team on debian-jav@l.d.o for
 Java sponsoring.

Ah, thanks, I will!

 Why is your package not based on initial work done by Jan-Pascal van Best ?
 svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-java/trunk/lucene3

My first reason was that when I saw that Jan-Pascal had done some
packaging work I went to see what he had done - and the code was gone!
 I now know that this was actually because of a problem with
anonscm.debian.org/viewvc, but it meant that I started my own work
assuming that Jan-Pascal had removed his when he dropped his ITP.

Secondly, when I did find Jan-Pascal's work I noticed that he was
packaging upstream version 3.0.2 (from June 2010) while I had been
working on version 3.3.0 (from July 2011). Most of the work needed
redoing as there have been a lot of changes upstream in between.  I
have done a thorough examination of Jan-Pascal's packaging, however,
and noted anything that my package is missing. There wasn't a lot but
what there was no longer cleanly applies so they have become TODO
items. Most of the rest is simply not relevant any more.

Finally, I admit, there is a certain amount of personal taste
involved. Jan-Pascal's solution is quite a complicated CDBS affair
that doesn't reflect current policy because it is a direct increment
of a package that has been maintained for 6 years, while my own is a
pretty simple pure debhelper package that is quite clean. A new
maintainer of a new package seems like the perfect opportunity to
bring the package up to date.

Phew, I'm not sure any one expected such a long answer, even me :)

 So the order would be 1~dfsg   1  1+dfsg.
 
 You usually use ~ for smaller pre versions and similar, where you have
 0.9pre1, and later a 0.9 which should be a higher version number.
 However, I can't think of a scenario, where ~dfsg makes sense.

Hi all,

When I remove some files from a source package, I sometimes use ~dfsg, in the
case their copyright holder later relicenses them without Upstream making a new
release.  It is then possible to package the original upstream sources under
their original version number.

Have a nice Sunday,
