Re: RFS: mgen
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?

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!

While you're at it, please consider providing a DEP-5 formatted debian/copyright [1], and include a debian/watch file as well. 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.

Re: RFS: fizsh
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.

Re: RFS: lucene3
[Forwarded due to not hitting Reply to all] 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 :) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

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.
