You could just not redirect stdout (same as stderr).

Hi!

 Is there anyone available to sponsor my NMU from 2011-10-27?

I'm sorry, but personally I don't like to sponsor your NMU.

Some of the reasons are:

* Only fixing a wishlist bug, nothing else
* The wishlisht bug is a new version not detailing why the new version
is needed
* No apparent consent of the maintainer for the NMU
* Not a minimal NMU, changing other stuff, too
* Python package, I'm not really familiar with


However, given that:
a) There was only _one_ maintainer upload
b) This upload was 9 month ago
c) The upload was at that point already outdated (as 0.8 was released in
February according to the homepage)
d) Your (wishlist) bug was without answer for over three month
e) You say the maintainer is unresponsive
f) You seem to have an interest in the package


Have you considered taking over maintenance of the package, probably in
the python packaging team (which might help you find new sponsors)?


Best regards,
  Alexander

That's all right. The default is no, so you won't see such daemon
messages when implemented properly, but that's no problem. By sourcing
/lib/init/vars.sh you not only get these variables in a predictable
manner, but also proper site-local settings, as the script you mentioned
also sources:

# Source conffile
if [ -f /etc/default/rcS ]; then

Thus, in /etc/default/rcS you can make init scripts more verbose if you
want to.

... now uses pkg-php-tools. I didn't update the debian version, I hope thats 
fine that way.

 Also, it'd be great if you were trying to have your package

 working on your side only,
 and have your PEAR package sent to the Git repository on Alioth (in
 /git/pkg-php there's already quite a bunch of PEAR modules...).

I already joined the mailinglist there and enjoy the spam that comes in there 
every day ;-). I did however file a join-request on their Alioth homepage. I 
can only hope they approve the request.

 Besides that, I don't think you need debian/dirs, and debian/README.Debian
 doesn't document anything useful.

They were leftovers and are now removed.

 Last, why did you choose GPL-3+ for your packaging work, when upstream has
 chosen a more relaxed BSD 2 clause?

Because I think its a good license. Is that a problem? I am happy to choose 
something different or the same as the package, if there are any customs or

That being said, I still look for a sponsor for that package! ;-)

Hi Alexander,

2011/12/9 Alexander Reichle-Schmehl toli...@debian.org:
 I'm sorry, but personally I don't like to sponsor your NMU.
Makes me sad ;) (joking)

 Some of the reasons are:

 * Only fixing a wishlist bug, nothing else
 * The wishlisht bug is a new version not detailing why the new version
 is needed

I maintain the nautilus-image-manipulator package, which uses
python-poster to upload files to a website. However there was a bug in
python-poster 0.7.0 which I reported and which got fixed in 0.8.0. N I
M's source code currently contains a hard copy of python-poster 0.8.0,
and would like to get rid of it and use the dedicated Debian package
as a dependency instead (reducing duplication of code/bugs/etc).
See [minor] bug 648030 [0]

 * No apparent consent of the maintainer for the NMU
As pointed to by David, maintainer suggests NMU.

 * Not a minimal NMU, changing other stuff, too
This package only has the latest version and addresses the Lintian
helper-templates-in-copyright error and the
out-of-date-standards-version warning.

 * Python package, I'm not really familiar with
I get that ;)

 Have you considered taking over maintenance of the package, probably in
 the python packaging team (which might help you find new sponsors)?

I'm not fundamentally against taking over maintenance of the package,
but I'm still very new to Debian packaging (not a DM or DD). Would
that be a problem?
Also, how is the taking over maintenance part done in a diplomatic
way with regards to the current maintainer?

Thanks,
+Emilien

I gave it a quick look:

+  * debian/control:
+- Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.2

This is not appropriate for an NMU.

+- Added Vcs-Browser and Vcs-Hg, removed Vcs-Bzr

Uh? This is incorrect. Vcs-* fields are supposed to point to Debian 
packaging repository, not upstream repository. 


+  * debian/copyright:
+- Conform to DEP-5: Machine-readable debian/copyright

This is not appropriate for an NMU.

+  * debian/watch:
+- Add `debian uupdate` after the URL

Heavens forbid!

+- Remove comments from helper tool

This is not appropriate for an NMU.

Hi Jakub,

If I understand it correctly none of the changes I've made are
acceptable for an NMU. That's fine by me, as l'm just trying to get a
newer version that is free of the bug due to which I have to duplicate
code. If fixing part of the Lintian warnings are not fit for a NMU,
I'll gladly not do it ;)

Just a question though:
 +  * debian/watch:
 +    - Add `debian uupdate` after the URL

 Heavens forbid!

Could you please elaborate? Do you mean that this is not appropriate
for a NMU, or in general?
Motivation for this change: footnote 83 [0] of the Debian New
Maintainers' Guide:

If the uscan command downloads the updated source but it does not run
the uupdate command, you should correct the debian/watch file to have
debian uupdate at the end of the URL.

Thanks for looking at it, though!

Hello everybody,

it's been silent, but I would appreciate more review or even sponsoring. 
So, anybody? :-)


In the meantime, there have been upstream updates, so the version is

Thanks in advance,

Dear mentors,

after a first review round, the package is now lintian --pedantic

* Package name : nuitka
Version : 0.3.16pre3-1
Upstream Author : Kay Hayen kayha...@gmx.de
* URL : http://nuitka.net
* License : GPLv3
Section : python

It builds those binary packages:

nuitka - Python compiler with full language support and CPython compatible

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

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

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

dget -x
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/n/nuitka/nuitka_0.3.16pre3-1.dsc

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me. I believe it
relatively is simple package. No real compile time dependencies. Pure
Python.

At run time, it uses g++ and Scons, without the user noticing. There is
a inline copy of Scons, which is removed from the binary build, and it
has been reviewed on Debian Python list somewhat and here already in a
first round.

I am willing to be a good upstream, and have so far made all known
modifications to fit better into Debian.

Thanks in advance,

it does in Debian in the license of its choice if it's DFSG free, but I
just feel
weird to have just a few files needed for the packaging to be more
restrictive
than the ones from the original authors itself.

Said in another way: your choice of licensing is legally valid inside
Debian,
but it wouldn't be mine. I'd adopt the license of upstream, especially
if it's
the BSD license. IMHO, software with multiple licenses are a pain when
writing debian/copyright files.

 That being said, I still look for a sponsor for that package! ;-)

Please ping me in few days if I didn't get time to review again and nobody
else stood up (I'm going to sleep now, I'm too tired to start packaging
reviews ...).

Thomas

Hi Jakub,

 * Emilien Klein emilien+deb...@klein.st, 2011-12-09, 16:22:

 If I understand it correctly none of the changes I've made are acceptable
 for an NMU. That's fine by me, as l'm just trying to get a newer version
 that is free of the bug due to which I have to duplicate code.


 I'd happy to sponsor the NMU if it fixed this one thing.

I've restarted the NMU from scratch, this time only changing
debian/changelog. It's uploaded to mentors:
http://mentors.debian.net/package/python-poster

It would be great if you could have a look at it.

FYI I've tested it by removing the hard copy of poster in
nautilus-image-manipulator and changing the import of poster like
this:
from poster.encode import multipart_encode
from poster.streaminghttp import register_openers

instead of:
from nautilus_image_manipulator.upload.poster.encode import multipart_encode
from nautilus_image_manipulator.upload.poster.streaminghttp import
register_openers

and all works fine.

Thanks for your time and comments,
+Emilien

Your *.diff.gz modifies files it shouldn't:

$ lsdiff -z python-poster_0.8.1-0.1.diff.gz | grep -v /debian
python-poster-0.8.1/poster.egg-info/PKG-INFO

But, since it was caused by a latent bug in the existing package (not 
removing files that are modified at build time), I'll leave it that way.


I uploaded the package to DELAYED/2. Please post full debdiff between 
0.7.0-1.1 and 0.8.1-0.1 to the bug log.

 Dear mentors,

 I am looking for a sponsor for my package openssn.

  * Package name    : openssn
  Version         : 0.8-1
  Upstream Author : Jesse Smith jessefrgsm...@yahoo.ca
  * URL             : http://openssn.sourceforge.net/
  * License         : GPL2 (code), CC0 (data)
  Section         : games

 Description: modern submarine tactical simulator
  OpenSSN is a submarine simulation (subsim) which tries to emulate the
 behaviour of modern submarines. The player is placed in command of a
 submarine and is able to move about in a deep ocean environment.

 It builds those binary packages (which are lintian and pbuilder clean):

  openssn    - modern submarine tactical simulator
  openssn-data - modern submarine tactical simulator (data)
  openssn-dbg - modern submarine tactical simulator (debug)

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

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

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

  dget -x 
 http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/o/openssn/openssn_0.8-1.dsc

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

 Kind regards,

 Vincent Cheng

Just giving this a ping after 3 months. I'm still looking for a
sponsor for openssn; an updated package is accessible with:

$ dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/o/openssn/openssn_1.1-1.dsc

Thanks in advance!

Vincent

no it is not. Jakub meant to file a bug denoting your NMU to the BTS.
You can use the nmudiff to get the idea. #610114 [1] is a random example
of what we mean too. In your case you shouldn't be filing a new bug
though, but reply to the existing one you are closing.

Just to make sure we're on the same page: the message you replied to

IMHO the coloring of the paste eases the reading, but there is also a
download link at the bottom if someone needs a physical copy on it's
computer.

This is my first NMU, so I want to make sure I'm doing this right!

Except that posting the actual debdiff is required by policy, pastes
on p.d.n are removed after some time (I think you can choose it at
creation time), so please post the diff on the bug report (using
nmudiff as suggested by Arno, f.e.). If someone need colored diff,
there's always colordiff :)

There is currently zero automatic integration between debian-mentors

download the old .dsc file unless you update the thread.
