Bug#659947: RFS: portabase

2012-02-15 Thread Dmitry Smirnov
Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal


Dear mentors,

New package portabase is looking for sponsor.

Portabase is a modern alternative to MobileDB (and to Jfile).

Use case: you're taking water samples and analyse them on spot
with portable colorimeter. Then you enter results to mobile 
version of portabase (I use my Nokia N900). 
Desktop version of this application comes handy to work 
with the data on workstation with full-size screen.

Also Portabase is useful to prepare data for mobile use.

  * sort the rows by any combination of columns, each in ascending or
descending order;
  * add, delete, rearrange, and rename columns at any time;
  * view summary statistics for columns (total, average, min, max, etc.);
  * import data from CSV, XML, and MobileDB files;
  * export data to CSV and XML files;
  * command-line format conversions (to and from XML, from MobileDB);
  * optional data file encryption.

RFS: drwright (2nd try)

2012-02-15 Thread Savvas Radevic
Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package drwright.

* Package name : drwright
Version : 3.2.4-1
Upstream Author :
* URL : http://git.gnome.org/browse/drwright and
http://live.gnome.org/drwright
* License : GPL-2.0+
Section : gnome
Description: Typing monitor to force typing breaks
 It's a program that forces you to take regular breaks to prevent RSI
 (Repetitive Strain Injury). It's similar to workrave.
 .
 It can be found in GNOME control center as typing break. You can specify
the
 work interval (how much time you want to work between breaks) and a break
 interval (how long your break will be). It also allows postponing of
breaks.
 Finally, there is a button to lock the screen (while the break is active)
in
 case you want to step out indefinetely.
 .
 It used to be part of GNOME 2's main core, but is now packaged separately.

Why this package?
It has been requested to be packaged by at least 20 people, see affected
at launchpad bug http://pad.lv/860776 and askubuntu question:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/63999/how-can-i-re-enable-the-typing-break-in-11-10

Extra info:
- It's regularly checked and uploaded at
https://launchpad.net/~drwright/+archive/stable
- Package is Lintian clean, with one override (drwright binary:
desktop-command-not-in-package), since the desktop file runs
gnome-control-center typing-break
- Package is patched to replace OnlyShowIn=GNOME; with NotShowIn=KDE;
(since it depends on gnome-control-center). Also patched to disable it by
default.

It builds these binary packages:

drwright - Typing monitor to force typing breaks

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

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

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

dget -x
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/d/drwright/drwright_3.2.4-1.dsc

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

Bug#658204: RFS: bibtool -- tool for BibTeX database manipulation

 It builds those binary packages:
 
 bibtool- tool for BibTeX database manipulation

I took a look at your package, here are a few comments:

  - debian/preinst has a comment saying it should be removed post-etch;
now seems like it'd be a good time.

  - lintian gives a few warnings:

  P: bibtool source: source-contains-cvs-control-dir regex-0.12/doc/CVS
  P: bibtool source: source-contains-cvs-control-dir regex-0.12/CVS
  P: bibtool source: unversioned-copyright-format-uri 
http://dep.debian.net/deps/dep5

You may want to get in touch with upstream about that. Also, ideally
regex shouldn't be embedded in the source.

  - I'm not sure why you're closing bugs #291134 and #187255 in the
changelog; they're not fixed by this upload in particular, they're
just not considered bugs. I think you should close these bugs
manually and remove those two entries from the changelog.

The second entry (Features have been either...) doesn't seem very
useful; either give a brief summary of the changed features, or
remove the entry entirely. The first entry (New upstream version)
essentially suggests that there are new or extended features, and
users should know to check the upstream changelog already.
(Actually, looking into it, there isn't even an entry for 2.53 in
Changes.xml.)

  - In debian/copyright, you list yourself as the sole copyright holder
for the files under debian/*, but you didn't do the packaging from
scratch. What about the copyright of the previous maintainers?

  - In the bibtool(1) man page, the FILES section states none and the
DIAGNOSTICS section many; I think both sections should simply be
removed.

In the SEE ALSO section, the BibTool Manual is referred to as
bibtool.tex, but this file isn't installed on Debian; instead, it
should refer to bibtool.pdf.gz installed in /usr/share/doc/bibtool.

Also, in the .TH header in bibtool.1, something more useful than
local (like a date for instance) should be used.

  - Have you forwarded your patches for inclusion upstream?

I hope this helps.

Cheers,

Dear mentors,

NMU for package goplay is looking for a sponsor.

#
 GoPlay! is a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that uses DebTags for easily
 finding games in Debian. The program uses FLTK for handling the widgets,
 and libept as the backend for retrieving the data.
 .
 GoPlay! is also a generic yet simple to use DebTags-based package browser.
 Prepackaged browsers GoLearn!, GoAdmin!, GoNet!, GoOffice!, GoSafe!, GoWeb!
 and GoScience! show applications (and for some of them also documentation)
 packages related to education, administration, network, office, safety, web
 and science.  You can also roll your own custom browsers using commandline
 options.

2012-02-15 Thread Mathieu Malaterre
Hi Luis,

This was a mistake, linux-libc-dev still contains posix_*.h files.
However the compilation failure seems to be coming from the use of -I-
apparently, see thread at:

 so Luis is asking for some hints how to deal with this like the need to
 specify explicite header search path via -I options or something like
 this.  Any more detailed hint than the above would be helpful.

I took a look at your package, here are a few comments:

   - debian/preinst has a comment saying it should be removed post-etch;
 now seems like it'd be a good time.

   - lintian gives a few warnings:

   P: bibtool source: source-contains-cvs-control-dir regex-0.12/doc/CVS
   P: bibtool source: source-contains-cvs-control-dir regex-0.12/CVS
   P: bibtool source: unversioned-copyright-format-uri 
http://dep.debian.net/deps/dep5


I tried to fix the warnings emitted by lintian, but the lintian on my boxdoes 
not report the one above:
how can I reproduce this report.



 You may want to get in touch with upstream about that.


I got in touch with the upstream maintainer a few week ago to report thisissue 
and to submit patches:
the upstream maintainer kindly cleaned up the source of the coming version and 
he integrated all the patches
except a cosmetic one. Since then, I have kept in touch with him to fix issues 
in the coming version.

 Also, ideally

 regex shouldn't be embedded in the source.


I asked to the upstream maintainer to get ride of it: as he want to keep it:
may I follow his wish for the coming package of the coming version ? or not ?



   - I'm not sure why you're closing bugs #291134 and #187255 in the
 changelog; they're not fixed by this upload in particular, they're
 just not considered bugs. I think you should close these bugs
 manually and remove those two entries from the changelog.


I am agree: I just closed them the wrong way. I am working on it:
the two entries were removed; I am now the owner of the bugs;
I am on my way to close bugs #291134 and #187255.




 The second entry (Features have been either...) doesn't seem very
 useful; either give a brief summary of the changed features, or
 remove the entry entirely. The first entry (New upstream version)
 essentially suggests that there are new or extended features, and
 users should know to check the upstream changelog already.
 (Actually, looking into it, there isn't even an entry for 2.53 in
 Changes.xml.)


The entry was removed entirely.
In the coming version, the changes are a reported in the LaTeX file 
`Changes.tex'
which is up-to-date. In the coming package of the coming version, `Changes.xml'
is replaced by `Changes.tex'. The `Changes.tex' LaTeX source is converted into 
HTLM
format, then into a TXT format readable by human; it is also composed in PDF 
format
as the upstream author play withfonts to comment changes.
 


   - In debian/copyright, you list yourself as the sole copyright holder
 for the files under debian/*, but you didn't do the packaging from
 scratch. What about the copyright of the previous maintainers?


But I put a comment that mention them in the Comment entry: apparently isnot 
enough.
I have just added Copyright entries for the two previous maintainers.



   - In the bibtool(1) man page, the FILES section states none and the
 DIAGNOSTICS section many; I think both sections should simply be
 removed.

 In the SEE ALSO section, the BibTool Manual is referred to as
 bibtool.tex, but this file isn't installed on Debian; instead, it
 should refer to bibtool.pdf.gz installed in /usr/share/doc/bibtool.

 Also, in the .TH header in bibtool.1, something more useful than
 local (like a date for instance) should be used.


I am working on it.



   - Have you forwarded your patches for inclusion upstream?


I forwarded my patches and the previous patches to the upstream maintainer:
he kindly integrated all of them except a cosmetic one --- see the second
answer above.




I hope this helps.

Cheers,


Thanks,
Jerome

 Dear mentors,

 I am looking for a sponsor for my package trash-cli.

 I talked with Steve Stalcup (the current maintainer, but he's not a DD),
 with Andrew Starr-Bochicchio (who packaged trash-cli previously on mentors)
 and with Andrea Francia (the upstream author) and I packaged the latest
 upstream git snapshot of trash-cli (it's stable).

Hi Stefano,

Thanks for working on this. trash-cli is a very useful package, and
it's always depressing when an upstream maintainer has to discourage
Debian users from using the packaged version due to it being
old/containing bugs already fixed upstream. I hope you have better
luck finding a sponsor than I did when trying to update this.

A few comments though...

As the names of the binaries have changed, I think a debian/NEWS entry
is called for in the case people are using it in scripts. Here is some
suggested language:

   The names of the binaries provided by this package have
   been changed upstream. Both the old command and its
   corresponding new command are provided below for your
   convenience. Please update any usage in scripts accordingly.

   Old command:   New command:
  - trash-  trash-put
  - empty-trash  -  trash-empty
  - list-trash   -  trash-list
  - restore-trash -  trash-restore

It would be nice to point the watch file somewhere useful if we're
already updating the package. Assuming future releases will happen on
github:

version=3
http://githubredir.debian.net/github/andreafrancia/trash-cli (.*).tar.gz

Bug #593104 was fixed upstream and could be closed in the changelog.

You also fix Bug #510043, and should close it. Though, you should use
X-Python-Version rather than XS-Python-Version.

Thanks!

Re: RFS: freefilesync - folder comparison and synchronization tool (new upstream version - 3)

2012-02-15 Thread Damien Lecan
Dear mentors,

Here is a new version of FreeFileSync package which solves lintian
warning with debian/watch file.

So I am still looking for a sponsor for my package freefilesync.

FreeFileSync is a folder comparison and synchronization tool. It is
optimized for highest performance and usability without restricted or
overloaded UI interfaces.

 * Package name: freefilesync
   Version : 5.0.1-4
   Upstream Author : ZenJu zhnmju...@gmx.de
 * URL : http://freefilesync.sourceforge.net/
 * License : GPL-3
   Section : utils

It builds this binary package:

freefilesync - folder comparison and synchronization tool.

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

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

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

  dget -x
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/f/freefilesync/freefilesync_5.0.1-4.dsc

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

Kind regards,

Damien Lecan

Bug#659854: RFS: vpnc/0.5.3r512-1 - Cisco-compatible VPN client (new upstream snapshot)

2012-02-15 Thread Florian Schlichting
Hi Gregor,

thanks a lot for the review. I've uploaded a new package into the same
spot:

  dget -x 
  http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/v/vpnc/vpnc_0.5.3r512-1.dsc
  http://mentors.debian.net/package/vpnc

 - I think PREFIX is only needed for the install but not for the build
   target in debian/rules.

you're right, I've removed the build target override

 - uscan - debian/watch don't work. I don't know if there are releases
   planned but for the svn snapshots a get-orig-source target might be
   nice.

I don't know of any planned releases, but I suspect the active
contributors don't have access to the website... I've added a
get-orig-source target.

(uscan works for me, only it says remote site does not even have
current version -- I suppose that's what you meant?)

 - debian/copyright: mismatch between GPL-2+ and version 1 ...
   GPL-1.

uh, I wonder where I mis-copy-pasted that paragraph from... :-O

 - debhelper 9 might (or might not, I haven't checked) pass more
   hardening *FLAGS down to the build system?
 - Similar: The package doesn't seem to honour DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=noopt.

dh 9 does in fact pass extra hardening options to gcc, and also honours
DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS (and produces lots of ignored-return-value warnings).

I bumped the dh compat level.

 - mk-version: 6: mk-version: Syntax error: ( unexpected
   looks a bit ugly (only triggered by dash, not by bash or zsh, and
   checkbashisms also whines), and it leads to
   -DVERSION=\\ in the gcc calls.

...and an empty version string for vpnc --version. That's indeed ugly! I
had somehow thought it would just use the latest upstream release
version without any SVN revision, and postponed the investigation, so
thanks for spotting this!

I'll email upstream about the bashisms (probably easiest to just switch
the interpreter to /bin/bash), and patched the Makefile to take the full
upstream version string from dpkg-parsechangelog.

 (If you have the package in git somewhere reviewing future changes
 would be more convenient for me :))

of course!

https://github.com/fschlich/Debian-vpnc or rather
git clone git://github.com/fschlich/Debian-vpnc.git vpnc

Use the Lintian version in backports (or in Sid). Do not use the
version in Stable. It is not updated.


Yes, and run it with '-IE --pedantic' to get all the warnings.


I did not played with enough option:
this issue is solved.

Mentors upload authentication

2012-02-15 Thread Michael Gilbert
Based on discussion about making mentors official, one of the key
requirements is contributor DMUP agreement and upload authentication.

One thought I had recently was to move the file hosting functionality
over to alioth, which already has the necessary authentication
infrastructure.  The process from a contributors perspective then
would be something like:

1.  Contributor creates alioth account and signs DMUP (of course needs
alioth to require DMUP signing requirement for -guest accounts first,
which probably needs to be done there anyway)
2.  Contributor [creates and] uploads public key to alioth
3.  Contributor uploads their packages over ssh using public key auth,
thus populating dirs like http://alioth.debian.org/~gilbert-guest.  A
dput.cf for this configuration looks something like this

   [unstable]
   fqdn = vasks.debian.org
   incoming = public_html/unstable
   progress_indicator = 2
   method = scp
   allow_unsigned_uploads = 0
   allowed_distributions = (.*)

4.  debexpo scrapes and parses all packages found in -guest account
dirs, then presents info on its pages mostly like it currently does
5.  Contributor then sends sponsorship-requests mail with references
to their packages on alioth.

This makes debexpo/mentors itself quite a bit simpler, and reuses
existing infrastructure.  Both of which I think are good goals.

Anyway, just a crazy idea I wanted to get out there.

Mike

I don't think that will work, since you need to be in a project to get
SSH access to alioth:

They could be made part of a new contributors project to start them
out.  Perhaps that would be temporary (a month max or something) with
encouragement to get on a real project, and watched a bit more closely
than other accounts to detect possibly malicious actions?

Re: Mentors upload authentication

This one time, at band camp, Michael Gilbert said:

 One thought I had recently was to move the file hosting functionality
 over to alioth, which already has the necessary authentication
 infrastructure.  The process from a contributors perspective then
 would be something like:

I think that there are two main problems with this idea: 

First, alioth, while having an infrastructure for ssh keys, doesn't know
anything about gpg keyrings and signed packages and so on, so all of
that work still has to be done (and this is the hard bit - distributing
ssh public keys is easy).

Second, I think requiring all contributors on alioth to sign the DMUP is
a very bad idea.  We host some external project like SANE that have no
reason to want to sign agreements about their usage of machines they'll
never log in to.  Even if we did think it was a good idea, account
creation is entirely automatic and on demand - we have no way of
ensuring people have read and agreed to something beyond adding a click
through web page at creation time or something (ick!).

So, I think this doesn't sound like a good fit to me, sorry.

Cheers,
