Bug#675532: RFS: bilibop/0.1 (ITP #675467)
Hi, and thanks for this review On 19/07/2013 20:25, intrigeri wrote: First, was the target distribution change in debian/changelog intentional? (0.4.12 has experimental, 0.4.13 has unstable.) Yes it is; the target distribution was set to experimental for the wheezy's freeze duration... after what it was forgotten. Do you think I should revert to experimental ? Second, it looks like important changes and refactoring are flowing in rather quickly, so I'd like to check that you are confident with the current state of bilibop, and believe it is stable enough to be part of a Debian release. Do you confirm this? The most important changes are about debconf support, which has been added to bilibop-rules. I consider this as an improvement. Maintainer scripts are idempotent. I have tested bilibop-rules 0.4.13 installation in several ways: fresh install (with or without preseeding it), upgrade from 0.4.11, remove, reinstall, purge: all seems to work as expected. Other things are mainly addition of comments in the shell library, update of the documentation, and some changes in the code to take into account some very specific usecases. So yes, I am confident with the current state of bilibop (but yes, this was not the case with 0.4.12 - less than one day of lifetime!). Also note that bilibop is still in active development, and some enhancements are planned for the next months or even next years; of course, important attention is given to not break existing things. Also, please keep in mind that once bilibop is uploaded to Debian, the responsibility of backward compatibility will be yours, as the maintainer. This being said, while I certainly wouldn't mind a bit more abstraction / factorization at some places, the code looks solid enough :) Some nitpicking follows, that should be fixed before the initial upload IMHO: +myshell=$(awk -F: \$1 ~ /$(whoami)/ {print \$NF} /etc/passwd) Maybe use `getent' instead? Fixed. Also Lintian says: I: bilibop-common: spelling-error-in-manpage usr/share/man/man1/drivemap.1.gz informations information ... and a few others, so you probably want to run it in verbose / pedantic mode and take the results into account. Mh... I already used '--info --verbose --pedantic' in my script. I thought it was enough, as mentors.debian.net/package/bilibop says 'Package is lintian clean'. The tags you mention are catched by '--display-info'. Fixed. So, here is the new version: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/b/bilibop/bilibop_0.4.14.dsc Cheers quidame signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Bug#706514: RFS: dcraw/9.17-1
Hi Oliver, [Quoting your private mail to me, hoping there is nothing private] 2013/7/19 Oliver Sander san...@igpm.rwth-aachen.de: You want to upload a newer version without intend to maintain it. Right? No. I made up my mind and I promise to be the dcraw maintainer if that is what it takes. The package cannot be adopted now as it is not yet orphaned. CC-ing MIA-team, as, it seems, the current maintainer Steve King is not active in Debian any more. He was CC-ed several times in this bug-thread without any reaction from his side. Yes, but pay attention, NMU is only for critical bug-fixes. Not for new versions or minor changes. See Debian Policy. A new package has been uploaded, which now has the version 9.19-1. Gregor is right, we can do NMU with the new version of the package (thanks him). Sorry for confusing, I did not know that. I have changed your debian/changelog accordingly. See above. The actual maintainer added those files to the package, and I don't really know what they do. But just because _I_ don't know what they do that doesn't mean they don't serve a purpose. That's why I kept them in. gpg_key is not in a current version of dcraw [1], [2]. Wow, you are right! That must be my own gpg_key which must have crept in there silently when I created it for packaging. Sorry for screwing this up. It's gone now. .badpixels, as i understand should not be in a package either, as it is camera-specific file [3]. Why then should it be in the package? As I said: no clue, it wasn't me who put it there. It is also gone now. What's next? Ok, I have uploaded the package. Thanks for contributing! I hope you have learned something from this cooperation. I did not use DELAYED-queue as the original maintainer had enough time to react. Hope, you will continue you work on Debian!

Bug#717123: RFS: superkb/0.22-5 [ITP #647877] -- keyboard launcher with on-screen hints
Hi. I uploaded a new version for Superkb, the package for which I'm trying to get sponsorship. The new version is 0.22-5 and this is what I changed: superkb (0.22-5) unstable; urgency=low * Added lintian override for no-upstream-changelog, because it is not in English and this has been fixed upstream. Next upstream release will properly include a changelog and this override will be removed. * Fixed man page invocation to help2man for proper text in the NAME section. * Moved sample-config/superkbrc to debian/ and removed the patch. * Include sample config files under /usr/share/doc/superkb/sample-config. * Improved man page superkb.1. So, technically, the package has no more lintian --pedantic warnings unattended, and hopefully the next upstream version will have most patches directly incorporated (because upstream is me) so the package will become simpler in the future. Even though I'm asking for sponsorship, I'd really appreciate a review even if it's not sponsored. Thanks in advance.
