Packaging the secure email system Confidant Mail

2017-09-18 Thread Mike Ingle 

Hello mentors,

Is there a mentor available to help me get Confidant Mail into the 
Debian repository?
This should not be too difficult, as I already have a .deb package 
working, and the program is pure python 2.7


https://www.confidantmail.org/download/
https://www.confidantmail.org/download/confidantmail_0.41-1.deb
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=874340

* Package name: confidantmail
 Version : 0.41
 Upstream Author : Mike Ingle 
* URL : https://www.confidantmail.org/
* License : GPL
 Programming Lang: Python 2.7
 Description : Secure GPG-based non-SMTP email and large file transfer

Secure GPG-based non-SMTP email and large file transfer. Has a wxPython GUI
that resembles Thunderbird. Can send multi-gigabyte attachments in 
chunks over
clearnet, Tor, i2p. Anyone can run a server and all servers exchange 
messages.
Uses a DHT for key distribution. There is a public server cluster 
available for

anyone to use.

Dependencies: python-wxgtk3.0 python-twisted python-enchant
 python-socks python-cryptography

I already have a working .deb package on the website. Code is all python and
GPL.

Servers have been up since 2015, Windows and MacOS clients are also 
available.

Uses Entangled DHT code, which is GPL, was abandoned by its author, and I
released a bugfix version. I'm going to ask for a mentor on the 
debian-mentors list.


Thank you,
Mike

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "alttab":

* Package name: alttab
  Version : 1.0.3-1
  Upstream Author : Alexander Kulak 
* URL : https://sagb.github.io/alttab
* License : GPLv3
  Section : x11

It builds those binary packages:

alttab - task switcher for minimalistic WMs or standalone X session

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

https://mentors.debian.net/package/alttab

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

dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/a/alttab/alttab_1.0.3-1.dsc

# Advocacy

alttab is just a window switcher for X. Its features:

[1] works not only in specific WM
[2] has visual interface
[3] convenient tactile behaviour: press modifier (Alt) - multiple
switch with key (Tab) - release modifier
[4] focuses on clarity and simplicity: lightweight, depend only on
common X11 libs
[5] customizable look and behaviour
[6] seamless work with WM grouping/desktops, because of
maintaining stack of every window, not only exposed ones

Switchers in common big desktop environments lack [1] and [4].
In minimalistic WM, internal switch lacks [1] and usually [2], [3],
[5], while dmenu-like switchers lack [3]. alttab fits naturally in
this niche.
Comparable standalone application (i'm aware of skippy-xd) is mature
and has more features, but lacks [3] and [4].

# Maintenance notes

I may adopt sponsor's packaging choice instead of gbp/cowbuilder/dh.
I'm hanging around on freenode and oftc (nick sa),
would be grateful for any hint, testing or co-authoring.

Alexander Kulak

Re: Nanopolish: gcc-7 issue solved, but immintrin.h missing on most architectures

You add the following to the linker flags:

-L/usr/lib/$(shell dpkg-architecture -qDEB_TARGET_GNU_TYPE)/hdf5/serial

This is wrong on i386: DEB_TARGET_GNU_TYPE expands to i686-linux-gnu,
while Debian uses i386-linux-gnu. Also, DEB_TARGET_* is definitely
wrong unless you are _building_ a cross-compiler. What you want here is
DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH - that will be correct even if you are _using_ a
cross compiler.

Also, if the package requires intrinsics, you should depend on
sse-support on i386 (but not on amd64, where SSE1 is always part of
the base ISA).

Regards,
Christian

So I'll probably restrict the package to Intel architectures.

Any idea why hdf5 is not found on i386?

That's implied by "new maintainer" already.

Kind of also.

But, what does this patch do?

What about just "Add keywords to the desktop file."?  Saying where that file
is generated from in the source merely adds confusion -- anyone interested
in such a level of detail can see it in the patch.

>   * Aplied two patch to erase external HTML link.

I don't quite see what's the harm there -- it's a clickable link to the
license's text.  It doesn't get auto-fetched by any sane browser so there's
no privacy issue.

immintrin.h is a x86/amd64 specific header for intrinsics, so the
package may simply not support other architectures. At least in util.h
I see nothing that tests whether the according SSE and related 
intrinsics are actually supported.

Nanopolish: gcc-7 issue solved, but immintrin.h missing on most architectures

2017-09-18 Thread Andreas Tille 
control: tags -1 help

Hi,

the gcc-7 issue of nanopolish described in latest upstream (0.8.1) which
is now in unstable but according to the build logs[1] on most architecture
the build fails with

...
cc -o src/thirdparty/scrappie/scrappie_common.o -c -g -O2 
-fdebug-prefix-map=/<>=. -fstack-protector-strong -Wformat 
-Werror=format-security  -fPIC src/thirdparty/scrappie/scrappie_common.c
In file included from src/thirdparty/scrappie/scrappie_common.c:3:0:
src/thirdparty/scrappie/util.h:4:14: fatal error: immintrin.h: No such file or 
directory
 #include 
  ^
compilation terminated.
...


On amd64 this is provided by libgcc-*-dev package - how to build the
package on those other architectures?

Strangely enough on i386 the build fails with

   /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lhdf5

which I do not understand as well ...

Thanks for any help

Andreas.

^^ this is the correct syntax
2) bump compat level
3) std-version is now 4.1.0
4) autotoools-dev is now useless
5) switch to https
6) copyright changes: don't you think changing license from GPL-2 to GPL-3 is

7) dropped debian/* copyright why?
8) patches dropped/foo
9) keys foo/added signatures
10) "--with autotools_dev" I would say useless in compat level 10, as well as
