Bug#696600: Sponsoring sun - schedule tasks at sunrise/set
Hi Paul's :-) Im very glad you want to sponsor my package! Some more thoughts about an appropriate packagename: I'm currently not clear about the future development of the sun tool. There are several features which might extend the tool in future releases: - add muslimic prayer times: http://www.nabkal.de/namazrech.html - add calculations for the sun position - add calculations for sun eclipses As I'm not willing to change the packagename, once its in the archive, I think it's important the choose a suitable name which also covers these new features. Here are my proposals: sun - fits calculations related to the planet sun suncal - seems only to be correct for time/date related calculus. Determination of the sun position in coordinates is not covered. ephemeris - fits calculations for positions of arbitrary celestial objects (sun, moon, planets, stars ..)

It's still worth the try, than continue discussing... ;-) If the name gets rejected, we could even choose between: - suncal - atsun - suncalc suncal - seems only to be correct for time/date related calculus. Determination of the sun position in coordinates is not covered. Depends on if you expand cal to calendar or calculation(s) :) (Maybe suncalc would be clearer for the latter.) A agree, suncal isn't bad, but what's neat about sun is how the command invocation flows: I would prefer 'suncalc'. Just to keep more options open.

Bug#696600: RFS: sun/0.2-1 [ITP] schedule cron or at-jobs at sunrise/set
Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: wishlist Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for my new package sun Package name: sun Version : 0.2-1 Upstream Author : Steffen Vogel p...@steffenvogel.de URL : https://github.com/stv0g/sun License : GPL Section : utils It builds those binary packages: sun - solar ephemeris calculator I wrote this tool to easily schedule the switching of my lighting for home automation. Its a stand alone binary following the unix paradigm. Its designed to be used in conjunjtion with cron, at date etc. For me this tool is extremly useful as you might note with these examples: Schedule a BIOS wakeup 10 minutes before the sunrise in Berlin: nvram-wakeup -s $(date -d -10min $(sun rise -q Berlin) +%s) Shutdown the system 10 minutes after sunset: shutdown $(date -d +10min $(src/sun set --lat=50.55 --lon=-6.2) +%H:%M) Enable my lighting at cilil twiglight: echo ~/bin/enable-lightning | at $(sun set -q Frankfurt -t civil) To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: http://mentors.debian.net/package/sun Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/sun/sun_0.2-1.dsc More information about sun can be obtained from my blog: http://www.steffenvogel.de/2012/12/23/cron-jobs-fur-sonnenauf-untergang/ or my ITP bugreport: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=696593 Regards, Steffen Vogel -- Steffen Vogel Robensstraße 69 52070 Aachen Mail: p...@steffenvogel.de Mobil: +49 176 34911387 Web: http://www.steffenvogel.de Jabber: st...@jabber.ccc.de ICQ: 236033 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Hi Gregor, thanks for reviewing my package! I've fixed all points you mentioned. There still the problem that the package name (sun) might be too generic to be included in the archive. What do you think about this concern? I've collected some alternatives: solar suncal atsun sunrun suncycles - makes no sense to me Am Sonntag, den 23.12.2012, 23:17 +0100 schrieb gregor herrmann: - The package doesn't build on a machine / in a chroot without internet access because the tests fail: fixed. I moved the binary from the check_ prefix to the noinst_ prefix. So it gets compiled for testing purposes but not installed by automake. - You can remove the override_dh_auto_configure in debian/rules if you use debhelper (= 9) in debian/control and 9 in debian/compat. fixed. - Current Standards-Version is 3.9.4. fixed. - You don't need the version restrictions for pkg-config libjson0-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev in debian/control, for all 3 packages there are no older versions in the archive. fixed. - Please run lintian with all bells and whistles turned on against the .changes file. It reports for me: debian-watch-contains-dh_make-template and 3x hyphen-used-as-minus-sign for the manpage fixed. I've run lintian with --pedantic -E. No more warnings are showing up. Just debian-mentor's lintian claims: newer-standards-version 3.9.4 (current is 3.9.3) - Installing the empty NEWS file doesn't look so helpful :) (And I'd rename docs to sun.docs for consistency with sun.manpages.) fixed. Automake requires the NEWS file. So, I removed it from debian/sun.docs. I uploaded a the updated package to debian-mentors [1].
