[...] (lots of further info on packagekit) Well, I am a DD and in principle could sponsor such a package, but I just lack all the know how needed to properly evaluate gnome-related packages. And, as I already wrote in another reponse to an RFS some minutes ago, it seems that nobody else reading the RFS on this list is currently able to do such sponsoring. Wouldn't it maybe be a good idea to contact the Debian GNOME Team instead? All the info is available at http://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-gnome PackageKit is no GNOME package (it's not part of GNOME). There is a GNOME frontend for it, called GNOME-PackageKit. The PackageKit daemon uses GLib, but that's all. But as PackageKit is used (can be used) by many GNOME applications, the GNOME development team might be interested in having this in the repos. So, I'll write to their mailing list later, maybe someone is interested in sponsoring the package. Hope this helps, Yep, at least I have some kind of perspective for this package now. I'll first ask the Ubuntu devs, then post on the pkg-gnome mailinglist. Thanks! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

It allows you to implement access to package management into your application in a cross-distro way, for example the Anjuta IDE searches for required plugins using PackageKit and the Nautilus file manager can use it to install apps for missing mime-types etc. All these apps just need to know the PackageKit API, it does not matter if the distribution uses APT/Yum/Zypper/Emerge/your_packagemanager. Also, PackageKit organizes all package management tasks in transactions, which allows you e.g to browse the package database while installing new packages/updates. PackageKit is also the basis for tools like GNOME-PackageKit, which provides an advanced, user-friendly PackageManager and System-Update GUI, as well as KPackageKit (Apper) does for KDE. (KDE can also use PackageKit to install missing Debug-Symbols automatically) For more information about PK, please read http://packagekit.org/pk-intro.html or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PackageKit I work closely with upstream and hope to find someone interested in sponsoring the package for Debian.

My motivation is that I work closely with upstream on some PK related tasks, including this package. I develop an extension for PackageKit, so I know the project's code well, also PackageKit is the basis of some own projects I develop. I also assist the Ubuntu packaging of PK sometimes (by providing patches etc.) and I think having PK in Debian is great for PackageKit by itself (as it tries to be a generic package management abstraction layer for all distros) and for Debian, as it then can benefit from all PK features and existing apps can depend on it, as well as Debian can have the (really nice) PK-based update-manager or other PK-based tools too. It also can use the global AppInstall data to create tools similar to Ubuntu's USC.

It depends on what you mean by encumbered. I'm quite sure that Fedora contains software covered by patents for which there is no public license. It's almost impossible to have software systems that aren't covered by some patent, probably unenforcable. I believe Debian and Fedora use essentially the same policy: we don't include software with a patent that we think is likely to be enforced on either Debian or our users.

Re: RFS: packagekit
Hi! http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/packagekit/packagekit_0.6.7-1.dsc A review as promised... The copyright situation is much more complex than what you present in debian/copyright. Please look at each file and fully document the license situation. It is possible to have a per-binary-package copyright file, which you might want to do since the libraries are licensed differently. I updated the license file. Should be okay now. Why do you need to build in a subdirectory? Seems like it complicates the debian/rules file for no benefit. You can drop many of the flags from DEB_BASIC_AUTOTOOLS_FLAGS by using dh_auto_configure -- $(DEB_BASIC_AUTOTOOLS_FLAGS) $(PK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS) instead. Same for make vs dh_auto_install. Changed. I built in a subdirectory because I thought maybe the scripts would create their modified file versions there so I could easily cleanup the sources. This is not the case, so I dropped the out-of-source build as you said. Why do you move the upstream helper scripts to /usr/lib? They're scripts and should not be in /usr/share/PackageKit. In this directory we only have documentation of PK. Not sure that patch removal stuff is a good idea. Better to fix upstream to not include generated files in the tarball. I asked upstream to do this. As soon as the problem is fixed I will remove the patch removal. Can the ln -s can be achieved with dh_link instead? Changed. The watch file isn't quite as specific as it could be, I would replace (.*) with ([\d\.]+) and drop the blank line. Okay, done. Why is most of 01_set_defaults.patch needed? Shouldn't we only need to change the iceweasel thing? The patch sets the optimal settings for the APT(cc) backends for Debian. The other settings are set to good values which Kubuntu uses too. 02_update_aptcc.patch is a pretty big patch, has it been applied upstream yet? Yes. Will be included in the next PK release. For the URLs in 00_set_vendor.patch I would suggest creating new pages in the PackageKit namespace on the wiki focused on what PackageKit needs from them and based on what other distros have in the equivalent pages. Then make those pages CategoryPermalink. I'll do this. Can copy the Ubuntu page with instructions how to add new repositories? It's a pretty nice page. I wonder if the s/emblem-favorite/distributor-logo/ part of 00_set_vendor.patch should be forwarded upstream. Don't know... Fedora does not change this setting, so I think it's okay since Richard is the maintainer of the Fedora packaging and could easily change it upstream too. The browser plugin package naming has changed recently, they should no longer be called mozilla-* but browser-plugin-* or xul-ext-* IIRC. Okay, changed. Is the smart backend useful in Debian? I can't see smart in Debian. See http://labix.org/smart . We do have a smart package in Debian Sid. The upstream README duplicates the information from debian/control, drop it from debian/docs. Done. Please add explanations to README.Debian about why things aren't shipped. Added. Would it be a good idea to turn on unit tests? That would help ensure the package works on all arches. Unit tests always failed in pbuilder and while running a local debuild. I think they're broken at time, cause Fedora has them disabled too. I'll enable them if they do not block the build process. Which features of PackageKit in Fedora will not work in Debian? An automated warning: configure: WARNING: Distro upgrade notification not supported Strange... ALL features of PackageKit the backend supports will work on Debian. (And the APT backends do support most of the PK features) Distro upgrade notifications have to be done by KPackageKit or GNOME-PackageKit.

Re: RFS: packagekit
Hi! I found a way to make the creation of the patch a little less annoying. You just need to run debuild -S -sa twice, if a patch is created, and the script will remove the patch and cleanup the sources automatically.

Re: RFS: packagekit
Hi again! I already do this, but the problem is that the script changes files, it does not only create new ones. So I'm completely unable to restore all files. No, not *completely*. You can move the files that get modified, build everything and move them back in the clean target. That's a common trick. Another one is to copy all the files in a subdirectory (say, cp -va src tgt), build the package there and just remove that subdirectory in the clean target once you're done. This way, the original sources are kept intact. Funny, a few hours ago I added exactly this for the docs/api folder. Maybe I'll extend it to restore the other files too.
