Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "plowshare" and the related 
package "plowshare-modules". The main reason this is worth an upload is 
that I'm shifting the way the two packages are related in order to 
follow upstream recommendations. Specifically plowshare-modules should 
be kept out of Debian releases (but I intend to keep it in unstable 
hence the placeholder RC bug to prevent migration), and this requires a 
slight adjustment in the dependencies of plowshare itself.


Package name: plowshare
Version : 2.1.7-2
URL : https://salsa.debian.org/arcresu-guest/plowshare
Section : web

It builds these binary packages:

  plowshare  - download and upload files from file sharing websites
  plowshare4 - transitional dummy package

AND

Package name: plowshare-modules
Version : 0~git20180325.e4bd365-1
URL : https://salsa.debian.org/arcresu-guest/plowshare-modules
Section : web

It builds these binary packages:

  plowshare-modules - plowshare drivers for various file sharing websites

Getting the packages:

  https://mentors.debian.net/package/plowshare
  https://mentors.debian.net/package/plowshare-modules

  dget -x 
https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/plowshare/plowshare_2.1.7-2.dsc
  dget -x 
https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/plowshare-modules/plowshare-modules_0~git20180325.e4bd365-1.dsc


Changes since the last upload:

plowshare (2.1.7-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Update VCS to point to Salsa.
  * Correct typo in patch description.
  * Update debhelper compat to 11 (no changes).
  * Update to standards version 4.2.0:
- use HTTPS URL in changelog.
  * Set Rules-Requires-Root to no.
  * De-emphasise plowshare-modules in favour of plowmod:
- drop from Recommends to Suggests and
- promote git from Suggests to Recommends since the plowmod script
  that replaces the modules package requires git.

  * Update standards version to 4.2.0 (no changes).
  * Update debhelper compat to 11 (no changes).
  * Add upstream metadata file.
  * Change VCS URLs to point to Salsa.
  * Add watch file.

Hi Herbert,

Thanks for looking at my packages. I'm not really sure how the old changelog 
diff happened other than that the commit responsible must have been lost 
somewhere in the migration of the repository from GitHub to GitLab to salsa. I 
fixed the changelog in a new commit.

What did you want me to update about the copyright? Whenever I do a new 
snapshot I go through the upstream diff to check for copyright statement 
changes and I didn't notice anything. I've now updated the year range for the 
packaging copyright in case that's what you meant.



Some people update the upstream part by release. Not
only by copyright statement changes. The release has
2018 so I asked about it. Instead of '2010-2015',
'2010-2018'. This is not a problem.

I did ask because maybe it was forgotten to be updated,
as the year range for the packaging.

Package uploaded. Thanks for your work!

I do not understand why the change in  the

debian/changelog file related to the current

version in Debian SID:


-  * Update to Standards-Version 4.1.1: no changes.
+  * Update to Standards-Version 4.0.0: no changes.

In the repository '4.1.1' seems to be the correct number:

https://salsa.debian.org/arcresu-guest/plowshare-modules/blob/debian/0_git20171112.e94a905-1/debian/control#L7


Please update debian/copyright file.

That's disappointing. :-(

It's probably worth documenting status quo in the patch header; or maybe 
in a more prominent place, such as README.Debian.


Anyway, uploaded.

Bug#805632: RFS: plowshare/2.1.2-1

[Carl Suster]

Hi Jakub, Paul,

Sorry for the long delay. I've had a chance to investigate now and realised
that the issue was that I was using the wrong workflow for git-buildpackage and
so it was simply ignoring the tarball from uscan. I've fixed things now so that
the orig tarball matched the downloaded one, and the changelog is complete.

The new version is on mentors just now:

  http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/plowshare/plowshare_2.1.2-1.dsc

Let me know if this version is ok.

Cheers,
Carl

This change is not documented in the changelog:

"for" loops in debian/rules need "set -e"; see Policy §4.6.

Why is your .orig.tar different that the one uscan downloads?

A good way to find out how it is different is to compare the two files
using diffoscope.

Alternatively, debdiff from devscripts can compare source packages or
tardiff can compare tarballs.

Hi,

I asked on 15 July 2012 about the missing package, but I got no reply.  I guess
that you're no longer interested in this RFS.  You can always re-upload your
package to mentors and reopen this RFS or open an new one.

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package plowshare.
 * Package name: plowshare
   Version : 20110918-1
   Upstream Author : Matthieu Crapet mcra...@gmail.com * URL
: http://code.google.com/p/plowshare/ * License : GPL-3+
   Section : web
It builds those binary packages:

plowshare  - download files for file-sharing websites utility

My motivation for maintaining plowshare package is because it's an
excellent application and tool to automate downloads of file hosting
services like rapidshare, megaupload and many others from command
prompt. I've used it for a while and it works great, therefore I'd
like share it with the community.

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

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

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

  dget -x 
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/plowshare/plowshare_20110918-1.dsc

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

Kind regards.
Daniel Echeverry

I don't intend to sponsor this package[0][1], but here's my quick and 
incomplete review:


There's new upstream version available.

Your .orig.tar.gz isn't identical to the can be downloaded from upstream 
homepage.


- debian/*.dirs and debian/*.manpages don't seem to be needed. The 
setup.sh script already takes care of creating needed directories and 
installing manual pages (including the one you forgot :P).


Please consider shipping the bash completion file in your binary 
package.


In DEP-5 copyright file, patterns in Files field are supposed to be 
separated by whitespace, not by commas. (BTW, lintian =2.5.3 would tell 
you that.)


Just in case upstream decides to use normal version numbers again, I'd 
recommend using a slightly different versioning scheme for Debian: 
0+MMDD-R



[0] I believe that packages like this belong to experimental/contrib, 
not unstable/main. (This is my personal opinion, not necessarily shared 
by the rest of the project.)


[1] Also, I try to keep away from anything that depend on ImageMagick. 
:P

Hi,

 Dear mentors,
 
 I am looking for a sponsor for my package plowshare.
 
 * Package name: plowshare
   Version : 0.9.5~r1411-1
   Upstream Author : Arnau Sanchez tokl...@gmail.com
 Matthieu Crapet mcra...@gmail.com
 * URL : http://code.google.com/p/plowshare/
 * License : GPL-3+
   Section : web
 
 It builds these binary packages:
 plowshare  - download files for file-sharing websites utility
 
[...]

It seems to me that no one has responded to this RFS so far. So here's my
comments on this package:

- debian/changelog: It's nice that this is your first Debian package, but IMHO
  the changelog isn't the right place to keep this.
- debian/dirs: why usr?
- debian/control: download files for file-sharing websites utility doesn't
  make much sense to me. Maybe just drop utility and s/for/from/?
- debian/rules: a use of debian/links could simplify your dh_links code; please
  consider moving to the simplified debhelper 7 debian/rules format (after all,
  you are depending on a particular version of debhelper)
- debian/watch doesn't work for me
- src/modules/* lacks copyright information.

Hope this helps,
Michael

RFS: plowshare

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package plowshare.

* Package name: plowshare
  Version : 0.9.5~r1411-1
  Upstream Author : Arnau Sanchez tokl...@gmail.com
Matthieu Crapet mcra...@gmail.com
* URL : http://code.google.com/p/plowshare/
* License : GPL-3+
  Section : web

It builds these binary packages:
plowshare  - download files for file-sharing websites utility

The package appears to be lintian clean.

The upload would fix these bugs: 599924

My motivation for maintaining this package is: I'm an avid user of
plowshare, I think is very useful for people who enjoy console apps,
Upstream people are very interested in supporting a Debian package and
they are very friendly, etc.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/plowshare
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main 
contrib non-free
- dget 
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/plowshare/plowshare_0.9.5~r1411-1.dsc

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

Kind regards
