RFS: nose 1.3.0-1

2013-04-12 Thread Dmitry Shachnev
Hi,

I would like to request sponsorship of “nose” package I’ve been
working on last month. The package is not team-maintained, but I got
an acknowledgement from the maintainer. The changelog is:

  [ Dmitry Shachnev ]
  * Team upload.
  * New upstream release (closes: #675554).
- Fixes exceptions in tests generator (closes: #663465, thanks to
  Jakub Wilk for the bug report).
- Provides __main__.py, which allows using nose as python3 -m nose
  (thanks to Stefano Rivera for the patch).
  * Build-depend on python-coverage (for the test suite).
  * Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.4, no changes needed.
  * Disable some unstable tests (in multiprocessing module) to make the
package not FTBFS.
  * Run the tests for Python 3.x during build.
  * debian/patches/manpage-formatting: dropped, the issue is properly
fixed upstream.
  * debian/rules: disable HTTP traffic during build.
  * Refresh other patches.
  * Update debian/clean.

  [ Charlie Smotherman ]
  * Removed myself from uploaders in debian/control

The removal of nosetests-3.x scripts is not included in this upload
(because some packages have not been fixed yet), but I hope it will be
included in the next upload. Also, now it is possible to use
“python3.x -m nose ...” as a replacement for “nosetests-3.x ...”. See
[1] for details on why we are going to drop those scripts.

The package is available in python-modules SVN, upstream tarball is on
PyPI and is uscan-able.

Re: [Python-modules-team] python-modules-team moderation bankruptcy

2013-04-12 Thread Simon Chopin
Quoting Jakub Wilk (2013-04-11 13:15:32)
 Due to unfortunate circumstances, python-modules-team@lists.a.d.o hasn't 
 been moderated for years. We have currently about 4500 messages in the 
 moderation queue; vast majority of them is spam. I don't believe that 
 it's worth anyone's time to go through them all, especially since value 
 of most (all?) non-spam messages is very little after all these 
 months/years. Therefore, unless someone objects, I'm going to declare 
 moderation bankruptcy: I'll discard all the messages older that a month, 
 and start moderation anew.
 
 If your message is currently held in python-modules-team moderation 
 queue, and you want it to reach the list, please tell us NOW.
How can we contribute to the spam filtering effort ?

Hi there, Dmitry,

As you may know, we're currently in freeze. Such a disruptive change to
unstable in deep freeze isn't really great.

Please change the changelog entry to experimental.

I'm currently a bit busy, but nose is an important package. If no one
else steps up, feel free to ping me in a few days, and I can look at
reviewing it.

Stefano and Piotr have uploaded it recently-ish and are both active,
perhaps one of them may consider uploading this?

Thanks,
  Paul

Re: RFR: python-qrcode -- native python module to generate QR codes

 Great. The mentors site suddenly gives me lintian warnings, that were
 not there earlier and that did give the linitan on my debian
 experimental. :-(

 There's only one lintian warning:

 W: qrcode source: debhelper-overrides-need-versioned-build-depends (=
 7.0.50~)

 This tag was been retired in Lintian 2.5.11, because stable has a
 newer debhelper version, and oldstable is not supported anymore. (I
 would have preferred if the tag was made pedantic rather than removed,
 but oh well...)

 The remaining tags are informative:

 I: qrcode source: quilt-patch-missing-description add-man-page
 I: python-qrcode: hyphen-used-as-minus-sign usr/share/man/man1/qr.1.gz:7
 I: python-qrcode: hyphen-used-as-minus-sign usr/share/man/man1/qr.1.gz:13
 I: python-qrcode: hyphen-used-as-minus-sign usr/share/man/man1/qr.1.gz:19

 Anyway.
 ...and again I upload a hopefully again nicer version.
 I hope the next package will be less complicated...

I'm interesting in sponsoring this package and uploading it, if no one else
has claimed it.  Cornelius, do you have a git or svn repo for this package
yet?  If not, I can set up a git repo on collab-maint.
