Removing w32 specific Python code from a package
Hello debian-python and DPMT, I have just noticed that a bug against one of the packages I help maintaining was reported [0] over at Launchpad that is caused by w32-specific code shipping with my package (python-pyglet). Now as python-pyglet needs to be repacked because it is not entirely free anyways I thought I could get rid of this problem by simply removing the w32-specifics when repackaging the dfsg version of the tarball. The code in question implements DirectSound (ie. DirectX) output support, so I believe I can get rid of it without causing any problems. I will contact upstream to get this problem solved, so we have a proper long-term solution, but in the short-term this sounds reasonable to me. What do you think about that? Is it okay to remove that code as a short-term solution to the problem? -- Stephan [0] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pyglet/+bug/333781 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Leaving DPMT?
Hello.
There's no f* way in hell I'm gonna keep using SVN. (That's not a troll,
a flame, whatever. Just a statement.)
That's why I'm planning to move python-{networkx,pygraphviz} out of
DPMT's svn and move them to collab-maint's set of git repositories.
Now, question: should I keep DPMT in Uploaders, or drop it?
Thanks for your views.
Mraw,
KiBi.

please remove it, one exception will lead to other requests and I just
love grep -r :-P
There's no need to leave DPMT, though, maybe you'll come back later
(f.e. if we move to some other VCS)

Currently I think Sandro is the last major contributor for DPMT who
wants to stay in svn.
Cyril, I'll be watching how you maintain the
python-{networkx,pygraphviz} in git and probably move my packages too
if I like it!

Bug#517308: python-syck: lacks a python-support dependency
Package: python-syck Version: 0.61.2-1 Severity: serious The package uses python-support but does not depend on it. The dependency should be auto-generated in a substvar, you just have to add the proper substvar. Note: the package is unmaintained, someone from the python team should probably take it over. It is currently a dependency of dak and thus it would be nice to have it properly maintained.

I have used a few sample packages during my testing, but this is far from enough. I have now rebuilt all reverse dependencies against the new python-support version. This process allowed me to find a couple of things to improve so that less packages are affected, and some long-standing bugs that maintainers were working around. Even with these changes, there are around 50 packages that need fixing. I have filed bugs against them, and the progress can be followed there: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?tag=pysupport-transition;users=j...@debian.org I also found a number of FTBFS issues and some bugs related to Python packaging but not to these changes; they don’t appear in this list.
