Yeah, I noticed. That being said, if people could chose sensible names
for packages (I understand ticker was packaged a fair time ago, mind :),
we wouldn't need to care. I dunno what related name ticker could have
gone under, but nevertheless.

Yeah, ticker's name has always been one of the (several) strikes against
it. At least I didn't call pdmenu 'menu'. :-P

Anyway, it looks like the gnome-prefix makes sense here, so this is
moot. Except I probably be be removing ticker from the archive one of

I feel not to change upstream's name. I threw the gnome in because
Ticker is too simple and basic. I will admit that gnome-ticker is a
bit broad as well, however this application has plenty of room to meet
the broad description as it is only at version 0.1.

I always try to stay close to what upstream names and describes about
their application. The wonderful thing about our package system is
being able to change these things as we go. Upstreams description is a
bit underpowered, but will change as it matures into a more powerful
application.

  id have to disagree, the upstream name of the package should be used for
  the debian package name (ticker in this, not gnome-ticker), and the

 That's unrealistic for several reasons:
[...]
 an extreme example would be somebody distributing an image viewer
 named jpegview that didn't support the JPEG format.

thats a good point.

 b) Our users care about what toolkits applications are written in;
 having an easily-identifiable nomenclature for that (gnome-*, for
 instance) makes their lives easier.

to me, including toolkit information in the program name is duplication
of information, since that information is already stated in the
dependencies list of the package.

 c) There is already a ticker in the archive - did you even *check*?

oops. will do next time.

 Perhaps you should explain _why_ you believe the upstream name should be
 used unconditionally.

i dont think all of this unconditionally. my orignal point was that
information about what a program does or what toolkit it uses is
contained elsewhere in the packages control file, not in its package
name.

Bug#169079: Preliminary LRRD packages available.

2003-03-24 Thread Tore Anderson

  In case anyone's interested, I've put out some preliminary packages
 at http://users.linpro.no/tore/lrrd/.  I can't guarantee flawless
 upgrades quite yet, but it's very likely that there won't be any
 problems from this point on.

  sources.list lines are:

deb http://users.linpro.no/tore/lrrd ./
deb-src http://users.linpro.no/tore/lrrd ./

  Quick installation guide:

* Install the lrrd-client package on all the nodes you want monitored
* Install the lrrd-server package on your webserver, and fill in the
  addresses of the various nodes to be monitored.

  (The Debconf questions should be quite self-explanatory.)

  Feedback would be much appreciated, especially from developers
 who might be interested in sponsoring these packages for me.

Bug#186116: ITP: ParMETIS: distributed graph partitioning and sparse matrix reordering

2003-03-24 Thread Adam C Powell IV

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

I intend to package ParMETIS, which is a tool for optimal partitioning 
of graphs and meshes and reorder sparse matrices for to minimize fill 
when using direct solvers.  This tool is primarily used for load 
balancing and communication optimization in finite element simulations 
on parallel computers, including Beowulf clusters.  It uses MPI for 
communication, and should work just fine on Debian beowulfs.


Unfortunately, as you can see below, the license is very non-free, so I 
obtained permission from the author (attached) to distribute it with 
Debian.  Also unfortunately, if I link PETSc to ParMETIS, that will 
throw it into contrib; or I can maintain two versions: petsc in main 
with no parmetis dependency, and petsc-contrib in contrib with it.  I 
don't like this, and have encouraged upstream to dual-license or 
otherwise change distribution and use terms in a way which will allow us 
to put it in main and protect his financial interests.  But no bite yet. :-(

Bug#185997: ITP: gnome-ticker -- Gnome Ticker is a Stock watching program.

2003-03-24 Thread David B Harris
  That's unrealistic for several reasons:
 [...]
  an extreme example would be somebody distributing an image viewer
  named jpegview that didn't support the JPEG format.
 
 thats a good point.

Thanks.

  b) Our users care about what toolkits applications are written in;
  having an easily-identifiable nomenclature for that (gnome-*, for
  instance) makes their lives easier.
 
 to me, including toolkit information in the program name is duplication
 of information, since that information is already stated in the
 dependencies list of the package.

My concern was that that information is not readily-accessible. (There
are already a huge number of packages in the archive, which people have
to sift through; imagine having to list dependencies in the frontends
too)

  c) There is already a ticker in the archive - did you even *check*?
 
 oops. will do next time.

No probs.

  Perhaps you should explain _why_ you believe the upstream name should be
  used unconditionally.
 
 i dont think all of this unconditionally. my orignal point was that
 information about what a program does or what toolkit it uses is
 contained elsewhere in the packages control file, not in its package
 name.

In that case, I'll apologise. Given this particular situation, I thought
you were suggesting that it should be unconditional.

  Description : A tiny utility for adjusting kernel module usage counts

Kernel Module Usage Terminator (kmut) is a tiny utility for adjusting 
module usage counts. When Linux kernel a module is being accessed, it 
increases its 'usecount', and when it's finished it decreases its 
'usecount'. This mechanism prevents a module from being unloaded while 
it is in use. Kmut is useful when working with buggy modules that might 
crash before properly decrementing their usecount. Such modules are 
usually impossible to unload unless a utility like kmut is used to force 
the usecount down to zero.

i guess it depends on what you mean by easily acessible. with aptitude i
do i search for libgnomeui-0, hit the 'r' key, and *bam*, i can see all
of the gnoem packages in debian. thats readily accessible to me.

though i dont neccessarily expect everybody to know how (or want to know
how) to do that. maybe the system that osamu, daniel, et al are working
on will help here.

 imagine having to list dependencies in the frontends too)

im not sure what you mean (or what frontend you use), since aptitude
does display depedency information (though i guess not upfront).
