Bug#923705: RFP: node-parse5 -- HTML parsing/serialization toolset for Node.js

[Jeff Cliff]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name: node-parse5
  Version : 437d060b 
  Upstream Author :  Ivan Nikulin 
* URL : https://salsa.debian.org/themusicgod1-guest/parse5/
* License : MIT
  Programming Lang: javascript
  Description : HTML parsing/serialization toolset for Node.js

parse5 is a spec-compliant HTML parser for Nodejs.  It claims to be the fastest 
one, and that it "nearly everything you may need when dealing with HTML."

It claims to parses HTML the way "the latest version of your browser does".
It has proven itself reliable in such projects as jsdom, Angular2, Polymer 
and many more.

It is a dependency of node-prettier (#879665)

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : imaplibext
  Version : 0.7.6
  Upstream Author : Thomas Ward 
* URL : https://gitlab.com/teward/imaplibext
* License : AGPL-3+
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description : Python imaplib extension library providing UID-based
commands

imaplibext is a Python library compatible with Python 2 and Python 3 which
extends the existing imaplib library to provide commands which utilize UID-
based commands instead of the way the imaplib currently does commands. This
allows for better interaction with individual messages, including when
manipulating flags, etc. in a way that won't affect other messages.

A long time ago, I started working on a ListServ product internally with a
company and we couldn't manipulate messages to mark them as unread easily
because we were not using UID-based commands.  This led to some
StackOverflow
questions on best approach to fixing this, which was to make all calls
via UID
calls (imaplib.IMAP4(...).uid(...)). These UID commands ended up being
lengthy
when directly called, and I realized this was going to cause problems, so I
created imaplibext as a wrapper around imaplib to utilize all commands
as UID
command calls instead of the command calls as they were in pure imaplib.
This
permitted easier modifications to email messages and to make sure that the
message we're working with was actually the message we were manipulating.

I personally use this in all my Python projects which relate to using IMAP
email, and this is in use in several projects at the workplace by several
developers. There are more and more projects created as well that are
Python 3
in origin which are using this at work, including on several private
listserv
deployments I have with customized ListServ software; this software utilizes
imaplibext, and if it was possible to have this included in Debian it'd make
things a lot easier and have one less thing that has to be pulled in through
PyPI.

Currently, the only way to get this functionality is with imaplib's
uid() calls
to an IMAP connection.  This can get very lengthy when you have to rewrite
commands to be properly interact with UID commands.  This library
overrides the
in-built IMAP commands to utilize UID calls and behaves identically to
the in-
built imaplib commands that it overrides.

I plan to maintain this myself, as I actively support the library in PyPI
itself as well as in its git repository, and I use it regularly and can fix
bugs on it regularly.  I am also active regularly downstream in Ubuntu, and
because of my levels of activity there, I have no intention of
"disappearing"
or going away and orphaning the package.  I am also regularly reachable via
Email and IRC, and can actively commit to keeping this package updated and
maintained.

java-package is not in Debian.  It's in the contrib distribution, which is
a set of packages provided alongside Debian for working with non-free
software.

This sort of upstream repackager, if it itself is released under a free
software license, is in general acceptable for contrib if someone is
willing to sponsor it.  (I haven't looked at the details of this specific
package.)

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

Hi.

I expect a lack of availability to maintain some of my packages in the
coming months, so anyone interested in php-cas is very much
welcome in adopting it.

The package may need some work for updating to latest upstream, but I
don't really have a clear idea of the amount of work needed (besides the
php-db dependency issue).

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

maybe simple, but definitely not clean from a point of view of the DFSG!
And that's what Rock Storm has mentioned. All packages that are not
fulfilling the DFSG aren't Debian or can't be Debian and need to go to
non-free. But as it's possible to package the arduino IDE for main it
would be confusing for user to also find a arduino package in the
non-free sections.

Please have a look at the existing package arduino!
One of the most important files within the Debian packaging is the
copyright file.

https://salsa.debian.org/electronics-team/arduino/arduino/blob/master/debian/copyright

Please note the Files-Excluded field here, it is listing all the files
that are excluded so the package is DFSG clean.

Next there is a file README.source.

https://salsa.debian.org/electronics-team/arduino/arduino/blob/master/debian/README.source

It mostly describes what steps are needed to import a new source tarball
and how to handle the packaging if needed.

Packaging the arduino IDE isn't a nice package where new contributors
should start with (because of this massive DFSG stuff). Geert (CCd) was
one of the latest people who have worked on arduino so he could probably
say something about the current state of the arduino package. I'm not
familiar enough to give more advises regarding updating the arduino
package, I guess Geert can jump in. But I hardly won't see a non-free
arduino IDE package in Debian or a helper package in contrib.

Bug#923220: DFSG compliance concerns

Hi,

it is correct that the package just builds a .deb file which contains
full functional Arduino IDE. Simple and clean.

What about the java-package and DFSG? It is very similar to my package
and also does not build a .deb from source but is contained in Debian.

  Description : Macros for drawing electric circuits


Circuit Macros is a set of macros designed by
Dwight Aplevich for drawing high quality
electric circuit to include in TeX, LaTeX,
web or other similar documents.

Packaging the Circuit Macros allows an easier distribution
and implementation in other packages that use them, for example
PyCirkuit or dpic.

The package does not contain any binary files, just the M4 macros,
the documentation and some examples of use.

It is ready to upload.

Bug#923220: DFSG compliance concerns

[Rock Storm]

Hi all,

@Carsten, as was pointed out `arduino-builder` and this package are
completely different, though the name of course might be misleading.

@Philipp, I looked at your script. It effectively builds a '.deb' file
which can be installed. However you are not building the Arduino IDE,
your package simply contains the very binaries provided by upstream.
That is not the way Debian works. The binaries shipped in a Debian
package must be built from source. We must make sure the building is
reproducible and achievable on all supported architectures.

Therefore this software somehow promotes practices that I'd say are
against the DFSG.

Regards,

Hello Kashif,

sure! I pushed it on salsa:
