  Description : Language Detection Library for Java

This software uses language profiles which were created based on
common text for each language. N-grams, a contiguous sequence of n
items from a given sample of text, were then extracted from that text
and stored in the profiles. When trying to figure out in what
language a certain text is written, the program goes through the same
process: It creates the same kind of n-grams of the input text. Then
it compares the relative frequency of them, and finds the language
that matches best. Currently 71 languages are supported.

Bug#1013374: olm: FTBFS: unsatisfiable build-dependency: binaryen (< 105+) but 106-1 is to be installed

[Markus Koschany]

Hi,

I didn't know that there was some coordination required between binaryen and
emscripten. Nobody talked about that in the past. Sorry to ditch your request
but I don't plan to maintain emscripten. The only reason why I introduced
binaryen and wabt to Debian was to compile web assembly code from source in
ublock-origin. Apart from that I am not really involved in the Javascript
ecosystem either. I think it is best if someone takes over emscripten and
binaryen and maintains them together.

Regards,

Markus

The blocking I/O model may be more appropriate for data intensive, low latency
scenarios, whereas the non-blocking model may be more appropriate for high
latency scenarios where raw data throughput is less important than the ability
to handle thousands of simultaneous HTTP connections in a resource efficient
manner.

  * Easy: Binaryen has a simple C API in a single header, and can also be used
from JavaScript. It accepts input in WebAssembly-like form but also accepts 
a
general control flow graph for compilers that prefer that.
 .
  * Fast: Binaryen's internal IR uses compact data structures and is designed
for completely parallel codegen and optimization, using all available CPU
cores. Binaryen's IR also compiles down to WebAssembly extremely easily and
quickly because it is essentially a subset of WebAssembly.
 .
  * Effective: Binaryen's optimizer has many passes that can improve code very
significantly (e.g. local coloring to coalesce local variables; dead code
elimination; precomputing expressions when possible at compile time; etc.).
These optimizations aim to make Binaryen powerful enough to be used as a
compiler backend by itself. One specific area of focus is on
WebAssembly-specific optimizations (that general-purpose compilers might not
do), which you can think of as wasm minification , similar to minification
for JavaScript, CSS, etc., all of which are language-specific (an example of
such an optimization is block return value generation in SimplifyLocals).

Bug#916611: ITP: wabt -- WebAssembly Binary Toolkit

[Markus Koschany]

Package: wnpp

* Package name: wabt
  Version : 1.0.6
  Upstream Author : WebAssembly Community Group participants
* URL : https://github.com/WebAssembly/wabt
* License : Apache-2.0
  Programming Lang: C++
  Description : WebAssembly Binary Toolkit

 WABT (pronounced: "wabbit") is a suite of tools for WebAssembly, including:
 .
  * wat2wasm: translate from WebAssembly text format to the WebAssembly binary
format
  * wasm2wat: the inverse of wat2wasm, translate from the binary format back
to the text format (also known as a .wat)
  * wasm-objdump: print information about a wasm binary. Similar to objdump.
  * wasm-interp: decode and run a WebAssembly binary file using a stack-based
interpreter
  * wat-desugar: parse .wat text form as supported by the spec interpreter
(s-expressions, flat syntax, or mixed) and print "canonical" flat format
  * wasm2c: convert a WebAssembly binary file to a C source and header
 .
 These tools are intended for use in (or for development of) toolchains or
 other systems that want to manipulate WebAssembly files. Unlike the
 WebAssembly spec interpreter (which is written to be as simple, declarative
 and "speccy" as possible), they are written in C/C++ and designed for easier
 integration into other systems. Unlike Binaryen these tools do not aim to
 provide an optimization platform or a higher-level compiler target; instead
 they aim for full fidelity and compliance with the spec (e.g. 1:1 round-trips
 with no changes to instructions).


This is a new build-dependency of ublock-origin to compile WebAssembly
files from source.

That sounds great. It's not the easiest task but would certainly be a
nice addition to the Java ecosystem in Debian. You should be prepared to
fix security vulnerabilities in stable releases though.

I guess it's completely fine to include the debian dir in your repo. As
a package maintainer I only care about the actual source tarball anyway.
As soon as the package is officially part of Debian we recommend to use
the official packages and then your "upstream" debian dir wouldn't be
needed anymore but until then it doesn't hurt to keep it.

That would be really cool because sometime in a hopefully far, far away
future SDL1 will be removed from Debian and if we want to keep the old
SDL1 games we need to port them to SDL2. That's why I have decided for
myself to package new games only if they are future-proof. ;)

That's true and I think liquidwar and liquidwar6 are different enough to
justify the inclusion of another source package instead of simply
upgrading the existing package.

Hi Christian,

I had a look at liquidwar6 and I'm attaching the debian directory to
this bug report with my preliminary work.

At first I was interested in replacing the current v5 version with
liquidwar6 because it looks better in many respects, although network
mode still seems to be in an experimental state. Unfortunately the game
requires a lot of cpu time and when I play a "Quick game", the cpu is
always at 100%. That's a real show-stopper at the moment.

The standalone liquidwar-server package would be obsolete with v6. If I
understand correctly, the main executable provides this feature now.

My debian directory includes three patches:

The debian.patch removes all Makefile code that requires your debian
*.in files. It is usually better to remove the debian directory from the
upstream tarball because it is replaced by the official debian directory
later.

format-security.patch: Liquidwar6 fails to build from source in Debian
because we use the format-security build flag now.

no-Werror.patch: Werror is great for development but a little bit of a
nightmare for package maintainers because every future warning will
cause a build failure. :)

(wishlist): It would be great if Liquidwar6 could use SDL2 in the future.

I think I would continue my work on upgrading the liquidwar package in
Debian if we could resolve the cpu issue somehow but until then it is
probably better to stick with the more stable liquidwar5 series.

Hello Roger,

I have packaged smali because it is a new dependency for apktool in
Debian now. I couldn't find any package of yours, so I assume you
haven't found the time to finish it yet. If you want to get involved
with Java or Android stuff, please join the Java or Android Tools teams.

Hello,

Bgfinancas is rc-buggy [1] and he doesn't intend to maintain this

Dear ftp team,

please remove gimp-dimage-color from Debian. The package has been up for
adoption since 2008 but nobody showed any interest in it. It is not part
of the current stable distribution and fails to build from source [1].
As described in [2] the maintainer once wanted to ask for the removal
himself but for unknown reasons this never happened.

Hello José Robson and eriberto,

I saw that bgfinancas has been orphaned for some time now but there is
also a new upstream release on mentors.debian.net [1] that would
probably fix http://bugs.debian.org/801377.

Now I wonder whether José Robson still intends to maintain the package
or if we can ignore the new upstream release on mentors and ask for the
removal of bgfinancas? It has been already removed from Testing and it
is one of two packages that block the removal of libasm2-java and substance.

According to the maintainer and upstream author of yics, the package is

Hi,

I have packaged the initial version of ET:Legacy a while ago. My Debian
files can be found here:

https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-games/etlegacy.git

Unfortunately even the data files of the engine are non-distributable
and thus not suitable for Debian. I have filed an upstream bug for that
but I expect it will take some time until it gets resolved.

Bug#814801: ITP: lombok-patcher -- live-rewrite classes as a JVM runs

[Markus Koschany]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Markus Koschany <a...@debian.org>

* Package name: lombok-patcher
  Version : 0.20
  Upstream Author : The Project Lombok Authors
* URL : https://projectlombok.org
* License : Expat
  Programming Lang: Java
  Description : live-rewrite classes as a JVM runs

Lombok Patcher gives you the ability to live-rewrite classes as a JVM
runs, either by loading as an agent during JVM bootup or by injecting
the agent 'live' during execution.

To make this easier than fiddling with classes directly, Lombok
Patcher offers a few 'patch scripts' to do common tasks, such as wrap
your own code around any method call, replace methods entirely with
your own, or add fields.

lombok.patcher also includes support for getting around the Eclipse
OSGi container's classloader separation.

lombok-patcher is a required build-dependency for fixing src:lombok
and packaging lombok-ast which in turn is needed for
src:android-platform-tools-base.

* URL : https://android.googlesource.com/platform/tools/base/
* License : Apache-2.0
  Programming Lang: Java
  Description : base tools for developing applications for the Android 
system

This source package will build several tools for developing and
building Android applications, e.g.

Draw 9-patch
Allows you to easily create a NinePatch graphic using a WYSIWYG
editor. It also previews stretched versions of the image, and
highlights the area in which content is allowed.

JOBB
Allows you to build encrypted and unencrypted APK expansion files
in Opaque Binary Blob (OBB) format.

lint
The Android lint tool is a static code analysis tool that checks
your Android project source files for potential bugs and
optimization improvements.

Android plugin for Gradle
 The Android build system consists of an Android plugin for Gradle.
 Gradle is an advanced build toolkit that manages dependencies and
 allows you to define custom build logic.
 You can build your Android apps from within Android Studio and from
 the command line on your machine or on machines where Android Studio
 is not installed (such as continuous integration servers).

This package will be maintained by the Android Tools Team and is part
of an ongoing effort to package the whole Android SDK eco-system for
Debian.

  Programming Lang: Java
  Description : Gradle plugin for JFlex, a scanner generator

The gradle-jflex-plugin makes it possible to integrate JFlex into the
Gradle build system. JFlex itself is a lexical analyzer generator that
takes as input a specification with a set of regular expressions and
corresponding actions. It generates a program (a lexer) that reads
input, matches the input against the regular expressions in the spec
file, and runs the corresponding action if a regular expression
matched.

gradle-jflex-plugin is a build-dependency for apktool but it is useful
for other Gradle based projects too that want to integrate JFlex
functionality.

That would be great. If 2.0 gets uploaded before we start the transition
with insubstantial, we can just close #801377. Otherwise I suggest to
use the normal NMU procedures which are raising the severity of this
issue to serious and waiting for a maintainer response. If Jose Robson
Mariano Alves agrees we can upload immediately or after we have been
waiting for a week without response.

No problem.

@Felix

We have to remove the CC-BY-SA-2.5 licensed images because the ftp team
considers this license to be non-free. CC-BY-SA-3.0 or CC-BY-SA-4.0
would be fine though.

Then there is

substance/src/main/resources/resource/katakana.ttf

The license states

substance/src/main/resources/resource/katakana.license

"D3-Factorism-Katakana is a free font created by Yoshiyasu Ito /
DigitalDreamDesign"

This one needs a clarification because it could also mean "free as in
free beer".

If neither of these licenses can be changed or clarified, I would
suggest to remove the files completely and to repack the tarball.

Felix, can you take care of this tomorrow? Otherwise the package looks
good to me and should be ready for an upload to experimental.

Hi Felix,

thanks for working on this, so that we can eventually remove libasm2-java!

I don't mind reviewing and sponsoring the package. Overall it already
looks pretty good to me but I still need to check the copyright file and
some other details.

> Here is the remaining TODO [1]
> - Build-Depends-Indep vs Build-Depends, espescially gradle-debian-helper!

It's fine to use Build-Depends exclusively here because we only build
arch:all packages. That means it makes no difference if you split the
build-dependencies between Build-Depends and Build-Depends-Indep. In
this case it is just a little bit more readable and simpler to use
Build-Depends.

> - gradle-debian-helper: less verbose build?

Verbose builds are preferable because automatic tools will be more able
to detect flaws at compile time.

> - test in pbuilder chroot (I cannot currently do this until Thursday
>   because of limited bandwidth)

The package builds fine in a cowbuilder chroot.

> - Tony: add Replaces: (or similar) tags for transition!

I don't think we even have to do this. The versions of the new packages
are greater and we keep the old names too. Thus the new binary packages
will simply replace the old ones. The new binary packages provided by
src:insubstantial install completely new artifacts with different names.
Hence I don't see how there could be a conflict. We will also make sure
that all reverse-dependencies will build against the new version and
then we just have to upload everything in one go.

Exactly. I will take a closer look at the package now and I intend to
upload insubstantial to experimental tomorrow, if nobody voices any
concerns.

Bug#768200: annex: changing from ITP to RFP

[Markus Koschany]

I maintain Megaglest for Debian. At the moment I am not interested
enough to package this content package for Megaglest but I think
packaging it would be a good opportunity for someone to get involved
with Debian Games in general.

Whoever wants to package Annex for Debian should be prepared to help
with maintaining Megaglest. The current package should be split into
megaglest-engine and megaglest to make it possible to install Annex and
Megaglest together.

I have tested the game with this approach and it works fine at a first
glance. However I also noticed a segmentation fault later on but I was
not sure whether Annex or Megaglest were causing it. It would also be
great if Annex could provide the same amount of quality source material
as megaglest-data, so someone should get in contact with the author and
ask him to release svg images and Gimp files if they are available.

Hi Jonas,

Emmanuel has recently packaged the latest antlr4 release. The package is
currently waiting in the NEW queue.

Bug#787953: depends on obsolete libasm2-java library

[Markus Koschany]

Hello,

FTR: As already noted in the initial bug report, substance and its
dependency liblaf-widget-java are unmaintained. Last version was
released in 2010.

https://java.net/projects/substance

Last Github snapshot:

https://github.com/kirillcool/substance

substance was forked into insubstantial:

https://github.com/Insubstantial/insubstantial

and Felix Natter (CCed) intended to maintain it for Debian (#787953).

Unfortunately insubstantial is also unmaintained now and still depends
on asm2.

I think it only makes sense to replace substance and its libraries with
insubstantial when upstream development continues and asm2 is replaced
with a newer, Java 7+ compatible version.

I am going to file bug reports against Jajuk and bgfinancas which depend
on substance and ask that they either move away from substance or take
over maintenance.

I have opened an upstream bug report for Jajuk already:

https://github.com/jajuk-team/jajuk/issues/1994


Regards,

Markus

You can usually reuse the poms from maven.org. You can either use
javahelper + jh_maven_repo_helper

https://packages.qa.debian.org/libj/libjide-oss-java.html

or you can also depend on maven-debian-helper in addition to your normal
build system and install them too.

I think we figure that out as soon insubstantial is ported to
libasm4-java. Just ask on debian-java for a review.

Cheers,

Markus

My concerns are not about building insubstantial with asm2. That works.
I query whether it makes sense to switch from one unmaintained project
(substance, liblaf-widget-java, trident, etc) to another one
(insubstantial).

http://speling.shemnon.com/blog/2013/06/08/insubstantial-needs-a-new-maintainer/

If you really intend to maintain insubstantial you should be prepared to
do development work as bug fixing or switching from asm2 to asm5 too.
Otherwise we and you invest a lot of time for a switch but without a
significant gain.


> [2] triplea 1.8 will require insubstantial (7.3):

The Debian package of triplea currently recommends substance and I think
this will remain when 1.8 is packaged. Making a LAF-theme optional is
one of the solutions I can think of.

Careful. asm2 was released ten years ago and is currently packaged in
libasm2-java. The latest version of asm is packaged in libasm4-java
(actually asm5). I have only filed those bug reports because I would
like to see modern packages use the latest version of asm and not
something from the last decade. So libasm4-java is fully supported
upstream. I just care and want to clean up a little and to remove (very)
old packages. Maintaining several versions of the same library in Debian
should be the exception, even for Java.

I have to further discuss this with the upstream developer of Jajuk but
he indicated that he could be willing to switch to Nimbus as the default
theme. He might also be interested in helping you to port insubstantial
to asm5 (libasm4-java). I will ask him.

That would be definitely one of the preferred options to solve this issue.

I see the following option:

1. Go ahead and package insubstantial as one source package that
provides the old binary packages from substance, trident,
liblaf-widget-java, etc. Maven poms should be provided as well. If you
also provide a patch to build with libasm4-java we could easily replace
the old dependencies for jajuk, bgfinancas, triplea and freeplane with
your new version and remove libasm2-java from Debian. (only
jasperreports would be an open issue but I would invest the time to fix
this package myself)

Win-Win situation

2. Make substance an optional theme and use Nimbus or other standard themes.

3. Do not depend on unmaintained software like substance at all. ;-)

Cheers,

Markus

Hi,

just FYI: there was once another package with the same name included in
Debian

I think collisions are unlikely but the devil is in the detail.

Bug#799106: ITP: jboss-xnio -- simplified low-level I/O layer for NIO

[Markus Koschany]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Markus Koschany <a...@gambaru.de>

* Package name: jboss-xnio
  Version : 3.3.2
  Upstream Author : Red Hat, Inc.
* URL : http://xnio.jboss.org
* License : Apache-2.0
  Programming Lang: Java
  Description : simplified low-level I/O layer for NIO

 XNIO is a simplified low-level I/O layer which can be used anywhere
 you are using non-blocking I/O today. It frees you from the hassle of
 dealing with Selectors and the lack of NIO support for multicast
 sockets and non-socket I/O, while still maintaining all the
 capabilities present in NIO, and it opens the door to non-obvious
 optimizations.
 .
 XNIO provides a unique API for combining blocking and non-blocking
 operations, even on the same channel, allowing you to take advantage
 of the simplicity and low latency of blocking I/O while still gaining
 the thread-conservative and throughput benefits of non-blocking I/O.

jboss-xnio is a dependency for undertow
(http://bugs.debian.org/767001) and will be maintained within the Debian
Java team.
