Package: wnpp Severity: normal
I request an adopter for the nant package as I no longer use or have interest in .NET/mono. The package description is: NAnt is different. Instead of a model where it is extended with shell-based commands, NAnt is extended using task classes. Instead of writing shell commands, the configuration files are XML-based, calling out a target tree where various tasks get executed. Each task is run by an object that implements a particular Task interface. There are two serious bugs on nant: 1) #475213: nant: FTBFS: [csc] /build/user/nant-0.85/src/NAnt.DotNet/Tasks/ScriptTask.cs(519,50): error CS0612: `System.Reflection.Assembly.LoadWithPartialName(string)' is obsolete http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=475213 This isn't important I feel, since once built by the maintainer, nant never needs rebuilding. 2) #374634: nant: includes binary-only copies of nunit, SharpZipLib and log4net in source tarball (DFSG ยง2 violation) http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=374634 Requires a tedious and complex dive into nant's wierd build system. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
