Michael and others, Michael wrote earlier: Jan-Pascal, please prepare a version built in this way, I will then take another look at it and sponsor its upload.

Changes since the last upload: - New upstream version - Removed upstream's copy of the Net::NNTP pear library and use Debian-packaged lib instead (upstream included the library into the upstream source since the last upload) - Fix DEP-5 syntax errors in debian/copyright Earlier changes (not yet reviewed): - Implemented a get-orig-source target in debian/rules that gets the proper revision from github, removes the compressed js and css files and a non-distributable font file, and create the orig.tar.gz. - Updated debian/copyright to reflect the new situation.

Re: RFS: snes9x
(No need to CC me as I am subscribed to the mailing list) * Michael Moorman tensorpud...@devio.us [111003 07:30]: zsnes is now available for amd64 too, but you are right that a non-intel port is impossible. It is? I can't figure out how to build it for the amd64, and Debian doesn't build an amd64 package for zsnes. Does it involve building a 32-bit binary? It is, starting from wheezy : $ rmadison zsnes zsnes | 1.420-2.1| etch| source, i386 zsnes | 1.510-2.2| lenny | source, i386 zsnes | 1.510-2.2| squeeze | source zsnes | 1.510-2.2+b1 | squeeze | i386 zsnes | 1.510+bz2-1 | wheezy | source, amd64, i386 zsnes | 1.510+bz2-1 | sid | source, amd64, i386 I left the debian/copyright from the old packaging before the RoQA, I just want to make sure that the license that was included is still correct since the source doesn't provide any license information and their forum is hard to navigate. This is quite worrying. You should ask upstream to provide explicit licensing information in the tarball. Is the non-commercial use clause what makes it non-free according to the DFSG? Exactly. I can't sponsor your package as I am not a DD, but I had a look at it. - As the debexpo page shows, it has several lintian warnings : http://mentors.debian.net/package/snes9x I: snes9x source: quilt-patch-missing-description fix-typo.patch W: snes9x source: out-of-date-standards-version 3.8.4 (current is 3.9.2) I: snes9x-x: possible-documentation-but-no-doc-base-registration W: snes9x-gtk: binary-without-manpage usr/games/snes9x-gtk You managed to get more warnings out of lintian than I did! I uploaded what I had scraped together but I'm still working on writing a manpage for snes9x-gtk. When you run lintian on the changes file, it outputs warnings for binary packages too.

Hi Boris (2011.10.02_19:22:03_+0200) I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me. LGTM, uploaded. While I was there, I noticed that your copyright file contains some DEP5isms, but isn't DEP5 compatible. The package also has Vcs headers, that point at the upstream VCS rather than anything containing Debian packaging. I suggest joining collab-maint, and hosting a packaging git tree there.

Re: Re: RFS: leechcraft (closes ITP bug)
It builds those binary packages: leechcraft - Core executable of LeechCraft leechcraft-aggregator - RSS/Atom feed reader for LeechCraft [] None of the short descriptions make any sense to me without knowing what leechcraft is. Thank you for interest. Of cause I can describe in more detail. LeechCraft is a free open source cross-platform modular internet-client. It consists of a core which defines common plugin interfaces and a lot of plugins for different purposes. User can install any combination of them to achieve the necessary functionality. The main advantage of such approach is that modules could interact more closely than standalone programs in usual Desktop Environments. Thus, plugins can also rely on functionality provided by each other. Plugins could also have their own plugins: for example, support for different protocols or chat window styles in an IM client. Also developers don't reinvent the wheel for each protocol. They use existing solutions (rasterbar libtorrent for BitTorrent or QXmpp for XMPP protocol for example) if possible. And they contribute back their patches to the upstream in these cases. There are active developers command and quite wide community in the project. So it will improving in the future.
