Re: Multilicense `debian/copyright` file
Le Sat, Jul 14, 2012 at 01:09:21AM -0400, Aliaksei Sheshka a écrit : Hi debian-devel list! Please help me to write a proper `debian/copyright` file. Original COPYING file says: Several parties hold copyright to various parts of IRRToolSet. One or more of the following licenses may apply to the code contained within this distribution. 1. USC (and occasionally USC/IBM) license . 2. RIPE NCC license 3. GNU General Public License version 2 ... What should put in the `debian/copyright` then ? Dear Aliaksei, your question is more suited for the debian-mentors@lists.d.o list, so I am transferring the discussion there. The Debian Policy's section 12.5 describes the requirements for the Debian copyright file. http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-docs.html#s-copyrightfile Note that it is not required to list exhaustively which file names correspond to which license, and that years of publication for one copyright holder may be gathered together.

plug-ins in /usr/local/share don't find include files in ../include
Hi all, This morning I filed bug 681558 [1] against my co-maintained package cacti. When I was filing it, I was under the impression that the solution would be simple, creating a soft-link from /usr/local/share/cacti/include - /usr/share/cacti/site/include. Before I starting implementing it I decided to have a look at the policy about such things, but unfortunately, unless I am much mistaken, this is not allowed (section 9.1.2) [2]. So my question is how to deal with the following problem. Since cacti 0.8.8, the package supports plug-in architecture. This means that the system administrator can add plug-ins to his installation to enhance the functionality of cacti. As cacti is installed in /usr/share/cacti, and the administrator is not supposed to add site specific things there, I decided to let the admin put his plug-ins in /usr/local/share/cacti/plugins and soft-link /usr/share/cacti/site/plugins to that location. The bug I filed [1], is about how this fails as some (or all, I have not tested yet), assume that they are installed in a sub-directory of the main cacti installation (including things like ../include/auth.php). I already requested [3] upstream to allow for a system where the plugin directory can be configured and I assume these kind of problems will, if accepted, go away automatically. But until then, should I just consider plug-ins that do this broken, and write in README.Debian that admins could create a soft-link themselves (after I confirm that this really solves the issue), or are there other possibilities that I have not thought of so far? Are there other packages that have similar demands or problems?

I'm not really expert in packaging but I can try ;) :-) In case you are intereested in beeing sponsored by me I woudl really like if you could commit your packaging to Debian Science team maintenance (either SVN or Git at your personal preference - in case you agree to my suggestion above I'd move libgtkdatabox from SVN to Git if this is your prefered VCS). I just applied to join the Debian Science project on alioth, I'll be happy to host gtkdataboxmm there (I prefer git, if that is not a problem for you) If it would be a problem for me I would not have written either SVN or Git at your personal preference. :-) Just tell me if you are accepted to Debian Science team (I'm not admin) and you have commited the packaging. Meanwhile I have uploaded libgtkdatabox and I might consider moving the current state to Git to maintain some consistency.
