Bug#778546: RFS: miceamaze/4.2-1 -- video game with mice in a maze

You have addressed the blocking issue, uploaded to Debian. OK thank you very much. I'm not sure I can fix this, because all I do is ask for SDL to setup a full-screen OpenGL display, but don't think it is possible to specify the behavior on multi-screen. It sounds like SDL2 might have better support for this. I'm adding a bug report to my github project, so I can remember to check this when switching to SDL 2. Yes. Actually I had checked this list and noticed nothing applied for miceamaze. I have added the changelog entry. BTW, since that entry isn't related to the new upstream release there was no need to indent it under that item in debian/changelog. yes, that's right Did I do that? The only thing I changed is experimental instead of unstable. Is it what you are talking about? I'm talking about the change from Priority optional to extra in debian/control, which you mentioned in the debian/changelog entry for 1.8-2. OK I see. Last time I checked, SDL2 was not shipped with most linux distributions (in stable releases) so I wanted to wait. Fair enough. I'm surprised because gcc never complained about missing includes. I will look into that later (this is not fixed in this release). The includes aren't completely missing so gcc would not complain, the include-what-you-use tool complains about indirectly including headers via other headers instead of directly including them, when you directly use their functions/macros/classes. The reason is that doing only direct includes reduces the amount of code the compiler has to parse, which speeds things up. It also helps with the other goal of include-what-you-use, which is to remove headers that are no longer used. At least this is how I interpret it. ok I understand I agress this might have been another option, but actually I did not make this change myself and the other developped preferred to do like this. I see. It is probably too late to change since the images are already combined and can't be un-combined unless the other developer has a copy of the original images? Perhaps you could discuss the idea with them? That's true but I cannot provide anything better because I just downloaded it like this and did not change anything. I see. It is a bit sad you can't change the music in the same ways as the original person did, but that is your choice I guess. So if I want to fix that, I should build two packages: miceamaze with the binary file and miceamaze-data with the rest? Indeed, some info about that on the wiki. https://wiki.debian.org/PkgSplit ok thanks -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise Regards, Raphael

Hi Felipe, Do you have some time for sponsoring of these two packages? (sfarklib and sfarkxtc) Or should we ask someone else? Best regards, Ruben Thanks for that. The changes look fine to me, and thanks a heap for the get-orig-source target, it worked like a dream. From my point of view the package is ready for Felipe to take a look when he is available.

simple shell question
Hi all, I am wondering about the following, what is the practical difference in a shell script between [ $foo ] and [ -n $foo ] or [ ! $foo ] and [ -z $foo ] Looking up their literal meaning shows that they are different of course, but is there also a practical difference?

Bug#778729: (no subject)
Actually, the upstream project name is git-tools as there's a bunch more utilities included. I dropped three that were obsolete or redundant, and bundled three others, yet the package name I used reflects only what I consider to be the main meat. I would strongly recommend the source package name be git-tools (or similar) to match upstream, even if the binary package is, for example, git-restore-mtime (although even here I am not sure that is wise).

Bug#778729: RFS: git-restore-mtime/1.0.0-1 [ITP]
Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: wishlist Hi folks! I am looking for a sponsor for my package git-restore-mtime. * Package name: git-restore-mtime Version : 1.0.0-1 Upstream Author : Rodrigo Silva (MestreLion) li...@rodrigosilva.com * URL : https://github.com/MestreLion/git-tools * License : GPL3+ Section : vcs It builds those binary packages: git-restore-mtime - set timestamps to the date of a file's last commit The m.d.n page: http://mentors.debian.net/package/git-restore-mtime Dgettable .dsc: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/git-restore-mtime/git-restore-mtime_1.0.0-1.dsc It's a tool that, when ran in a git repository, sets each file's mtime to the date of most recent commit that changed that file -- ie, an approximation of what mtimes are supposed to do. This is nice when making a release tarball, or if you're using git for storing something else than a program's sources. Actually, the upstream project name is git-tools as there's a bunch more utilities included. I dropped three that were obsolete or redundant, and bundled three others, yet the package name I used reflects only what I consider to be the main meat. My reason is, the name git-tools is too generic, and git-restore-mtime is what users would be looking for. If you disagree with my judgement, please say so!
