Hi Moaz,

your orig.tar.gz seems to contain the complete git history from upstream, which 
doesn't seem to useful. I suggest redoing the orig without the .git 
subdirectory.

Kind Regards

Hello Markus,

I'm not a DD so can't sponsor your package, but here's a review:

- Please consider using a dep5-style copyright file
  (https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/)
- Please check if your package complies to the current version of the Debian 
  Policy, which is version 4.1.0
  (https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/upgrading-checklist.txt)
- There's an empty debian/robocut.menu file, it should be removed

Cheers,
  Andreas

There are some files that have headers with - Copyright (c) 2017.
But debian/copyright file was not refreshed.

Please update debian/copyright file.

Re: Bug#875876: RFS: python-dtcwt/0.12.0-1

[Ghislain Vaillant]

The copyright you quoted applies to the code from the original
implementation in MATLAB.

This code is a complete rewrite in Python, so the original copyright should
not apply. Not sure why this file is provided since the two code bases are
different.

Anyway I am open to hear from a second opinion from d-legal.

python-dtcwt is in Debian since 2015, but ORIGINAL_README.txt[0]
file is a bit problematic. I need someone to do a second check on
copyright.

[0] - 
https://anonscm.debian.org/git/debian-science/packages/python-dtcwt.git/tree/ORIGINAL_README.txt

It is said:

"This code is copyright and is supplied free of charge for research
purposes only. In return for supplying the code, all I ask is that, if
you use the algorithms, you give due reference to this work in any
papers that you write and that you let me know if you find any good
applications for the DT CWT. If the applications are good, I would be
very interested in collaboration. I accept no liability arising from use
of these algorithms."

 - ... free of charge for research only ...
 - ... all I ask is ... let me know if you find any good ...

The package is BSD, but COPYING.txt file says:

"This licence applies to any parts of this library which are novel in comparison
to the original DTCWT MATLAB toolbox written by Nick Kingsbury and Cian
Shaffrey. See the ORIGINAL_README.txt file for details on any further
restrictions of use."

It does not look to be in "main" to me.

git problem with upstream branch

[Felix Natter]

hello mentors,

in the process of updating knopflerfish-osgi, I pulled the latest
changes from master branch branch before adding my changes, but not from
the upstream and pristine-tar branches (which contained upstream/5.2.0).

So when I tried to push the new upstream/6.1.1, I had to pull, and of
course got merge conflicts (while pulling):

$ git push
Enter passphrase for key '/home/felix/.ssh/id_rsa': 
To git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-java/knopflerfish-osgi.git
 ! [rejected]upstream -> upstream (non-fast-forward)
error: failed to push some refs to 
'git+ssh://fnatter-gu...@git.debian.org/git/pkg-java/knopflerfish-osgi.git'
hint: Updates were rejected because the tip of your current branch is behind
hint: its remote counterpart. Integrate the remote changes (e.g.
hint: 'git pull ...') before pushing again.
hint: See the 'Note about fast-forwards' in 'git push --help' for details.

I aborted the merge, and ran:
$ git pull --strategy=ours
Merge made by the 'ours' strategy.

(in order to keep the upstream/6.1.1 changes and discard the
upstream/5.2.0 changes) which seems to work.

The history is:
$ git log -3
commit 8710f8e5d2b81805b82dc4a0f11d5dd20032a5a7 (HEAD -> upstream)
Merge: b2511e0 0872330

Merge branch 'upstream' of 
git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-java/knopflerfish-osgi into upstream

commit b2511e0431fdc9acbd2895bac3702f863de0944e (tag: upstream/6.1.1)
Author: Felix Natter 
Date:   Sat Sep 16 10:05:50 2017 +0200

Author: Emmanuel Bourg 
Date:   Mon Oct 3 15:37:31 2016 +0200

New upstream version 5.2.0

$ git diff upstream/6.1.1..HEAD


The package builds, and I see:
[...]
gbp:info: Creating knopflerfish-osgi_6.1.1.orig.tar.xz from 'upstream/6.1.1'
[...]

Regarding the pristine-tar branch, I just merged it without conflicts,
of course.

I have pushed all branches here:
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-java/knopflerfish-osgi.git

I think I am safe, did I miss anything?

The only difference between .sig and .asc is that .asc is ASCII-armored.

I think I've already answered that. You need to put it in the same

Most likely because the old dist-upgrade doesn't have anything to do with
that.
And the recent dist-upgrade changed your /usr/bin/gpg to v.2.

Of course not. apt doesn't touch user files.

You asked where did you get a v.2 GnuPG. Here is the answer. I didn't

Use sbuild or pbuilder.

That doesn't matter. You are making packages for Debian. You ned to do

Yes, but the result is not suitable for inclusion in Debian.
