Taking over maintainership of gringotts
Hello, I would like to take over maintainership of gringotts. I contacted Wesley J. Landaker last week and sent him an updated packages (closing some bugs and upgrading upstream version). Here is a resume of changes I've made: libgringotts - - Call dh_autoreconf to update the build system files making it more portable and getting rid of a lintian warning about 'ancient-libtool' - Update Standards-Version to 3.9.3 - Stop shipping libgringotts.la file closing (#633167) gringotts - - Standards version 3.9.3 - Fix the location of desktop file. Updated to current standards and remove empty TryExec and X-GNOME-DocPath key - Call xdg-open to open README and FAQ menu items (closes: #639579) I have to say I've split the packages again since some software is using libgringotts (osmo for example) and I think it would be easier to package new upstream versions this way. Moreover, the functionality is well differentiated. He told me to contact here and try to find a sponsor. I have read 'intro-maintainers' from mentors.debian.net and I'm not sure if I have to send an ITA against wnpp ... I can upload the packages to mentors for review but I prefer to wait for instructions. Thanks in advance. Regards, signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Thanks Arno, but since Bart seems to be reviewing these packages, I suppose he will sponsor them. Bart, I made the changes requested in your comments but I'm not sure if I have to re-upload the packages bumping a new revision 1.2.10.-2 or I keep them on revision -1. Another doubt is with bug #633167. It belongs to gringotts source package but whit the split I can't close it in libgringotts. I think we'll have to close it manually, won't we?

Help with bug 722794
Hello, I've received a bug in one of my packages and I want to check with you a proper solution before I make a stupid thing. The bug number is 722794. I've been investigating the problem with linkage and I see it comes from package libmcrypt-dev, more precisly from a script it installs '/usr/bin/libmcrypt-config'. I'm not sure if /usr/lib is a worng place to install libs in a multiarch system but I have amd64 and that library is installed there. The build system do in configure.in: MCRYPT_CFLAGS=`libmcrypt-config --cflags` MCRYPT_LIBS=`libmcrypt-config --libs` And that is translated to: libtool: compile: gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I/usr/include -Wall -Wpointer-arith -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -g -O2 -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -Wformat -Werror=format-security -c libgrg_tmp.c -fPIE -o libgrg_tmp.o >/dev/null 2>&1 /bin/bash ../libtool --tag=CC --mode=link gcc -g -O2 -fPIE -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -Wformat -Werror=format-security -version-info 2:7:0 -fPIE -pie -Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-z,now -o libgringotts.la -rpath /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu libgrg_crypt.lo libgrg_structs.lo libgrg_utils.lo libgrg_tmp.lo -lz -lbz2 -L/usr/lib -lmcrypt -lmhash -lm libtool: link: gcc -shared -fPIC -DPIC .libs/libgrg_crypt.o .libs/libgrg_structs.o .libs/libgrg_utils.o .libs/libgrg_tmp.o -lz -lbz2 -L/usr/lib /usr/lib/libmcrypt.so -lmhash -lm -O2 -Wl,-z -Wl,relro -Wl,-z -Wl,now -Wl,-soname -Wl,libgringotts.so.2 -o .libs/libgringotts.so.2.0.7 So this line seems to be a problem '-L/usr/lib /usr/lib/libmcrypt.so' So my questions are, is it ok to install by hand (admin) a lib into /usr/lib as YunQiang Su says? Can someone try this on a non official or different port? And sorry if I didn't explain myself ok, this is my first filled bug ;-) Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Gianfranco, Sorry for this late replay, I've been working on your advices and meanwhile packaging a new released version (4.6.4). You'll see in this new version I had to repack upstream sources to make the package DFSG compliant. Oliver did it with a script (prep.sh); I've used uscan and excluding files in debian/copyright (hope it's correct). It's uploaded to mentors[0]. Thanks and regards, P.D: On mentors, the watch file seems that doesn't work but on my devel machine is working properly ??

Bug#836215: RFS: phalanx/25-1 [ITA]
Hi Gianfranco, Thanks for reviwing! I must say I've addressed most of your points but testing the new version (25), I've found that it doesn't work as expected in Scid. Scid has a feature to play versus Phalanx (tactical game) but it needs a special version. The package in sid works well while new version only works if you choose the option to play a specific opening. Apart from that, the engine works well both in scid (analyzing) and xboard (analyzing and playing with). I've tried to figure out the changes done to phalanx-scid engine but I don't come by with a solution. So don't know if it's better to fix and improve the version in sid (22+d051004) while asking Scid upstream to import the new version of Phalanx and knowing what changes need to be tweaked. What do you think? Regards, pgp3RgkkHVa86.pgp Description: PGP signature

Hi Gianfranco, All right, I prefer to fix and improve the actual version and not trim useful features that I as a user, would like to have. I've uploaded the new debian revision to mentors[0]. To keep the previous work I have created a new branch (debian/sid) where I cherry-picked changes. Thanks for your help and suggestions!

Lintian warnings converting copyright to machine-readable
Hello!, I'm packaging gigalomania and want to convert copyright to machine-readable format but I'm having lintian warnings I don't know how to fix. The original copyright is here: http://gigalomania.sourceforge.net/#licences There are a lot of images with different authors embedded into single files. For that reason I had to write a lot of license names on the License field. Every license name is described in a stand-alone License paragraph at the end of the copyright file. Ex: License: CC-BY-SA-3.0 or GPL-2.0-only or GPL-3.0-or-later or CC0-1.0 or CC-BY-3.0 or LGPL-2.1-or-later or GPL-2.0-or-later I have saw this in other source packages, not so exaggerated, of course.

Well my problem is that upstream's software is intended to build just an executable and I'm building a shared library.

Another thing is it seems there's a RFP using the same name [1], what should I do? Thanks in advance!

Help with python2 removal in scid package
Hello,
I 'm triyng to port it to python3 (bug #938443) but I'm no sure if I'm doing it
well.
There's only one utility, pgnfix, that uses python at all and I've imported a
patch to make it work with python3.
I've build the package in a clean environment (cowbuilder) and seems to be
using python 3 as a dependency but at the end dh_python3 is generating a
dependency on "python2:any".
This is the relevant part of .build log:

I have commited the changes to https://salsa.debian.org/josgalo-guest/scid.
Also it's uploaded to mentors (https://mentors.debian.net/package/scid/) in
case it helps.
Any advice on how to solve this would be appreciated.

Error when building using iconv to convert problematic encondings to UTF-8
Dear mentors, I'm working on importing a new upstream version for scid package and I want to get rid of "national-encoding" lintian warning. I'm trying to use iconv to convert problematic encondings to UTF-8 but I always get an error, no matter where I put instructions (override_dh_auto_install, override_dh_install). Files exists when the command is launched ... I have pushed my changes to a devel branch[0]. To build from that branch I use `gbp buildpackage --git-debian-branch=devel`. --- Output --- iconv -f ISO-8859-15 -t UTF-8 -o /home/josgalo/devel/debian/packaging/scid/build-area/scid-4.7.4+dfsg1/debian/tmp/scid/usr/share/scid/tcl/lang/hungary.tcl \ /home/josgalo/devel/debian/packaging/scid/build-area/scid-4.7.4+dfsg1/debian/tmp/scid/usr/share/scid/tcl/lang/hungary.tcl make[1]: *** [debian/rules:23: override_dh_auto_install] Error del bus make[1]: se sale del directorio '/home/josgalo/devel/debian/packaging/scid/build-area/scid-4.7.4+dfsg1' make: *** [debian/rules:9: binary] Error 2 dpkg-buildpackage: fallo: fakeroot debian/rules binary subprocess returned exit status 2 --- Could you point me where the error is? Or get some examples from other packages. Thank you very much! [0]https://salsa.debian.org/josgalo-guest/scid/-/tree/devel Regards, pgpC8VN_GMNCx.pgp Description: PGP signature

You're right it breaks program menus[0]. Once I handle to use iconv properly I see it ...
