Correct. Don't think it is worth repacking though.

I will update d/copyright accordingly.

I don't care to be honest.

I Just run *sbuild *(as indicated on https://wiki.debian.org/sbuild) from
the new version package folder.
On ~/.sbuldrc I make this change:

$build_arch_all = 1;$distribution = 'unstable';

And I use lintian:

$run_lintian = 1;$lintian_opts = ['-i', '-I'];

It's .sbuildrc, not .sbuldrc...

One additional comment, your changelog entries lack explicitness.

"Update" means nothing if you don't provide further details.

What did you update in d/control and d/copyright? What for?

More explicit change logs will facilitate the work of future sponsors.

You should also ensure the packaging is up-to-date with current
standards (4.1.3).

The Upgrading-Checklist [1] can help you figure out what has changed
since version 3.9.8.

You should try your current packaging on a pbuilder, sbuild or chroot
targetting unstable and run a recent version of Lintian on it to check
for errors and warnings.

Jörg, I can sponsor this for you since I have been maintaining
shotwell in Ubuntu this year.

1. Please add a Breaks to shotwell instead of just a Replaces. It
wouldn't hurt to bump the version too like this:

Breaks: shotwell-common (<< 0.26.3-1)
Replaces: shotwell-common (<< 0.26.3-1)

I think you can remove this line though
Breaks: shotwell (<< 0.26.2-1)

2. Please remove all the obsolete patches from your debian/patches/
instead of just disabling them.

3. I'm attaching a patch to fix the install of appstream metadata.
You'll also need to modify debian/shotwell.install to install the
metadata.

From the AppStream guidelines [1], the metadata are to be installed

will trigger a warning [2].

It will import is as a module, no? You should not need rpath for public
extension modules. Look for usage of `runtime_library_dirs` in the
definition of the extension module within setup.py.


I've added a patch to give an empty argument to
runtime_library_dirs. The lintian warning went away, and the Python
extension still works.

Thank you.


These are very simple example programs only used together with the
documentation and their own source code. As such it feels a bit
strange for them to have manpages. I could also remove that binary
package, if you think that is better.


Ask yourself whether these are worth shipping. I suspect the examples
are more useful in source code form than binary.


I've changed the -examples package to just ship sources.


I believe that's wise.


By the way: I'm currently letting dh have its way with whether or not
it compresses the sources, which gives an inconsistent result. Should
I do something about this?


Yes, I'd advise to override dh_compress to exclude the examples from 
compression.



This was actually done on purpose. The examples are really meant to be
used together with the documentation, and as such I don't think the
warning applies here. Please let me know if I'm wrong.


Did you declare libgudhi-examples as a library package instead of misc
or doc by any chance (see Section field in d/control)? Then, the warning
would be accurate. Instead, ship the examples in source code form and
make the package Section: misc.


No problem. Glad to see your packaging work is progressing.

That's the classic issue with the copy of jquery generated by doxygen.

Are you sure your cowbuilder setup is ok? This is usually not a good sign:

I will. For now, upstream is interested in checking whether the 
precision problems that were affecting some architectures are solved. So 
we could expect another rc2 after that.

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.

In my humble opinion, Lintian should mark a warning when detecting this.
This could make some developers and/or packagers to reconsider chosen

And why should they? CC0 or Unlicense have clear terms. Problems arise when
upstream only specifies public domain without an explicit definition for it.

I just ran a test build on debomatic, and it is now riddled with

I believe this is symptomatic of a larger issue within the archive, 
since other Python packages I maintain have had a similar error raised

Since this is your very first submission of the package to the archive, 
the version should be 1.8.0-1.



It builds those binary packages:

python-pynmea2 - pynmea2 is a Python library for the NMEA 0183 protocol
python3-pynmea2 - pynmea2 is a Python3 library for the NMEA 0183 protocol


Please consider not packaging the Python 2 package unless there is a

* duplicate-short-description,
* vcs-field-uses-insecure-uri,

Hi Ghislain.

Please see [1] for an RFS bug template.

I have been contributing to Debian long-enough to get to know the RFS 
how-to. Thanks for the reminder anyway.



What is still missing in your report, is the link to the published
package itself you want to be sponsored.


You mean the tip of the packaging repository tagged with the Debian 
version matching the title of the RFS?



It should lead essentially to the `.dsc` file (m.d.n lists them
automatically if you upload there). Mentioning "it can be build with
gdb" is not enough and cloning Git repository in order to simply build
a package is a nuisance. Both put unnecessary restrictions on the
sponsorship process.


Funny you should say that, this advice to provide the link to the 
packaging repository was given to me by past sponsors. I have got months 
of past RFS processed that way.


In fact, you'd probably have to use the packaging repository to verify 
that the uploaded .dsc matches the tip of the packaging repository. So, 
one might as well just let the sponsor generate the .dsc himself, which 
is just one `gbp buildpackage -d -S` away.

Yes please :-)

There is also a new release of pybind11 in experimental (tag
debian/2.1.1-1 in the repository). Could you upload this one too?

I don't understand what needs to be fixed. Sphinx changed the way they
generate the documentation, so what?

Unless you can point me to what needs to be solved, and how, I don't
see what else can be done besides uploading the package as is.

Should there be a problem, then it should probably be fixed in Sphinx.
This package, as many others I maintain, uses a fairly standard Sphinx
configuration.

This issue is currently blocking my work on the spyder-terminal plugin,
for which coloredlogs is a dependency. Could you guys keep me updated
on the progress.

I'd be happy to take over if the motivation is gone.

This has to do with the change of behavior between Sphinx 1.4.x (Stretch)
and 1.5.x (Buster).

Same thing has happened with other packages uploaded recently, such as
python-latexcodec.

Re: Bug#864944: RFS: zimg/2.5.1-1 [ITP]

[Ghislain Vaillant]

Yes, drop z.lib in favor or zimg.

Besides, users would typically discover the library via pkg-config with
the `zimg` keyword or use it with the link flag -lzimg. Based on that,
it sounds to me that the canonical name for the library should be
(lib)zimg, not z.lib.

Naming is hard.
