RFS: esmtp (updated package)
Dear mentors,
I'm Cc'in Jose the upstream author, and previous maintainer for esmtp
in Debian, which is now orphaned. See http://bugs.debian.org/561302
I preprared a QA upload for esmtp. I would like to hear some comments,
and if you find it ok, to upload it in case. The only thing is missed
yet, I know, is updated translations from the debconf templates.
The full changelog for the current version I prepared is the
following:
---(debian/changelog)---
esmtp (1.2-1) unstable; urgency=low
* QA upload.
+ Set maintainer to Debian QA Group packa...@qa.debian.org
* New upstream release (Closes: #558390).
* debian/control:
- Bump Build-Depends for debhelper (= 7).
- Add Homepage field.
- Add ${misc:Depends} to Depends field for the esmtp-run binary package
stanza.
- Slightly improve synopsis for esmtp and esmtp-run binary packages.
* Bump compat level for debhelper to 7.
* debian/esmtp.changelogs: Drop ChangeLog from file since this is installed
automatically by dh_installchangelogs.
* Add russian translation for debconf template. Thanks to Yuri Kozlov for
submitting the translation. (Closes: #543186).
* Convert to '3.0 (quilt)' source package format.
* Add patch to fix typo in esmtprc(5) manpage reported by Jakub Wilk.
(Closes: #528343).
* debian/rules: simplify rules makefile to a tiny rules file.
* debian/esmtp.post{inst,rm}: Set the set -e flag to ensure that the script's
execution is aborted when any executed command fails.
* Refresh debian/copyright to the revision 135 of DEP5 proposal for machine
readable format-specification of copyright file.
* debian/esmtp.config: Set explicitly set -e instead of passing -e to the
shell in the shebang.
* Add fix_hyphen-used-as-minus-sign.patch to fix lintian warnings about
missused hyphens in manpages esmtp(1) and esmtprc(5).
* Referesh debian/templates to fix malformed-prompt-in-templates lintian
warnings.
* Switch from _Choices to __Choices in debian/templates spliting choises
list.
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.3.
* Add debian/watch file to monitor new upstream versions released.

It builds these binary packages:
esmtp - user configurable relay-only MTA
esmtp-run - user configurable relay-only MTA - the regular MTA
The package appears to be lintian clean.
The upload would fix these bugs: 528343, 543186, 558390
The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/e/esmtp
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main
contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/e/esmtp/esmtp_1.2-1.dsc
I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.
Kind regards
Salvatore Bonaccorso

I'm planning to request lintian override. If anybody has a better suggestion please let me know. Never mind -- I've just learned about --as-needed ld flag that solves both issues. Please note the --as-needed flag does some black magic so unless you know what it does and have tested things still work in every condition be carefull with it. Usually it is easier to just reduce the needed dependencies. For example by giving the make call a fixed LIBS= argument to override the one written to the Makefile, modifying the LIBS= line in Makefile or by adding your own config script filtering stuff out. The easiest in your case seems to be to change all $(MAKE) in your debian/rules with $(MAKE) LIBS=-lesmtp. I'd also suggest to give configure a LDFLAGS=-Wl,-z,defs to make sure nothing bad happens. BTW: if you contact upstream, please also tell them to: 1) never ever add -I (or -D) to CFLAGS (it belongs to CPPFLAGS) 2) not to output -I/usr/include, -L/usr/lib or -L/lib it only make logs more hard to read.

RFS: esmtp (updated package)
Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 1.0-1 of my package esmtp. It builds these binary packages: esmtp - User configurable relay-only MTA esmtp-run - User configurable relay-only MTA The package is lintian clean, with the exception of the possible-gpl-code-linked-with-openssl message reported by recent lintian versions. I believe this error does not apply to this package since it does not depend on openssl directly. It depends on libesmtp, which is LGPL, which in turns depends on openssl. Unfornately, the upstream build links with -lssl anyway (probably for static linking sake), so the binary has a bunch of unneeded dependencies: dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: dependency on libdl.so.2 could be avoided if debian/esmtp/usr/bin/esmtp were not uselessly linked against it (they use none of its symbols). dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: dependency on libssl.so.0.9.8 could be avoided if debian/esmtp/usr/bin/esmtp were not uselessly linked against it (they use none of its symbols). dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: dependency on libcrypto.so.0.9.8 could be avoided if debian/esmtp/usr/bin/esmtp were not uselessly linked against it (they use none of its symbols). dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: dependency on libpthread.so.0 could be avoided if debian/esmtp/usr/bin/esmtp were not uselessly linked against it (they use none of its symbols).

I know that usually, running “apt-cache show” is sufficient, but it might be interesting to be able to follow the link to upstream directly from here. What do you think? Also, you could include an “Homepage” field in the source part of your debian/control file. See dpkg/1.14.7's Debian changelog entry. The policy isn't updated yet (nor lintian) but a consensus was reached on debian-devel, so I think it might be good to start using it. Thanks for the info, Cyril. I agree entirely with your suggestions. As debian user, I felt the need for a standard way to find packages upstream homepages several times, and I'm glad it got finally standardized. For reference, esmtp's homepage is http://esmtp.sourceforge.net/ and I'm actually the upstream author.

On Homepage links [was: RFS: esmtp (updated package)]
José Fonseca [EMAIL PROTECTED] (13/10/2007): Hi, Hello, I'd appreciate if a DD could sponsor the upload of esmtp (user configurable relay-only MTA): I'm no DD, etc., you know the drill. Name: esmtp Version: 0.6.0-1 Uploaded: 2007-09-03 17:27:01 Description: esmtp - User configurable relay-only MTA esmtp-run - User configurable relay-only MTA Repository URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/e/esmtp Closes bugs: 394847, 407101, 432633 I'm wondering whether it could be interesting to include a link to the upstream homepage in the template. I know that usually, running “apt-cache show” is sufficient, but it might be interesting to be able to follow the link to upstream directly from here. What do you think? Also, you could include an “Homepage” field in the source part of your debian/control file. See dpkg/1.14.7's Debian changelog entry. The policy isn't updated yet (nor lintian) but a consensus was reached on debian-devel, so I think it might be good to start using it. Cheers, -- Cyril Brulebois PS: Sorry for somehow hijacking that thread, but I really wanted to see esmtp's homepage, and it looked like that subject wasn't talked about lately. pgplEKsQa2XGs.pgp Description: PGP signature

debian/control file. See dpkg/1.14.7's Debian changelog entry. The policy isn't updated yet (nor lintian) but a consensus was reached on lintian (at least version 1.23.34) does no more complain about unknown field for Homepage in source stanza of debian/control; mine changelog to find the version from when it is acceptable.

lintian (at least version 1.23.34) does no more complain about unknown field for Homepage in source stanza of debian/control; mine changelog to find the version from when it is acceptable. FSVO complain. OMG, I'm sorry.. I did the test on pkgs with no Homepage file in there I should go sleep earlier... :) -- Sandro Tosi (aka Morpheus, matrixhasu) My (little) site: http://matrixhasu.altervista.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
