I would really like to have trac in DPMT (or more activity in the

commithooks [1] which integrate darcs, mercurial and git with trac and
debbugs but should use trac's included post-commit scripts and
consists of some Python and bash scripts.

I'm using trac and commithooks and would like to help with better
Debian support for both.

 I think, it's in the similar category as Django etc. i.e. it is
 a base technology on that you install plugins. It is, however,
 more specialised (focus on project management) and you can use
 it without writing your own application opposed to Django etc.

question is: are these plugins installed in trac's directory or do they
import trac?

AFAIK, this depends on the package. Typical plugins are
installed into Trac directories, but they have also to import
trac to use the APIs.

I'm currently not near my trac server, but I remember that
email2trac is installed under /usr/bin and uses the Trac API by
from trac import  Installation outside of Trac directories
is, however, an exception. CMIIW.

I've looked at this scripts and found them not very accurate. So as for
me, I've decided to use trac-post-commit-hook from trac distribution
and simple shell scipt to run it in right time.

There are two modes of installation: putting the .egg to the concrete
Trac instance and installing it site-wide in the PYTHONPATH. You're
probably referring to former.

Distribution-friendly way is latter.

Than I was wrong. I thought that plugins can go into a site-wide
Trac directory, but you are right. So anybody vetoing against
moving Trac to DPMT? You have three seconds... :~)

Given that (1) pkg-trac was inactive the last months and that
(2) interested Trac team members can easily join DPMT, and (3) a
new upstream version is needed desperately by some users, I will
probably start migration tomorrow. Depends on the weather.

Hi!

I have some of the trac-plugins ITA/ITPed and would probably consider
following trac itself into one of the python Teams. However I wonder how
the $VCS will be handled, throwing away trac's git history doesn't sound
like a good idea to me.

As my packages have (following trac itself) a git history and the one
I've ITA-ed has some HG history I'm interested in what the team thinks
so I can decide if / what to move in.


Regards

Christoph

We're thinking about migrating the modules/apps teams repositories to git for a
long time, actually there is even a plan (at least in my head) to make it
possible to have modules in git or svn while still being able to checkout all of
them in a useful way, but that means writing new code, and I didn't have the
time to do so yet.

Dropping the history doesn't make sense indeed, so I'm not sure what the best
way to handle this is *now* - on the long run I;m sure we'll find a way to
include it properly.

The git history would still exist. And we could also import the git
history into the SVN repository of DPMT. I never used git and I
currently don't have the time to learn new tools, so maybe somebody
could post the right command line to do this, please?

Maybe not yet: To me it would make sense to maintain Trac and
some Trac plugins in the same team and in the same VCS. DPMT
would be OK for Trac, but probably not for all the plugins,
that are never used by anything but Trac. So maybe PAPT is the
right choice then?

Please, note that MySQL support in Trac is still experimental.

Why Trac should belong to application is that Python Application is
something that should be run inside virtualenv. Trac is not a module,
but rather important piece of server software that should better be
updated alone with it's dependent libraries and probably independent
of main Python installation.

It really doesn't matter. The only thing is you shouldn't have a version 
number that is higher than the one in the next release.
Most of the people in the sec team prefer a version number that has the 
codename in the version, mainly to make it plain that this is a special update 
for this release. This was also adopted by the release team in the past, but 
as said it is not a requirement.

RFS: burn 0.4.3-2.1+lenny1 (Lenny security bug fixes)

2009-08-28 Thread Ben Finney
Howdy mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for the new release 0.4.3-2.1+lenny1 of my
package ‘burn’ in Lenny. Since it's implemented in Python, I'm asking on
both ‘debian-mentors’ and ‘debian-python’.

It builds these binary packages:
burn - Command line Data-CD, Audio-CD, ISO-CD, Copy-CD writing tool

The upload would fix these bugs: 542329, 542750

Both these bugs are tagged ‘security’, so the ‘urgency’ setting in the
changelog entry is ‘high’.

The debdiff against the version currently in Lenny (0.4.3-2.1) is online
at URL:http://pastebin.ca/1546649. If you want to sponsor this upload,
please apply that diff to the current Lenny package and upload the
result.

The acknowledgement from the ‘debian-release’ forum for this change to
go into Lenny (note that the diff being discussed had a version string
that was not correct; that has been fixed now) is at
URL:http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2009/08/msg00396.html.

Please let me know whether anything further needs to be done before this
package can be sponsored into Lenny.
