I have /debian folder in original package. I recently read is not recommended but I found easier to manage to have it in the same mercurial repo. I have several questions: You'll have to change that in case you want to get the package into debian. release version --- The .deb was lintian clean on rel 0.8.6-rc5, then I did 'dch -v 0.8.6' and dch required -b option as felt 0.8.6-rc5 was grater than 0.8.6. it is. You should have used “0.8.6~rc5”, which sorts lower than “0.8.6”, while “0.8.6-rc5” sorts higher. dpkg --compare-versions is helpful here, if you don't know the details :) -- Bernd Zeimetz Debian GNU/Linux Developer GPG Fingerprints: 06C8 C9A2 EAAD E37E 5B2C BE93 067A AD04 C93B FF79 ECA1 E3F2 8E11 2432 D485 DD95 EB36 171A 6FF9 435F -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: lintian troubles ... almost done
2009/9/3 Alessandro Dentella san...@e-den.it: bad-distribution-in-changes-file If I run lintian on .changes it complains bad-distribution-in-changes-file but I'm unsure on what I should do. At present I'm building on an ubuntu-hardy so the name gets written in the changelog. There is nothing peculiar of one distro or another so I'm unsure what I should write. Not sure about Ubuntu, but for Debian, that'd always be “unstable” (unless you're uploading to another suite of course, but that's another story). fine thanks. I tryied 'sid', but that's clearly not accepted. For debian valid once are: experimental unstable (there others but they are not needed usually). And in general packages get uploaded to unstable. For ubuntu you should use the adjectives of a release eg karmic jaunty etc. for eg ppa uploads. Last question - When testing creating the package from my newly created sources on a newer machine (ubuntu 9.04), lintian complained: W: python-sqlkit: embedded-javascript-library usr/share/doc/python-sqlkit/html/_static/jquery.js That's clearly the jquery of the sphinx documentation. It's introduced in the upstream package when sphinx compile the docs (not at my build time). Is it mecessary to fix this or I can just leave it as is (it appears as a warning, not an error). Imho documentation should be build (rebuild) at deb package building stage. thanks again sandro *:-) -- Sandro Dentella *:-) http://sqlkit.argolinux.org SQLkit home page - PyGTK/python/sqlalchemy -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Menu entries not appearing
Hi, I tried to add a menu entry for application 'sqledit', but the entry does not appear if I use standard menu entry in debian as: ?package(python-sqlkit):needs=X11 section=Applications/Office\ title=sqledit command=/usr/bin/sqledit it gets placed in /usr/share/menu/python-sqlkit but it does not show in the menu. In postinst scipt I correctly see: if [ $1 = configure ] [ -x `which update-menus 2/dev/null` ]; then update-menus fi It *does* appear correctly if I place a sqlkit.desktop in /usr/share/applications. I'm doing something wrong with the menu entry? Is it ok to use only sqlkit.desktop? thanks again sandro *:-) -- Sandro Dentella *:-) http://sqlkit.argolinux.orgSQLkit home page - PyGTK/python/sqlalchemy -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

RFS: wtop (python-app)
Hello people, I'd like to know if any of you could sponsor/take a look at this top-like app which parses Apache's log to analyze the stats of a server. BTW, I've chosen 'experimental' as the distribution for this package basically because when I was testing this package I had little or no significant results, I believe it's due to my low (localhost) traffic, so I prefer to encourage people to test it and if it works fine, move it to unstable. This would close #486749 [0] I've uploaded it to PAPT SVN: svn://svn.debian.org/python-apps/packages/wtop/trunk/ and to mentors.d.n: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/w/wtop/wtop_0.6.3-1.dsc [0] http://bugs.debian.org/486749 Saludos, Mauro -- JID: lavaram...@jabber.org | http://lizaur.github.com/ 2B82 A38D 1BA5 847A A74D 6C34 6AB7 9ED6 C8FD F9C1 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
