Bug#773942: O: lynx-cur -- Text-mode WWW Browser with NLS support (development version)
Hello Atsuhito and Axel, First of all, thank you very much Atsuhito for all your work on lynx-cur package. And thank you Andy to want to take care of lynx-cur. This is a package with 91 bugs, 1 minor open security issue on stable and oldstable and an hi popcon (23596 install'). I suggest to work together on this important package with the help of a DD like Axel Beckert to sponsoring our upload. Maybe Axel could open a collab-maint git repository on alioth to work together ? I'm DM since 2009, and I have worked on severals packages: mc, fluxbox, qelectrotech, gtk-theme-switch, wmsun, wmmoonclock and some a11y packages. I will maintain mc and qelectrotech again after a 'short' break and Intend to adopt aaphoto package (on mentors repository). It will be a pleasure to work with you on lynx-cur :) Best regards Denis Briand signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
Bug#777694: I can help
I'm not a debian developer or maintainer...but I'd love to get there - and start by helping with this package. I use ICU packages often (especially with building boost) - please just let me know what to do - I can even do some work and submit it back to you if that's kosher until someone takes it over? Please let me know... *Richard B. Winters*

Bug#777695: RFA: tiff -- TIFF manipulation and conversion documentation
Package: wnpp Severity: normal I request an adopter for the tiff package since I no longer have time to maintain it properly. The package description is: libtiff is a library providing support for the Tag Image File Format (TIFF), a widely used format for storing image data. This package contains documentation. Additional notes: The tiff package has many important reverse dependencies. Upstream is mostly inactive, but there is still some occasional forward movement. The tiff package gets lots of security incidents against it, so whoever maintains it has to be prepared for these. Additionally, it includes a number of older command-line utilities that are buggy. In most cases, there are better alternatives, but those tools are still in wide use. Upstream has a habit of accidentally breaking binary compatibility, so extra scrutiny is required when handling new upstream releases, which are infrequent. The tiff packages are in good shape right now. Debian and virtually all the distributions have successfully completed the transition to tiff 4.x. There is also a tiff3 source package that was transitional for the wheezy release only. It contains no dev or tools packages -- only runtime library. It gets occasional security updates. The tiff packages are relatively low effort to maintain, but they do need to be handled with care. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Package: wnpp Severity: normal I request an adopter for the xerces-c package since I no longer have time to maintain it. The package description is: Xerces-C++ is a validating XML parser written in a portable subset of C++. This package contains the development files for Xerces. It also contains sources to various sample files. The libxerces-c-samples package contains compiled versions of the samples. Additional notes: The xerces-c packages are low effort to maintain. They get very few security updates and have very infrequent upstream releases. They are also not widely used. These are good packages for a new maintainer who wants the challenge of handling library packages or for group maintenance by a group that handles other apache or xml-related tools or by someone who maintains one of its few reverse dependencies and wants to ensure that the xerces-c packages are in good shape. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

The pthreading module provides Lock and Condition synchronization objects compatible with Python native threading module. The implementation, however, is based on POSIX thread library as delivered by the libpthread. Lock and Condition are designed to be a drop-in replacement for their respective threading counterpart. . Take a look at threading.py of Python 2. Notice that Event.wait() wakes 20 times a second and checks if the event has been set. This CPU hogging has been fixed in Python 3, but is not expected to change during Python 2 lifetime. . To avoid this waste of resources, put in your main module:: . import pthreading pthreading monkey_patch() .

Bug#777694: RFA: icu -- Development utilities for International Components for Unicode
Package: wnpp Severity: normal I request an adopter for the icu package as I no longer have time to maintain the package. The package description is: ICU is a C++ and C library that provides robust and full-featured Unicode and locale support. This package contains programs used to manipulate data files found in the ICU sources and is a dependency of libicu-dev. End users would generally not need to install this package. Additional notes: ICU is an important library package with lots of reverse dependencies. Upstream does two binary-incompatible releases each year, so ICU needs frequent library transitions to be coordinated with the release team. Upstream is good about source compatibility so usually these are easy but sometimes they require some effort in coordination with other packages that use ICU. ICU gets lots of security incidents, so you have to be prepared to handle those. Usually someone else does most of the work since ICU is embedded in some high-profile projects. ICU has a complex internal build system with lots of code generators and other unconventional things. This tends to make things like multi-arch, security hardening, and other things that wrap around the build system more complicated than in most packages. Upstream is very responsive to bug reports and packaging considerations. The ICU packages are in good shape right now, but we are a couple of versions out of date now and there is some discussion over problems with its multi-arch compliance. Resolving these issues will require some effort. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#777699: RFA: psutils -- PostScript document handling utilities
Package: wnpp Severity: normal I request an adopter for the psutils package since I no longer have time to maintain it. The package description is: This collection of utilities is for manipulating PostScript documents. Page selection and rearrangement are supported, including arrangement into signatures for booklet printing, and page merging for n-up printing. . The following programs are included in psutils: epsffit, extractres, fixdlsrps, fixfmps, fixmacps, fixpsditps, fixpspps, fixscribeps, fixtpps, fixwfwps, fixwpps, fixwwps, getafm, includeres, psbook, psmerge, psnup, psresize, psselect, pstops, showchar . Some programs included here (psmerge) behave differently if gs is available, but all programs work without it. Additional notes: psutils is dead upstream, but it is a popular package. The debian psutils package includes the actual psutils software plus a small handful of other utilities that have been packaged with it over time. There are a handful of open bug reports against psutils, but since upstream is no longer maintaining the package, we will pretty much have to fix any bugs we want fixed ourselves. There is someone out there who is interested in becoming a new upstream for psutils. I will put whoever adopts psutils in contact with him. The debian packages are in pretty good shape. This is a low-effort package to maintain, but picking it up could be a great opportunity for someone who wants to put a little effort into revitalizing it. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

that you have done most of the job but unfortunately they are broken.
Is the packaging code still available somewhere ?
Yes, it is still available here [1]. Please bear in mind that I haven't
looked at in number of years and will need refreshing. The comments
below might also be no longer relevant, but I suspect not.
Also, could you elaborate on copyright concerns with upstream code raised
by Nicholas Breen?
Relevant excerpts from Nicholas' mail:
* None of the Phidgets code files have copyright information in the headers,
except for a couple that have something other than LGPL notices, such as
examples/phidgetsbclist.c and most files in Java/com/phidgets (All rights
reserved). Presumably it's LGPLed like the rest, but their own copyright
statement should clarify what files the LGPL license applies to -- ideally
in the files themselves, since the All Rights Reserved by itself does not
permit anything.
* include/dns_sd.h: Copyright belongs to Apple and must be noted in the
documentation.
* include/jni/*: SUN PROPRIETARY/CONFIDENTIAL. Use is subject to license
terms. Those license terms are not defined in the package. Whatever they
may be, it's almost certainly not permitted to redistribute them without that
license available.
* Java/com/phidgets/event/KeyChangeEvent.java: Copyright 2006 Dictionarys Inc.
All rights reserved. Needs clarification and possible relicensing. Also
KeyRemovalEvent.java.
* Java/*.h: all machine generated, but from what? Can they be regenerated from
files in the package and tools available in Debian? A brief note in
debian/README.source would more than suffice here.
* zeroconf_lookup.c: claims to be taken from mDNSResponderPosix's nss_mdns
code, which I believe is Apache 2.0-licensed (by Apple), not LGPL.
* utils/cvtutf.?: This code is copyrighted. Under the copyright laws, this
code may not be copied, in whole or part, without prior written consent of
Taligent. That's a red flag! It may need to be replaced with other code,
e.g. http://www.unicode.org/faq/utf_bom.html#gen4
* utils/md5.?: Copyright Aladdin Enterprises. Okay to use but should be noted
in copyright file.
* linux/avahi-{client,common}: Code copies are discouraged. Could it instead
build against the existing libavahi-client-dev and libavahi-common-dev
packages? The different origin of these files should also be noted in
debian/copyright; they could also be stripped entirely, but since they're
LGPLed as well, probably not worth repacking the tarbell. A note in
debian/README.source explaining that they're unused (if moved to using the
libavahi* packages instead) would help.
Last question, are you still interested in maintaining this package, and
would you mind if somebody else take over?
Unfortunately I have no longer have access to any phidget hardware, so I
have no interest in maintaining it. Feel free to reassign the ITP.
Jon

Maximum acceptable timeouts as well as minimum acceptable number of days the server certificate needs to be valid can be specified as command line parameters.

I personally disagree with your statement on medical image registration. I believe both fast and sophisticated registration tools can live together. Your package would fit perfectly in d-science or d-med, if not both. ... but usually we will not compete about packages between both teams. I'd recommend to pick the team you feel most comfortable in. Before actually finding a sponsor, you'd need to prepare the packaging somewhere, in your personal or chosen debian team git repository for instance, and make sure it is of sufficient quality for an upload (using tools like Lintian). Then, you will file an RFS bug, which will point prospective sponsors to the location of your packaging and give them instructions on how to build and test the resulting binary packages. I'd recommend https://wiki.debian.org/DebianPureBlends/SoB which (intentionally!) requires joining a team and using their VCS. ;-) Anyway, I need a sponsor, if this shall become part of Debian.

Bug#777667: RFA: topgit -- a Git patch queue manager
Package: wnpp Severity: normal Hello, [I thought I already sent this RFA, but I cannot find any traces neither in my mailbox nor on https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=wnpp.] I request an adopter for the topgit package. The package description is: TopGit manages a patch queue using Git topic branches, one patch per branch. It allows for patch dependencies and can thus manage non-linear patch series. . TopGit is a minimal layer on top of Git, which does not limit use of Git's functionality (such as the index). It rigorously keeps history until a patch is accepted upstream. It is also fully usable across distributed repositories. I don't actively use topgit anymore since quite some time and the last few updates were done by NMUs.
