I looked at it, seems alright, but I can't really say much because I
haven't tracked the changes in Pd in the past couple years.  Feel free
to upload and make a release.

getting openni-sensor-pointclouds into Debian/testing

2014-02-21 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner

Hey Jochen,

FYI, this bug is preventing openni-sensor-pointclouds from being accepted from
unstable into Debian/testing.

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=734768

Fixing it should just be a matter of moving modules.xml from /etc to /var and
adding it to the postrm script.

2014-01-03 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner

Thanks for the patch!  This would be a great thing to forward upstream, have
you tried that?  I think they would accept it.  I'm also OK with including it
as part of the Debian package regardless.

I will advocate too.  I can also help with the DD process, since I recently
went thru it.  Its a pretty long process that involves quite a bit of work.
My advice is to start the process whenever you are ready, but don't stress out
making it happen fast.  Since you're a DM and I think you've been granted
upload access to all of the packages you maintain, you already have most of
the access you'll use.

There is a lintian error on this package:

Since I don't really maintain CDBS packages and IOhannes is stepping up on the

I'll grant you upload on it, please handle the lintian error.

I set up the openni2 repo in pkg-multimedia git-buildpackage style.  It should
include all of the work in your 2.2.0.33 version of the package.

These are two good overviews of this workflow:
https://wiki.debian.org/PackagingWithGit
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianMultimedia/DevelopPackaging

This covers how to include the upstream git history in the package's git repo:
http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/journal/2013-04/001.html

Here's a way to set up with the full git-buildpackage style with the upstream
git repo included:

$ sudo apt-get install git-buildpackage pristine-tar
$ gbp-clone git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-multimedia/openni2.git
$ cd openni2
$ git remote add upstream https://github.com/OpenNI/OpenNI2
$ git fetch upstream

Now you can build the package using git-buildpackage, and it'll also run all
sorts of extra checks on it, like lintian:

$ git-buildpackage

For including a new release, you can both import the pristine tarball from
github, and tie it to the upstream git history:

$ wget https://github.com/OpenNI/OpenNI2/archive/7bef8f639e4d6.tar.gz
$ cd openni2
$ git tag 2.2.0.33 7bef8f639e4d6
$ git-import-orig --upstream-vcs-tag=2.2.0.33 ../7bef8f639e4d6.tar.gz

I didn't add your 'develop' branch, but you can add that as well to this mix
as well.

In terms of getting it uploaded to Debian, you need to update the
debian/copyright with all copyright info for all files included in the
git/tarball.  checkout the openni package for a good example.

There is also a syntax error in your debian/changelog, use the program 'dch'
to edit it, and it'll automatically handle the syntax for you.

I pushed your package to my OpenNI PPA for anyone to try, let's hope it builds:
https://launchpad.net/~eighthave/+archive/openni/+packages

Ok, alioth is finally back up, so I'm reviewing this.

* I filed an ITP bug report and uploaded a couple small changes to the package

* the descriptions in debian/control still mention avin2.  Could you add
something about what makes this 'pointclouds' fork different than the official
one, and avin2?

* does openni-sensor-pointclouds conflict with the potentially upcoming
openni-sensor-primesense and openni-sensor-avin2?  I.e. do they share paths to
the same files?  If so, that will need to be marked in the package once those
others are added.

* as for uploading openni-sensor-primesense, isn't that just a matter of
removing the patches that are specific to avin2 and pointclouds?  That one
seemed ready to go for me, except for the issue of new features being added by
patches in debian/patches.

Now that alioth is back up and running, I set it up as 'openni2'
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-multimedia/openni2.git

Read-only is here:
https://alioth.debian.org/anonscm/git/pkg-multimedia/openni2.git

Read/write is here:
git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-multimedia/openni2.git

Things have changed a bit with alioth, its a new server so it might have new
SSH keys for you.  I see the RSA key with the host key fingerprint of:
d7:0b:26:5c:7a:5d:56:40:a9:e0:5d:f4:e1:70:88:bf

I highly recommend using the git-buildpackage layout, and I can help with the
process of converting the current repo to a git-buildpackage style repo.

Hauke, were you able to request an account on alioth yet? I forget where that
stands.

Including a description of the issue in the patch would be quite helpful.  It
looks like the upstream version has a SONAME since it ends in .so.2.  To add a
desciption just add this at the top of the patch file:

Description: renaming file to match our SONAME
 Upstream doesn't set SONAM blah blah blah...

Re: getting openni2 into Debian

2013-11-20 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner

The first thing that needs doing is the debian/copyright file.  All of the
various licenses of the code that are included in the openni source release
need to be marked in there, or the Debian ftp-masters will reject the package.
 So things like in the ThirdParty/ folder.  Check out the debian/copyright in
'openni' for an example.

Also, your debian/changelog seems to have a syntax issue:

parsechangelog/debian: warning: openni2/debian/changelog(l6): badly formatted
trailer line
LINE:  -- Hauke Wintjen   Fri, 29 Mar 2013
23:14:11 +010openni2 (2.1.0.4-1ubuntu1~1.gbp2a4158) UNRELEASED; urgency=low

The best way to edit debian/changelog is to use the 'dch' utility.

Also, what tool are you building it with?  I couldn't get it to build with
either dpkg-buildpackage or git-buildpackage.

Why do you change the SONAME from upstream?  That's a pretty unusual thing to 
do.

Having a dash in the upstream version number will make it tricky since the
package version comes after a dash.  Also, I think its good to have as simple
tag names as possible.  Since PrimeSense has long ones, this repo could use
very short ones like  '5.1.0.41'  Or even '5.1.0.41.1' if you want to throw in
a pointcloud-specific version.

Looks good.  Next step is tagging a release there, so there is an upstream

So it seems that you gathered a collection of patches from
https://github.com/avin2/SensorKinect, https://kforge.ros.org/openni/drivers,
and https://github.com/rbrusu/Sensor.  This is a great thing to do, gathering
all the useful patches in one place.  I just think it should be all in a
single git repo that anyone can use, i.e. on Fedora, Gentoo, whatever.

So how about you make a repo that has all of the general patches in it, then
we package that as 'openni-sensor-YOURNAMEHERE'.  Then the Debian-specific
patches, like for building against the system libjpeg, etc. will be in the
packaging.

Then 'openni-sensor-primesense' will be the primesense code with only the
Debian-specific patches applied, and maybe the ones adding USB ids if that
makes sense.

Patches in a Debian package are not meant for adding new functionality.  They
are meant to get the code building/working/installing on Debian, and for
fixing security bugs.  So the package that includes those patches should be
named after the source of those patches.  Even better, that package should be
based off of that source's release.  Those patches are not in the referenced
git repo (https://github.com/PrimeSense/Sensor) and there is no description in
each patch to say where its from.  In the spirit of free software, people
should be able to find all of the original sources of a package.

Is there a source repo somewhere that includes those patches?  Then lets use
that and name the package after that.

Are any of them from the avin2 repo?

I think adding a USB ID to support other devices is an OK thing to do in a 
patch.

My question is more the opposite: when do people use the plain version without
any of the avin2 patches?  I think we should call the current package
'openni-sensor-avin2-sensorkinect', then leave it open for anyone to make the
'openni-sensor-primesense' package that is the plain version direct from
PrimeSense without the avin2 patches.

OK, I'll give it one more look and upload it when I have some time.  How about 
openni-sensor-avin2-sensorkinect?  Is that still worth having as a separate

At long last, we finally did it!  openni is officially part of Debian (and soon 
it'll be automatically included in Ubuntu).

The openni2 package should be pretty straightforward then if openni2 is not too 
different than openni.  I don't currently have time to contribute to the 
packaging of openni2 but I can upload it to the Debian NEW Queue once its ready.

Also, is openni-sensor-primesense ready for upload? primesense-nite-nonfree is 
still waiting in the NEW queue, but hopefully it'll be accepted soon since it 
was just waiting on openni to be accepted.

Hey Ziv,

Just had a thought: if PrimeSense wants to see openni2 in Debian and Ubuntu 
sooner rather than later, it would be possible to do this as a consulting job.  
I am available for such work, and I imagine others are as well.  I'd defer to 
Jochen on it since he's done the most work recently.

This is perfect, no problems.  I just added the .docx to the openni packaging
for openni 1.x, then for openni2, we can get it from the next release.

Excellent!  The Debian gatekeepers will be happy.  Two quick questions:

- is the license on this file the same as the PDF and the rest of the source 
code in the OpenNI package?

- can this docx file be checked into the OpenNI git alongside the PDF?

OpenNI_UserGuide.pdf in original Microsoft Word format?

2013-09-13 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner

Hey,

I have a small request: would it be possible to include the original Microsoft
Word document that OpenNI/Documentation/OpenNI_UserGuide.pdf is generated
from?  It would be useful for people used to that format rather than PDFs, and
also the original format is a better source for converting to other formats

Lastly, the last blocker issue preventing openni from being officially
accepted into Debian and Ubuntu is the missing source file to
OpenNI_UserGuide.pdf.

The authors of the original are listed as Einat Kinamon and Debbie Gold Hadar.

Thanks in advance!

Is the source required to be there in order for it to be included?  A PDF is a
binary format generated from other files, but it is also a file format that
can be read and edited by many free programs.

getting openni2 into Debian

2013-09-13 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner

Hey Hauke,

I'm emailing you as part of the team working on the OpenNI packages for
Debian.  I'm glad to see you're work on openni2!
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=707056

In case you haven't seen it, the most up-to-date version of the 'openni'
package is here:
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-multimedia/openni.git;a=summary

All of the other OpenNI-related packaged are part of the Debian pkg-multimedia
project, and the git repos are there:
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?a=project_list&pf=pkg-multimedia&s=openni&btnS=Search

It would be great if you could also work out of a git repo hosted by the
pkg-multimedia team.  I can set up the repo, you just need to create an
account on Alioth, the Debian git host:
https://alioth.debian.org/account/register.php

then request to join the pkg-multimedia project here:
http://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-multimedia

We can then work out the final details and upload openni2 to Debian!

I briefly talked with them in the past, and outlined the SONAME stuff that
they needed to include.  I guess it never happened.  It'd save the packagers a
lot of work if this stuff can be included upstream, so its worth revisiting in
openni2

I've run out of time in this sprint, but don't fret.  We'll wait and see if
this goes thru, and take it from there.

It sounds very promising, but I think its too soon to mandate it.  I think
people should all try it and then report back on experience with it.  If no
one hits major hurdles, then mandate it.

I'm going to try my first package in this style:

http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-multimedia/openni-sensor-primesense.git

I updated the 'pristine-tar' and 'upstream' branches on openni:
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-multimedia/openni.git

I left primesense-nite-nonfree as is because as far as I know it doesn't
have an 'upstream' branch since it downloads the binary tarball.

Should be ready for people to hack on, let me know if I missed something.

new DD on the team

2012-06-25 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner

Hey all,

I'm now officially a DD with upload privileges!  I just tried them out,
uploading two simple packages that I had sitting around ready to go. 
Thanks all for your help getting me there.

I have a little bit of time to do some uploads if there is anything
urgent that needs to make it into Wheezy before the freeze.

There is indeed at least one application that does use libavfilter, and that is 
the ffmpeg command line tool.  I think that's how most people use the functions 
in libavfilter.

There are going to be differences between ffmpeg and there are going to solid 
reasons to use one or the other.  So it seems futile to me to ask the devs to 
make them the same thing when the devs just split up over that very issue.

I should add, since this came up in the discussion related to 
debian-multimedia.org, that this discussion about ffmpeg and libav should not 
be taken to mean that I am arguing against the proposals related to 
debian-multimedia.org.  I have also been burned by debian-multimedia.org 
package conflicts, and at the same time I think that the debian-multimedia.org 
packages are a valuable resource.  I think it is a good idea to make 
debian-multimedia.org more distinct from Debian itself, and also, it is a good 
idea to try to get as much of the debian-multimedia.org packages into Debian as 
possible.  So I support the DPL's statement on that specific topic.

We do not disagree at all on this point.  I'm not saying that we should just 
upload ffmpeg as is, obviously it would be stupid to upload ffmpeg if it broke 
things. But we should welcome anyone who wants to do the work to make it 
possible to install libav and ffmpeg at the same time, or any other reasonable 
solution.  

And since this is a very political issue, we do need to speak carefully and 
clearly.  That's why I object to the statement "Uploading ffmpeg would be a bad 
idea".  It is very broad, and wrong from some legitimate Debian-specific points 
of view.

I'm specifically interested in the ffmpeg command line util, I don't really 
need all the libraries.  That wouldn't be hard to package.  As for libraries, 
how about putting the ffmpeg versions into /usr/include/ffmpeg and 
/usr/lib/ffmpeg?  Then if someone wants to build against them, they can add 
-I/usr/include/ffmpeg and -L/usr/lib/ffmpeg.  For most projects that use the 
libav* libraries, there probably wouldn't be any difference between using the 
ffmpeg or libav versions, so it would be silly to make all packages for both.

And of course, I'm not telling anyone that they should do the work here.  I am 
saying we should welcome anyone who wants to do it.  Oops, I guess I already 
said that ;)

From what I can tell, they improved the audio plugin API in ffmpeg 0.9 quite a 
bit. When I was programming my plugin, I looked at both libav and ffmpeg.  It 
wasn't until I looked at ffmpeg 0.9 that it seemed feasible.  I attached my

Since this whole ffmpeg-libav thing is a sensitive issue, I think we need to 
treat lightly, and be extra clear. I strongly disagree that uploading ffmpeg 
into Debian is a bad idea.   It may be difficult to handle both ffmpeg and 
libav, but that is a separate question.  ffmpeg provides many things that libav 
does not.  For example, I have written an audio redaction plugin for ffmpeg.  
Such a plugin is not possible in libav.

When I read statements like "Uploading ffmpeg would be a bad idea", it seems to 
me that the Debian-multimedia team has taken sides on the ffmpeg-libav fork 
dispute.  That is not a position that a Debian team should take. Both ffmpeg 
and libav remain valuable free software that people want to use.  And if 
someone is willing to do the work, Debian and Debian Multimedia should welcome 
both ffmpeg and libav.

Re: openni debian package updates?

2012-01-20 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner

Ok, I've just had to dive deep into this stuff again, but sadly this time on 
Mac OS X.  The good news is that almost all of this experience will be easy to 
apply to the Debian packages.  Indeed, I was packaging for Fink which uses a 
lot of Debian tools and even .deb packages.  Here are the sources:

http://fink.cvs.sourceforge.net/fink/dists/10.4/stable/main/finkinfo/libs/openni.info?view=markup
http://fink.cvs.sourceforge.net/fink/dists/10.4/stable/main/finkinfo/libs/openni-sensor-primesense.info?view=markup
http://fink.cvs.sourceforge.net/fink/dists/10.4/stable/main/finkinfo/libs/openni-sensor-avin2-sensorkinect.info?view=markup
http://fink.cvs.sourceforge.net/fink/dists/10.4/stable/main/finkinfo/libs/primesense-nite.info?view=markup

One thing I did to is change the 'sensor' package names, I propose using these 
names:

openni-sensor-primesense.info (for OpenNI PrimeSense Sensor driver)
openni-sensor-avin2-sensorkinect (for avin2's SensorKinect fork)

If anyone can take on applying this stuff to the Debian packaging, I'll help 
out where I can.  If not, I'll try to get to it when I can.

Bug#649891: how does it work in 64-bit?

2012-01-12 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner

Thanks for the bug report and patch, I'm also upstream on this, so I can get it 
in there.  One question: I noticed that epsilon is 1e-9 as a float.  We're in 
the process of porting all Pd libraries to support a 64-bit t_float and 
t_sample.  The 'vbap' library is not there yet, but we hope to get it there.  
Does the value of epsilon need to be different when t_float is 64-bit double 
precision?  Is it possible to make eplison work for both t_float/t_sample as 
single and double precision?

How about we keep this fight out of Debian?  It seems clear that the place for 
libav bug reports would be the libav bug tracker.  It also seems clear libav is 
an ffmpeg fork, and ffmpeg is also alive as a project.  Its certainly not the 
first time such a thing has happened in the world of free software.

I think there should also be room for someone to package ffmpeg for Debian if 
they wanted to since it provides different things than libav.  I see no reason 
for Debian policy to dictate that ffmpeg not be allowed in Debian, please 
illuminate me if you believe otherwise.  I do fear that useful software (ffmpeg 
in this case) will be prevented from inclusion in Debian.

Re: upload request: pd-mapping

2011-12-31 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner

I should add, this was all bundled up for uploading, and I even dput'ed it, but 
it was rejected since DM-Upload-Allowed isn't set already.  I had tagged the 
release in git, but have deleted the tag for whomever might upload it.  Or I 
can tag it once its uploaded.

upload request: pd-mapping

2011-12-30 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner

I am trying to get pd-hid into Debian/testing and also Ubuntu by getting
it in before the Ubuntu Debian Import deadline.  This update of
pd-mapping (0.2-2) is the last step, but I don't yet had upload
priviledges for it.  Its all ready for upload, hopefully someone can

openni debian package updates?

2011-12-09 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner

I was just looking into the OpenNI/PrimeSense updates.  There are new source 
releases, and they've changed the URL and the binary layout of the NITE 
middleware.  Has anyone got this stuff working or made any recent updates on 
this?  It would be great if we could get the packages working again with the 
newest releases.

It says that moving pd-hid to testing prevents pd-hid from  
installing on testing in kfreebsd-amd64 [and maybe more  
architectures, only the first found is listed].


Since it IS installed on sid, is there something missing from  
testing, but present in sid, that pd-hid needs before it can be  
installed? something that is not listed as a dependency, but should  
be?

pd-hid was written in 2004-2005 and uses the Linux input.h.  It's had  
bug fixes since then, but no major changes.  I can't imagine what pd- 
hid would need that wouldn't be in oldstable, or sarge even.  Any

Yeah, that is indeed the case. Before filing a bug report, I'd like
to
clear up the meanings of the different paths.

/usr/lib/pd/extra
Am I right in assuming that this path is supposed to be searched by
all flavors of Pd (all packages that provide the virtual package
pd)?
This also the path where usually external libraries are installed  
to

because from there they can be loaded from any flavor of pd?

/usr/lib/puredata/extra
is only searched by puredata / pd from the puredata package?
This is where libraries are installed that only are suitable for
the pd provided by the puredata package?

/usr/lib/pd-extended/extra
is only searched by pdextended / pd from the pd-extended package?
Libs that are only useful with pdextended go there?

If that is the case, then there is definitely a bug in the  
puredata-

core
package as it is ignoring /usr/lib/pd/extra.


it might as well be a bug in puredata upstream (that's why i want to
discuss it; probably a more appropriate place for discussion is the
pd-dev mailinglist which i include in the recipients)

imho, the issue boils down to the question "what are  
stdpaths?" (and i

assume that "stdlibs" are std because they live in "stdpaths").

for the sake of simplicity, i will only talk about the "linux"  
version

of Pd (and with Pd i mean Pd-vanilla)

before Pd-0.43 (vanilla!), there was only a single "stdpath", which
was
the path were the Pd binaries lived in. this usually was
/usr/local/lib/pd/ or /usr/lib/pd/

since 0.43, a few more paths have been added, namely:
/usr/local/lib/pd-externals and ~/pd-externals
on Debian and derivatives, yet another path is added: since Pd is
installed into /usr/lib/puredata/ (in order to allow pd-extended  
live
side by side with puredata), the path "/usr/lib/pd" is also added  
as a

"common system-managed search path".

now all these paths are handled separately from the user defined
search-paths; e.g. they do not show up in the path dialog, and they
can
be disabled with the "-nostdpaths" flag.

otoh, [declare] has not adapted to these changes.
if you add "-stdpath extra/foo", it will only search in
/usr/local/lib/pd/extra/foo (given that pd is installed in
/usr/local/lib/pd), but it will not search in
/usr/local/lib/pd-externals/extra/foo nor in ~/pd-externals/extra/ 
foo.

(the same applies for the additional Debian-specific search path
/usr/lib/pd/extra/foo).
hence i do think that the problem is general problem with Pd-vanilla
(and not specific to Debian; it only shows here)


My guess is that [declare] should be adapted to consider as stdpath
the same stuff that -nostdpaths does.


I agree. I think that the various standard paths shouldn't be treated
differently. As a patch creator I don't care whether I installed the  
foo

library in ~/pd-externals or /usr/local/lib/pd/extra, in either case I
want to load a library the same way.

I believe it makes sense to distinguish only two different scopes  
here:


* system environment
   _all_ standard paths belong to it and the '-stdpath' and '-stdlib'
   flags of [declare] should expand all those paths, respectively try
   to load libraries from those paths.

* patch / local environment
   paths relative to the patch's location. The '-lib' and '-path'
   flags of [declare] cover those.

I can't come up with another meaningful scope. But if there is any,
probably new flags for [declare] would be necessary.


This also means, that currently all Pd libraries in unstable that
install to /usr/lib/pd/extra (most of them do) are currently
broken, as
there is no proper way to actually load them in pd (you still can
specify the absolute path to the library, which renders your patch
unportable to other OS').


you could also simply start Pd with "-lib foo" and it will just  
work.

so i wouldn't consider "all broken".
obviously, we lack the possibility to express a library dependency
within the patch, which is a shame (but which is also due to the
current
broken implementation of [declare] in general).

I find that Launchpad is a good place to test new packages.  I think  
you have a launchpad account already, so it should be easy.  I always  
upload my packages to my launchpad before submitting them for upload

How did you test? The '-lib' flag searches relative to your patch,
whereas '-stdlib' searches relative to pd. You only can correctly  
test

it by effectively installing the package and run pd (/usr/bin/pd).


my test is to open the attached abstraction with
$ puredata -noprefs pdstring-test.pd
which gives me:

any2string
error: ... couldn't create


puredata (the 0.43.0-4) finds neither the library nor the  
abstraction of

the name "any2string".

the former can be a bug in your documentation (i have to admit that  
i'm

not so familiar with [declare]), as it would look for a library
"extra/pdstring" where the pdstring.pd_linux file really is
extra/pdstring/pdstring.pd_linux, so it should probably read "-stdlib
extra/pdstring/pdstring".


'-stdlib extra/pdstring/pdstring' is supposed to work as well but  
should

not be necessary at all. Pd normally checks also folders with the lib
name for libs. When specifying mylib, both extra/mylib.pd_linux and
extra/mylib/mylib.pd_linux are searched.


However, it turned out, that the advice was not complete, since the
library also contains abstractions, which are not found with only
'-stdlib extra/pdstring'. The full and correct declaration is:

[declare -stdlib extra/pdstring -stdpath extra/pdstring]

Yeah, that's a lot for loading only a library, but unfortunately  
that is

how it currently works in Pd.


after closer inspection it seems like this _might_ be a bug in the
"puredata" package, which seems only to consider "/usr/lib/ 
puredata/" as

a stdpath, and it won't search "extra/pdstring" in "/usr/lib/pd".

i'm not entirely sure though (given the nastiness of [declare])
if you think that it is a bug in "puredata-core", please file a  
bugreport.

Re: please upload pd-osc

2011-08-06 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner


One important upstream detail is that the lib is called 'osc', the  
folder in SVN is called 'osc', the package is called 'pd-osc',  
therefore the OSC-meta.pd needs to be osc-meta.pd to match the library  
and package name.  That change is already in the upstream SVN.


Also, it'd be good to get a release signed-off by Martin Peach, the  
upstream author, and to make the release tarball that you posted also  
match the other names, i.e. osc-0.1.tar.gz rather than OSC-0.1.tar.gz.

dear fellow pkgers,

after debconf i finally found the time to package one of my  
longstanding

ITPs (before it finally expires!): pd-osc

pd-osc is a puredata library adding Open Sound Control (OSC)
capabilities (at the application layer (OSI-7)) to Pd.
It "allows one to construct and parse OSC messages within Pd.  It
includes support for ordinary OSC-messages, typetags, timetags and
bundles. These objects are transport-agnostic, so you can use them to
transmit OSC over UDP, TCP/IP, serial port, or in fact whatever you
want.  However, you will have to install additional libraries that  
will

handle the transport layer (like pd-iemnet or pd-comport)." [1]

the package can be found at:
git+ssh://git.debian.org/pkg-multimedia/pd-osc
http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-multimedia/pd-osc.git

it appears to be lintian clean (there is a single Pedantic warning,
about a missing upstream changelog).
it builds cleanly in my pbuilder environment.

this package uses CDBS (ping jonas!)

i would be glad if somebody could review the package and throw some
comments at me.
if there is somebody willing to upload the package, that would be even
nicer :-)


@jonas: i shamelessly copied a README.source written by you, which i
found in the "scenic" package. it has no built-in copyright notice,  
so i

assumed it is GPL-3+; could you please confirm that?

I believe this package needs to be fixed for puredata >= 0.43


As far as I can tell it has already.  For me, it builds on
Debian/testing using puredata-dev and no puredata, and squeeze  
using

puredata 0.42.6.


Indeed, it seems to work.

I have a licensing question though. The package is distributed as
GPLv3+. However, Supercollider (where some code was borrowed) is
GPLv2+. I think debian/copyright should document that fact.  
Code from

2004 cannot possibly be under GPLv3+ unless relicensed.


The GPLv2+ license has that built into it.  In the context of this
project,
the code from SuperCollider is so intermingled, there is no easily
recognizable chunk that could be labeled GPLv2+.  Since the  
project is
GPLv3+, I think it would be misleading to try to say that a file  
is
available under GPLv2+.  If people want the GPLv2+ file, they  
should go

to
the original SuperCollider source.

Here's the text from the GPL:

"Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the  
Program
specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General  
Public

License
"or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of  
following

later

debian/copyright is documenting, not relicensing, even if it is
permissible.


From what I've seen, debian/copyright is not finer grained than  
files.
 The GPLv2+ code is mixed into two different files that are mostly  
GPLv3+.

 So if looking on a per-file basis, all of the files are GPLv3+.

I have a licensing question though. The package is distributed as
GPLv3+. However, Supercollider (where some code was borrowed) is
GPLv2+. I think debian/copyright should document that fact. Code  
from

2004 cannot possibly be under GPLv3+ unless relicensed.


The GPLv2+ license has that built into it.  In the context of this  
project,

the code from SuperCollider is so intermingled, there is no easily
recognizable chunk that could be labeled GPLv2+.  Since the  
project is

GPLv3+, I think it would be misleading to try to say that a file is
available under GPLv2+.  If people want the GPLv2+ file, they  
should go to

the original SuperCollider source.

Here's the text from the GPL:

"Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the  
Program
specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General  
Public License
"or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of

I'm a DD.

BTW, update to the pkgs status:

I tried yesterday the three repos, they worked.
I just pushed a couple of patches to fix small (but necessary) things.

I just realized that we need to fix the .ini file for Kinect, I had to
change "InputFormat=1" which was commented, to make it work.

Also, udev rules, does anybody know if we need OWNER="root" or it  
can be

"xxx" as set by upstream?

Next steps:

- Enable Mono in openni so that it can be re-enabled in NITE.
 - the Makefile for NITE & OpenNI relies on the presence of the mono
   exec to compile mono, which means that in a chroot env it compiles
   without problems, but when build outside in an env which has mono
   installed it will fail.

   The reason of the failure is that the upstream install.sh script do
   not detach the build from the (post) installation process.
   As per my mono understanding (noob) we need to compile GAC in
   postinst, while create the DLL at build time. Until we split this
   behaviour (should be easy) we cannot build mono package and both
   openni and NITE are inherently broken.


It would be nice to have the Mono stuff working, but I don't think it  
should be a blocker on getting the package uploaded.  So far, most of  
the useful stuff I've seen done with openni has not involved Mono/.NET/ 
C#.



- Re-enable quilt, so that we can patch the Samples to be able to find
 their XML in a different location than "../../../../Data", and
 package it as openni-samples, the same for nite and kinect IIRC.

- Fix all the lintian complaints and the .ini :)


I fixed the man page complaints, tho the man pages I just made could  
definitely improved a lot.


.hc


- Fix the SONAME and .so versioning issue, it depends on the email I
 still have to send to upstream about their build system :)
 So far this is not a real problem, until we'll have more than one
 version we need to be able to link at the same time.

After that we might be able to consider an upload to unstable, IMHO.

cheers,
C.

That works for me.


Here it is: https://github.com/ros-pkg-git/Sensor/tree/master.  
It's not
based on the avin2 branch (as they are not really based to the  
official
OpenNI once), let me know if you that's ok for you. By the way,  
why is

the Debian git not connected to the github one? I mean this one:
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-multimedia/primesense-kinect-sensor.git


These packages are packaged using standard Debian git-buildpackage
style.  That means that the upstream code is imported from release
tarballs, and the git master branch is all about the debian  
packaging.

That's why this repo is not a fork of the upstream repo.


According to the git-buildpackage documentation [1] the upstream- 
branch

can either be imported or a branch you can pull from. So generating
tarballs from a git and then importing them into git again seems to be
superfluous and makes the upstream branch hard to track. But if it  
works

for you, I'm fine with it.

So if we decide to make primesense-kinect-sensor based off of your  
git

fork, then a release tarball would need to be imported using
git-import-orig. I'm thinking perhaps its a better idea if you make a
separate package of your fork.  I used the avin2 fork rather than the
offical repo for this package because it seems that the official  
sources

don't fully work.  It should be really easy to create a ros package
since the code is so close.  It could be something like
primesense-kinect-sensor-ros or whatever.


This has nothing to do with ROS (apart from that it's living in their
repository. I'm one of the authors of PCL [2] where we use the  
features

of my version. As there is a ITP [3] for it, it would be nice if the
package would include it, so the OpenNI part of PCL would work as  
well,

once it's packages.
Regarding the base for the package I'm fine with the avin2 fork, as  
long

as we can put the Bayer patches from my branch inside debian/patches,
but for me it would almost make more sense to base it of the OpenNI
branch (as this is the official version) and put the avin2 patches in
debian/patches as well.

gbp.intro.html#GBP.REPOSITORY

[2] http://pointclouds.org
[3] http://bugs.debian.org/624178


Sounds to me like you are much deeper in this code than I am, so I  
would defer to you on that topic :)  I'm mostly am thinking of the  
long term policy for this package, and what makes sense for the code  
that's out there.  So I don't have strong opinions on how it shaped  
for the most part.  My guess is that the package should try to stick  
to the primesense code as much as possible, as long as they are  
accepting patches so that their codebase is usable for Debian.  So  
yes, all changes as patches in debian/patches makes sense to me.


I've mostly achieved my goal, which was making it really easy to use  
skeleton tracking with other media software, but I'm happy to stay  
involved as much as I am useful.  I'm about to have a baby, so I'll  
probably be not around for a while, so don't worry about waiting on me  
to get stuff done.



Speaking of it, did you see the Fedora patches

That's the price of the overhead of team work. As a team, we want to  
use
the same workflow on all packages. Since not all upstreams maintain  
the

sources in git, we need to come down to the lowest common denominator,
which boils down to importing tarballs.



The other side of it is that the upstream git repos are a mess.  The  
PrimeSense repo is not used for development, and has a quite unusual  
structure.  It looks like to me they are just importing releases and  
not doing any development out of that git, plus they are using the two  
branches as separate repos, one called 'master' which is the stable  
releases, and the other called 'unstable'.  As code is pushed to the  
stable releases, it is not merged from the 'unstable' branch into  
master.


Then it looks like the avin2 fork is a new reconstruction of the git  
repo to be more git-like, but then that doesn't follow the original  
git.  But I think if I was avin2, I'd do the same.

handling udev for primesense-kinect-sensor

2011-06-18 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner

I was just looking at the udev stuff in primesense-kinect-sensor.  It
seems to me that we should probably ignore their 55-primesense-usb.rules
file and do it the proper Debian way.  Nobuhiro, I see you are a
maintainer on bluez, which installs udev rules.  Do you think you could
set up the proper Debian style udev handling in
primesense-kinect-sensor?  I've never packaged udev stuff before.  But
basically, there .rules file is simple, uses deprecated contructs, and
has the user set as 'xxx', and the perms set as 666.  So there isn't
much there to build on, it seems it should just be replaced.

I guess the proper way to do this is to have a standard group that is
used to give permissions to read/write to the sensor device, then use
that.

You can find the upstream file in the source here:
Platform/Linux-x86/Install/55-primesense-usb.rules

0.43 is

wrong.


puredata << 0.43 provides everything, headers, app, gui, doc,  
etc.  With
0.43, the headers are in puredata-dev and puredata is a meta  
package

that installs everything.  I wanted to avoid having the package
Build-Depend on the whole suite of packages, that's why I added the
0.43.  Plus in the future, puredata might no longer also install
puredata-dev.


Also, doesn't 0.43 bring in the required headers? I think the
add_required_headers patch can be removed.


Yes, the puredata-dev 0.43 package does provide those headers,  
but I
wanted to leave in the patch for now to aid backporting and let  
the dust
settle on the big changes that happened with the puredata package  
being

split into puredata-gui, puredata-dev, puredata-core, etc.


The package won't work unmodified anyways, since it Depends on
puredata-core, which doesn't exist until 0.43. So strictly speaking
the aid for backporting is incomplete (also, it installs into a
different dir, so that would need to be changed too).

I suggest just dropping the << 0.43 option, since it misleads into
thinking it could actually work unchanged with 0.42.


Please update the changelog. I have reviewed this and will upload
tomorrow afternoon (GMT-4, so probably past midnight in europe).



Ok, makes sense, I removed the << 0.43 and pushed.


Offering puredata as an option is wrong too (it still allows 0.42)



Yes, good point.  I also now realized that a backport would also mean  
changing the installed folder, since the puredata 0.43 package suite  
installs into /usr/lib/puredata now, while puredata 0.42 installed  
into /usr/lib/pd

What are the changes in puredata? Is there a bug filed?



I'm speaking on behalf of the work of IOhannes here, so it might not  
be entirely correct.  IOhannes did the work to split puredata into  
many packages, including puredata-dev.  For a transition plan, the new  
puredata was supposed to depend on puredata-dev, so that the old Build- 
Depends would work.  That didn't happen, so now all of the existing  
packages don't build, since the headers are no longer installed when  
you install puredata.


The bugs were then files against the packages that no longer build.   
I've fixed all of my packages to work with "Build-Depends: puredata- 
dev | puredata (<< 0.43)"

Sorry, I lost track of this. I will try to get to this (and

I clearly didn't do this when promised, and this week I  
couldn't

someone
else can look into these packages, please upload them, since  
I'm not

likely to get any debian time anytime soon.

I will, if nobody else gets to these packages, still review  
them as

time permits.


It seems that this package never got uploaded.   It needs its  
git-dch
done and the changelog finalized and then uploaded.  I can  
finalize the
changelog if that makes it easier.  It seems some people want  
to do it

themselves when uploading.


I believe this package needs to be fixed for puredata >= 0.43


As far as I can tell it has already.  For me, it builds on
Debian/testing using puredata-dev and no puredata, and squeeze  
using

puredata 0.42.6.


Indeed, it seems to work.

I have a licensing question though. The package is distributed as
GPLv3+. However, Supercollider (where some code was borrowed) is
GPLv2+. I think debian/copyright should document that fact. Code  
from

2004 cannot possibly be under GPLv3+ unless relicensed.


The GPLv2+ license has that built into it.  In the context of this  
project,

the code from SuperCollider is so intermingled, there is no easily
recognizable chunk that could be labeled GPLv2+.  Since the project  
is

GPLv3+, I think it would be misleading to try to say that a file is
available under GPLv2+.  If people want the GPLv2+ file, they  
should go to

the original SuperCollider source.

Here's the text from the GPL:

"Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the  
Program
specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General Public  
License
"or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of  
following the
terms and conditions either of that numbered version or of any  
later version

published by the Free Software Foundation. "



Indeed, I'm not questioning that. My point is that the objective of
debian/copyright is documenting, not relicensing, even if it is
permissible.


From what I've seen, debian/copyright is not finer grained than  
files.  The GPLv2+ code is mixed into two different files that are  
mostly GPLv3+.  So if looking on a per-file basis, all of the files  
are GPLv3+.

Not uploaded: pd-maxlib (pd-libdir moved from Depends to Suggests and
not documented reason on changelog),


Thanks for catching that, I meant to revert that change since pd-

standard pd ways (i.e. pd -lib maxlib, etc).



pd-pdogg (has pristine-tar data
in the master branch, an accidental merge?). Uploaded the rest.


Ok, I pushed a "revert merge" commit.


Next time, please do not manually tag the releases (pd-ekext), most
likely the person uploading forgot to push the git tags. First ask why
the tag is not there.



Yes, good point, I should have asked.  I think I pushed the tags on a

puredata << 0.43 provides everything, headers, app, gui, doc, etc.  With
0.43, the headers are in puredata-dev and puredata is a meta package
that installs everything.  I wanted to avoid having the package
Build-Depend on the whole suite of packages, that's why I added the
0.43.  Plus in the future, puredata might no longer also install
puredata-dev.

Yes, the puredata-dev 0.43 package does provide those headers, but I
wanted to leave in the patch for now to aid backporting and let the dust
settle on the big changes that happened with the puredata package being
split into puredata-gui, puredata-dev, puredata-core, etc.

It seems that this package never got uploaded.   It needs its git-dch
done and the changelog finalized and then uploaded.  I can finalize the
changelog if that makes it easier.  It seems some people want to do it
themselves when uploading.

Bug#629803: pd-windowing: FTBFS: bartlett~.c:22:18: fatal error: m_pd.h: No such file or directory (missing B-D on puredata-dev)

I am the packager and lead maintainer on this package.  I have fixed
this bug and pushed the fixes to the git.debian.org repo listed in the
Vcs-* lines.  The package is ready for upload, but I am a DM without
upload permissions on this package.

I have been looking for a sponsor on pkg-multimedia for a few weeks now,
so I'd appreciate it if anyone could upload this package, either NMU or
from pkg-multimedia.
