No much familiar, no. Dan would know better than me. What sort of overhaul is needed? There are quite a few different copyrights asserted, making it fairly bulky, but I don't spot any wrongness. For starters, a whole lot of paths are wrong (they are missing the common/ subdir prefix). Hmm, maybe serious overhaul is an overstatement, but getting the right paths is a must, and made me doubt the overall quality of the file, perhaps indicative of neglect. Ah thankyou. Yes that is neglect but fairly recent neglect, we reorganised the folder structure before 3.4 but it seems we forgot the paths in the copyright folder. Great.

I have worked a bit on it, but it still has a long way to go. I will try to work on it during this week, I think I can find one hour or two. Dan, as you are part of upstream, could you comment on the patches included in the packaging? I can see they are in upstream svn ubuntu packaging module, with yourself as last commiter on most of them. They are older than the latest sc release, though. Hi - sorry for slow reply, I missed this thread. Most of the patches are by other people but I will try to comment: 06_deb_scvim.diff - build machine != target machine so don't error out if no ruby executable This seems to also disable building scvim help? Yes, but that's OK - it gets done on first run rather than on build. Oh OK. 08_deb_scvim_checkactive.diff - the 'scvim' script is a wrapper which launches vim with the sc3 plugin. debian vim-addons policy requires the plugin not to be auto-enabled when installing, so we must modify the scvim script to detect if the addon is not enabled, and to help the user enable it if they want to. (Needs to be a patch since vim-addon-manager not necessarily used on all linuxes) The code seems to be appropriately protected. I think it can be safely incorporated upstream. Good point. I've done that now in the svn. BTW, Dan, would you like to help maintain sc in debian? You could join our team, it is always good to have someone involved in upstream development. Yes I would like to - thanks! Do I need an account somewhere? (On git.debian.org I don't see much instruction...) You need to get an account on alioth.debian.org.

2010/10/6 Felipe Sateler fsate...@debian.org: Hi all, (Dan CCed because I'm not sure if you are subscribed to the list) I managed to take a few minutes to take a look at the package and it is not in a very good shape (it was still using simple-patchsys!). I have worked a bit on it, but it still has a long way to go. I will try to work on it during this week, I think I can find one hour or two. Dan, as you are part of upstream, could you comment on the patches included in the packaging? I can see they are in upstream svn ubuntu packaging module, with yourself as last commiter on most of them. They are older than the latest sc release, though. Hi - sorry for slow reply, I missed this thread. Most of the patches are by other people but I will try to comment: 02_disable_elisp_compilation.diff - not sure I'm afraid, it's connected with the emacs sc3 mode, which I don't use. Looks like it might disable something from running simply because the build machine isn't the target machine. 03_fix_elisp_install_path.diff - another emacs mode thing, not sure. 06_deb_scvim.diff - build machine != target machine so don't error out if no ruby executable 07_deb_sced.diff - build machine != target machine so don't modify machine's mime database 08_deb_scvim_checkactive.diff - the 'scvim' script is a wrapper which launches vim with the sc3 plugin. debian vim-addons policy requires the plugin not to be auto-enabled when installing, so we must modify the scvim script to detect if the addon is not enabled, and to help the user enable it if they want to. (Needs to be a patch since vim-addon-manager not necessarily used on all linuxes) 10_fix_rpath.diff - I'm not clear on why the change from -rpath to -rpath-link has to be done here as a patch. cc'ing this message to Артём who may be able to comment on this, and possibly others.

I specifically told him about some proprietary files that he removed. I'll double check this and let you know. If Dan would tell us what he changed meanwhile, that would help. Dan? I removed common/Source/lang/LangPrimSource/HID_Utilities/* since that had an apple copyright with a dubious gpl compatibility, and (in the svn packaging info) removed the apple entry from debian/copyrights as a result. (To be more accurate: We have a script that makes a pruned linux-source .tar.gz, so what I did was to add the folder to the list of what gets pruned out. The folder is still there in the upstream and used on mac.)

Re: SuperCollider package
Hi Alexandre, Felipe et al, Looking at the lintian issues for supercollider, I found the source of problem for the most important error (sharedobject-in-library-directory-missing-soname). I've fixed it in the upstream build script: http://supercollider.svn.sourceforge.net/supercollider/?rev=10372view=rev If you want to try applying that patch in your git, it should remove that particular problem. It'll be a while before a new point release so I'd suggest we add it as a specific patch for now.

SuperCollider package
Hello dear members of the Debian-Multimedia packaging team, I am interested in adopting supercollider. Would someone be interested in working with me on this? (I am not yet an uploader) My Alioth username is alexandrequessy. Should I fill a ITP bug? I didn't see its name in the orphaned packages. It has been orphaned in 2008-2009. See bug #454257. Quick link: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=454257 The package can currently be found on github.com/aalex/debian-supercollider: The usual location of the upstream tarballs is: http://sf.net/supercollider/SuperCollider-(.*)\-Source-linux\.tar\.gz I believe this software should go in non-free, since it unfortunately contains at least one proprietary file. See debian/copyright for more info. (search for the keyword Apple) Maybe we could patch it to remove those files, though. * Package name: supercollider Version : 3.4 Upstream Author : James McCartney and others * URL : http://supercollider.sourceforge.net/ * License : GPL v3 Programming Lang: C++, Smalltalk, Java, Python, bash Description : A real time audio synthesis programming language SuperCollider is an environment and programming language for real time audio synthesis and algorithmic composition. It provides an interpreted object-oriented language which functions as a network client to a state of the art, realtime sound synthesis server. -- Alexandre Quessy http://alexandre.quessy.net/ ___ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers
