I have added your packages to the Multimedia Blends page, and they should eventually appear here: http://blends.debian.org/multimedia/tasks/drums Your ITP bug for dgedit did not really contain any information about the package (other than it was needed for drumgizmo to be in main).

I only count this team as one of the exciting things I am involved in, however: What I meant to say was that my reason for being relatively absent lately in this team has to do with my involvement at other areas of Debian: * Package Node modules for a "decentral Facebook replacement" usable by FreedomBox, and team up with Jérémy Lal on maintaining such JavaScript and Node modules and Node itself. * Help upstream X2go authors form a Debian packaging team, now also starring Reinhard Tartler of Debian Multimedia fame! Some of us are meeting in person at a german Skolelinux gathering mid february. * Hack on CDBS, with help from several new contributors, including IOhannes m zmölnig of Debian Multimedia fame! * Hack unofficially on calendarserver, trying to get a snapshot of v3.0 in usable shape (a customer of mine need group calendaring, which was temporarily dropped in v2.4) * Hack unofficially on an ikiwiki metaframework, needed to streamline the 20-40 website my girlfriend and I are working on - e.g. using Sass to isolate and perfect design patterns reusable across multiple webdesigns. * Package Ghostscript and related libraries, and move them to team maintainance in the recently revitalized Printing team. * Explore setting up and optimizing ARM hardware usable for FreedomBox - in preparation for joining the embeeded sprint late february in Cambridge together with my girlfriend.

Clearly, mma couldn't have been packaged without a changelog. Do you know where to find it? I would hope there is another location for these files than the package itself. Mma's package control.tar.gz only contains control md5sums mmadebian postinst prerm For example, a different package I maintain has these files in the debian/ directory. changelog compat control copyright files patches rules source watch So my question is where can I find the original files used to create this debian package? Sounds like you are confusing upstream and Debian parts: Even if upstream do ship a debian/ subdir, we should care for that ourselves, and will ship our debian/ part as a separate file when redistributing sources for our packaging - either as a diff or (with new dkpg-source format "3.0 (quilt)") as a tarball. As for your underlying question - how to start working on this package, based on existing official packaging efforts, here's a smart oneliner I just discovered to day, which generates a new Git repository from all officially archived prior releases of a package (i.e. relevant when the package was not previously maintained in a VCS): git-import-dscs --debsnap --pristine-tar --sign-tags mma Hope that helps, - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private signature.asc Description: Digital signature ___ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers

Clearly, mma couldn't have been packaged without a changelog. Do you know where to find it? I would hope there is another location for these files than the package itself. Mma's package control.tar.gz only contains control md5sums mmadebian postinst prerm For example, a different package I maintain has these files in the debian/ directory. changelog compat control copyright files patches rules source watch So my question is where can I find the original files used to create this debian package?

At http://wiki.debian.org/DebianMultimedia/DevelopPackaging it says quilt needs to be used for patch management, however at the moment I currently use dpatch. Is this okay, or will I need to change to quilt? Well, it says quilt *should* be used for patch management, because it's recommended but not mandatory. However, if you want to convert a package from dpatch to quilt, there is the '/usr/share/doc/quilt/examples/dpatch2quilt.sh' script in the Debian quilt package that does this automatically for you. You'll be surprised how easy this goes. ;) I'd just like to say that there is actually a bug on 1.1.8-1 (see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=564665), that I've only just noticed.

Is this okay, or will I need to change to quilt? On our last meeting we agreed that since we are rather short on uploaders, we require every package to have a "primary uploader" and that he may agree to use another packaging system or even some other packaging helper than debhelper. However, most current uploaders prefer debhelper and quilt, so that's why that's still recommended in our wiki pages. I've taken a brief look at lives, and while I haven't used it yet, it indeed looks very promising. I'll consider putting me in the Uploaders field. > If my membership is accepted, I'll change the maintainer field to > Debian Multimedia Maintainers > .
