RFP kmid2
Hello, I have been redirected here from Debian-KDE mailing list. I was asking for someone who packages kmid2, the port to KDE4 of kmid. It seems that the original RFP (bug #578750) has been ignored since the past May 2010, and that the original packager has left Kmid probably for personal reasons, inviting someone else to take care of the package. Is there anyone interested in this task? kmid2 is a very good application in my opinion for someone who just wants to listen to MIDIs and to do some karaoke in KDE because it's simple and with useful features like tempo and pitch control. It would be great to have this updated and developed version that integrates well within KDE4. Thank you Valerio P.S.: please, reply to me in CC because I'm not subscribed to this maling list. ___ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers

I was reffering to the use of the auto-updating Build-Depends via
DEB_AUTO_UPDATE_DEBIAN_CONTROL (and #311724), but I noticed now that you
use @cdbs@ without the DEB_AUTO_UPDATE_* thing.

Package: ices2 Version: 2.0.1-9 Severity: normal A dist-upgrade today upgraded ices2.

This of course caused the network to be problematic until the arp caches timed out. The package changing the ethernet address appears to be dnet-common which is now a dependency of ices2.

deadbeef ready for upload
Hi all,
I've just pushed many changes to the deadbeef repo, and I think it is now
almost ready for upload.
I managed to remove most of the bundled library (the other are not present
in Debian) and modified the patches to not phisically remove the additional
code.
I also switched to CDBS (thanks to Felipe and Jonas and the help they
provided me for milkytracker :)). I think that now the debian/rules file
and the debian/ directory look much cleaner.
Would someone please review it to check if I missed something, and upload
it?
Thanks

Does ices2 really need to have decnet installed and configured? The newest ices2 supports libroar, which supports libdnet. What seems wrong to me is not that linkage, but instead that the _library_ libdnet recommends the (apparent) _daemon_ dnet-common. When dnet-common apparently affect the running system by default, I believe it is wrong to claim that libdnet use it in all but unusual installations - which is the definition of Requires according to Debian Policy ยง7.2. It seems to me that libdnet should only suggest dnet-common. Or alternatively (and less favored IMO), that dnet-common should not activate any of its system-affecting features by default. - 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

This of course caused the network to be problematic until the arp caches timed out. The package changing the ethernet address appears to be dnet-common which is now a dependency of ices2. To clear this up: From #608812 ices2 depends libroar0. libroar0 recommends roaraudio-server which is virtual, muroard got selected. libroar0 depends libdnet. libdnet recommends dnet-common. The network setup thingy is part of dnet-common. Installing without it is possible. libdnet does not produce strange errors on missing dnet-common, it just detects the non existing support (implecide) and returns normal ENOSYS and friends. So no problem here if not installed. So please have a look if installing without recommends works. Depends of ices2 on libroar0 isn't the problem. I suggest to: close the bug as invalid (it's not ices2's problem) as the install does exactly what it is suppost to do: it try to set up the system in a way all features works OR re-assign it to source package dnprogs which includes libdnet and dnet-common and request for some better way to solve this. I do not consider this a ices2 bug as dnet-common is not a depends or recommends of ices2. Does ices2 really need to have decnet installed and configured? No, but: libroar0 is used and it depends on libdnet so installed libdnet is required (but the lib is very small and and stuff so I do not consider this a problem). Configrued: no but in the case you actually want to use DECnet support.

Hi Multimedia Packaging Wizards and Wizardrettes! I'm a long-time Debian user. I mainly work in perl. I'm author of nama, a text/graphic UI for multitrack recording based on Ecasound, and maintain a couple of CPAN modules.
