* Package name : orocos-log4cpp Version : 2.8.0 Upstream Author : Orocos Developers <orocos-...@lists.mech.kuleuven.be> * URL : https://github.com/orocos-toolchain/log4cpp * License : LGPL Programming Lang: C++ Description : C++ library for flexible logging Log for C++ is a library of C++ classes for flexible logging to files, syslog and other destinations. Orocos-log4cpp is maintained by Orocos developers. This version of log4cpp deviates from the official release by adding custom category factories. Orocos requires this for setting up real-time logging. - why is this package useful/relevant? is it a dependency for another package? Yes, orocos-ocl that belongs to orocos-toolchain (as project) - do you use it? if there are other packages providing similar functionality, how does it compare? We use it in our lab. Yes, we have another version in debian of the same. This is a fork, with more capabilities of log4cpp. I have tried to convince upstream to fusion both projects. Also I have tried to do it myself, but I was not able to that. The orocos developers have design their fork in the way that could be co-installabled, because they have increased the SONAME. However, the -dev package is not co-installable with the original one. Also, I have renamed this version with orocos-log4cpp. - how do you plan to maintain it? inside a packaging team (check list at https://wiki.debian.org/Teams)? Inside debian-science team. I have done a preliminary work in: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-science/packages/orocos/log4cpp.git - are you looking for co-maintainers? do you need a sponsor? Yes, both. Any help will be welcome. All orocos-toolkit is a complex piece of software. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
