Hello! I am branching this off to its own topic to keep the communication clear.
First of all, a recap of current status: - Python 2 colortest got removed from Debian repos in September 2019: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/colortest-python - Pablo has packaged Python 3 colortest and with my sponsoring it was submitted to Debian, and has been sitting in the NEW queue for a month now: https://ftp-master.debian.org/new/colortest-python_3.0.1-1.html - Debian ftp-masters are overworked, the NEW queue processing will take some time - We have not had any feedback whatsoever from the ftp-masters yet And then to the tasks at hand: ma 24. helmik. 2020 klo 9.24 Paul Wise (p...@debian.org) kirjoitti: > https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.html#reintroducing-pkgs > > Principally this is about reopening bugs closed by the removal and > then triaging them and closing any fixed in the new version. > > https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#closing > > Last time I needed to do this, I ran this hacky shell one-liner: > > bts $(for bug in $(curl > 'https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?archive=both;src=colortest-python' > | pandoc -f html -t plain --wrap none | grep -B1 -F +rm | grep -o > \#[0-9]\\+ | tr -d \#) ; do echo -n "unarchive $bug , reopen $bug , "; > done) > > For your package it gives this command: > > bts unarchive 753281 , reopen 753281 , unarchive 936320 , reopen > 936320 , unarchive 782208 , reopen 782208 , unarchive 890074 , reopen > 890074 , Pablo: using this link you can see all bugs (also archived ones) for colortest-python: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?archive=both;src=colortest-python The status is currently "closed" for all of them, since they got mass-closed when the package was removed from Debian. From https://ftp-master.debian.org/removals-2019.txt: ========================================================================= [Date: Sun, 08 Sep 2019 04:42:39 +0000] [ftpmaster: Scott Kitterman] Removed the following packages from unstable: colortest-python | 2.2-1 | source, all Closed bugs: 920127 ------------------- Reason ------------------- python2-only; orphaned; dead upstream; low popcon ---------------------------------------------- Also closing bug(s): 753281 782208 890074 936320 Also closing WNPP bug(s): ========================================================================= The mass-closed ones should be unarchived and reopened as Paul Wise suggest. Please do that. Then later, when the new colortest-python enters Debian, you can close all of these bugs since looking at the subjects, they are all fixed in the new upload. Regarding bugs, you should also submit a new bug report where you state that you intend to adopt this package. We can then ask ftp-masters to add their NEW queue feedback into this new bug report, which basically would be: *** To: sub...@bugs.debian.org Title: ITA: colortest-python -- utility to test color capabilities of terminal *** Package: wnpp Severity: normal Hello! I would like to adopt this package. Work has already been done at https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/applications/colortest-python and package submitted to NEW in https://ftp-master.debian.org/new/colortest-python_3.0.1-1.html *** After that we keep waiting for the ftp-masters to review. - Otto
