The issue is being tracked here: > https://salsa.debian.org/salsa-ci-team/pipeline/-/issues/182 Thanks for the quick response, Felix. You say that "[you] will probably start setting $LANG in that part of Lintian." what LANG will you be using? Attempting to set LANG=en_US.UTF-8 in my salsa ci variables resulted in setlocale(3) failing all over the place, presumably due to the locale not having been generated. -- nick black -=- https://www.nick-black.com to make an apple pie from scratch, you need first invent a universe. signature.asc Description: PGP signature

lintian groff-message warning "can't set the locale"
Hello there! My Salsa CI pipeline is blowing up in the lintian step, with lots of warnings of the form: "W: notcurses-bin: groff-message usr/share/man/man1/notcurses-demo.1.gz can't set the locale; make sure $LC_* and $LANG are correct" This is printed for each man page I package. An example run is here: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/notcurses/-/jobs/1107065 The only reference I could find was https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=606933, which didn't seem relevant. Is this due to having supra-ascii UTF8 characters in my man pages? Is there anything I can do to work around this? I tried exporting LANG to a UTF-8 locale in my salsa variables section, but that didn't help. I'm using pandoc to generate my man pages, and it happily accepts UTF-8, but I can see a case for restricting them to ASCII. Thanks! -- nick black -=- https://www.nick-black.com to make an apple pie from scratch, you need first invent a universe. signature.asc Description: PGP signature
Bug#972873: ITP: fdb -- FDB (Fields DataBase) is a domain-specific object store for storing, indexing and retrieving GRIB data.
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Alastair McKinstry * Package name: fdb Version : 5.7.0 Upstream Author : ECMWF (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts) * URL : http://github.com/ecmwf/fdb * License : Apache 2 Programming Lang: C++ Description : FDB (Fields DataBase) is a domain-specific object store for storing, indexing and retrieving GRIB data. FDB (Fields DataBase) is a domain-specific object store developed at ECMWF for storing, indexing and retrieving GRIB data. Each GRIB message is stored as a field and indexed trough semantic metadata (i.e. physical variables such as temperature, pressure, ...). A set of fields can be retrieved specifying a request using a specific language developed for accessing MARS_ Archive FDB exposes a C++ API as well as CLI tools_. This is to be used by the rest of the ECMWF (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts) stack currently on Debian - Metview, etc.
Bug#972869: RFA: fmtlib
Package: wnpp Severity: normal Hello, This package needs a more responsive maintainer. I unfortunately haven't had enough time for months and this is unlikely to change in the near future. fmtlib is a modern C++ library, it provides fast and type-safe replacement of (s)printf and related machinery. What needs to be done: - package a new upstream release; - solve a (documentation-related) FTBFS; - potentially make a shared library instead of a static library. Regards, -- Eugene V.

Bug#972850: ITP: soong -- Soong build system for Android
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Andrej Shadura -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA256 * Package name: soong Version : 20201014 (17e97d9) Upstream Author : Google Inc et al * URL : https://android.googlesource.com/platform/build/soong * License : Apache-2.0 Programming Lang: Go Description : Soong build system for Android Soong is a build system for Android built on top of Blueprint, a meta-build system. Soong is the replacement for the old Android make-based build system. It replaces Android.mk files with Android.bp files, which are JSON-like simple declarative descriptions of modules to build. This initial packaging is mostly to bring the relevant Go package into Debian; the binary package will not initially be directly usable except within a full Android build tree. At some point, a Debian-specific build of Soong (dh_soong?) may appear allowing to build Debian packages of Android tools directly with Soong. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- iQFIBAEBCAAyFiEEeuS9ZL8A0js0NGiOXkCM2RzYOdIFAl+VMakUHGFuZHJld3No QGRlYmlhbi5vcmcACgkQXkCM2RzYOdJyuQf8C0iZzGGI6dIKS+g3y3VOQFYLdQzx sfu2qP2coxMHFNoGEd0XZCvyxcprq8rKpL6kFgJ2plLbibuVWRKYIUqxbh1NVg35 ejqpll+QU3zhEoF5A1mW2DIqlfX6D6h//RDkP3LGvbK+82AFNjHFKCwGgoqPD/TD s1R6g4mhGVC0ZUUCX6L2bEH+xKupUxU+nTbKTieaHKS2rs5G9RNBkulrDCdFETcn vwByriR6m9tMFu1SAo3xCcOgJvv83KSY81zJnRLTCHuU705R5W8B9bh+AU0WhlMZ JOsUSAjttXAdAojgVk2EAUUFaP9NTfLpUZ9+10vo/tySTKRX+cLMGwZh0g== =Yr8Y -END PGP SIGNATURE-
Bug#972851: ITP: golang-github-evanw-esbuild -- extremely fast JavaScript bundler and minifier
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Anthony Fok * Package name: golang-github-evanw-esbuild Version : 0.7.19-1 Upstream Author : Evan Wallace * URL : https://github.com/evanw/esbuild * License : Expat Programming Lang: Go Description : extremely fast JavaScript bundler and minifier esbuild is a JavaScript bundler and minifier. It packages up JavaScript and TypeScript code for distribution on the web. . Why build another JavaScript build tool? The current build tools for the web are at least an order of magnitude slower than they should be. It is hoped that this project serves as an "existence proof" that JavaScript tooling can be much, much faster. Reason for packaging: Needed by Hugo 0.74.0 and up.
