2012-10-01 Thread Mònica Ramírez Arceda 
Hi,

According to [0], sweethome3d-furnitures-nonfree has not its
corresponding ITP bug, despite #689167 title. 

Please, could you file this ITP bug?

Thanks for your work!

Bug#682519: Quick notes

2012-10-01 Thread Asheesh Laroia 
First of all, let me say thank you for beginning the work to package 
this in Debian!


Wow... this is a solid package:

* You have a man page.

* It's lintian clean.

* /usr/bin/fbcmd doesn't have a .php extension.

How did you even manage to make such an excellent package!?

I can't find anything terribly wrong with it.

A few questions:

* You embed a copy of a jsonwrapper PHP module in 
/usr/share/fbcmd/facebook/jsonwrapper. Should that be in PEAR? and/or does 
fbcmd work with PHP's built-in JSON stuff? Just trying to minimize 
dependencies, especially embedded copies of them.


* A few scripts seem not useful for Debian users, namely: 
/usr/share/fbcmd/fbcmd_update.php /usr/share/fbcmd/support/test_php.php -- 
should those simply not be installed?


* Why does 'man fbcmd' not mention LOADINFO but 
/usr/share/fbcmd/support/sample-loadinfo-text.php does?


* Is /usr/share/doc/fbcmd/filelist.txt relevant to Debian users?

This is looking great. Great work on the copyright file, too. Hope you can 
answer those questions, and again amazing work.


-- Asheesh.

libticonv at mentors

2012-10-01 Thread Bart Martens 
Hi Albert,

I had a look at libticonv at mentors uploaded there on 2012-09-29 03:28.

About this in README, and the details missing in COPYING :

  |  (A special exception applies when linking the library into TilEm, see the
  |  COPYING file for details.)

I read this in debian/copyright :

  |  From: Benjamin Moody benjamin.mo...@gmail.com
  |  Date: Tue, Sep 4, 2012 at 3:50 PM
  |  All true, and if you want to drop that exception in future versions
  |  you'll have no objections from me.
  |  .
  |  This exception only ever applied to libticables2; if it's mentioned in
  |  the other libraries' README files I'm sure that was a mistake.

According to the AUTHORS file he is only author of the part TI8x charset
images.

I also read this in debian/copyright :

  |  From: Lionel Debroux lionel_debr...@yahoo.fr
  |  Date: Tue, Sep 4, 2012 at 1:09 PM
  |  Well, said exception was created years before my time as the maintainer...
  |  I _think_ that this exception is obsolete nowadays, as TilEm 2.0 is
  |  completely free software. TilEm 0.x used a component with a non-free
  |  license, but it has been replaced with free software for the TilEm 2.0
  |  release, produced this year, which Albert is attempting to package for
  |  Debian as well.

He writes before my time and I _think_, so he doesn't know.  And I don't
find his name as an author or as a copyright holder.

So at this point libticonv-1.1.3.tar.bz2 contains README and COPYING files with
incomplete license information, and so far upstream has not yet properly fixed
this issue.

The funny thing is that it was Lionel Debroux who added this exception in
README on 2009-11-24.  That seems to contradict with before my time.

 Hi Albert,

 I looked at the package uploaded to mentors on 2012-09-27 00:31.

Albert came on IRC, and was so enthusiastic I had a look too

These are comments I've also expressed on IRC, but I'm just putting them
on the record here. They're also in addition to Bart's comments (which
are, as usual, fantastic)

I believe this should target experimental, not unstable - this is a new
upstream release with a lot of changes (can't remember of what order it
was, but either 8K or 80K lines in the debdiff)

There are also fixes that are not minimal in the upload, so I'd
encourage three points:

  - Before any sponsor uploads this, please get a statement from the
release team ACKing (in theory, at least) this change.

  - If they refuse to allow this to migrate, please retarget to
experimental. Please also take a look to see if you may port some of
the bugfixes you're introducing here back to the old code.

  - If they allow it, it'd be nice to poke this thread to let us know :)

   But I don't find such exception in COPYING.  Actually, the file COPYING is
   identical to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2 so there's nothing specific
   to linking the library into TilEm in COPYING.
  
  Upstream confirms that this exception no longer applies, and as you've said
  COPYING does not have said exception. I've added a patch to remove that
  confusing clause.

 I read this in debian/patches/remove-tilem-copyright-exception.patch :

   |  Description: remove tilem copyright exception
   |   Removes the now invalid TilEm copyright exception from the README, 
 since the
   |   LICENSE file makes no mention of it, and upstream confirms that this 
 exception
   |   is no longer valid.
   |  Author: Albert Huang alberth.deb...@gmail.com

 But there is no LICENSE file.  I guess you meant the COPYING file.

 I suggest to not patch README but to quote what upstream wrote about this in
 debian/copyright including upstream's From and Date headers.

 Bart Martens

Interesting find - I'll again CC the upstream for clarification about this
issue (and for a potential fix).
I believe though that the project ownership has been transferred to Lionel
Debroux, so he may have more authority on copyright decision.
Again, CC'ing for clarification.

For now, I'll go with the ambiguous license specified in README and
reupload soon.

Thanks!
Albert

Fwd: libticonv at mentors

2012-10-01 Thread Albert Huang 
Hello,

Upstream forgot to use his reply all button, so I'm forwarding his
message accordingly.

Basically, a few key points:

   - According to upstream, the debian/copyright comment that I've placed
   in is valid.
   - Benjamin Moody and Lionel Debroux are indeed upstream maintainers.
   - The exception is now invalid, does not apply to the current packages,
   and will eventually be dropped in the upstream VCS (and future releases).

That said, should I still change the debian/copyright to include the
exception, or go with upstream and leave it as is?

Thanks!
Albert

 Nevertheless, I'll leave the current libticonv upstream to decide.
The SCM log mentions Benjamin as the source of the patch for for e.g.
SVN r4418, which is before 1.16. That, in my opinion, makes him an author.
It's a contribution to users. All that matters is that he added a (minor)
feature.

Having 100% accurate copyright information is impossible in a
10+-year-old code base where said information was, AFAICT, not tracked
properly
by the previous maintainers; I cannot pretend that I didn't let any
mention of authorship slip, though I tried to put such information in
the commit messages...

 And I don't find his name as an author or as a copyright holder.
Both Benjamin and I are, indeed.

  The funny thing is that it was Lionel Debroux who added this

That seems to do, but it does not :)

 Interesting find - I'll again CC the upstream for clarification
 about this issue (and for a potential fix).
 At the time I added this bit to the README, it had already existed for a
long time at other places, but not this one.
The non-free TilEm 0.9x (made years before my time as the maintainer)
still made sense, and therefore, the exception still made sense; but
nowadays, in 2012, with the advent of the TilEm 2.x, which is fully free
software, the exception does no longer make sense.
The forwards-looking fix is, AFAICT from the previous round of
discussion by e-mail, which you correctly put in the debian/copyright
file, to drop the exception. Debian is never going to package those very
outdated, and what's more non-free, versions anyway.

 I believe though that the project ownership has been transferred
 to Lionel Debroux, so he may have more authority on copyright
 decision.
Project co-maintainership was transferred to me, indeed.

Bye,
Lionel.

Help with patching PackageKit for *BSD

2012-10-01 Thread Matthias Klumpp 
Hi!
I don't think this is the right place to request this help, but I
don't know a better one at time... (RFH seems to be too big)
The problem is the following: PackageKit (Debian package
src:packagekit) recently became Linux-specific by accident, and I
need someone who knows *BSD/portable-programming better than I do to
make it compile on *BSD again.
The problem is this code:
http://gitorious.org/packagekit/packagekit/blobs/master/lib/packagekit-glib2/pk-spawn-polkit-agent.c
On *BSD I get:
pk-spawn-polkit-agent.c:24:23: fatal error: sys/prctl.h: No such file
or directory
compilation terminated.
make[5]: *** [libpackagekit_glib2_la-pk-spawn-polkit-agent.lo] Error 1

But I don't know how to solve this otherwise. Hints and patches
welcome! this is really the only issue which blocks PK on kFreeBSD at
time.
Many thanks for any help!
Regards,
   Matthias

It looks like it is missing a package that provides prctl.h

Well, the use of prctl is inherently unportable. So instead of having the forked
agent set up a signal in case of death of the parent, install a proper signal
handler right in the parent's code that kills all forked agents (so keep a
container containing all agent pids) upon reception of a signal.

Hope this helps,
Michael

IIRC a process group will make the maintainence easier.
You may want to check negative values in kill(2).

Yes, but if going this route make sure you set up your own process group -
otherwise you might be killing your parent as well.
