 Looks fine on a first look, except that debian/copyright points to an
 unversioned GPL. While that won't stop me from uploading, it'd be nice
 if that could be changed to point to GPL-2 in a future upload.

 (I can also be convinced otherwise, that the unversioned link is fine,
 but it's probably easier to go with my suggestion :P).

OK.

 There's also one other thing though (still not a blocker, but worth
 mentioning): I installed the stumpwm currently in sid, and when I tried
 to run it from the unpacked and uncompiled dir of -2, I received error
 messages along these lines:

 *** - OPEN: File 
 #P/home/algernon/src/debian/sponsor/stumpwm/stumpwm-20110819.gitca08e08/version.lisp
  does not exist

 Changing directory, or building the sources did solve the issue. It's
 most likely not stumpwm related, but some CL thing, but still.

You have to run './autogen.sh  ./configure' to generate version.lisp
if you want to run it from source code.

 Desmond O. Chang doch...@gmail.com writes:

 I am looking for a sponsor for my package clfswm.

 Looks fine, and will upload as-is. A couple of suggestions for the
 future, however:

 You could simplify debian/rules by using an .install file to install
 /usr/bin/clfswm: Move debian/clfswm.sh to, say debian/bin/clfswm, and
 put debian/bin/clfswm /usr/bin/ in debian/clfswm.install. That'll do
 the right thing, and you have one override less!

 Also, the manpage could be put into debian/clfswm.manpages, and instead
 of building it in an override target, build it at, well, build time, by
 overriding dh_auto_build, or similar.

 I think these would make your debian/rules a tiny bit nicer.

Good ideas!  Thank you for pointing them out!

 Dear mentors,

 I am looking for a sponsor for my package stumpwm.

 Just an FYI for others: I'll be looking at this package tonight, and
 sponsor it if all goes well (together with clfswm).

Thank you!

 Also, a request to people posting sponsor requests: would it be possible
 to include either the appropriate parts of debian/changelog, or at least
 a list of bugs the upload would fix? Especially if it's not a new
 package.

 It would make it easier - at least for me - to see which packages I can
 find time and energy for.

I'll do that next time.

I suggest that Debexpo put them in the RFS template, like the old
mentors system.

 Hi Desmond,

 I am looking for a sponsor for my package stumpwm.

 I am not a DD so I can't upload your package.  However I am a stumpwm
 user, except I have been using the upstream git version until now
 because I initially had trouble using the Debian package and didn't have
 the time to troubleshoot.

 Technically the package looks fine, it builds cleanly in a sid chroot.
 Lintian has one pedantic warning:
 P: stumpwm: copyright-refers-to-symlink-license
 usr/share/common-licenses/GPL
 You may want to change that to GPL-2.

 You might want to use DEP-3 for patches.
 Consider updating your DEP-5 formatting:
   Format-Specification - Format
   Upstream-Source - Source
   Upstream-Maintainer - Upstream-Contact
 And you need to expand the short name for the license GPL-3+.

I will rewrite debian/* in some future releases.

 I faced some problems in using the package.  Initially, both clisp and
 sbcl would complain about Component 'stumpwm' not found.  I eventually
 found out that I needed a symlink:
 /usr/share/common-lisp/systems/stumpwm.asd -
 /usr/share/common-lisp/source/stumpwm/stumpwm.asd

 I presume the package was meant to set this link up itself, but for some
 reason it didn't.  I installed it using 'dpkg -i' after building it with
 'debuild'.

 Once I had set up the symlink, I was able to load and use stumpwm
 successfully with both SBCL and CLISP.

This is a bug of cl-asdf.  See #647544.

Stumpwm doesn't create the symlink because ASDF2 searches *.asd in
/usr/share/common-lisp/source/ by default.

In 2:2.018-1, due to #647544, cl-asdf searches in
/usr/common-lisp/source/, which doesn't exist.

Certainly you can make a symlink in /usr/share/common-lisp/systems/, but
this won't fix #647544.  The reason why it works is the file
'/etc/common-lisp/source-registry.conf.d/01-common-lisp-controller.conf'.

$ cat /etc/common-lisp/source-registry.conf.d/01-common-lisp-controller.conf 
(:directory  #p/usr/share/common-lisp/systems/)

If you have a user-level config file like this, ASDF will not find
stumpwm even the symlink exists:

$ cat ~/.config/common-lisp/source-registry.conf 
;; -*- mode: lisp -*-
(:source-registry
 (:default-registry)
 (:ignore-inherited-configuration))

 I would give you some more detailed feedback on using the package, but
 at the moment I am using stumpwm with GNOME 3 (in fallback mode) and my
 configuration -- which is pretty fragile -- was broken.  I believe this
 is because upstream git defaults to compiling an SBCL image as a binary,
 which has a marginally faster startup time.  Because the packaged
 version of stumpwm loads slightly slower, GNOME is (most times!) able to
 load its panel first, causing Stumpwm to load on top of it, which breaks
 the ability to use the GNOME panel.  [Suggestions welcome, I don't
 consider this a bug in the stump package because using stump with the
 GNOME panel seems to be quite a bizarre and non-recommended
 configuration.  I have been meaning to migrate away from it but didn't
 get the time.]

I never use gnome so I don't know how to solve it.  But I find this on
the mailing list:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.window-managers.stumpwm.devel/1424/

If it doesn't help, you can post your problem to the mailing list.


Thanks,
Des

 I am wondering whether it is neccessary to integrate it with

 since abcl is running on JVM, it does not have the schemes like other  CL
 implementations that support  dumping core/image.

 Maybe someone else can help here?

c-l-c has been deprecated in sid now.

I posted a c-l-c redesign plan [1] last month.  In fact, finally,
c-l-c will be *deleted*.  So ABCL *should not* depend on c-l-c.

Generally, all the implementations, which have included ASDF2, don't
have to work with c-l-c and cl-asdf.  For those not including ASDF2,
they can choose:

1. Build-Depends cl-asdf, then load it when compiling the image.
2. PreDepends cl-asdf, then load it when installing the image.
3. Depends cl-asdf, then load it when running the image.
4. patch asdf by themselves.
5. don't include asdf at all.

I don't follow mentors.  Please CC your reply to [2].

Any opinion about c-l-c redesign please reply to that thread [1].

 Recent c-l-c will NOT work with an older asdf, and older cl-launch
 will not work with newer asdf. They are very small self-contained

I'm going to upload c-l-c 7.4 to squeeze, it must depend on cl-asdf
