Bug#848932: ITP: perl-openssl-defaults -- Version compatibility baseline for Perl OpenSSL packages
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Niko Tyni * Package name: perl-openssl-defaults Version : 1 Upstream Author : Niko Tyni * URL : https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-perl/packages/perl-openssl-defaults.git * License : GPL-1+ or Artistic Programming Lang: Perl Description : Version compatibility baseline for Perl OpenSSL packages A subset of Perl XS module packages expose the OpenSSL binary interface to Perl code. This can lead to incompatibilities if these packages are linked against different versions of OpenSSL. . This package provides a virtual package "perl-openssl-abi-x" that corresponds to the libssl-dev package SONAME it was built against. The packages that need to stay compatible with each other can depend on this. . Tools are also provided for generating this dependency with minimum hassle. See the instructions in README.Debian. This was prompted by Perl modules segfaulting in a partial OpenSSL 1.0 -> 1.1 transition. See #848113 for the background. The package will be maintained in the Debian Perl Group (pkg-perl).

Bug#485975: details of the qooxdoo licensing problems?

You might want to read debian/copyright inside http://people.debian.org/~ntyni/qooxdoo_0.8.2-1.diff.gz but the blocker for me was that framework/source/resource/qx/icon/Oxygen/ was licensed under the LGPL but the source .svg files were not included. (The intentions of the copyright holders of the Oxygen library are made quite clear in http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Oxygen/Licensing ) Other than that, there was some code with the 'Good, not Evil' license that's problematic. It's a recurring topic on debian-legal, see for example http://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2010/03/msg00064.html It was also not clear which version of the LGPL applied to the whole of qooxdoo. I think the rest were trivial things like failing to reproduce copyright notices for MIT licenses and failing to include the whole text of the BSDish licenses. No other blockers IIRC. Qooxdoo upstream is aware of these; the last I heard of them was in March 2010 when Andreas Ecker said they are on their TODO list.

I've kept it alive in Debian until now and there are no serious problems, but if somebody adopts it they should probably take over upstream too. If nobody shows up in a month or so, I'll request removal from the Debian archive.

I expect the bundled Thread::Queue will be upgraded when Perl 5.10.1 gets in, not earlier. I don't see a problem with a separate package, feel free to go ahead. Please file a bug about the Conflicts/Provides list when the separate package enters the archive. The perl-modules package could Provide: libthread-queue-perl (without the conflict) with 5.10.0 already so only versioned dependencies will pull in the separate package. > Upgrading only Thread::Queue in perl-modules would also need upgrading > thread::shared because T::Q 2.11 needs t::s 1.21, while perl-modules has > 1.14.

Unfortunately, I think the chances of getting 3.8 into Lenny are low. The release schedule currently says a full freeze will start in the mid of July. As each major RT version is packaged separately to allow co-installation, 3.8.0 will be considered a new package, and those aren't accepted during a freeze. New packages need several weeks anyway to get to a state where they are considered for a release (at least ~1 week in the 'NEW' queue for manual license/copyright checks, + 10 days in the 'unstable' distribution so the worst bugs are found out). There hasn't been a release update lately so I don't know how realistic the schedule is looking. It's possible that the freeze will be delayed, but we can't really count on that. Our manpower situation is also quite bad. I'm currently pretty much the only one active on the Debian RT team, and my request for help (http://bugs.debian.org/469353, Cc'd) hasn't caught any attention so far. As maintaining the perl package is currently my first priority in Debian, I just don't have the time, and I also intend to spend most of July on a family vacation... So, unless you are prepared to go the whole way and get someone (not me, I've got the vacation) to put together a policy-compliant Debian package very soon and preferably commit to maintaining it, things are looking quite bad.

Hi Peer, I have some interest for glulxe (see #338476 and its friends, where I pretty much overdid the packaging), thanks for your effort in getting it into Debian. The packages look OK at first sight, but I'll take a closer look when I have more time. Please consider using 'libglkterm-dev' instead of 'libglkterm0-dev' - even if there's going to be a new API version at some point, there are so few packages using the library that having both the old and the new -dev package installable at the same time is most probably unnecessary.

Thanks for the notice, this is welcome! This doesn't seem to be quite so easy, though. The bundled files actually seem to come from scriptaculous 1.6.1, which bundles prototype.js from prototype 1.5.0_rc0, so they are all significantly older than their Debian counterparts. Furthermore, these files are in turn bundled by the cropper library from http://www.defusion.org.uk/ .

When Perl pulls a file via "require", it stores the filename in the global hash %INC. The next time Perl tries to "require" the same file, it sees the file in %INC and does not reload from disk. This module's handler can be configured to iterate over the modules in %INC and reload those that have changed on disk or only specific modules that have registered themselves with "Apache2::Reload". It can also do the check for modified modules, when a special touch-file has been modified. This package is needed for the recent upstream release candidate of libapache2-mod-perl2 (2.0.4 rc1, "Works with Perl 5.10"). The source package will probably be called libapache-reload-perl, as it's distributed on CPAN as Apache-Reload and contains modules for both Apache 1 and 2.

Bug#469353: RFH: request-tracker3.6 -- Extensible trouble-ticket tracking system
Package: wnpp Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Summary: please test request-tracker3.6 from experimental and/or help me with the normal package maintenance. The Debian Request Tracker Group could use some help. Although several people have been involved in the two years we have been working on RT-related packages, I'm currently the only active maintainer, and I have lots of other things to do too... The most pressing need is for somebody to test request-tracker3.6 3.6.6-2~experimental1 I just uploaded into experimental. From NEWS.Debian: This version adds maintainer scripts for basic RT setup. The database integration is done with the dbconfig-common package. The installation procedure tries its best to import old configuration values on upgrades, and all the resulting files are managed with ucf(1) so local modifications are never overwritten without permission. . The most visible change is the addition of the /etc/request-tracker3.6/RT_SiteConfig.d directory. Configuration snippets in this directory are concatenated together with the update-rt-siteconfig(8) command. . Integration with the web server and the mail system are still not handled automatically and require manual configuration for now. I think the changes are pretty cool, and obviously they work for me (modulo a couple of bugs in dbconfig-common related to remote database handling). Then again, I've been playing with them so much that I'm probably blind to many issues by now. I'd really like to get these changes into lenny, but I'm not prepared to upload into unstable without any test reports and comments. Beside this, there's the usual bug triaging and the like. Upstream responsiveness seems to vary, but we could certainly be better at feeding our changes and bug reports there. Note that some really old open bugs inherited from earlier RT versions are still relevant to 3.6, although they are currently open against request-tracker3.4. The package documentation in NOTES.Debian et al. could probably be improved too, if somebody is so inclined... :) The project is hosted as pkg-request-tracker on Alioth and the packaging is at svn://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-request-tracker/ . I'll be happy to add anybody interested in the group and help getting started, of course.

Bug#387046: ITP: request-tracker3.6 -- extensible trouble-ticket tracking system
Package: wnpp Owner: Niko Tyni <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Severity: wishlist * Package name: request-tracker3.6 Version : 3.6.1 Upstream Author : Jesse Vincent <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://bestpractical.com/rt/ * License : GPL v2 Programming Lang: Perl Description : Extensible trouble-ticket tracking system Request Tracker (RT) is an enterprise-grade ticketing system which enables a group of people to intelligently and efficiently manage tasks, issues, and requests submitted by a community of users. It features a web, email and command-line interfaces (see the package rt3.6-clients). . This is the 3.6 series of RT, it can be installed alongside the 3.4 series without any problems. . Written in object-oriented Perl, RT is a high-level, portable, platform independent system that eases collaboration within organizations and makes it easy for them to take care of their customers. . RT manages key tasks such as the identification, prioritization, assignment, resolution and notification required by enterprise-critical applications including project management, help desk, NOC ticketing, CRM and software development. We have formed an Alioth team for maintaining Request Tracker and will be adopting the currently orphaned request-tracker3.4 package as well. Interested developers are naturally welcome to join. We are hoping to get both 3.4 and 3.6 into etch, and then remove 3.4 before etch+1 when users have had their time to upgrade. This would be similar to what happened with sarge, which had both 3.0 and 3.4. Cheers, -- Niko Tyni [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Hi, unfortunately, just a few days ago I came to the conclusion that I don't really have enough time currently for committing myself to maintaining RT. There have been a few other people interested (at least Toni Mueller, Ivan Kohler and Tim Cutts), and I'm still hoping that the team gets going, which is why I haven't cancelled my ITA quite yet. I'm planning to wait until the weekend to see if somebody else from the prospective Alioth RT team takes over the ITA. If nobody does, I'll have to retitle it back to an O: bug. AFAIK, nobody has yet looked into 3.6 packaging properly. I guess the best help would be to take the current 3.4 package (or possibly the never-uploaded 3.4.5 version at [1] that I prepared in June), upgrade it to 3.6.1 and make it work :) [1] http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-request-tracker/packages/request-tracker3.4/trunk/ I'm Cc'ing [EMAIL PROTECTED], the Alioth project mailing list. I still think an Alioth team would be a good way to maintain RT, and I guess Toni Mueller or Ivan Kohler would be happy to add you to the project. I'm CCing Toni, as I'm not sure if he's on the list yet. I'm also CC'ing the ITA bug (#366551).

I mailed the upstream author a month ago and asked about the status of the software, as there hasn't been a new release since 2004 even though the documents indicate it's still in development. As I haven't had any response, I suppose the author has lost his interest in num-utils.

All of the packages except gtkglk are ready and available at mentors.debian.net. If anybody wants to pick them up, be my guest. If you can't find them, just ask me. I got no answer to my RFS for the packages on the debian-mentors list, and now looking back, I'm not surprised. The relationships between the packages are a bit complex, they use cdbs and I introduced automake to them to make the library packaging easier. All this makes the packaging a bit messy. I don't have the motivation to re-work the packages into something cleaner. Furthermore, keeping support for IFP makes them much more complicated, since that means the interpreters must be packaged with a separate shared library. All the necessary patches to the sources are separated in debian/patches, though, so they should be easy to rip out. I still think it would be nice to have at least glulxe packaged for Debian, and that's why I'm retitling these to RFPs. I would close the int-fiction-ifp RFP if it had been submitted by me. I don't consider the gains IFP gives worth the complications anymore. As for the others, I might be remotivated if there was some demand for them, so please contact me if you care :) Cheers, -- Niko Tyni [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Config::Grammar has gained a lot of new functionality with Smokeping 2.0, which is the main reason I thought about having it packaged. It is now much more strict about parsing the config file, and gives sensible error messages when it can. But I guess you're right - with only one package depending on it, there's not much point after all. > If you consider that the module is useful, please package it yourself. OK. I think I'll leave the ITP open for now in the hope the module suddenly becomes more popular and somebody wants it in Debian :) (I hope this is proper behaviour; if not, please correct me.) > Even I would like to offer you comaintainership of smokeping. We can put For the record, we're continuing this discussion elsewhere. Cheers, -- Niko -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Bug#298729: Config::Grammar ITP & Smokeping
Hi José, I'm planning to package the Config::Grammar Perl module, previously known as ISG::ParseConfig, for Debian (ITP #298729; Cc'd). This is the module Smokeping uses for configuration parsing, but I hope it would be interesting on its own too. The module is now at CPAN, and the forthcoming Smokeping version 2.0 (http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/smokeping-users/msg01370.html) will use the new module name. We'll still distribute the module in the Smokeping tarball as well. I just wanted to check that the ITP is OK by you - I guess you've got the first claim to the module, as you've been kind of packaging it along with Smokeping all this time. Feel free to take over the ITP if you want. (BTW, I'll need a sponsor when I get that far; offers welcome :) Cheers, -- Niko Tyni [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Package: wnpp Version: N/A; reported 2005-03-09 Severity: wishlist * Package name: libconfig-grammar-perl Version : 1.01 Upstream Author : David Schweikert * URL : http://search.cpan.org/~dschwei/Config-Grammar-1.01/ * License : Same as Perl. Description : A grammar-based config parser Perl module Config::Grammar is a module to parse configuration files. The configuration may consist of multiple-level sections with assignments and tabular data. The parsed data will be returned as a hash containing the whole configuration. . The grammar supplied upon creation of a new object is used to parse the configuration file and return helpful error messages in case of syntax errors. Config::Grammar can also generate documentation of the configuration file format and a template configuration file. -- Niko Tyni [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
