For new packages, we have a lot of state to track.  Package-specific
information like descriptions, download URLs, etc.; distribution-specific
information like votes, packaging problems and reviews, functionality
reviews; misc. rhetoric on the merits of including a non-ubiquitous package
in the distribution.

In the past, I have tried to maintain a lot of this information in one
central location, to periodically publish to the list. However, our
packaging maintenance grew faster than our infrastructure, and the process
of manually extracting information from mailing list traffic to put into a
data base, only to later be re-presented to the mailing list, no longer
makes sense.

Updates might not have a definite need to be put into a long-term
state-tracking system like Bugzilla, but I feel it would be beneficial to
track new packages in such a system, and it might make sense to have all
package-upload-relateted information kept in the same place (accessible by
the same scripts).

Yep. I would like "@ name" lines to be included wherever the user is pushing
a hint to me/the system. Including them in a downloadable hint should not be
necessary, since the hints will only be pulled in response to an update
event somewhere else (which will already include the package name).

The automatic download system can be configured to leave the "@ name" line
out if the supplied name matches the assumed name.

Actually, starting sometime soon the "@ " line may indeed be needed.


I have made a few revisions to http://cygwin.com/setup.html, but have not
committed the new version yet.

Basic changes are: a) Addition of #! lines to the setup.hint section, with
some description (and inclusion of them in the boffo samples); and b)
reworking of the "Submitting a package" section (the very end) to reflect my
take on the current state of our package submission procedures.

The updated version is available at http://naim-users.org/nmlorg/newsetup .
Please ask about anything that is confusing or doesn't sound quite right.
(Hopefully none of the changes look blatantly wrong.)

I am hoping the "automatic download system" mentioned will be put into place
by early next week.

Really, we'll just see whether that will really be needed. If people keep

This latter situation has not changed, so I have been working on the former
proposals during my free time.


I have a template web site showing information for a fictitious foomaster
program, partway through its ITP->acceptance phase, available at
http://shell.n.ml.org/n/package-maint/


This is what I would like to implement:

Creating an initial ticket:
 Go to http://example.com/package-maint/, fill out form with information and
email address. ALTERNATIVELY: Send new-style setup.hint to
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.

Initial tickets will have a status of UNCONFIRMED.

An email is sent to your address with the contents of the ticket (in
new-style setup.hint format). This message will have a Reply-To:
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and a
link to http://example.com/package-maint/confirm/XX-XXX
If you send an email to that address or visit that web address in a web
browser, the ticket will be moved to NEW and notification will either go to
cygwin-apps or to some Cygwin-maintainer-only address.

A Cygwin maintainer will review the ticket and move it to PENDING before it
will appear in the data base (PPL and elsewhere).

Ticket states can be UNCONFIRMED, NEW, PENDING, ACCEPTED.


Updating an existing ticket via the web:
 Go to http://example.com/package-maint/ and search by package name or go to
http://example.com/package-maint/view/PACKAGENAME . Modify fields, filling
in your email address (which will be saved as a cookie), then Commit.

Updating an existing ticket via email:
 Send a new-style setup.hint to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. This must have
an "@ packagename" line, but otherwise only needs entries that have changed.
(Usually this will just be curr: and prev:, unless the listed URLs were not
templated or changed locations, in which case #!hint, #!bin, etc. may need
to be supplied as well.)

A confirmation message will be emailed to you as with an initial ticket. The
confirmation message will contain a diff of the changes rather than the
complete hint.

Once you have replied to package-maint-confirm-XX... or gone to the web URL,
the change will be applied immediately. If the VERSION and/or RELEASE
changed, a message will be sent to cygwin-apps announcing the availability.
For all changes, a message will be sent to you (in addition to the initial
confirm), the package coordinator, and perhaps anyone on a package-specific
"Cc:" list.




For the web page, things like "Categories" and "Veto" need to be hyperlinks
to pages that describe what they are, when you should (or are allowed to)
use them, etc.

If anyone wants to suggest purely-cosmetic changes to the HTML, feel free to
mail me directly.


Anyway, is this crackrock? Good stuff? Suggest any tweaks?

This is only a convenience feature. The hint provided by the maintainer

Sure; it should not be a problem to have #!binary-only or #!bin-only serve
as an alias for an empty #!src. The goal is to have some specific action to
differentiate binary-only packages from externally sourced packages.

My idea for a web script would be to validate the data before it is sent to
cygwin-apps, if only to avoid "please fix X and repost" messages. If the
format validated, the script would then forward the message to the list with
an optional preamble/epilog on behalf of the maintainer. The part that
performed updates would either automatically scan the archives or at most
require someone to login to sources, go into the package's release/

(Build information is stored in the -src package, and is not used by any of
the backend utilities.)

This is powerful but time consuming to maintain. The  entry is pulled
from mailing list archives but must be tweaked by hand if the previously-
published (but unenforced) formatting guidelines aren't followed. The
 entry is pulled from the live setup.hint and is used to generate
the MPL and for other backend processes.

I would like to get away from using One Huge File to store everything known
about Cygwin's package repository. Individual contributors and package
maintainers should be able to modify many of the attributes of these
packages without needing my manual intervention. Plus, processing the entire
data file is time consuming and unnecessary if I only want to operate on one
package (to push an upload or perform a sanity check).

Currently, only my tools use the XML format. All of the utilities that deal
with setup.ini, including the most important utility--setup.exe itself--only
use the structured-text format found in current setup.hint files. The
proposal was to extend the setup.hint format using structured comments so
the existing setup-related utilities (including setup.exe itself) could
remain as they are.

A new method of storing package data base information, proposing packages, and announcing updates

2004-03-26 Thread Daniel Reed
This method was discussed briefly several months back, but I feel it may be
time to discuss, finalize, and move forward.

THIS WILL REQUIRE ALL PACKAGE MAINTAINERS TO CHANGE THEIR BEHAVIOR. It
should be a small change: just the addition of a few lines to each
setup.hint, but the new method will only be useful if all package
maintainers are happy with the change and are willing to ensure the new
method is followed.


Currently, I store all package information in a large XML document which I
update by hand whenever a new package is ITPd, an existing package is
updated, or some other change must be made against the live repository. XSL
transformations convert this XML document into several other formats,
including the plaintext PPL, MPL, and make files to automate downloading,
reviewing, and pushing packages into the live repository.

If nothing else, the XSL transformations on the XML document take a lot of
CPU time, which makes it slow to push packages, generate the PPL, etc.
Additionally, package information is spread between setup.hint files and the
XML file, making it hard for other Cygwin contributors to keep everything
synchronized.

The proposal from several months back was to extend the format of the
setup.hint files to include *all* package-related information. Currently,
setup.hint files only contain information necessary to build the master
setup.ini file--that is, information that would show up in setup.exe, or is
otherwise needed to prepare new packages for distribution by setup.exe.

In order to ease the in-place transition, it was agreed that the non-
setup.exe information should be stored as specially-formatted comments in
setup.hint. That is, information that is not used to generate setup.ini will
stay hidden from the utilities that generate setup.ini (so these utilities
will not need to be modified ahead of time).

One proposal was to use the sharp/bang notation traditionally used to denote
executable script files, leaving all other lines beginning with a sharp (aka
hash or pound) as un-interpreted comments. Since these files are not truly
executable files (and can not be made executable without modifying the
utilities that generate setup.ini), it will be important to ensure that no
setup.hint begins with a sharp/bang special comment.

For example:

The procedure [on my end] for pushing new packages would be:
  1) Wait for the announcement that a new package is available.
  2) Grab the %{hint} file from the URL in the existing .hint file. This will
allow a package maintainer to move URL bases around with the only backward-
compatibility requirement being that a stub .hint file be left in the prior
location. (If the value of %{hint} changes between the existing .hint and the
newly-downloaded .hint, step 2 will be repeated at least once.)
  3) Using URL bases in the new .hint, grab the %{bin} and %{src} packages.
  4) Perform automated sanity checks against the bin package.
  5) Push the new hint, bin, and src packages into the live repository.

After step 5, the automatic utilities will notice the new package and regenerate
setup.ini with the new .hint's information.

I envision the syntax for a push to be something as simple as:

  cd release/.util; make upgrade NAME=foomaster CURR=2.0-3 PREV=1.3

%{bin}, %{src}, and any other URLs will be evaluated with %{version} = 2.0 and
%{release} = 3 in this case. If CURR

I had hoped I could sneak away without being missed, but the hotels I stayed

been spending much of my free time building a robotic car for this past
week's DARPA Grand Challenge (which was an amazing success).

After things have settled down a bit more I hope to restore the level of
commitment to Cygwin development. I am happy to see that the temporary Dan-
outage wasn't devastating, though, and would be happy to let Igor continue
maintaining the PPL indefinitely, or just so long as it takes me to fully
catch up.

Thanks for bearing with me,

I have already uploaded the package, so any changes made now would have to
increase the release number. I do not believe this change would be worth
having everyone download the entire package again.

If this is a major difference, you might do better having the package itself
be named "apache-eapi", and leaving the documentation scheme unmodified (so
your documentation would be in usr/share/doc/apache-eapi-1.3.29-1/). The
convention is to use usr/share/doc/PACKAGE-VERSION/ or
usr/share/doc/PACKAGE-VERSION-RELEASE/ .

Both of these have just been uploaded, but in the future I would prefer if
the Cygwin-specific version number was used to name the Cygwin-specific
README and the usr/share/doc/ directory.

That is, even if the upstream version is 0.50-2, if you are calling it
0.50.2-1 in Cygwin the Cygwin-specific README should be
usr/share/doc/Cygwin/aspell-de-0.50.2-1.README, not
usr/share/doc/Cygwin/aspell-de-0.50-2.README (since 0.50-2 is a valid
potential version-release name for a Cygwin package).

When I extract this, I have .README and doc files for aspell-de-0.50-2
(instead of 0.50.2-1). If that is correct, I can renumber it to 0.50-2 in
apps.xml and upload, otherwise just let me know when to re-download.


And on that note, I believe *I* am now all caught up on the past 1.5 weeks'
worth of traffic. A PPL will be sent out on Tuesday as usual; if you sent an
update to cygwin-apps and did not see me reply, please re-send it.

Since there was already a good functionality review, and the layout seems
right, I believe the joe package is ready for upload.

One minor nit, though: The setup.hint lists a dependency on "ncurses" when I
believe it should be something like "libncurses7"; I am on the road and did
not bring a Cygwin machine with me, so if you can either modify your
setup.hint, or just let me know if cygcheck gives a dependency on
cygncurses7.dll (or 6.dll or whichever), I will upload joe tomorrow.

Thanks,

Everything in usr/man and usr/doc should be moved to usr/share/man and

The help2man package is now only missing a "good to go" review.


I am going to try to make a dent in the backlog of all-but-reviewed packages
sometime this week. However, anyone who would like to see their favorite
proposed packages uploaded can feel free to install the package, do some
sanity checks on the packaging and basic functionality, and try to build the
package from its source package.

Any reported problems will be held against the package until its proposer
announces a fix (or just says the problems are insignificant; I will
typically trust their judgment). A review including the phrase "good to go"
will remove the last major obstacle to uploading. Once a package has one
"good to go", three votes, and no problems, I will perform a last set of
sanity checks and upload it.

I believe I am all caught up from this past week's posts. A PPL will go out

It looks like while I was out gtypist and perl-libwin32 fulfilled all of
their requirements, so unless anyone sends me a note asking otherwise, I am
going to upload those packages tonight.

Since it has met all formal requirements, I have uploaded cabextract. (The

However, Jari Aalto has not posted to cygwin-apps since November of last

This file does not appear to be a Cygwin source package. The existing 2.31-2
source package includes only the vendor source package and the README file,
so technically it is not a Cygwin source package either.

http://cygwin.com/setup.html includes instructions for creating a Cygwin
source package. Specifically, you will need a patch (which may be 0 bytes)
and a shell script to patch and compile the sources.

I just fixed both problems in my Makefile.am.  0.11.6.5 is just around the

That's my mistake; I fixed the XSL, so it shouldn't happen again, but I am
not sure whether to rename 2.4.0-4 to 2.4.0-1 or just leave it.

For setup-gurus: Would renaming it cause everyone to re-download the package
as an "update"?

There does not seem to be much precedent for having a "package" that only
has a -devel; the closest appears to be "db", which looks to be more of a
grouping of similar packages (but feel free to look for yourself in case I
missed another example).

Typically -devel packages are subordinate to [and built from] some other
package. There are .exe files in this -devel, so it might make sense to move
at least those (and usr/share/*) into an actual "openldap" package, and
leave the manual pages, headers, and static libraries in -devel.

I pulled the bin and could only notice a change in the Cygwin documentation.
Is it important that this be uploaded, or can the change wait for the next
upstream release?

Alright, I will go back and count any votes they received already (I think
they may already have received the three votes and I didn't count them
because otcl/tclcl are Harold's).

As to the rest: ddd is X; GraphicsMagick is a feature-for-feature
replacement of ImageMagick; and pdksh is an existing package that is
changing maintainers.

I'm sorry if I missed it, but is libsmi entirely self-contained now? I do

) IIRC, Harold indicated that GraphicsMagick is offered as a non-X package,
) and thus should be voted on (or, rather, he did for ImageMagick, and then
) said that GraphicsMagick fully replaces that).

I considered ImageMagick's to be votes for GraphicsMagick, and just marked
it exempt instead of putting in three dummy votes.

The setup.hint lists 1.8.2-1 as current and 1.6.7-1 as the previous version;
did you want me to remove 1.8.1-1 instead of 1.6.7-1? Right now all three
are present, but 1.8.1-1 is unused.

RFC: "good-to-go" review checklist

2003-12-01 Thread Daniel Reed
I would like to set up a formal checklist for good-to-go reviews, including
the old stand-by's like "executable should be stripped", and perhaps going
into some usability issues common to Cygwin apps or classes of Cygwin apps
(X apps, console, Win32 GUI, etc.).

I do not have an initial checklist to propose yet, so this is more of
general heads-up.

Eventually I would like all new good-to-go reviews to either dump the
checklist with a statement saying the package met all requirements, or
otherwise make it clear the reviewer kept the checklist in mind.

I would also like to code the list of steps/potential problems and have all
 in apps.xml reference specific steps. If a reported problem does
not seem to easily classify as one of the checklist entries, I would
consider adding a new checklist entry on the fly.

For simple "problem" reviews, I would not require reviewers to list problems
by checklist ID. However, it might be easier to automate mail->PPL
extraction if some semi-standard syntax could be agreed upon to say "this
package has a problem because X".

In the PPL, I was thinking of listing the checklist entry description (and
perhaps common ways to fix the problem) in addition (or in place of?) the
free-form problem report that is currently listed. This could significantly
lengthen the PPL, though.

I would also like to modify cygwin-apps/package-maint/ to allow reviews to
be sent through that interface. The page could list the checklist steps as a
set of [X] boxes that can be checked off, perhaps with hyperlinks to
additional information about the problem/how it might be solved. This would
additionally allow package proposers to go through the checklist as a last
step before submitting a proposal.

Anything that can be checked automatically could either be performed using a
downloadable set of scripts [to be available from /package-maint/ and/or
/setup.html], or possibly a  upload on a Cygwin-running web server,
performed in real time.


In any event, I'm about half asleep and just wanted to get this sent. If
anyone [in addition to Igor, I'm sure] would like to work on this off-list,
at least until an initial checklist proposal can be drafted, feel free to
contact me privately. If you already have a checklist (beyond the "Making
Packages" section of http://cygwin.com/setup.html) and just want to send
that along, that's fine too.

Thanks,

Re: [Review - Good to go] suite3270 [Needs 1 more vote]

I don't normally list reviewers as voting "pro" automatically. I think it
might be important that people can feel free to review package proposals
without giving the impression they approve of the software contained in the
package.

That is, I might review a package I have no familiarity with in order to
ensure its packaging complies with conventions, its setup.hint lists correct
dependencies, that running the .exe does not cause obviously incorrect
behavior, etc.  I probably would not provide a "good to go" unless I was
familiar with the program, but I could conceivably provide one even if I did
not have an opinion on whether it should be included or not, just for the
sake of speeding things along.


That being said, I will list you as voting pro for suite3270. The suite3270
proposal is now only one vote away, as you stated.

This release includes usr/doc instead of usr/share/doc. There is also a
usr/share/CMake/include and I'm not sure why it isn't usr/include/cmake, but
that's between you and your god.

I'll hold off on uploading until you announce 1.8.2-2 or tell me to go ahead
and upload this as-is.
