The /etc/init.d/*.init files need to be modified, if I recall right the
if-*{up,down}.d scripts too, there is some subtle changes needed to
implement the method Ubuntu uses.

Ubuntu has pretty good Openstack implementation, how Open vSwitch is
basically fired up is if a network interface is onlined before OVS
starts, OVS is started. OVS is started after the networking service.
The openvswitch-switch.service file prevents the running on
/etc/init.d/openvswitch-switch during startup.
One of the challenges here is when OVS is started up, it may create
network devices, which triggers ifup ... if this happens during the
start of networking you have a problem, it is also a problem because the
ifup script tries to start the service if its not running. Under stretch
this collides horribly causing a very very long startup delay, OVS
starts starting, brings up a network device, ifup is run, which in turn
tries to start OVS while its already starting.
This is the reason why SYSTEMCTL_SKIP_REDIRECT is used.
There is also the other Open vSwitch services, and quite a few of them
depending on what you're doing. For instance on a controller,
ovsdb-server is started 3 times, once for SB, once for NB and once for
vswitchd to manage each of the databases.

Excellent! Did you manage to publish some work, e.g. in some git repo somewhere? FWIW, I found out v2.0.14 was released upstream on 2013-10-26. Furthermore, Bug #735120 (non-free w3c icons) is fixed upstream in https://gitlab.devlabs.linuxassist.net/policyd/policyd/commit/925edf8630b83e3f474e47490369b830829a16b6, at around 2014-05. So it should not be that hard to get postfix-cluebringer back in Debian... I've not had a terrible amount of time since then to work on the package. I have discussed the path I want to take with Eriberto and Tobias, but after spending a few days on it, I realized it will take a few more. Since then I've gotten a few other packages into Debian, but I've just been a bit busy with DC15 and DC16 this year. What I need to do is fix upstream a bit more, then rename the package. But at the same time fixing naming upstream to be in line with this. If you have any suggestions or want to discuss, just let me know :) -N -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#761207: ITP: awit-dbackup -- Flexible one archive per directory backup tool
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Nigel Kukard nkuk...@lbsd.net * Package name: awit-dbackup Version : 0.0.22 Upstream Author : Nigel Kukard nkuk...@lbsd.net * URL : http://www.dbackup.org * License : GPL-3+ Programming Lang: Perl Description : Flexible one archive per directory backup tool This is a backup software package which basically creates one archive per directory it backs up. This makes searching through the backup much easier as you can look for which files you're after in the directory hierarchy. It will only backup directories which have changed, which makes it rsync friendly. - why is this package useful/relevant? This package is extremely useful in backing up very large datasets or virtual containers. It creates one archive per directory being backed up using a number of compression options. Should contents change, and those contents are isolated to something like new files being added, it will not touch the previous archive. This makes it very efficient and rsync friendly. As there is one archive per directory being backed up, you can easily browse through the backup set and choose what you want to restore. - do you use it? Extensively when backing up virtual containers and large filservers. - if there are other packages providing similar functionality, how does it compare? I do not believe there is a tool which offers this flexibility. Its got quite a unique purpose. - how do you plan to maintain it? inside a packaging team (check list at https://wiki.debian.org/Teams)? are you looking for co-maintainers? I have multiple paid staff who are employed to maintain the software package and for whom I will accept MR's for. I will handle the packaging myself and uploading for the sponsor. - do you need a sponsor? I do need a sponsor.

Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Nigel Kukard nkuk...@lbsd.net * Package name: cputool Version : 0.0.7 Upstream Author : Nigel Kukard nkuk...@lbsd.net * URL : https://gitlab.devlabs.linuxassist.net/cputool/cputool * License : GPL-3+ Programming Lang: C Description : Utility which manages CPU usage and system load CPUTool allows the limiting of cpu usage of a process or a process group to a given limit and allows the suspensions of process execution if the system load exceeds a defined treshold. - why is this package useful/relevant? is it a dependency for another package? This package is very useful for running backups from, or any operation which is disk IO intensive. It pauses the process and waits for system load to drop, when it has dropped it is resumed. This can occur multiple times per second. It can also be used to give processes slices of CPU time to use. This is useful when you want a program to only use a specific amount of CPU time. Combined with the above, it can limit heavy CPU and IO operations by giving out only a percentage of CPU time and pausing the process should the threshold be exceeded. Another sneaky thing you can do is run PHP in FCGI mode under cputool to limit CPU usage. - do you use it? if there are other packages providing similar functionality, how does it compare? I do use this utility on a large number of systems when doing backups or heavy IO or CPU intensive operations. and - Auto Nice Daemon schedtool - Queries/alters process' scheduling policy and CPU affinity cpulimit - tool for limiting the CPU usage of a process CPUTool is different that it allows the limiting of CPU time to process groups in addition to single processes. It also monitors load and pauses the process should this exceed the specified threshold. I got the idea for CPUTool from certain commercial vendors who while providing the source code to similar tools had no intention on me assisting them on improving them. I then wrote CPUTool which is its entirely own implementation and only borrows ideas from other projects. - how do you plan to maintain it? inside a packaging team (check list at https://wiki.debian.org/Teams)? are you looking for co-maintainers?

Hi there Eriberto, On 09/07/2014 09:50 PM, Eriberto wrote: Your package appears good. We need some last changes to upload it. 2014-09-07 12:36 GMT-03:00 Nigel Kukard nkuk...@lbsd.net: Hi there Eriberto, No problem at all, I really do appreciate your time :) Oh, thanks! I saw your work, applying the corrections pointed by all people. So, I will try to help you to finish this package. I thank you again for your valuable input and time Eriberto. My new observations: 1. d/control: remove the name 'PPP Gatekeeper' from short description because when anyone execute an 'apt-cache search', the package name will be showed. Do an '$ apt-cache search a' and you will see that the packages names aren't showed in short descriptions. I have rectified this, thank you for pointing this out. I'm looking at d-policy #3.4 #5.6.13 but I can't find what the length limit is. I kept the entire line to under 80 to be sure. 2. d/copyright: - About your question, yes, you need split to 'Files: *' and 'Files: debian/*'. The Nigel upstream and Nigel packager can do different works. Imagine you have your upstream program as 2001-2013 and a package did in 2005. However, you need fix some issues in packaging. So, you will have an upstream code 2001-2013 and a packaging 2005-2014 (in other words, your program isn't copyrighted 2014). You can see two examples here[1][2]. [1] http://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs/main/v/volatility-profiles/unstable_copyright [2] http://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs/main/p/phpwebcounter-extra/unstable_copyright - Other issue is that ppp-gatekeeper file says: Copyright (C) 2008-2014, Linux Based Systems Design. Your d/copyright say: Copyright (C) 2010-2014, Thankyou for pointing this out. I have rectified this mistake and added a note to my own checklist. :) I have two questions to ask clarification on: 1. If there were 100 files, each file having a different date range in the copyright line, would I need to list each and every one? For instance, say a package is the combination of a few other projects, its quite possible that some may list 2014, some 2009-2014, some 2004-2005 for instance. 2. My second question is if there are say 5 people listed in the files copyright line, how would these be properly listed? would the first one appear on the copyright line in d-control and the rest below it indented 1 space from the left? Linux Based Systems Design. Note that here we have another issue: the upstream is Linux Based Systems Design and the packager is Nigel Kukard. They aren't the same person. So, we have: Files: * Copyright: 2008-2014 Linux Based Systems Design License: GPL-3+ Files: debian/* Copyright: 2014 Nigel Kukard nkuk...@lbsd.net License: GPL-3+ I always like to put a contact for upstream. So, I suggest it (implement if you like this): Files: * Copyright: 2008-2014 Linux Based Systems Design, by Nigel Kukard nkuk...@lbsd.net License: GPL-3+ You can see an example here[3].

I've also gone through the above links you pasted.

As curiosity, why you says 'Source: https://gitlab.devlabs.linuxassist.net/ppp-gatekeeper/ppp-gatekeeper' in d/copyright but uses 'http://download.allworldit.org/ppp-gatekeeper' in d/watch? The first link is the revision control site used for the project, The copyright URL points to the revision control site as it is the most up to date. The package was downloaded from the second link you mentioned. While the first site offers limited downloading, it lacks hashes and also doesn't support signatures. On the second site the sources are hashed and signed. It also lists all versions nicely and in a nice order. This download link is also listed in the wiki on the project site. I can change the URL in the copyright file, I just thought it best to point to the revision control URL as this is most up to date. 5. You have a Lintian message to fix: 'P: ppp-gatekeeper: maintainer-script-without-set-e postrm'.[4] [4] https://lintian.debian.org/tags/maintainer-script-without-set-e.html I did have /bin/sh -e , but I have now rectified this to explicitly use set -e :) I need your last effort to be all right. :-) I've been over all mails twice, and I am hoping very much that this time all is good.

Could you please clarify this. Upstream (me) already has a debian/ directory, would these files not fall under the Files: * section currently in d/copyright? Do you want me to put the following section in regardless of the above? * Files: debian/* Copyright: 2014 Nigel Kukard License: GPL-3+ * - The information in d/copyright is different from upstream code. There is a license file saying GPL-2. However, ppp-gatekeeper file says 2008-2014 GPL-3+. The file ppp-gatekeeper correctly states GPL-3+ , the d-copyright file correctly states GPL-3+, the upstream LICENSE file also states GPL-3+. Could you please clarify which file you are referring to? 3. d/ppp-gatekeeper.dirs: remove etc/modprobe.d because d/ppp-gatekeeper.install will create it. I'll sort this out, thanks for pointing it out. 4. d/ppp-gatekeeper.install: you are installing a file inside /etc/shorewall. However, shorewall is a suggestion, not a dependency. So, you must put contrib/start.shorewall in usr/share/docs/ppp-gatekeeper/examples and write a d/README.Debian to explain about how to use this file. I'll sort this out, thanks for pointing it out. 5. d/rules: - override_dh_installdocs: don't install AUTHORS as docs. This information should be provided by d/copyright. I suggest to use d/ppp-gatekeeper.docs ($ man dh_installdocs). I already removed this from my last upload, as indicated by https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=751009#56 as it does not contain any useful information for a user. - override_dh_clean: I suggest to use d/clean ($ man dh_clean). Already fixed in the latest upload as indicated in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=751009#56 - You are creating/deleting a manpage.1 but the correct level is 8. I have corrected this, thank you very much for pointing it out. 6. You have Lintian messages to solve: W: ppp-gatekeeper: new-package-should-close-itp-bug Already fixed as per above. E: ppp-gatekeeper: description-is-pkg-name PPP Gatekeeper Already fixed in latest upload, mentors lintian no longer shows this message. I: ppp-gatekeeper: extended-description-is-probably-too-short I already expanded the description.

Bug#758696: ITP: ppp-gatekeeper -- PPP Gatekeeper manages and load balances main, redundant and failover PPP connections
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Nigel Kukard nkuk...@lbsd.net * Package name: ppp-gatekeeper Version : 0.1.0-201406111015 Upstream Author : Nigel Kukard nkuk...@lbsd.net * URL : http://gitlab.devlabs.linuxassist.net/ppp-gatekeeper/ppp-gatekeeper * License : GPLv3+ Programming Lang: Perl Description : PPP Gatekeeper manages and load balances main, redundant and failover PPP connections PPP Gatekeeper is a daemon that manages PPPOE connections supporting various levels of redundancy and failover. . Traffic can be routed using round-robin and random strategies over links of similar priority. Static IP route lists can also be provided for specific routing purposes. DNS can also be load balanced over multiple links. - why is this package useful/relevant? This package is useful because it allows one to configure multiple PPP connections and actively load balance default/static routing and DNS over these links. It also allows failover connections to be established which will then receive the relevant routing table(s) when the main link(s) go down. It is extremely useful for those who have multiple DSL lines or which want to use something like 3G or other methods as a backup should the main link go down. - how do you plan to maintain it? I am the upstream and plan to maintain it using a separate git project on our gitlab system. https://gitlab.devlabs.linuxassist.net I have multiple paid staff who are employed to maintain the software package and for whom I will accept MR's for. I will handle the packaging myself and uploading for the sponsor. - looking for co-maintainers? do you need a sponsor?

Its so far only occurred for me on LSI RAID controllers (92xx), with dual quad core Xeon CPU's.
