Bug#351511: irssi-scripts: missing bitlbee plugins

[Tijmen Ruizendaal]

Hello,

Back in the old days, one of my Irssi-BitlBee scripts
(bitlbee-tab-completion.pl) was in the utils/ dir of the stable
releases on bitlbee.org. Then, when I made more scripts and more
frequently updates, Wilmer (the main developer of BitlBee), decided to
remove it from the utils dir. He added a link to my site in the
package, so people could download the scripts themselves. Therefore,
adding the scripts to the BitlBee package might be a wrong idea.

I still think Irssi should make their script repo more accessible.
Then I can add my scripts there. I hear more complains about the
script repo. looks like no-one is able to post updates or new scripts
to the list.

Btw, I added Wilmer to this bug.

Tijmen

Hi,

did anyone consider asking for those to be added to the bitlbee
package? There's no rule against multiple packages installing stuff
into /usr/share/irssi/scripts/. (Though admittedly that would require
installing bitlbee on the irssi machine if bitlbee does not run on
localhost.)

Bug#351511: irssi-scripts: missing bitlbee plugins

[Tijmen Ruizendaal]

Hello,I'm the developer of those Irssi scripts. When I tried to send an updated version of a script to the maintainer of http://irssi.org/scripts it never came online. Therefore I decided to host them myself. Because BitlBee did some changes lately, the scripts did change too. I guess it would annoy the Irssi dudes with my updates every week too.
Anyway, here are some download stats:bitlbee_typing_notice.pl (130 downloads a month)bitlbee_tab_completion.pl (100 downloads a month)bitlbee_blist.pl (90 downloads a month)auto_away.pl (80 downloads a month)
bitlbee_join_notice.pl (80 downloads a month)bitlbee_nick_change.pl (60 downloads a month)I think my auto_away.pl has some better features in addition to the ones in the irssi-script package. But I don't think it's up to me to decide that :-D

Hello Norbert,

thanks for your hint.

Just as indicated in a similar bugreport[0] as well as in
README.Debian I hesitate to add scripts from various separate sources
to the package. Of course, a lot of usefull add-ons are not present at
the moment, but as of now I refrain from crawling the web to get them
all together.

Well, I don't use bitlbee myself, so I can't say how useful those
particular scripts may be, but perhaps they could simply be added to
my "upstream" listing at . Once this
is done they will be automatically included in my next new "upstream"
release of the irssi-scripts package.


Cheers,
Flo

Package: irssi-scripts
Version: 20050609
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

two useful plugins for bitlbee from
http://the-timing.nl/stuff/irssi-bitlbee are not integrated in the
irssi-scripts plugin, namely Bitlbee_join_notice.pl and
Bitlbee_nick_change.pl.

Please add those scripts to the next version of the package.

Thanks, Norbert
