[josemd]

Package: general
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

I have a problem with mouse clic in Debian. I have this problem on 2 computer
different.
When I came in Debian, the clic doesn't work.
I have to do :
Ctrl+Alt+F6  AND NEXT Ctrl+Alt+F7 to resolve the problem.

My configuration : GTX770M + processor i7-4700HQ

The NVIDIA driver is installed and worked, and one day, the problem rise

Thank you for your help

Bug#851153: ITP: hiro -- time manipulation utilities for Python

[Nicolas Dandrimont]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Nicolas Dandrimont 

* Package name: hiro
  Version : 0.2
  Upstream Author : Ali-Akber Saifee
* URL : http://hiro.readthedocs.org/ / 
https://github.com/alisaifee/hiro
* License : MIT
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description : time manipulation utilities for Python

 The hiro module provides a context-manager which hijacks a few commonly used
 time function to manipulate time in its context. It allows you to rewind,
 forward, freeze, unfreeze, and scale time according to given settings.
 .
 Most notably, the builtin functions time.sleep, time.time, time.gmtime,
 datetime.now, datetime.utcnow and datetime.today behave according the
 configuration of the context.

hiro is a test dependency for python-limits, which itself is a dependency for
flask-limiter which I intend to package.

I will maintain those packages under the Debian Python Modules Team umbrella.

Bug#851177: RFP: cachet -- status page system

[Axel Beckert]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name: cachet
  Version : 2.3.10
  Upstream Author : Alt Three Services Ltd.
* URL or Web page : https://cachethq.io/
https://github.com/CachetHQ/Cachet
* License : BSD-3-Clause
  Description : status page system

Cachet is a PHP-written and responsive status page system which improves
downtime (support-wise and customer-wise). It is translated to over ten
languages and sports a JSON API as well as two-factor authentication
(using Google Authenticator).

A demo site is available at https://demo.cachethq.io/ and a production
site of another FLOSS project is at https://status.lineageos.org/.
(That's actually how I stumbled upon it.)

And I have been a very unhappy user with python-django. If by mistake, you
use "gbp import-orig" instead of "git-dpm import-new-upstream" then you're
completely screwed because git-dpm relies on metadata it manually stores
in debian/.git-dpm, it does not rely on git's history to figure out the
appropriate data. Same if you change any patch outside with a third party
tool...

So I have opened the manual page many times to read about the format of
that file and tried to fix up the inconsistent meta-data.

Also it's really painful to use with multiple branches as you can't really
merge branches together:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=801667

It produces a very verbose git history as soon as you have a significant
number of patches, even if most of them do not change at all across a
minor upstream release.

Also it's effectively orphaned, nobody is taking care of bugs.

I agree with your choice of using a separate page and I even agree with
your reasons.

I don't agree that you had to write the above sentence at the start of the
discussion. It did not bring anything to the discussion and I confirm what
Nikolaus said, I felt attacked for having promoted the new source format.

Bug#851197: ITP: dirgra -- Java library providing simple directed graph implementation

[Miguel Landaeta]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Miguel Landaeta 

* Package name: dirgra
  Version : 0.3
  Upstream Author : Thomas E Enebo 
* URL : https://github.com/jruby/dirgra
* License : EPL-1.0
  Programming Lang: Java
  Description : Java library providing simple directed graph implementation

 A directed graph (or digraph) is a graph (that is a set of vertices
 connected by edges), where the edges have a direction associated with
 them.
 .
 This library is currently used in JRuby implementation but it's perfectly
 reusable for any other project requiring this kind of data structures.

- Needed as a dependency for JRuby 9.x.
- It will be maintained in the Debian Java team.

... some progress, #849466 has been reported as an issue at Bitbucket, I've 
disabled/removed warnings for
the Python3 tests in DEP-8 and this vanishes (that could be restored if the 
issue is closed).

The other failure from DEP-8 (#846952 on Python 2.7) doesn't appear in a local 
DEP-8 autopkgtest [2]. This
tests gets skipped in a Python 2 enviroment, but deb/tests/control is all 
right. Strange. I've lowered the
severity (hardly RC).

#846951 is difficult to reproduce. It's from reproducible builds CI, but 
current it doesn't appear (nor any other
problem). I'm tending to lower this, too.

#840823 is confirmed, I have that in a clean new Debian testing on i386:

 
TestBasicGateway.test_gateway_status_busy[thread-popen] 

self = 
gw = 

def test_gateway_status_busy(self, gw):
numchannels = gw.remote_status().numchannels

ch1.receive()
status = gw.remote_status()

tail is not the same as tail -f, and /usr/bin/od (and /usr/bin/hexdump) 
end execution when they reach the end of a regular file, such that 
piping into tail (with or without -f) would be useless.

Feel free to write the patch. There is a 12% time improvement to gain 
with splice(2), at least there is here when testing on a 2GB file.

Auto reject if autopkgtest of reverse dependencies fail or cause FTBFS

[Pirate Praveen]

Hi,

Similar to piuparts auto rejects, I think we should add auto reject when
autopkgtest of a reverse dependency or build dependency fails (which was
not failing earlier) or cause FTBFS to reverse dependencies. This will
help us prevent library updates without proper transitions breaking
other packages. One recent example is update on python-html5lib which
broke python-bleach even though build was failing [1].

Thanks
