Bug#1011557: ITP: pagmo -- library for massively parallel optimisation

2022-05-24 Thread Pierre Gruet
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

User: debian-scie...@lists.debian.org

* Package name: pagmo
  Version : 2.18.0
  Upstream Author : Francesco Biscani 
* URL : https://github.com/esa2/pagmo
* License : GPL-3+ or LGPL-3+
  Programming Lang: C++
  Description : library for massively parallel optimisation

pagmo is a C++ scientific library built around the idea of providing an
unified interface to optimization algorithms and to optimization
problems and to make their deployment in massively parallel environments easy.

This package is needed as a dependency of openturns, which is maintained in the
Debian science team -- which I also plan to do with pagmo.



Bug#1011552: ITP: python-exceptiongroup -- backport of the BaseExceptionGroup and ExceptionGroup classes from Python 3.11

2022-05-24 Thread Agathe Porte
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Agathe Porte 
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-devel@lists.debian.org, debian-pyt...@lists.debian.org, 
deb...@microjoe.org

* Package name: python-exceptiongroup
  Version : 1.0.0~rc7
  Upstream Author : Alex Grönholm 
* URL : https://github.com/agronholm/exceptiongroup
* License : MIT + PSFLv2
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description : backport of the BaseExceptionGroup and ExceptionGroup 
classes from Python 3.11

This library contains backport of BaseException for Python versions
before 3.11. Since 3.11 is not released yet and that new software [1] is
already using this compat layer, I think we should package it even in
release-candidate form.

[1] It is required for python-cattrs source package update.

I intent to maintain this package under the umbrella of the Debian
Python Team.

68866 entries. There must be something wrong.

Looking at the bug report of the package itself, and it does not
look like glibc package is made broken by it.

Any idea?

Great, that's really good to hear. I'm going to make a NMU and MR this
very morning to solve this.

Thanks for doing the right thing!

Yeah, it seems like the upstream is inactive somehow.
