It is: - 128-bit compatible with UUID - 1.21e+24 unique ULIDs per millisecond - Lexicographically sortable! - Canonically encoded as a 26 character string, as opposed to the 36 character UUID - Uses Crockford's base32 for better efficiency and readability (5 bits per character) - Case insensitive - No special characters (URL safe) This is a dependency for the llm package (#1065572). We have another ULID implementation in Debian (golang-github-oklog-ulid-dev) but it's not sufficient for the LLM package, which expects the Python library. This is going to be packaged in the Python team.
Bug#1065572: ITP: llm -- Access large language models from the command-line
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Antoine Beaupre X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-devel@lists.debian.org, debian-pyt...@lists.debian.org, debian...@lists.debian.org * Package name: llm Version : 0.13.1 Upstream Contact: Simon Willison * URL : https://llm.datasette.io/ * License : Apache-2.0 Programming Lang: Python Description : CLI utility and Python library for interacting with Large Language Models A CLI utility and Python library for interacting with Large Language Models, both via remote APIs and models that can be installed and run on your own machine. Run prompts from the command-line, store the results in SQLite, generate embeddings and more. So there has been some discussions about packaging LLM things in Debian, and this is my stab at opening a discussion about *what* exactly, we *can* package, right now. LLM is a (possibly poorly named) package that allows users to interact with various language models. Its primary target is obviously the OpenAI API (it's the example in the "Quick Start"), but it also supports local models like Llama 2, Ollama, and MLC, and other online models like Claude, GEmini and Mistral. I *think* this belongs in contrib, because it *mostly* relies on non-free software (and services) to do its thing, but I'd be happy to move that around. I need this because I was using GPT plus for a while and now I'm switching to the API to cut down on costs.
Bug#1063912: ITP: pass-extension-update -- pass extension that provides an easy flow for updating passwords
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Antoine Beaupre X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-devel@lists.debian.org * Package name: pass-extension-update Version : 2.1 Upstream Contact: Alex roddhjav * URL : https://github.com/roddhjav/pass-update * License : GPL-3 Programming Lang: Shell Description : pass extension that provides an easy flow for updating passwords pass update extends the pass utility with an update command providing an easy flow for updating passwords. It supports path, directory and wildcard update. Moreover, you can select how to update your passwords by automatically generating new passwords or manually setting your own. pass update assumes that the first line of the password file is the password and so only ever updates the first line unless the --multiline option is specified. By default, pass update prints the old password and waits for the user before generating a new one. This behaviour can be changed using the provided options. I need something like this for work so I'll take a look at how reasonable this is. There's already a Debian package in the upstream source too.$

It also doesn't have as many features as the above, the one I am most interested in is HTTPS.
Bug#1021396: ITP: batterylog -- laptop battery logging tool
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Antoine Beaupre X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-devel@lists.debian.org * Package name: batterylog Version : none Upstream Author : Leonard Lin * URL : https://github.com/lhl/batterylog * License : GPLv3 Programming Lang: Python Description : laptop battery logging tool A simple Python app with few dependencies that reads your sysfs-class-power numbers and records them to a local sqlite3 db with an "event" tag. It was built to track suspend power usage for Framework laptops, but is flexible/easily extensible to do all kinds of other stuff. This is similar to the already packaged battery-stats, but is a little more explicit in its output. While battery-stats keeps a text and CSV log, batterylog stores its entries in a SQLite database. battery-stats stores new entries every minute, in cron, while batterylog does it on systemd triggers (like sleep/resume). It could, in theory, do exactly the same as battery-stats and run in a cron job, but those are triggers installed by default upstream. They both keep different records in each entry. battery-stats keep the charge status (charging/discharging), manufacturer, battery type and identifier, while batterylog keeps voltages. both ship similarly-named binaries, battery-stats ships battery-log, and batterylog ships... batterylog. batterylog is a single script, ~130 lines of python, quite readable, while battery-stats is a mix of shell and python, spread over multiple files. batterlog was started a few months ago, and is the work of a single maintainer. batterystats has been around since 2013 and has seen half a dozen contributors (including myself). batterystats can generate graphs, and, really, all batterylog currently does is this: $ /opt/batterylog/batterylog Slept for 8.72 hours Used 6.10 Wh, an average rate of 0.70 W For your 53.67 Wh battery this is 1.30%/hr or 31.29%/day But it's surprisingly useful in trying to tune battery life, especially during suspend.
Bug#1018890: ITP: pubpaste -- publish files and clipboard online easily

It's somewhat messy but it does its job well. pubpaste is not for novice users: it assumes you have access to an SSH server and know how to configure a YAML file. It has been written by and for its author in a fit of egoistical mania (unfortunately typical for hackers), apologies normal humans out there reading this.
Bug#1017804: ITP: pw -- interactively filtered pipe watcher
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Antoine Beaupre X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-devel@lists.debian.org * Package name: pw Version : 2 Upstream Author : Kaz Kylheku * URL : https://www.kylheku.com/cgit/pw/ * License : BSD-2 Programming Lang: C Description : interactively filtered pipe watcher pw can monitor anything that produces textual output. tail -f /var/logfile, tcpdump, strace, ... pw does not show you everything. Of course, it reads all the data, but it does that in the background. It continuously pumps lines of input through a small FIFO buffer. This buffer is sampled, and the sample is displayed. When that sampling occurs is controlled in various interactive ways. What goes into the FIFO can be filtered and the filters can be edited interactively. With pw you can: * Interactively apply and remove filters on-the-fly, without interrupting the source. * Make recurring patterns in the stream appear to "freeze" on the screen, using triggers. * Prevent the overwhelming amount of output from a program from flooding the terminal, while consuming all of that output so that the program isn't blocked. pw can pause its display updates entirely. * Juggle multiple shell background jobs that produce output, yet execute indefinitely without blocking. When pw runs as part of a shell background job, it continues to consume input, process filters and take snapshots, without displaying anything. When put into the foreground again, display resumes. For instance the command "tcpdump -i -l | pw" turns tcpdump into an interactive network monitoring tool in which you can use the dynamic filtering in pw to select different kinds of packets, and use the trigger feature to capture certain patterns of interaction. pw is like an oscilloscope for text streams. Digital oscilloscopes sample the signal and pass it through a fifo, which is sampled to the oscilloscope screen, and can trigger the sampling on certain conditions in the signal to make waveforms appear to stand still. pw does something like that for text streams. I am rather intrigued by this program. It's the sort of "swiss army knife" kind of tool that kind of makes no sense until you find a purpose for it. I've been trying to figure out where this tool fits in my toolbox and, just today, I was trying to find out what this silly Purism Librem firmware upgrade tool was doing in the background, with `ps axfu`. But I was having all this garbage out there, and it was hard to filter things out properly. I might have been able to pull something out with `watch`, but I think pw might have been better for this particular case. I'm also quite interested in using it to analyse logs or packet dumps during attacks or outages. Another similarly named package, already in Debian (and maintained by yours truly) is `pv`, the "pipe viewer". But it has a completely different function; whereas pw shows you the content of the pipe in a specific way, pv just counts lines or bytes going through it, specifically without showing you its content. There is another tool similar to "watch" that overlaps with this a little bit: https://github.com/sachaos/viddy ... it's basically the "watch" command with history. It supports searching (which pw does, and probably better) and going back in history (which pw does not). I had a hard time finding that package name again, for what that's worth... I suspect I could also forget the name `pw` quite quickly, but by packaging it, I guess I'm more confident I will forget it less. :p Probably the worst reason to package something ever, but there you go, that's how I ended up maintaining pv in the first place, so probably that means.. uh... something good something.
Bug#1008768: ITP: pytest-relaxed -- provide relaxed test discovery for pytest
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Antoine Beaupre X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-devel@lists.debian.org, debian-pyt...@lists.debian.org * Package name: pytest-relaxed Version : 1.1.5 Upstream Author : bitprophet * URL : https://github.com/bitprophet/pytest-relaxed/ * License : BSD-2 Programming Lang: Python Description : provide relaxed test discovery for pytest This is the spiritual successor to https://pypi.python.org/pypi/spec, but is built for pytest instead of nosetests, and rethinks some aspects of the design (such as increased ability to opt-in to various behaviors.) Has it ever felt strange to you that we put our tests in tests/, then name the files test_foo.py, name the test classes TestFoo, and finally name the test methods test_foo_bar? Especially when almost all of the code inside of tests/ is, well, tests? This pytest plugin takes a page from the rest of Python, where you don't have to explicitly note public module/class members, but only need to hint as to which ones are private. By default, all files and objects pytest is told to scan will be considered tests; to mark something as not-a-test, simply prefix it with an underscore. This is a dependency of the python-invoke test suite. Binary package would, of course, probably be python3-pytest-relaxed.
Bug#927898: ITP: rsendmail -- safer sendmail command to send email without passwords, over SSH
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Antoine Beaupre * Package name: rsendmail Version : 1.0.1 Upstream Author : Antoine Beaupré * URL : https://gitlab.com/anarcat/rsendmail/ * License : AGPLv3 Programming Lang: Python Description : safer sendmail command to send email without passwords, over SSH This command aims at replacing the builtin sendmail command which gives too much privileges to the caller. For example, Postfix's sendmail(1) command can list the mail queue (-bp), rehash the alias database (-bi), start a daemon (-bl, -bd), or flush the queue (-q); all remnants of the old Sendmail binary, which probably is turing-complete on its own. It's a mess. All I want to do is to easily queue up mails on a remote system without giving any extra privileges to the remote system. In turns, this makes configuring a satellite system like a laptop or a workstaiton as simple as adding an SSH key to be added to an authorized_keys file. That key can then send email, but only send email: no shell access or server management. This can of course be accomplished by a regular SMTP client, but that requires passwords, and passwords are weak. So I built the above already. I didn't think of packaging it for Debian until someone said "oh i'm not going to use this because it's not in Debian", so here we are. This is what I like to describe as "modern UUCP", more or less. Instead of relying on SMTP for transport, I rely on SSH, which brings a bunch of interesting properties. I am not aware of anything like that currently in the archive. I would be happy to co-maintain it with the relevant Python team but maybe it's better if I just maintain my own stuff too. :)
Bug#924040: ITP: archivebox -- open source self-hosted web archive
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Antoine Beaupre * Package name: archivebox Version : 0.2.4 Upstream Author : Nick Sweeting * URL : https://archivebox.io/ * License : MIT/Expat? Programming Lang: Python Description : open source self-hosted web archive ArchiveBox takes a list of website URLs you want to archive, and creates a local, static, browsable HTML clone of the content from those websites (it saves HTML, JS, media files, PDFs, images and more). You can use it to preserve access to websites you care about by storing them locally offline. ArchiveBox works by rendering the pages in a headless browser, then saving all the requests and fully loaded pages in multiple redundant common formats (HTML, PDF, PNG, WARC) that will last long after the original content dissapears off the internet. It also automatically extracts assets like git repositories, audio, video, subtitles, images, and PDFs into separate files using youtube-dl, pywb, and wget. ArchiveBox doesn’t require a constantly running server or backend, instead you just run the ./archive command each time you want to import new links and update the static output. It can import and export JSON (among other formats), so it’s easy to script or hook up to other APIs. If you run it on a schedule and import from browser history or bookmarks regularly, you can sleep soundly knowing that the slice of the internet you care about will be automatically preserved in multiple, durable long-term formats that will be accessible for decades (or longer). I'm not using this just yet because the upstream packaging is somewhat weird right now. https://github.com/pirate/ArchiveBox/issues/120#issuecomment-471027516 It's eventually going to end up on pypi, at which point i'll look at packaging this myself. There are, as far as I know, no similar tool in Debian right now. There are web crawlers and grabbers, but nothing as comprehensive as this. I'd be happy to co-maintain this or delegate to whoever is interested.

Message are stored to enable non-simultaneous clients to make forward progress. The server uses a small SQLite database for persistence (and clients will reconnect automatically, allowing the server to be rebooted without losing state). An optional "usage DB" tracks historical activity for status monitoring and operational maintenance. == This is necessary for magic-wormhole 0.11.2 tests to pass as they include code from this package, which is now split out in a different upstream repository. It can also be useful for people who want to run their own custom wormhole-based system without using any of the global wormhole architecture.

It is derived from Lightproof, which was written for hungarian. Grammalecte helps writing in french without bothering users with false alarms. This checker therefore follows the principle of least "false positives"; if it's impossible to determine with a strong probability that a string is erroneous, the checker won't signal anything. Grammalecte is the first checker I have found that does extensive grammar checks for french while at the same time being a) actively developped and b) free software. I am not using it yet, being mostly restricted to english in most of my public writing, but I hope to go back to french more, in which case I will test it extensively and may end up packaging it myself. It's an unofficial fork of "Lightproof", which seems mostly inactive, but was written by FSF.hu for Hungarian and has LibreOffice extensions as well: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/lightproof/ It's unclear if they plan to merge back together.
