Thanks, interesting. What I'd like to see is us updating *our* spec to have the equivalence the other way around and I can extract upstream provided SPDX licence identifiers while staying debian-machine-readable-copyright compliant. -- Aurélien

Hi Fabio, Le samedi 7 septembre 2024, 21:43:35 CEST Fabio Fantoni a écrit : > So I wonder, is it possible to put in d/copyright DEP5 the short license > names using the spdx ones? we’ve been doing that for KDE packages since upstream started tagging all source files with SPDX-License / SPDX-Copyright headers and so using SPDX license identifiers some years ago. See [1] for example. While not strictly adhering to DEP-5 I consider it useful to have a machine-readable-with-SPDX-identifiers and I’m not sure how useful it is to try and translate upstream-provided SPDX identifiers into something else. Our spec [2] already defines an equivalence rule between License-X and License-X.0 declarations for SPDX compatibility. For what I’ve seen on the quite vast and diverse KDE source corpus we’d only need 2 additional equivalence rules to be added to matches what that upstream ships : - equivalence between the + and -or-later suffixes (GPL-2+ / GPL-2.0-or-later) - equivalence between MIT and Expat.

In the Qt/KDE Team (~600-700 source packages) we’ve taken the complete opposite approach. We keep debian/ only repos in salsa and don’t put the upstream source in git anywhere, only in the uploads to the archive. Updating a package to a new upstream version is then as simple as a new changelog entry, and uscan / dpkg-builpackage / sbuild handle the rest for us. I personally think it’s crazy / not a good use of my time to try and mix both upstream and packaging history in the same repo and try to make git dance around that when handling new upstream releases. The extents of the ongoing d-devel discussions on the topic tend to reinforce that feeling. Keeping debian and upstream changes separate is a nice feature. I’d even qualify the debian-only workflow as essential for packages with large source trees like Qt WebEngine that embeds Chromium. The source-included workflows add orders of magnitude of overhead in this kind of situation. (For some value of $fun, try cloning the mesa or Firefox repos from a sloppy Internet connection for a packaging analysis or an occasional contribution.) Happy hacking, -- Aurélien

Bumping epoch and reusing package name "elisa"
Dear fellow developers, I’m working on packaging Elisa, a modern and simple music player based on the KDE Frameworks stack. [0][1] I initially named the package elisa, but such a package already existed in the archive in the past. Former Elisa [2] was a media center and must have been in the archive as "elisa" before wheezy. It was then renamed to Moovida upstream and packaged as "moovida" for wheezy with "elisa" staying as a transitional dummy package. The moovida and elisa packages were last uploaded in July 2010 and then removed from the archive after wheezy. FTP masters rejected the upload of the new elisa 0.2.1-1 as the package has a lower version than the former Elisa project and they proposed bumping the epoch and reusing the name. It seems reasonable to me as it leaves us with 2 elisa-less Debian releases. Alternatives I can see would be to use different names like elisa-player or elisa-music-player but I find it cumbersome and it’s not my preferred option. Since policy §5.6.12 now recommends getting consensus on -devel before bumping epochs, I’m doing that here.
