Bug#1076037: ITP: mozjs128 -- SpiderMonkey JavaScript library
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-CC: debian-devel@lists.debian.org, debian-gtk-gn...@lists.debian.org Control: affects -1 src:mozjs128 Owner: jeremy.bi...@canonical.com Package Name: mozjs128 Version: 128.0.0 Upstream Author: Mozilla etc License: mostly MPL-2.0, other files are licensed under other open source licenses Programming Lang: C++ Description: SpiderMonkey JavaScript library SpiderMonkey is the code-name for Mozilla Firefox's C++ implementation of JavaScript. It is intended to be embedded in other applications that provide host environments for JavaScript. . This library is intended for use in contexts where only trusted JavaScript code will be run, such as GNOME's gjs, Cinnamon's cjs, and polkit's rules parsing. It should not be used to run untrusted JavaScript from web pages: use a security-supported implementation such as Firefox, Chrome or WebKitGTK's JavaScriptCore instead. Other Info -- mozjs is the JavaScript engine from Firefox ESR. Today, a new Firefox ESR series was released. It will be supported by Mozilla for about 14 months. It is likely but not yet certain that GNOME 47, specifically gjs 1.82, will switch from mozjs115 to mozjs128. If that happens, the next major release of Debian (Debian 13 "Trixie") will include mozjs128. The other user of mozjs* in Debian is Cinnamon, specifically their cjs fork of gjs. Based on previous history, it is expected that cjs will continue to use mozjs115 for Debian 13. mozjs102 will be removed from Debian Unstable once cjs 6.2 reaches Unstable which is expected to happen "soon".

Library: LGPL-2.1+ Programming Lang: C Description: metadata database, indexer and search tool TinySPARQL is an advanced framework for first class objects with associated metadata and tags. It provides a one stop solution for all metadata, tags, shared object databases, search tools and indexing. . TinySPARQL was previously known as Tracker. Other Info -- TinySPARL is a rename of the Tracker file indexer included by default in GNOME. The primary driver for this rename is that privacy-conscious curious users are disturbed by the persistent background process named tracker-miner-fs-3.

Concerned users can complain or may try to disable or remove these services and break core functionality of their desktop environment. The Debian GNOME team intends to package tinysparql (and the tracker-miners replacement named localsearch) in Experimental probably in July.

It can display and print DjVu, Portable Document Format (PDF) and XML Paper Specification (XPS) files. When supported by the document, it also allows searching for text, copying text to the clipboard, hypertext navigation, and table-of-contents bookmarks. Other Info -- Papers is a fork of Evince. Papers uses GTK4 and libadwaita (evince uses GTK3). The app now uses Rust for some features. Papers has been proposed to replace Evince as the default PDF viewer for GNOME 47. Evince is not just an app but also libraries for other apps to support PDF (etc.) viewing. Papers also provides those libraries but they have been renamed and use GTK4 now. Those other apps may not be ready for GTK4 yet so we will keep the Evince libraries available for Debian 13. It hasn't yet been finalized what formats the app will support beyond PDF. DVI support has been dropped upstream. Debian, like most distros, has continued to enable viewing PostScript files in Evince although the Evince developers have disabled that by default for years. This package will be maintained by the Debian GNOME team. Packaging will be at https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/papers The upstream source is at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/Incubator/papers Thanks, Jeremy Bícha

I suggest upgrading the storage first. If that's not possible, I recommend replacing the OS with a new image of Debian rather than trying to use apt to upgrade a few packages at a time. As has already been mentioned, it is not supported to arbitrarily break apt updates up like that to upgrade from say Debian 12 to the not-yet-released Debian 13. Thank you, Jeremy Bícha

I am still getting the LIntian autoreject for thawab for license-problem-md5sum-non-free. It is especially annoying that current Lintian does not emit this error or even a warning because it knows that thawab is in non-free. This is blocking me from being able to fix a RC bug in thawab unless I repack the tarball which seems like a lot of work for a package that is in non-free and a version that is **already in the archives**. I originally tried to fix this RC bug a year ago but my upload was auto-rejected then and I forgot to mark this issue for followup. It was an early enough upload that thawab could have landed in Debian 12. https://alioth-lists.debian.net/pipermail/debian-islamic-maintainers/2023-January/004920.html Thank you, Jeremy Bícha

Solanum is a GNOME Circle app so we could perhaps use gnome-solanum for the source and binary package names . I don't think it's necessary to rename /usr/bin/solanum though. Repology also notes the name conflict and suggests "solanum-pomodoro"; however, it looks like no other distro has adopted the name gnome-solanum or solanum-pomodoro.
