Re: Uploading Praat 3.5.35-1

2012-12-11 Thread Andreas Tille
Hi Rafael,

I take the freedom to answer on Debian Med list because your practice to
handle experimental branch sounds interesting.  BTW:  In general I would
prefer if you would contact me about praat always via list.  It works as
reliable as via private mail but other people in the team become
informed about an interesting package and interesting technical stuff -
so there is no point in hiding this.

Uploading to experimental in freeze time is handled in Debian Med team
the same way but we did not used a different branch.  I'd consider this
interesting however, you might blame my Git beginner status responsible
for not understanding how you upgrade from experimental to unstable once
stable is released.  Will you merge the experimental branch with master
then or will you simply move on in master branch (targeting at unstable)
by ignoring the changelog entries done meanwhile in experimental.  I
would not like the latter because this would be a loss of information
for non-Git users just looking at the package changelog.

I rather used

   git-buildpackage --git-debian-branch=experimental

and I guess this is what you intended to write, right?

Done and uploaded.
As far as I understood you have some contact to upstream.  I wonder
whether they might like to include the two quilt patches.

No, if I understood release team announcements correctly this would be a
bad idea.

Ahhh, you notice I have the habit of not reading mails until end but
rather start answering. :-)  I guess I did answer this question in the
beginning.  Please make sure to remind me (or others) about the fact
that you are not subscribed to make sure we will not forget to CC you.

Thanks for preparing the praat package

  Andreas.

Fine I've just added you to the Debian Med team.

OK.

I'd prefer if you would try to follow

   http://debian-med.alioth.debian.org/docs/policy.html

to create the Git repository yourself and once you did so I would have a
look.  For sure I could do this as well but I'd regard this as a
reasonable exercise for you to become comfortable with the Debian Med
team work.  For sure you will get all our support if something might not
work as smooth as expected.  For the very beginning to test you ssh
login make sure you read the "ssh tips" paragraph specifically the link
to the Debian wiki in the end of the paragraph.

Just let us know in case of any trouble.

Kind regards

   Andreas.

Hi Andreas,
I've now created the account eriksjolund-guest at alioth.debian.org

I would prefer to use git for the repository.
If I understand you correctly, the next step will be that you now
upload the debian packaging sub directory from prime-phylo into the
Vcs? If you have any suggestions regarding the packaging you are most
welcome to perform changes in the packaging code.

cheers,
Erik

Yes. It contains the latex files used to build the pdf file.

I chose this one. It's simpler :)

This is complicated. We are eager to release a new version very soon.
I don't know if we'll have time to translate to English before the
release.

Thanks again Andreas.
