RFC: synfig packaging (a 2D vector animation studio)
Hi all, I've packaged synfig[1] (a 2D vector animation studio), and found a sponsor for it. Since neither of us have much experience with shared libraries, I would like some comments on the packaging, particularly if the libraries are ok, the package split is ok and any problems you can find. You can find the source packages here: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/synfig/ http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/synfigstudio/ Oh, and by the way, if anyone wants to co-maintain this, you are welcome, particularly if you know about shared libraries. We will be creating an svn repository where we can collaborate on it. 1. http://www.synfig.com -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
Removing an ITP
Hello. Some time ago I filed an ITP[1] for the package kompile, and later on I asked for sponsor, but got no response. Since there is apparently no interest in that package (with mine decreasing too), I'd like to remove/close the ITP bug. How do I do this? Or it is not my responsability to do this? 1: http://bugs.debian.org/338092 -- Felipe Sateler pgpquSJJlTToc.pgp Description: PGP signature

RFS: plotdrop - A minimal GNOME frontend to GNUPlot
Hi! I am looking for somebody to sponsor a new package for me. I recently packaged it for Ubuntu and it was accepted into the universe repository. I have now made a Debian sid source package, built it with pbuilder, and installed it into a sid chroot to verify that it installs and works correctly.

I think it's considered a bug, although AFAIK Policy doesn't explicitly forbid rpath.

mozilla extension installation - is not seen on some boxes
Dear Gurus, I am a sponsored maintainer of mozilla-imagezoom package. I just upgraded it to the most recent upstream version so I could have it working with the recent firefox. I believe I had similar problem before but now I have it again: on some boxes (where I believe I used to have it installed in my local account) it doesn't appear in the list of extensions no matter what I do (including moving ~/.mozilla away to start with fresh local settings). But it works nicely on some other boxes... So what did I miss in my package? In the debian/rules I do dtmp = $(CURDIR)/debian/mozilla-imagezoom extdir = $(dtmp)/usr/share/mozilla-extensions/imagezoom uuid = 1A2D0EC4-75F5-4c91-89C4-3656F6E44B68 . install: . cp -rp chrome defaults $(extdir) install -m 644 debian/chrome.d debian/extensions.d install.rdf \ $(extdir) install -m 644 debian/Uninstall $(extdir)/uninstall and in debian/postinst I do if [ "$1" = configure ]; then for update in update-mozilla-chrome \ update-mozilla-snapshot-chrome \ update-mozilla-firefox-chrome \ update-mozilla-thunderbird-chrome; do if searchpath "$update"; then "$update" fi done fi Fresh version of the package will be duploaded by the sponsor as soon as he gets my email, but for now I have it available from my local repository if you are willing to have a look at it http://itanix.rutgers.edu/rumba/dists/unstable/perspect/binary-all/web/mozilla-imagezoom_0.2.2-1_all.deb Thank you in advance for the hints -- .-. =-- /v\ = Keep in touch// \\ (yoh@|www.)onerussian.com Yaroslav Halchenko /( )\ ICQ#: 60653192 Linux User^^-^^[17] pgpGkicnaoLUx.pgp Description: PGP signature

RFS: Kraptor and Kball
Kraptor and Kball are two games currently in debian repositories, Kraptor is a classic shoot 'em up scroller game, where you must fight against tons of bad dudes. The game offers high speed action, with massive destruction and lots of fun. Kraptor features a powerful engine for 2D shooter scroller games. Massive destruction, powerful weapons, all that you always wanted in this kind of games! http://kraptor.sourceforge.net/ KBall is a game of skill and reflexes, non violent, suitable for all ages. The idea is to move a ball around the map, without falling, without running out of time, and getting the prizes, in order to reach the exit. The map has different traps, such as slides, pushers, jumps, falls, walls, etc. Maps are viewed from top view, and the walls and player's ball are real-time rendered in beautiful 3D. http://kball.sourceforge.net/ New packages are temporarily available at http://baby.yi.org/packages/kronos/ .
