RFS: bandwidthd - bandwidth monitoring daemon
Hello! I've already mailed my regular sponsor (which usually is a busy person) without any response (yet). As I really want a newer version in before Etch releases I'm sending a request for sponsorship to this list. Package description available at: http://packages.debian.org/bandwidthd The latest version fixes all reported bugs, including RC bugs, and some more: http://bugs.debian.org/bandwidthd New package available at: http://www.fatal.se/pub/debian/bandwidthd-latest/ It's lintian and linda clean (with no overrides). Things to watch out for: Please make sure that I've correctly made the maintainer changes as I've switched email address since last debian upload. (old: [EMAIL PROTECTED], new: [EMAIL PROTECTED]) Please make sure that your build environment is clean so the -noxpm version of GD is pulled in to have more options for the binary dependencies.

Re: RFS: bandwidthd - bandwidth monitoring daemon
Please CC me to make it easier to reply as I'm not subscribed. Sorry, but it's not lintian clean: W: bandwidthd: init.d-script-missing-lsb-section Oh, sorry ... missed to check the binary package, only the source (*.dsc). Anyway, I have no useful information to provide in the LSB section. My daemon is pretty selfcontained. Seems pretty insane to not have a default instead of cluttering every init script with this header. I can make a new version providing a LSB section which basically would look the same as the example but with name and descriptions changed if anyone feels strongly for having one, otherwise I'll hold off on it and add it the next time I make a new version with other changes Please tell me if anybody consider this as a blocker for sponsoring.

Dear mentors,

of my package blacs-pvm.
Hi,
I cannot sponsor, but I have some comments for you.
* Should the package names be prefixed with lib?
Well, If you get lintian warnings about it so the package names should
be prefixed with lib. I know that I'm getting those warnings.But, What
about the dependencies? I'll research if dependencies problems happen
when the blacs' package names are changed. I think at least
scalapack's dependencies should break.
* blacs1-pvm.postinst is useless, as that will be added by
dh_makeshlibs
You are right. I made a test. I erased the file blacs1-pvm.postins and
dh_makeshlibs created this file like I read in the online manual [0]
So, Done :-)
* Please drop the use of ${Source-Version}, see
http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2006/09/msg00228.html
I read all the thread including [1] and [2]. I think the part of the
code that you mentioned above is into control file. I did tests and I
didn't have success when I changed Source by binary. I was reading the
code of one package that you maintain [libksba] and you use
${Source-Version} instead of ${source-Version} which is the correct
form :S Well, If we are talking about that variable into control file.
* The short descriptions are all lacking in my opinion
Basic Linear Algebra Comm. Subprograms - Dev. files for PVM
doesn't give much indication of what the package is for.
* The convention is to indent Homepage: by two spaces, see
I read the reference, and I could see that changelog file of blacs
does not have problems with:
6.2.4 Upstream home page
* It would be good if the license informtion could be included in the
package itself. At any rate I think it would help to make it clearer
what is going on the the debian/copyright file. You should state
that you enquired by email and got that response.
Also there is no copyright information in that file, there is only
license information wrongly labelled as copyright information. See
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2006/03/msg00023.html
* Why do you clean at the start of all your build targets? That is
what the clean target is for, and is messy.
I agree. I'm fixing it.
* Please add a watch file.
Done.
* There is an important linda warning
W: blacs1-pvm; The library libblacs is not in a shlibs file.
I'm working on it.
Thanks for your mail, I learned a lot :-)

RFS: python-musicbrainz2 (updated) libdiscid
Hi, I'm looking for a sponsor to the updated package python-musicbrainz2. The package is at: http://users.musicbrainz.org/~luks/tmp/deb-python-musicbrainz2-0.4.0-1/ Version 0.4.0 introduced a new dependency - libdiscid (it works without this library so it's in Recommends, not Depends), which is not in Debian yet. I've packaged also this library: http://users.musicbrainz.org/~luks/tmp/deb-libdiscid-0.1.0-1/ Roberto, have you finished your NM process yet? If yes, would you have some time to look at it? -Lukáš -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
