 the patches need to be -p1, not -p0. that's all :)

well that did what it should did. Another problem:

You mentioned that it does not make much sense to use a patch system and
modifying checkin.php directly. Normally, i agree, but then i will have
to add a lintian override to my package, because to remove the change
and instead add it as a patch does lead into an lintian E on the .changes.

E: mantis: wrong-path-for-interpreter #!/usr/local/bin/php !=
/usr/bin/php (./usr/share/mantis/www/core/checkin.php)

What should i do, to do it right? Use a lintian override for now and
inform the lintian developers about it? Because i think it can be
considered as a lintian bug which occurs when using dpatch (or similar
systems).

So far i'm ready with my changes. I just saw a few things here and there
and will recheck if I've incorporated all the changes you've requested.

my point is: when using a patch managment system, which is good, then
use it for everything.

why can't you do a dpatch for the changes needed on that file too?

Forget everything i said. It was my mistake and were caused because of a
bogus patch which did apply but not correct :o) Now it is a dpatch and
its working and no warnings appear.

The problem is solved now in my code.
I still consider it as a bug-workaround rather than a fix.

It should IMHO be fixed in GPC.
I've already written a mail to the GPC's mailing list about it.

What my package is concerned: I still try to make some changes before I 
ask for a sponsor.

* (re)added a debian/po directory and template files for translators

 Good to see that Mantis is getting a new maintainer. 

:-)

 Please note that there have been numerous security issues with Mantis in the 
 recent past.

Yes i know that mantis has a bad security history. Anyway i prefer to
stay on mantis instead of the alternatives in our company and also i
prefer to use packages instead of manual installations. Therefore i am
heavy motivated to care for this package.

 So you must be willing to dilligently backport any issues that may arise
 to the stable release. It's not that hard, but there have been problems
 with this in the past. Please be prepared :)

When i decided to adopt the package, i knew that it would need some
work. I already had to invest a *lot of* work in this package, because i
 had to redo a lot of things which were done half or broken in the
earlier versions. Also some things changed at upstream, which changes
the way i have to handle things. Okay, but long speak, short sin: I know
there may be much work with the package and i am willing to do it. IMO
that totally makes sense, as i would like to apply for NM in the future.

How to unpack upstream tarball in a dpatch-using package?

2006-11-29 Thread Marc Haber
Be given a source package with the following layout:

foo/
foo/debian
foo/debian/rules
foo/debian/patches
foo/debian/patches/00list
foo/debian/patches/01bar
foo/upstream/package.tar.bz2

So I want the package build process to unpack
foo/upstream/packag.tar.bz2 before trying to apply the patches with
dpatch.

Is it better to do some makefile magic for this unpacking (as having
an unpack-stamp which patch depends on, or would one better have a
foo/debian/patches/00unpack dpatch snippet doing the unpacking?

Greetings
Marc

You need to clean up the orig tarball (written somewhere in the policy).
And then the copyright question is solved as well.

as we are also distributing the source, not just the binaries, you have to:

  * either write a complete debian/copyright file covering all code
shipped within the sources.

  * or, rebuild the upstream tarball and remove the things not needed.
note that i'm strongly advocating not to do that, unless you save
several megabytes on the tarball size witht hat.

note, that you will also have to document the changes you made in
debian/copyright, and, should add a '+debian' tag the upstream
version to reflect the changed upstream tarball.

This will allow you to move to another patch system if such need arises.

No, you don't! You *only* modify the source tarball to remove things
that are not free.

The software is free but you don't install it into the deb. That's fine,
but still notice it in debian/copyright: that file covers all licences,
whether stuff is installed into the deb or not, since we are
distributing the source tarball. It would make sense though to make it
explicit that this only applies to the source package.

RFS: recordmydesktop

2006-11-29 Thread L. Redrejo
Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package recordmydesktop.

* Package name: recordmydesktop
  Version : 0.3.0r2-1
  Upstream Author : John Varouhakis [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* URL : http://recordmydesktop.sourceforge.net
* License : GPL
  Section : graphics

It builds these binary packages:
recordmydesktop - Captures audio-video data of a linux desktop session

The package is lintian clean.

The upload would fix this bug: 381154

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/r/recordmydesktop
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main 
contrib non-free
- dget 
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/r/recordmydesktop/recordmydesktop_0.3.0r2-1.dsc

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.

Kind regards

This should really be an answer to the ITP, but I am posting here for
expediancy reasons.

You state in the ITP that this tool is a frontend to recordMyDesktop. Is
that packaged separately or within this package? I presume it is already
in the archive if it is separate, but I haven't looked, which I
apologise for. 

My question is, if it is packaged separately why is this package named
recordmydesktop, rather than recordmydesktop-gui or similar?

If it is included why do you just talk about a frontend in the
description, and not about the tool itself?

Thanks,

James

 This should really be an answer to the ITP, but I am posting here for
 expediancy reasons.
 
I guess you're refering to the ITP I've just filled for
gtk-recordmydesktop, as that's the frontend for recordMyDesktop

 You state in the ITP that this tool is a frontend to recordMyDesktop. Is
 that packaged separately or within this package? I presume it is already
 in the archive if it is separate, but I haven't looked, which I
 apologise for. 
 

 My question is, if it is packaged separately why is this package named
 recordmydesktop, rather than recordmydesktop-gui or similar?

It's packaged separately and I've just kept the names the upstream
author is using with his work. Maybe you're right, and
recordmydesktop-gui would be more accurate, but he decided the names.
The author first begun to work on recordmyDesktop and, some months
later, he decided to do a GUI and called it gtk-recordMyDesktop.

 
 If it is included why do you just talk about a frontend in the
 description, and not about the tool itself?
 
 Thanks,
 
 James

Thanks very much.

In fact, I haven't understood totally the confusion. I supposse it was
due to the fact the ITP I've filled for the frontend
(gtk-recordMyDesktop) was sent to debian-devel almost at the same time
that my message to mentors for the backend (recordMyDesktop).

Yes, I've just filled the ITP in Debian for it. In fact, I've done it
some time ago, but I'm still testing it before uploading it to mentors.

contact me off-list if you want sponsoring for that, and, also for other
updates when needed for the previous package.

RFS: uebimiau

2006-11-29 Thread Muammar Wadih El Khatib Rodriguez

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package uebimiau.

* Package name: uebimiau
 Version : 2.7.10-1
 Upstream Author : Aldoir Ventura
* URL : http://www.uebimiau.org/
* License : GPL
 Section : web

It builds these binary packages:
uebimiau   - This is an universal webmail developed in PHP

The package is lintian clean.

The upload would fix these bugs: 395277

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/u/uebimiau
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
main contrib non-free
- dget 
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/u/uebimiau/uebimiau_2.7.10-1.dsc

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me, and also if
someone checks it and make suggestions. It's my first ITP.

Regards and thanks for reading,

 The executable-not-elf-or-script I guess will continue. Jar, war,

 I don't know about whether jar files should be executable, but if
 they shouldn't you should chmod -x them in your build process,
 after they get installed.

 Jar files are simply zip files with a manifest. The last I checked the
 exec syscall had no special handling for zip files, and as they lack a
 bang path, they relly are not executable as far as the system is
 concerned. So unless a JVM expects jars to have the executable bit
 set, it probably should not be.

It is possible to support execution of jar files using the binfmt_misc
mechanism.  The only question is whether or not that's something that we
do in Debian, which should probably be in the Debian Java policy
somewhere.  As I don't maintain any Java-related packages, though, I
don't know what the Java policy says, so I don't know if jar files are
allowed to be executable (although I suspect that they shouldn't be).

Ah, I have just looked again and you did file that ITP, but you had

  * Package name : recordmydesktop 

Apologies for the confusion.
