RFS: QtOctave -- A Qt front-end to Octave
(Note to octave-help list subscribers who may be interested: I attempted to stick to Debian policy after all, which is why I'm attempting to add this to Debian's repositories. The dotdeb works in Debian's current testing, and should be easily built for other distributions. Note that Qt4 is required to build and run the package.) Hello, Debian mentors. This is my first attempt to upload a Debian package and the first package I've ever built believing to be adhering to Debian policy. I don't even know what the exact etiqutte for RFSing or where all those people are getting the RFS template or how exactly I should upload things. The Debianised source tarball is found here: http://www.cimat.mx/~jordi/debian/qtoctave_0.5.1-1.debian.tar.gz The dotdeb I built in Lenny (but which *should* build in unstable unless libqt4-dev is more heavily patched than I think) is found here: http://www.cimat.mx/~jordi/debian/qtoctave_0.5.1-1_i386.deb It is mostly Lintian-clean, save for #428403 and a missing manpage for widgetserver whose purpose I have not yet discerned.

inactive maintenance
Hello, mentors I'm wondering if there is a practice to force package to be orphaned in a case of chronic lack of maintenance? Perhaps, for some package there was no maintainer activity for several years, but only NMU's, wich purpose was not to fix some critical bugs but just to update a very old software version. The situation is even worse: the maintainer is popping up from time to time and permitting to do a NMU with "so much changes in the package". In result, there is possible to upload to 'experimental' keeping all old technical garbage and crooks and not to improve the packaging quality. Should exist some way to fix that. -- Regards, Al Nikolov jid: [EMAIL PROTECTED] irc: clown uin: 312108671 pgp fingerprint: 4B50 F1E3 080C 21A2 91F4 8BF0 CD60 3B5A 2ECF 984B -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

RFS: fig2sxd (updated package)
Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 0.17-1 of my package "fig2sxd" which builds one binary package, fig2sxd. The purpose of the program is to convert XFig files into an OpenOffice.org drawing. The package is lintian clean. The upload would fix bug 471183 and adds output to stdout as new feature. The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/f/fig2sxd - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free - dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/f/fig2sxd/fig2sxd_0.17-1.dsc I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me. Kind regards Alexander Bürger
