RFS: cflow (updated package)

2009-08-02 Thread Jakub Wilk 

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 1:1.3-1
of my package cflow.

It builds these binary packages:
cflow  - Analyze control flow in C source files

The package appears to be lintian (-I -E --pedantic) clean.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/cflow
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main 
contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/cflow/cflow_1.3-1.dsc

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

 Bonjour Torsten,

 the keyword that would have given you the answer is ’compress’
 instead of ’zip’.

 aqwa『~』$ html2text /usr/share/doc/cdbs/cdbs-doc.html | grep -i compress
 * dh_compress
 To avoid compressing files with a .py extension:
 DEB_COMPRESS_EXCLUDE = .py
 The following files are excluded from compression:
 automatically. The system can handle compressed patches with an additionnal 
 .gz


 [...]

 Maybe you can try to use DEB_COMPRESS_EXCLUDE to avoid compression
 of PNGs.

Yes, it worked.  Thank you!

 By the way, is /usr/share/info the best place for your images ?

Certainly not.  But I'm afraid this is a current limitation of info.

Tschö,
Torsten.

Right, must have regressed it in the VCS somehow. It's fixed and on
mentors again. However, there are licensing problems that Florian Weimer
has pointed out that I missed, which I will contact upstream about. In
the meantime uploading to new would be a waste of ftpmasters time; may I
ping you later when it's resolved?

Thanks,

RFS: magicfilter (updated package)

2009-08-02 Thread Rogério Brito 
Dear mentors,

I have adopted the magicfilter package some time ago and I am now fixing
some quite long-standing bugs (you can see for yourself in the list
below).  I am, therefore, looking for a sponsor for the new version
1.2-62 of my package magicfilter.

Please, keep in mind that, as this package will soon be upgraded to a
new upstream version, I have left the build system that the original
maintainer created.

The new versions of the package will use a brand new build system based
on debhelper.

Well, these are the contents of the .changes file:

The package appears to be mostly lintian clean (with the latest lintian
from unstable).

The upload would fix these bugs: 33666, 101010, 250715, 294485, 295293
(as seen above).

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:

contrib non-free

Did something change about the magicfilter package in this new release
that fixes these two bugs?  If not, they don't belong in debian/changelog.

debian/changelog is for documenting *changes* to the package.  It is not a
general bug-closing service.  Bugs that you're closing without changes to
the package should instead be closed by mailing nnn-d...@bugs.debian.org.

Re: RFS: cflow (updated package)

2009-08-02 Thread George Danchev 
 Dear mentors,

Hi,

 I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 1:1.3-1
 of my package cflow.

 It builds these binary packages:
 cflow  - Analyze control flow in C source files

 The package appears to be lintian (-I -E --pedantic) clean.

 The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
 - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/cflow
 - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main
 contrib non-free - dget
 http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/cflow/cflow_1.3-1.dsc

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

Just one comment: lintian 2.2.13 (from sid) reports:

$ lintian -i --pedantic *.changes
E: cflow: package-contains-info-dir-file usr/share/info/dir.gz
N:
N:This package contains a file named dir or dir.old, possibly compressed,
N:in /usr/share/info. This is the directory (or backup) of info pages and
N:is generated automatically by install-info when a package containing
N:info documentation is installed. Some upstream build systems create it
N:automatically, but it must not be included in a package since it needs
N:to be generated dynamically based on the installed info files on the
N:system.
N:
N:Severity: important, Certainty: certain
N:

and in fact it is correct:

$ dpkg --contents cflow_1.3-1_i386.deb | grep info
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2009-08-03 03:03 ./usr/share/info/
-rw-r--r-- root/root   448 2009-08-03 03:02 ./usr/share/info/dir.gz
-rw-r--r-- root/root 24212 2009-08-03 03:03 ./usr/share/info/cflow.info.gz

cflow 1:1.2-3 (from sid) does not distribute /usr/share/info/dir.gz, so it 
seems that something has changed to the upstream build system, without being 
documented in their last ChangeLog entry... diff to the rescue?

Fix that and I would sponsor. Thanks!
