Re: Modification of configuration files in postinst

Hi Roland,

 Is there any way to mark a configuration file as unchanged after package
 installation? Any other solutions?

You could deploy an unmodified configfile containing the default password (and 
only modify it if a password is supplied via debconf) or you could just not 
deploy a configfile if no password was set via debconf.


cheers,
Holger

RFS: debsigs (packaging updates, DMUA candidate)

2010-06-02 Thread Peter Pentchev
Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 0.1.16
of my package debsigs.  This is a packaging update to
bring it to the latest-and-greatest standards available :)
See below for the full changelog entry.

Also, I'd be grateful if a kind mentor would set
the DM-Upload-Allowed flag before uploading :)

It builds a single binary package:
debsigs- toolset for applying cryptographic signatures to Debian packages

The package has been tested with lintian and pbuilder.

It can be found on mentors.debian.net:
dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/d/debsigs/debsigs_0.1.16.dsc

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

JFYI, here's the changelog entry:

debsigs (0.1.16) unstable; urgency=low

  * Update to the 3.0 (native) source format with no changes.
  * Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.4:
- remove the version from the Perl build dependency
  * Update the copyright file to the latest revision of DEP 5 and
bump the year on my copyright notice.

  Yes, that would speed up the uploads and avoid some time dups:

 Hi,
 
 This still hasn't been uploaded. Are you waiting for me to become a DM
 and upload it myself? I've been a bit too preoccupied for that lately,
 but could probably start now. 

Well, have your time, and start at your convenience, of course.

 Or did you send me an email about it to
 which I haven't replied? I got a notification from the list server last
 week that my address had been bouncing; hopefully just retry later
 bounces because it had been down for a few hours.

Ops, apparently I forgot to reply to that (i.e. previous) mail for some reason 
a week ago, sorry about that. I had a look at the src diff against the version 
in sid, got lost into that, and decided that large change like that to fix few 
decorative bugs does not justify the risk to eventually introduce fresh bugs 
to the package already found in sid for a month, while Debian is approaching a 
release. I'd be glad if a more capable reviewer give it a try., and eventually 
upload, if necessary. Do we really have good reasons, to worry about roxterm 
1.18.2-1 in testing and sid?

Please don't upload this, it is buggy.  I'll work on fixing it and

One of the bugs I fixed is a bit more serious, involving trying to
access freed memory, which can cause unpredictable crashes (it never bit
me, a gentoo user found it). If you're concerned about the other changes
I could isolate that fix as a patch and release 1.18.2-2, but that
doesn't really strike me as the right thing to do when the fix is
released upstream.

I'll also contact the other potential sponsor who emailed me privately
and see if he's willing to review 1.18.3-1.

RFS: xpdf (updated package)

2010-06-02 Thread Michael Gilbert
Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 3.02-3
of my package xpdf.

It builds these binary packages:
xpdf   - Portable Document Format (PDF) suite
xpdf-common - Transitional package for xpdf
xpdf-reader - Transitional package for xpdf
xpdf-utils - Transitional package for poppler-utils

The package appears to be lintian clean.

The upload would fix these bugs: 351279, 461411, 548182, 548183,
548184, 548185, 576543, 576683, 577031, 577086, 577917, 578892

I have updated the package to use poppler instead of its own rendering
code, which is a fairly significant but very useful/important change.
I think it would be good to get additional testing/feedback in
experimental to make sure this hasn't introduced regressions or other
problems.  I've done quite a bit of testing over the past week, and it
seems to work fine so far, but I think testing from a wider audience
is prudent.

The logic for such a huge change is to reduce the security maintainence
burden for squeeze since there are issues are often disclosed in the xpdf
rendering codebase; aka poppler.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/x/xpdf
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main 
contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/x/xpdf/xpdf_3.02-3.dsc

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

Best wishes,
Michael Gilbert
