RFS: iroffer-dinoex
Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for my package "iroffer-dinoex". * Package name: iroffer-dinoex Version : 3.23-1 Upstream Author : Dirk Meyer * URL : http://iroffer.dinoex.net/ * License : GPLv2 Section : net It builds these binary packages: iroffer-dinoex - IRC file distribution bot The package appears to be lintian clean. The upload would fix these bugs: 580686 The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/i/iroffer-dinoex - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free - dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/i/iroffer-dinoex/iroffer-dinoex_3.23-1.dsc I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me. Kind regards Firas Kraiem P.S. : The ITP bug is for version 3.21. I already sent a RFS for that version, but got no answer, and I got busy afterwards, so didn't have the time to get back at it until now, when 3.23 is out. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Ah, that was from the old debian packaging by the maintainer, which I adapted. (Statement was probably accurate in those days.)

As I recall (but I have not used it in a while) it only generate a set of template files to get you started. Also pbuilder builds your package in a "clean chroot" where it only installs the packages listed in Build-Depends and Build-Depends-Indep of your debian/control (+ the "build-essential" packages). So you probably have to open the debian/control file and add the correct build dependencies there. I apologize for the short answer with no reference to relevant information, but I am really out of time :) I am about to leave DebConf10 (like a lot of other Debian people). ~Niels -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEAREIAAYFAkxewlcACgkQVCqoiq1YlqykKACfTId9Pw0Q2yerPPeuUXnyZbFU QIAAoMV8gYAjuecmaHjkN8bdvPdwENWX =GAMJ -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

The /usr/sbin/wrapper command doesn't include a manpage, which should be a warning for any recent version of lintian. There is also a warning about the standards version; the current standards version is 3.9.1. These are both minor and easily addressed. 2) You are installing the JNI libraries in /usr/lib/service-wrapper/. According to Java policy, you should be installing the C compiled bits under /usr/lib/jni/. Specifically see http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/java-policy/c43.html. I think ideally your packaging would produce (2) binary packages, one arch: all package that contains the wrapper script and the JAR, and then another arch: any package that contains the JNI libraries per platform. 3) I was curious about setting -Dbits=32 in Debian rules. Will this work on all architectures, or does it imply a 32-bit JVM? 4) You may also want to review the information about javahelper here: http://wiki.debian.org/Java/Packaging Regards, tony signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
