I thought I said that libpkg-guide was wrong about library dev package names.

My comment about nothing using it was unrelated to that though.

Thanks for your offer to help.

A good way to start with packaging is to join an existing team;
http://wiki.debian.org/Teams has a nice overview, maybe you find an
area of interest there.

Just so you know, Lintian should complain about your Standards-Version
these days.  None of the released versions of Lintian currently in
Debian (2.5.0~rc2 or older) knows of the newest Standards-Version 3.9.2.
 It is scheduled for the next upload of Lintian, but until then you
should see a newer-standards-version.

Re: RFS: piwik

2011-04-14 Thread Fabrizio Regalli
Hello,

I'm back to work on the package just today due to other activity in
Debian (and not).
Next days I will try to find a solution for the problem that you have
reported.
In the meantime, as temporary solution, would be fine if it remained in
non-free section. What do you think?  
We may also then file a bug to request to move the package on main.
Mine is not an imposition is just because I'd like to share with people
more experienced than me any choice.
I've also opened an collab-maint project on alioth [1] so maybe someone
helps me play with swf and mtask.

Finally there is a little problem with d/watch because the upstream
released 'latest.zip' without any minor/major number related to the
version but for this thing I can find a fast solution.

Cheers,
Fabrizio.

Re: RFS: nautilus-image-manipulator

2011-04-14 Thread Emilien Klein
Paul Gevers, Julien Valroff,

I've created the package both with debuild and pdebuild. The latter
made me realize I needed more build dependencies (pkg-config,
python-nautilus) that where used by the `python setup.py install`
command. The package was building OK, but since those packages where
not available at install time, the setup script was not creating the
Nautilus extension...

Regarding the automatic patches created, i was able to trace its creation:
`python setup.py install` automatically rebuilds the i18n files. In
doing so, it updates the .pot translation template IN the source
files. This is OK the first time you create the package, no patch is
added to the debian package. However, if you create the package a
second time, since the .pot file has been modified with respect to the
source tarball, the builder tools will create a patch, thinking that
the change was made on purpose/manually.

In order to address this, I added a command to override_dh_clean that
extracts the .pot file from the .orig.tar.gz tarball and replaces the
eventually modified .pot file in the source directory. That way, when
cleaning the build environment, the .pot file is the same as what was
shipped in the source tarball.

Also, I have installed Squeeze in a VM. Since running the packaging in
Debian directly, Lintian is not complaining anymore about using a too
recent Standards-Version. With that, all 3 of Julien's initials
comments [0] have now been addressed, and the package is now looking
good!

Can you please check my updated package [1]? Thanks!

Cheers!
+Emilien

I would start with FAQ:
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianMentorsFaq

and browsing archives of this list, you should find posts with similar question:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2010/10/msg00272.html
http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2010/07/msg00285.html
http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2009/11/msg00375.html
http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2009/08/msg00437.html

I think that you should decide which package/packages you're
interested in helping packaging and move from there.

Best of luck!

RFS: sonic

2011-04-14 Thread Bill Cox
Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "sonic".

* Package name: sonic
  Version : 0.1.14-1
  Upstream Author : Bill Cox (me)
* URL : http://dev.vinux-project.org/sonic/
* License : LGPL v2.1
  Section : sound

It builds these binary packages:
libsonic-dev - Header file for linking to libsonic
libsonic0  - Simple library to speed up or slow down speech
sonic  - Simple utility to speed up or slow down speech

The package appears to be lintian clean.

My motivation for maintaining this package is: Better sound quality
for speeding up speech, vs other packages available in Debian,
especially for over 2X speedup, and in all cases relative to WSOLA
base algorithms.  Sonic is already the best library used in Android
for playing audio books at high speed (Astro Player, Osplay, others
soon), and is also used in several TTS engines.  My goal in creating
sonic and licensing it LGPL is to enable all tech gadgets to speak
clearly at high speed.  This is especially important for people with
vision impairments.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/sonic
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
main contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/sonic/sonic_0.1.14-1.dsc

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

Kind regards
 Bill Cox

My sincere thanks for reporting this observation.
The packaging is correct, but I had to send a note
to the original ITP thread for correction, since
the RFS was based on the ITP text.

On repackaging source, caused by GFDL-1.3.

2011-04-14 Thread Mats Erik Andersson
Dear all masters of the trade,

I am in a position with "gnurush" that the upstream author
has not responded within a reasonable time as to what his
future intentions are regarding texinfo source, which
mandates front-cover and back-cover to be included.
Therefore I will proceed to repackage the upstream
source, in order that I may finally resolve an RFP,
for which my packaging was already rejected by the
FTP Master. On fair grounds, I must add.

Removing the texinfo source from the source archive will
be standard enough, as will the tweaking of the build
system probably be.

However, my intention is to isolate the rebellic Texinfo
part into a separate package "gnurush-doc", that would
have to go into "non-free". Already from the beginning
did I compose manual pages for the offered binaries,
so this separation will not violate any policy on that
account.

Keeping the full upstream source in order to build a
fairly minute documentation package seems rather
waistful. Is there some alternate common practice
available? That would suggest a small tailored
repackaging in order to target this "gnurush-doc",
only containing the Texinfo document and the
supplementary files for Debian?

Best regards,
  Mats Erik Andersson, DM

RFS: bournal

2011-04-14 Thread Mats Erik Andersson
Dear mentors,

it is my hope to find a sponsor for the package "bournal":

  Package name  : bournal
  Version   : 1.5-1
  Upstream authors  : Prof. Fapsanders 
  URL   : http://becauserinter.net/bournal/
  License   : GPL-3+
  Section   : misc

It builds a single binary package:
bournal- encrypting journal or diary for the console

The package appears to be lintian clean, which is not so
hard for a Bash script, with some added menu and desktop
overlay.

The upload would fix the single ITP bug: 622297

The software has already existed for a handful years,
but it is only now when the encryption method has moved
to GnuPG, that it is trustworthy enough to be officially
maintained. Personally I appreciate the ability to keep
a local journal, which I know is stored encrypted at
all times, and which is useable in a console, where I do
most of my work.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/b/bournal
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/b/bournal/bournal_1.5-1.dsc
