RFS: amispammer (updated package)
Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 3.2-1 of my package amispammer.
It builds these binary packages:
amispammer - Powerful Mail Server checker on blacklists
The package appears to be lintian clean.
The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/a/amispammer
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main
contrib non-free
- dget
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/a/amispammer/amispammer_3.2-1.dsc
I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.
Kind regards,
--

Lintian still warns about: E: autoconf-archive source: git-patches-not-exported P: autoconf-archive source: unneeded-build-dep-on-quilt Hi Bastien, Hi Kilian; As lintian-info -t git-patches-not-exported indicates, that warning is because the source package contains a non-empty debian/source/git-patches, but no actual patches. I couldn't actually find a tag or branch named upstream/2011.04.12 in your git repo on collab-maint, but if I use the current head of upstream, then it is identical to debian-patches/2011.04.12. This seems to have triggered a bug in the gitpkg hook which fails to detect that you have not exported any patches. For the moment, you can just comment out the line in debian/source/git-patches (or delete that file), and I'll see about fixing the gitpkg hook. I append a patch, but I'm not sure yet that this is the best fix.

The original package does not provide a man page, so I can not provide one.

Adding man pages in no way differs from other patches. Best, Michael Not sure what the exact issue here is, but the upstream source tarball does come with a manpage. Cheers, Sander Hi, okay. That was my mistake. For some time there was no man page, but now there is. There was a mistake in the package such that the man page was not installed.

I'll review your package and sponsor it for sure. Now, I just had a look to the remarks by Arno Toll, and I agree with (most of) them. Please clean the package and let us know when it is ready. Here's few remarks on the remarks of Arno: + Instead of your dependency line apache2 | lighttpd you probably want to depend on the httpd-cgi virtual package [2] instead, and give a preference if you wish. I'd rather say: don't depend AT ALL on a web server. This is very annoying in some situations, and it's not your job to decide, but the one of the administrator. I have a situation here where I am using php5-cgi with no web server at all (because it's in a chroot), and having a dependency on a web server is *very* annoying. + Finally php-fastcgi seems wrong to me unless you actually depend on Lighttpd or any other (Fast-)CGI compatible web server. For Apache you maybe want to depend on libapache2-mod-php5 instead, since this is what most people are using for PHP when using Apache. Again, it's not your job to select a flavor for PHP. You just should depend on the largest possible choice, so maybe something like: libapache2-mod-php5 | php5-cgi would do. * You debian/copyright contains the full URL, i.e. the direct link to the origin package. Its not wrong to do so, but keep in mind you have to update this for every upload. Generally its fine enough to point to the upstream homepage there. There is also DEP-5 [6] which is perhaps the way to go for future packages. This not required though. While dep5 isn't required by Debian, it is required by *me* when I sponsor a package. So please use that format. * Your package contains GIF files. There are some discussions whether they fall into the preferred form for modification rule as they are binary data [14]. However I believe for your use case its fine to package them. Maybe someone else may comment on this. If there are some ways to generate the GIF files from some other source code, then yes, it should be done this way. Otherwise, GIF files can be considered upstream source as well. Since the GIF patent expired, GIF aren't less good than PNG or others, and it's ok to use them. * Your package is not lintian clean (this shouldn't suprise you): Yes. Please use lintian and check that you clean absolutely ALL of the issues that lintian is pointing at. Remember to use the -Ii flags when calling it, so it shows really all. Thomas Goirand (zigo)
Re: RFS: xul-ext-zotero (2nd try)
Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for my package xul-ext-zotero, an extension for Iceweasel. This is the second package attempt, after addressing all the issues raised by Kilian Krause ( http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2011/07/msg00051.html ). * Package name: xul-ext-zotero Version : 2.1.8-1 Upstream Author : Center for History and New Media, George Mason University c...@gmu.edu * URL : http://www.zotero.org/ * License : Affero GPLv3 Section : web It builds these binary packages: xul-ext-zotero - Iceweasel extension to collect, organize, cite, and share your research sources The package appears to be lintian clean. The upload would fix these bugs: 633808 This package is NOT closing bug #504058, as it provides only Zotero the Iceweasel extension. Bug #504058 was originally opened 3 years ago as a request to package the Iceweasel extension. Last January, Benjamin Mako Hill set the bug to ITP and expressed his intent to package Zotero Standalone (a different version of the same project) when it reaches beta status (it is currently in alpha). I have sent 2 emails to Mako, in order to coordinate this effort, but did not get a response in the past 10 days. Thus I have opened ITP bug #633808, in order to leave #504058 untouched. My motivation for maintaining this package is: Zotero is IMHO the best citation manager out there, a powerful research tool that I (and thousands of other people) use on a regular basis, and its latest version should always be in the Debian repositories.

Re: RFS: gogglesmm
Hi all, [...] okay. That was my mistake. For some time there was no man page, but now there is. There was a mistake in the package such that the man page was not installed. I hope this fixes the last issue with the package. [...] I'm afraid the copyright file isn't yet fully complete: - src/md5.h, src/md5.cpp have a distinct license and copyright holders. - src/GMDBus.h is LGPL v2.1+ - line 11 of debian/copyright should probably say LGPL, not GPL. A few more minor notes: - debian/rules, target clean depends on itself!? - lintian has a few more notes, all of which are easy to fix: I: gogglesmm source: quilt-patch-missing-description fox_pkg_config.diff I: gogglesmm source: debian-watch-contains-dh_make-template I: gogglesmm: package-contains-empty-directory usr/sbin/ I: gogglesmm: desktop-entry-contains-encoding-key usr/share/applications/gogglesmm.desktop:2 Encoding May I ask you to fix those remaining small issues?

Re: dacco and qdacco packages waiting sponsor
Hi, [...] The question is: how do you generate these files with c++ tags? Is it possible to automatically generate the files? [...] Yes, that can be done almost fully automatically. The main step is piping the current symbols file through c++filt, as in cat qdacco-0.8.2/debian/libqdaccolib0.7.symbols | c++filt then make sure you keep the first line of your current file. The final step is only text mangling: add (c++) in front of each symbol and enclose each symbol in double quotes (as you've taken a look at diagnostics already, you can pick up the exact positioning of all this from there). Please let me know if you need any further details! Best, Michael pgpTl7eepjcl5.pgp Description: PGP signature
