Bug#699824: Updated package
I have updated the package on mentors several times. The now topmost version is the best compromise I could find to circumvent the following problem: When the program is started and finds no sql database in its working directory, it produces a database via ~5000 sql queries which takes about 5 minutes. During this procedure the program is stalled. This is unacceptable and while it would be best to optimize the sql queries and handle the database creation in a separate thread, I decided for the time being to create a template database and fetch it in the debian folder. This increases the installed size of the program by 500 KB (~10%), which I find acceptable.

Bug#699776: RFS: pycdio/0.18-1 [ITP]
I patched some bugs in the source. lintian4python now only reports one warning, which in my opinion is simply wrong. I forwarded the changes to upstream and they have been accepted. I hope the FTBFS is solved with change of build-deps to python-all-dev. The new package version is topmost at http://mentors.debian.net/package/pycdio The remaining problem is the missing full license text of the GPL3 in the upstream tarball. This problem will be fixed in upcoming upstream releases. For the present package I included a COPYING file in the debian directory. Is that sufficient, do I have to do more or is it imperative that the publicly released upstream tarball includes the full license text?

RFR: python-qrcode -- native python module to generate QR codes
Hello, I created and uploaded a debian package with a python module: * Package name: qrcode Version : 2.4.2-1 Upstream Author : Lincoln Loop i...@lincolnloop.com * URL : https://github.com/lincolnloop/python-qrcode * License : BSD (2 clause) MIT/X11 (BSD like) Section : python It builds those binary packages: python-qrcode - QR Code image generator The package and further information can be accessed here. http://mentors.debian.net/package/qrcode I would be happy about any feedback and reviews. In the long run I am also looking for a sponsor. About the package: I know that debian already contains the python-qrencode module, which could do the same. But the qrencode module needs a C library to be compiled. Thus, if you have a python application that will not only run on debian but probably also on other distributions, or will be installed from python source (pypi), it is easier to use qrcode the qrencode, since there is no C compilation process involved in installing this python modules from the source.

Do you mean python-module-but-no-python-depends? It is true positive:
you need ${python:Depends} in Depends instead of hardcoded python
(=2.6.5).
I hope the FTBFS is solved with change of build-deps to python-all-dev.
It now FTBFS differently:

Bug#700567: RFS: burp/1.3.24-1
Hello, thanks for maintaining this package, but I have some notes/questions: 1) Please, use compat-level 9, your package builds in this case fine and removes hardening-warnings from lintian. 2) Changelog is the mess: a) A lot of UNRELEASED-words. b) Warnings due to bad formatting (use lintian for check). c) The last version in Debian is 1.3.8-1, but I cannot find it in changelog. Moreover there are a lot of versions, which have never been uploaded in Debian (1.3.18-1, for example). They should not be there. d) A lot of items in changelog, which should be in upstream-changelog, but not in Debian one. Please, move them to a appropriate file. Debian-changelog should contain only the Debian-stuff and changes. 3) Review your copyright-file according to a DEP-5. There are a lot of unneeded words. This file should be short and machine-readable. 4) Where is it possible to download the upstream-tarball of this version? It is necessary to check md5-sums. 5) It is better to separate debian-folder and upstream-files and maintain debian-stuff somewhere collab-maintain or in a group. It is easier for reviewers/maintainers/DDs to do their job. But it is IMHO, Actually, why VCS-browser link is commented? The package seems in a good shape, but it really needs to be fixed before uploading. Most of stuff is easy to fix. Please, consider moving debian-stuff to a common place for easier maintenance and collaboration.

Bug#699824: Updated package
Hello Benjamin, some notes on your package: 1) Please, use DEP-3 for patches, just add at least short Description, Author and Last-Update fields. 2) Where is it possible to download a tar.gz, which is shipped with the package? 3) Please, use VCS for maintaining your package. You can do it on collab-maintain or in one of available teams. It will be easier to maintain/review your package, using VCS. 4) Why do you patch tipp10.desktop, if you have one more desktop-file in debian-folder? 5) Add debian/watch file. 6) You have html-documentation, it should have be indicated in corresponding doc-base files. 7) Add a manpage, at least a short one, describing the minimal functionality. 8) Can you use the name /usr/bin/tipp10 instead of /usr/bin/tipp10launcher? 9) Use --parallel option in debian/rules for faster buildings on many-cores build-machines. 10) Use lintian over .changes file for controlling your package.

lintian warning that this should not be done.
Any suggestion on how to overcome this?
Thanks

warning, which in my opinion is simply wrong.
Do you mean python-module-but-no-python-depends? It is true positive:

What I mean by wrong warning is:
w: python-pycdio: pyflakes-redefined-function
usr/share/pyshared/cdio.py:907: get line 890
(I got this with lintian4py -iI)
I added python-setuptools as a build dependency (I must have forgotten
that, when I installed it) and ${python:Depends} as dependency. I
uploaded the new version to mentors and hope it now compiles and works.

Bug#699824: Updated package
Hi Anton, thank you for your comments. 1,3,6,7,8,9,10) Can do. 2) The source code is not distributed as .tar.gz archive but as .zip archive by upstream. The .zip archive is available at http://www.tipp10.com/en/download/tipp10_source_v2-1-0.zip 4) That is a mistake, I had decided against the desktop file in debian directory but forgot to remove it. 5) I tried hard to add a watch file, but due to the non-standard form of source code distribution, my tinkering lead nowhere. I will try harder as soon as I have time. 11) The only alternatives I see to shipping the binary file are: a) Patch to skip the initialization of the database at first program start. This will probably result in the intelligent word sequencing not working. b) Patch to enhance performance of database initialization, handling database initialization in a separate thread and providing a lock on the database while initialization. This would be very hard work for me and probably take quite some time. What do you suggest? 1) Please, use DEP-3 for patches, just add at least short Description, Author and Last-Update fields. 2) Where is it possible to download a tar.gz, which is shipped with the package? 3) Please, use VCS for maintaining your package. You can do it on collab-maintain or in one of available teams. It will be easier to maintain/review your package, using VCS. 4) Why do you patch tipp10.desktop, if you have one more desktop-file in debian-folder? 5) Add debian/watch file. 6) You have html-documentation, it should have be indicated in corresponding doc-base files. 7) Add a manpage, at least a short one, describing the minimal functionality. 8) Can you use the name /usr/bin/tipp10 instead of /usr/bin/tipp10launcher? 9) Use --parallel option in debian/rules for faster buildings on many-cores build-machines. 10) Use lintian over .changes file for controlling your package.
