Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for a number of plugins (currently five) for
the "cpl" library. Each plugin contains the software to process
("reduce" in the astronomer's slang) the data of one instrument mounted
at the Very Large Telescope (VLT) of the European Southern Telescope
(ESO) in Paranal. The structure of the plugins is very similar and is
based on a common template.

First package is "cpl-plugin-sinfo":

* Package name: cpl-plugin-sinfo
  Version : 2.3.3-1
  Upstream Author :  Andrea Modigliani 
* URL :
http://www.eso.org/sci/software/pipelines/sinfoni/sinfo-pipe-recipes.html
* License : GPL
  Section : science

Binary packages:

cpl-plugin-sinfo   - ESO data reduction pipeline SINFONI
cpl-plugin-sinfo-calib - ESO data reduction pipeline calibration data
for SINFONI

Source package URL: http://mentors.debian.net/package/cpl-plugin-sinfo

 dget -x
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/cpl-plugin-sinfo/cpl-plugin-sinfo_2.3.3-1.dsc

SINFONI further information:

Ole

command to use in deploy instructions for custom repo

2013-12-03 Thread Victor Efimov
Hello. I have a custom APT repo (for squeeze/wheezy/jessie) for my software
and Readme page for it with install instructions.

It contains the following line:

echo "deb http://SOMEURL/debian/current $(lsb_release -sc) main"|sudo tee
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/SOMEREPO.list

recently I found this line is wrong:

1) lsb_release is not available in some debian installs (minimal install?
rasberry-pi ? )
2) if user uses FISH as login shell , this expression "$(lsb_release -sc)"
won't work.
3) probably some users would want to use "stable" instead of "wheezy" etc.

What is the recommended way to write such install instructions?

> We'd need to ask a lawyer to get an useful answer to that question, I think.

The problem is that I do not know a lawyer that I could just ask. And I
am German, another dev is American, so I have no idea whether to ask a
German or an American lawyer.

We already have the name in the description. I mean, it would be
pointless to avoid this name. It serves as identification, not really
using the trademark to sell our “product”. From my common sense view, it
should be okay, but I am a scientist, not a lawyer …

That is the problem, it is just screen rotation and docking. “-scripts”
sounds like some assorted scripts, and does not feel like it is claiming
to be complete like “-utils” would.

I like "thinkpad-scripts".

I think "thinkpad-tools" would not be a good idea, nor would
"thinkpad-utils", though.  Mostly because the package would not contain the
majority of the stand-alone thinkpad-specific tools and utils (such as tpb,
thinkbat, thinkfan, etc).

Okay, “thinklight” does not count, then.

The question is, whether using “thinkpad-” would cause any trouble with
trademarks?

I think “thinkpad-utils” or “thinkpad-tools” or “thinkpad-scripts” is an
improvement. Would those be okay with you?

The problem is that it started as a single rotation script and then
evolved into a collection of scripts that do docking, rotating and other
stuff. The earlier the rename is, the less work it is.

thinklight is the (trademarked!) name of a ThinkPad "thinkvantage" feature,
which I hope will come back someday, just like proper LCD screens came
back with the 2013/2014's series-40 (as long as you get a FHD/FHD+/3K IPS
screen, that is).

I don't know about thinkfinger, it is a bit of a misnomer as it is not even
thinkpad-specific in the first place.  I'd have complained about it had I
noticed it in time.

IMHO, the "think-rotate" naming is weird, but given that we accepted
"thinkfinger", it is not a big deal.

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist

Hi folks!

After a yet another remark:
16:32 < daemonkeeper> Too bad Adam never uploaded goodbye!
I'd like to request a sponsor for this infamous packaging example.

While I seriously hope no one follows it directly, it has an educational
value of showing how the .deb format works, and how to create a package
using only low-level tools.  And hey, it's still said to be saner than
waf and yada.

It's dgettable by:

dget -x
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/goodbye/goodbye_0.3-1.dsc

It is lintian --pedantic clean, matches the wording of the Policy (but
might not match its spirit...), and doesn't use cdbs.

Let's add some WTF to FTPmasters' day! :)


Meow!

than 10 monthes have passed since this *suggestion* and nobody minded
about some competing *solution* to Files-Excluded.  I did a lot of work
explaining both alternatives on the Wiki page (it is removed now since
devscripts authors accepted the implemented code for Files-Excluded in
Git).  Since Debian is a Do-O-cracy those things are winning that can
attract volunteers who *do* the actual work.  The other alternative did
not which in turn means it was not convincing enough.

In how far do comments need to be machine readable.  We are talking
about comments and comments are by definition free text and there is no
need to parse this.  So I keep on failing to see the advantage of
"Removed-Files" over "Files-Excluded" and your arguments do not really
convince me.

Fine for me but if I'm not misleaded the package needs to pass new
before this permission can be granted.
 
Kind regards

   Andreas.

PS: There is no point in CCing me - I'm reading debian-science list.

Yep.  Perhaps, this is a reason to improve this comment.

Anyway, I would like to adopt something like this

Another Files-like paragraphs seems to be a sulution.

The solution in

I talked about this with another developer:

https://github.com/martin-ueding/think-rotate/issues/26

It looks like there is no `thinkpad-` package in Ubuntu or Debian, but
several with `think` in them. Does it really make sense to rename this
to `thinkpad`, when there are other packages like `thinkfinger` and
`thinklight`?
