That's really more of a "problem" caused by pbuilder (which enforces
LANG=C and LC_ALL=C). If you aren't doing so already, please do test
build your package with pbuilder/cowbuilder/sbuild.

However, I was able to build your package just by adding "export
LC_ALL=C.UTF-8" to d/rules. I can upload your package with this
change, or if you'd rather fix this upstream, that's fine with me as
well.

Bug#791697: RFS: wxmaxima/15.04.0-1
Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal
Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for my package "wxmaxima"
* Package name : wxmaxima
Version : 15.04.0-1
Upstream Author : Andrej Vodopivec
* URL : http://andrejv.github.io/wxmaxima/
* License : GPL-2+
Section : math
It builds those binary packages:
wxmaxima - GUI for the computer algebra system Maxima
More detailed information about the package:
What is wxMaxima?
wxMaxima is a powerful graphical user interface for maxima, a program
that is specialized in finding symbolic solutions for mathematical
problems (which means it actually tries to find the formula that solves
a problem, not the number the formula would result in).
A simple example what it can do would be:
-> a^2+b^2=c^2;
-> solve(%,c);
[c=-sqrt(b^2+a^2),c=sqrt(b^2+a^2)]
But it can find a formula that solves many types of differential
equations, too:
-> dgl:diff(diff(x(t),t),t)=-x(t);
-> desolve(dgl,x(t));
x(t)=sin(t)*(at('diff(x(t),t,1),t=0))+x(0)*cos(t)
The actual output on the screen is much nicer, naturally, since the
equations are displayed in 2D there.
It is to notice, though, that wxMaxima can be used for numerical work,
too: It supports calculating with ordinary floating-point numbers if
one requests this - but it will happily use arbitrary-precision numbers
by default, exact fractions or bigfloat with a user-specified precision
that is only limited by the amount of memory that is available.
Why does the package need to be updated?
The version currently packaged with debian (13.04) is over two years
old. Moreover this old version has many bugs:
- In some locales many keys (for example in germany all hotkeys)
didn't work in 13.04
- In version 13.04 drag-and drops drops about half of the parenthesis
- 13.04 crashes if it has to display sometimes not-too-complicated
equations or if the save button is pressed while the program is
calculating
Also the old version currently packaged with debian still doesn't come
with a manual, has only a limited undo functionality and in many places
is rather slow. A longer list of enhancements can be found at
https://github.com/andrejv/wxmaxima/blob/master/ChangeLog
The package is lintian-free. Currently it is marked as "orphaned". But
I am willing to package new versions and upload them to
mentors.debian.org on a regular basis. This is needed, too, since the
next version, once released, will have a pack of features new, too
including higher processing speed and syntax highlighting.

Dear Vincent, Thanks to your help this will be my first really professional debian package: - d/changelog: please wrap lines to <80 chars (IIRC lintian has a check for this, not sure why it's not being triggered here), Done. and there's a duplicate "debian/copyright: The tango icons have been released to the public domain" entry in there. Done. - I can't seem to fetch a tarball directly from upstream using either your get-orig-source target or uscan directly (I check this when sponsoring packages to ensure that the tarball on mentors is identical to the tarball distributed upstream): Thanks a lot! Didn't know about this command, but made it work. Did try to upload the package to debian mentors under the same version number as the old one (hope this was a good idea) but did forget to remove the old one first => will retry uploading it when the server has sorted my mistake out.

https://github.com/andrejv/wxmaxima/blob/master/ChangeLog
The package is lintian-free. Currently it is marked as "orphaned". But
I am willing to package new versions and upload them to
mentors.debian.org on a regular basis. This is needed, too, since the
next version, once released, will have a pack of features new, too
including higher processing speed and syntax highlighting.
To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:
http://mentors.debian.net/package/wxmaxima
Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this
command:
dget -x
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/w/wxmaxima/wxmaxima_15.04.0-1.dsc
More information about hello can be obtained from

I've attached the full build log.
I think the problem is that the PC you tried the build on doesn't have
utf8 as its default encoding, so I need to enforce that in the script.
This would need to apply upstream too so I think the best way is to
change mscript.py with the attached patch. Would you be able to test
that for me before I upload a new version?

Re: blocked migration from unstable to testing: old binaries left
Hello Niels and all: As the last package of ovito, which does not depends on tachyon any more, has reached testing, I think that the tachyon package can now migrate to testing: how can we unblock its migration ?

Almost there, just a few small things: - d/changelog: please wrap lines to <80 chars (IIRC lintian has a check for this, not sure why it's not being triggered here), and there's a duplicate "debian/copyright: The tango icons have been released to the public domain" entry in there. - I can't seem to fetch a tarball directly from upstream using either your get-orig-source target or uscan directly (I check this when sponsoring packages to ensure that the tarball on mentors is identical to the tarball distributed upstream): $ fakeroot debian/rules get-orig-source uscan --force-download --repack --rename --destdir . wxmaxima: remote site does not even have current version debian/rules:21: recipe for target 'get-orig-source' failed make: *** [get-orig-source] Error 1 $ uscan --download-current-version --force-download uscan warning: In debian/watch no matching hrefs for version 15.04.0 in watch line http://sf.net/wxmaxima/ wxMaxima-([\d\.a-z]+)\.tar\.gz Regards, Vincent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal
Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for my package "pentobi"
Package name: pentobi
Version : 10.0-1
Upstream Author : Markus Enzenberger
URL : http://pentobi.sourceforge.net/
License : GPL-3.0+
Section : games
It builds those binary packages:
pentobi - clone of the strategy board game Blokus
pentobi-kde-thumbnailer - clone of the strategy board game Blokus -
KDE thumbnailer
To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:
http://mentors.debian.net/package/pentobi
Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this
command:
dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/pentobi/pentobi_10.0-1.dsc
Git repository can be viewed online at
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-games/pentobi.git
Changes since the last upload:
pentobi (10.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* New upstream release.
* Build with Qt5.
- d/rules: Add Qt5 cmake flags.
- d/control: Adjust Build-Deps.
- d/pentobi-kde-thumbnailer.install: Adjust for new install
locations.
* Drop now unneeded override_dh_install.
* d/pentobi.install, d/pentobi.doc-base.*: Adjust for new help path.
* d/pentobi.doc-base.manual-en-{ca,gb}: en_CA, en_GB dropped upstream.
* d/copyright: Update copyright years.
Due to the switch to Qt5 and KDE Frameworks 5, the KDE thumbnailer
is only useful with a KF5 file manager, i.e. currently only Dolphin
built from git.
With Best Regards,
Juhani
