Bug#843074 RFS: shutdown-qapps/1.7.2-1 - previously sponsored by Brian Nelson
Dear mentors and sponsors, sorry for my previous double post in this list. I just didn't realize that the bug report had automatically caused a post here. I would be really happy if there would be anyone to sponsor my package again. If there is some need for changes, please feel free to contact me. I will be happy about any constructive ideas too. A few people already contacted me directly and there were some changes accordingly. For example the scheduler I added only recently in qshutdown. For more information on shutdown-qapps, please see my previous post here: https://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2016/11/msg00058.html Best regards, Christian Metscher

Thank you for your reply. I think I should have just asked the release team whether this would violate the freeze or not. I've e-mailed them. I have another question that is appropriate for -mentors, though: do I need to patch in a SONAME bump? I have now confirmed that libghc-zxcvbn-c-dev, the only package in unstable that depends on libzxcvbn, does not require a binNMU to work with the new version of libzxcvbn. And there has been no stable release containing libzxcvbn, so there are almost certainly no compiled binaries out there which will break. I don't want a delta from upstream if I can avoid it. Is a SONAME bump needed? Thanks. -- Sean Whitton signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Bug#832941: RFS: 4pane (debian: to exclusive)
Dear David, 1. Why do you have a folder full of patches, when you are the upstream author of 4Pane? Have they been applied upstream, but there hasn't been a release of 4Pane recently? DEP-3 has a patch header to indicate that they have been merged upstream, if this is indeed the case. 2. I see that w.r.t. 4pane/4Pane, you're using 4Pane wherever Debian policy permits you too. Good idea. The only thing I'm not sure about is the symlink from /usr/share/doc/4Pane to /usr/share/doc/4pane/html. It could be misleading, since Debian users expect /usr/share/doc/foo to give them a folder containing a changelog, a Debian changelog etc. Why not link to /usr/share/doc/4pane?

Bug#840424: RFS: verilog-mode
control: retitle -1 RFS: verilog-mode/20160910.debfc6d-1 [ITP] Dear Kiwamu, Thank you for your work to bring this new package to Debian! As I said, I can't sponsor the upload, but I hope this more detailed review is useful to you. I've split it into two sections: things that I would consider must-fixes before an upload to Debian, and suggested improvements. The latter aren't strictly necessary, but they would help demonstrate to a potential sponsor that you are committed to maintaining this package in Debian. Must fixes == 1. The line "Only support emacs and xemacs" doesn't make sense (what else would you be supporting?). What were you trying to say? 2. There is a Lintian error: E: verilog-mode: info-document-missing-dir-section usr/share/info/verilog.info.gz 3. Some files are not GPL-3+. For example, tests/auto_delete_whitespace.v. Please check every file's copyright status and detail in d/copyright. 4. The README is useless to an end user who has already installed the package, so you shouldn't be installing it -- it could be confusing. 5. You've missed some steps of the Emacs policy.[1] For example, you are missing a emacsen compat level. Please check the policy carefully. Suggestions === 1. It would be best to build-depend on emacs25, not emacs24. emacs24 might be removed from stretch. 2. At debhelper compat 10, you can probably delete debian/verilog-mode.dirs. 3. You are generating ChangeLog.txt but not installing it. You can use dh_installchangelogs(1). 4. How about installing verilog-lex.el as an example? See dh_installexamples(1). Or possibly somewhere else. [1] https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/debian-emacs-policy -- Sean Whitton signature.asc Description: PGP signature

upload to mentors
Hi, I've just reinstalled my development machine for debian packaging and wanted to upload some packages to mentors which doesn't work as expected. In the past I had a complete path set for "incoming" in the ~/.dput.cf exemplary like follows incoming = /upload/u...@example.org/whatevermd5string I've switched my settings for the incoming-path (as suggestet in [1]). During Upload with dput I receive an error: "Upload failed: 403 Forbidden" And Package is directly visible via ftp://mentors.debian.net but not processed and attached to my account on mentors? It's been a while since I've uploaded the last time to mentors maybe anyone else ran into the same issue and has an advice.

Bug#845018: RFS: quagga/1.1.0-1 [ITA] -- network routing daemons
❦ 20 novembre 2016 01:43 +1100, Scott Leggett: > * Rely on automatic -dbgsym package rather than deprecated -dbg. You need to make a migration for people having a -dbg. This is done with --dbgsym-migration argument of dh_strip. > * Add quagga user to quaggavty group in preinst. I suppose this was in the original packaging, but this is better to use adduser/addgroup unconditionally. Both commands will check if the user/group already exists with the appropriate parameters. Notably, if the user/group is not a system one, it will trigger an error. > * Use systemd .service files rather than init.d scripts (Closes: #678946, > #805840, #839819, #412483). I am quite OK with that. You don't have time to sort out those problems. However, this is somewhat controversial. > * Split quagga package out into multiple packages (Closes: #705306). People upgrading will suddenly have all the daemons missing. You could introduce a "base" or "minimal" package that wouldn't depend on the daemons (and the daemons would depend on them). The "quagga" package would still depend on all the daemons. However, the NEWS entry could be sufficient too. Also : - the -dev package should be libquagga-dev - default/quagga could be called "quagga.default" and would be installed automatically as /etc/default/quagga. - the service files seem to use wrong paths. In Debian, chown is in /bin, not /usr/bin. - if you think that maintaining all those lintian overrides is too much effort, I think that people usually don't override "informational" messages. - in maintainers script, I would drop the non-standard debug stuff at the top of each of them - in postinst, changing permissions in /etc is frowned upon since it could undo what a user has done. You should use dpkg-statoverride which gives the user a chance to implement its own policy. -- Debian package sponsoring guidelines: https://vincent.bernat.im/en/debian-package-sponsoring.html signature.asc Description: PGP signature
