There are lots of different ways to contribute to Debian, some of them are listed here: https://www.debian.org/intro/help A great way to start contributing is to look at the packages you have installed that are in need of help, using the how-can-i-help tool. The maint-guide document is our canonical introduction to maintaining packages. https://wiki.debian.org/how-can-i-help https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/ Most of the time, mentoring within Debian happens in public, folks ask questions either on the #debian-mentors IRC channel or debian-mentors mailing list and whoever knows the answer will reply. In addition there are some one-on-one mentoring programs: https://wiki.debian.org/Mentoring > I am engaged in embedded development work, maybe I can start from this. That sounds like a great way to start, some possibly useful/related links are available here: https://wiki.debian.org/ArmPorts https://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/ftbfs.cgi?arch=armel https://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/ftbfs.cgi?arch=armhf https://wiki.debian.org/MIPSPort https://wiki.debian.org/U-boot/Status https://wiki.debian.org/ChrootOnAndroid https://wiki.debian.org/Mobile -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
Meaning of "Checking build-dependency (indep) on amd64" excuse
Hi, Could somebody please explain me the meaning of the "Checking build-dependency (indep) on amd64" migration excuse as seen on https://qa.debian.org/excuses.php?package=pacemaker? I think I understand the rest, although I don't know whether the autopkgtest regression blocks migration indefinitely. That would be unfortunate, because unstable pcs needs unstable pacemaker, so they deadlock... -- Thanks, Feri

Looking at the code, I think it means that the migration scripts are verifying the Build-Depends-Indep packages are installable on amd64 and probably ignoring installability on other arches. This is reasonable since all of Debian's arch:all buildds use amd64 right now. https://salsa.debian.org/release-team/britney2/blob/britney2/policies/policy.py#L916 > I think I understand the rest, although I don't know whether the > autopkgtest regression blocks migration indefinitely.

Re: dwz: libsleef3.debug: .debug_line reference above end of section
Hi, Thanks for the pointers. But I think I'm not able to fix it even if I tried to diagnose the debug information. ATM I asked several people and it is likely that the dwz error stems from toolchain support problem. Now the build log on non-release archivectures are also available, and it seems that nearly all these non-release architectures (kind of) suffer from similar prblem. Temporarily overriding dh_dwz to noop it is an eligible solution to me. Another solution could be simply downgrading dh compat back to 11. On Sat, Jan 12, 2019 at 04:10:02PM +, Rebecca N.

Re: Hello
Hi HuangKaiXiang, Thank you for your interest in Debian! I'd like to add some points that Paul Wise missed. Apart from those packaging tutorial/guides, reading examples is a good way to learn skills and improve yourself quickly. When you are about to do that, you may possibly need this code search tool: http://sources.debian.net/ On Tue, Jan 15, 2019 at 03:38:23PM +0800, HuangKaiXiang wrote: > Hello everyone,I want to join as a Debian developer.

OK, will do. -- Regards, Feri

Bug#919446: RFS: owlrl/5.2.0-1 [ITP]
Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: wishlist Dear Mentors, I'm looking for a sponsor for my package "owlrl" Package name: owlrl Version : 5.2.0 Upstream Author : Ivan Herman URL : https://github.com/RDFLib/OWL-RL License : W3C Programming Lang: Python Section : python Description : A simple implementation of the OWL2 RL Profile on top of RDFLib: it expands the graph with all possible triples that RDFS and OWL-RL defines. It can be used together with RDFLib to expand an RDFLib Graph object, or as a stand alone service with its own serialization. It builds those binary packages: python3-owlrl - OWL-RL and RDFS based RDF Closure inferencing To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: https://mentors.debian.net/package/owlrl Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/o/owlrl/owlrl_5.2.0-1.dsc The useful python application called RDFClosure by Ivan Herman was recently updated to v5 and released on pypi. I am an active developer on owlrl and I maintain the pypi release. I intend to package another tool called pySHACL for debian, but it relies on owlrl, so I need owlrl released as a debian package first. The only requirement of owlrl is rdflib, which is already an actively maintained debian package. I intend to personally be the active maintainer of this package (via a sponsor). I have not released a debain package before, I will be looking for a sponsor to get this (owlrl) and pySHACL packaged and published, perhaps the maintainer or rdflib would like to sponsor this package.

Bug#919449: RFS: pyshacl/0.9.9-1 [ITP]
Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: wishlist Dear Mentors, I'm looking for a sponsor for my package "pyshacl" Package name: pyshacl Version : 0.9.9 Upstream Author : Ashley Sommer URL : https://github.com/RDFLib/pyshacl License : Apache License 2.0 Programming Lang: Python Section : python Description : A pure Python packages which allows for the validation of RDF graphs against Shapes Constraint Language (SHACL) files. It builds those binary packages: python3-pyshacl - Python SHACL Validator To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: https://mentors.debian.net/package/pyshacl Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/pyshacl/pyshacl_0.9.9-1.dsc This is a pure Python package which allows for the validation of RDF graphs against Shapes Constraint Language (SHACL) graphs. This module uses the rdflib Python library for working with RDF and is dependent on the OWL-RL Python module for OWL2 RL Profile-based expansion of data graphs. This module is developed to adhere to the SHACL Recommendation: >Holger Knublauch; Dimitris Kontokostas. Shapes Constraint Language (SHACL). 20 >July 2017. W3C Recommendation. URL: https://www.w3.org/TR/shacl/ ED: >https://w3c.github.io/data-shapes/shacl/ It has been suggested to me by several users that they find pySHACL to be a very useful tool and would like to see it available as a debian package. I agree. I am the lead developer of pySHACL and I maintain the release on pypi. As well as rdflib, this packages relies on the owlrl python module as a prerequisite. I've already filed an ITP for and RFS for owlrl. I am looking for a sponsor to get this software packaged, perhaps the maintainer for rdflib could help with sponsorship.
