In theory yes, I haven't tested it for your case. You would also of course need to fix the descriptions and arguments though. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise

paho.mqtt.c: Sponsor for package upload?
Hello Roman, thank you for preparing the update to version 1.3.8 in git [1]. Since you don't answer my mails, I would like to try again via the bug tracker and the mailing list. What is the reason that the package does not make it from the Mentors site [2] to the Debian archive for weeks? Is the original sponsor no longer available? Does it make sense to ask for a new sponsor here on the mailing list? Are you interested in handing over the maintainer position to me? I would be very happy if the update makes it into the bullseye release. Since your package is the base for my package [3], I am hanging in the air ... Many greetings, Matthias Klein [1]: https://gitlab.iqrf.org/open-source/iqrf-gateway-daemon-utils/paho.mqtt.c [2]: https://mentors.debian.net/package/paho.mqtt.c/ [3]: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=978673
Re: config file name and format change

This is one of the use cases I had in mind when I designed cme and Config::Model. cme can be used to convert the old configuration to the new format. This requires: - a model for ser2net configuration that matches the structure of the new yaml format - a reader backend that can parse old file I can help on these 2 topics which should not take more than 1 or 2 hours. I would also need to create a subcommand for cme to migrate configuration data from the old format to the new one. (I was actually waiting for a real life use case to do this). Once this is done, on top of the conversion tool, you also get for free: - a tool to check the validity of the configuration (like 'cme check dpkg') - a GUI for ser2net configuration. (like 'cme edit dpkg') Note that this cannot be done in time for buster release. Is this something you would be interested in ? All the best Dod

package-supports-alternative-init-but-no-init.d-script, how to fix
Hi, For I: package-supports-alternative-init-but-no-init.d-script N: N: The package provides daemon, but contains no init.d script Packages N: that provide services (daemons), like cron daemon or web servers, must N: provide init.d script for starting that services with sysvinit. N: Optionally, packages can also provide integration with alternative N: init systems. N: N: Package in question provides integration with some alternative init N: system, but corresponding init.d script is absent. I have already provided it as per init-d-script(5), see https://github.com/suntong/dbab/blob/35a6193d7ae0cc785a9c6cf9135476dca21c102d/bin/dbab and my Makefile is installing it: https://github.com/suntong/dbab/blob/master/Makefile#L38 https://github.com/suntong/dbab/blob/35a6193d7ae0cc785a9c6cf9135476dca21c102d/Makefile#L38 What I'm missing?

Howto re-upload to debian-mentors
Hi Debian-Mentors, I am in the process of adopting the package geda-gaf. This is my first experience as a maintainer so I might be a little stubborn. After the first successful upload as "geda-gaf-1.10.2-1" some minor issues surfaced. When I tried to use dupload to upload the changes the utility just told me that all the packages were already there. It concluded "Nothing to upload". After I upped the version to "geda-gaf-1.10.2-2" the package uploaded fine. However, reviewers suggested to combine the two uploads into one. I found no way to directly overwrite or modify an upload. So I used the remove button on the projects page to remove the offending uploads. Afterwards, I uploaded my current local version as "geda-gaf-1.10.2-1". Unfortunately, comments by a reviewer were deleted in the process. The remarks were dealt with in the new upload, though. Can you confirm that this was the correct way to go ahead?

Re: Howto re-upload to debian-mentors
IIRC, you can upload with the same version # over and over to debian-mentors, without bumping version #. The overwriting is done automatically.

Next time I will do without temporary removal. I just discovered the -f option of dupload to force the upload. ---<)kaimartin(>--- -- Kai-Martin Knaak Email: k...@familieknaak.de Öffentlicher PGP-Schlüssel: https://keyserver.ubuntu.com/pks/lookup?op=index&search=0x7B0F9882 pgpgdtAs6p9Rk.pgp Description: OpenPGP digital signature
