RFS: python-path
Hi all, I'm looking for a sponsor for the path module for python. The module was written by Jason Orendorff (http://www.jorendorff.com/articles/python/path/) and packaged by myself. I have made a few modifications to the original source. path is a very handy wrapper for the os.path module (as well as some of the methods in shutil). I have e-mailed Jason twice (on May 26th, and June 1st) to ask if he approves or not of me submitting the package and to give him my changes, but he hasn't replied, so I'm not sure what the proper course of action at this point is. The license on the module is completely unrestricted... Cheers, Chris signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

New package
Hi there, I've written a small program that I'd like to package and have included in the debian archive. It's a gnome applet that allows you to set alarms and then be notified when those alarms go off. I think I have all the debian/* files set up properly - I can generate a .deb file ok and lintian only complains about something that I'm not sure can be fixed: E: alarm-applet: file-in-usr-marked-as-conffile /usr/share/applets/Clocks/alarm_applet.desktop What is the next step for me? Getting this package sponsored? Thanks! Chris signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
Re: New package
Ok...So why does gnome-applets put stuff into /usr/share/applets? Or do those files not count as configuration files?

Re: New package
Ok, so if I just remove that .desktop file from the list of conffiles, everything will be fine? I put it in there because I noticed that the .gnorba file was automatically a conffile (I guess because it was put in /etc) and didn't see why the .desktop file would be any different.

Re: New package
If something optionally uses gnome, should the package include the .gnorba and .desktop files, or should a separate -gnome package be made?

New package, request for sponsor
Ok, I've fixed up my package a bit so that lintian doesn't complain about the conffiles anymore and I made the gnome support optional. I'd like somebody to sponsor this package so that I can get underway with becoming a new maintainer. What my package contains is a gtk based app that keeps track of a list of alarms and notifies you when one of the alarms expires. It was primarily written for use in the gnome panel but will now work on its own.

Re: New package
The reason I wrote the program was to have a convenient way of reminding me of simple things...Like when the laundry is going to be finished, water is boiling, etc. I'm a very forgetful person :) at alone isn't sufficient, as Matt mentioned. You can find the script up at: http://atlee.ca/alarm_applet It requires python-gtk and optionally python-gnome (I wrote it first as a panel applet, so the vanilla gtk interface still needs some work) It doesn't use at as a backend, although it could (should?). I didn't see why since I'd have to update the count down every second anyway.
