 Hi Simone,
 
 I'm packaging the new version of CxxTest and I'm facing this problem:
 the option
 --fog-parser of the main script can be used with Python 2.7 or with
 Python 2.6 plus
 ordereddict module. That python module is not yet part of Debian so the
 option can be used
 
 FWIW, there's already an ITP, a package on mentors.d.n and a RFS[1]. I
 CC'ed the maintainer just in case.

Hi all,

I think the package's still on mentors (if not, I can probably dig it
out). Because wheezy will use 2.7 and thus the package will be soon
obsolete, it was agreed at the time not to pursue further its inclusion in
Debian.

Cheers
Davide

RFS: python-ordereddict

2010-11-12 Thread Davide Cavalca
Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package python-ordereddict.

* Package name: python-ordereddict
  Version : 1.1-1
  Upstream Author : Raymond Hettinger
* URL : http://pypi.python.org/pypi/ordereddict/
* License : MIT
  Section : python

It builds these binary packages:
python-ordereddict - drop-in substitute for Py2.7's new
collections.OrderedDict

The package appears to be lintian clean.

The upload would fix these bugs: 603277

My motivation for maintaining this package is: some of the tools I use at
work
require this package. Plus, I've never packaged Python modules before, and
this
seems simple enough to start tackling them.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/python-ordereddict
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
main contrib non-free
- dget
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/python-ordereddict/python-ordereddict_1.1-1.dsc

This is my first Python package, I'd appreciate reviews or comments on it.
I
would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me. I'm CCing fEnIo,
who is
my usual sponsor for the GeeXboX packages, and the debian-python list.
Please
CC me on replies as I'm not subscribed to the list.

Kind regards
 Davide Cavalca

RFS: enna

2010-01-05 Thread Davide Cavalca
Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package enna.

* Package name: enna
  Version : 0.4.0-1
  Upstream Author : The Enna Project
* URL : http://enna.geexbox.org
* License : LGPL v2.1 or later
  Section : video

It builds these binary packages:
enna   - a powerful MediaCenter application based on EFL
enna-dbg   - debugging symbols for enna
enna-theme - data files for Enna, a MediaCenter application

The package appears to be lintian clean.

The upload would fix these bugs: 563528

My motivation for maintaining this package is:
I work with upstream on the GeeXboX project (http://geexbox.org) and would
like to package Enna for Debian and maintain it. Enna is a mediacenter
application based on EFL which aims to be lightweight and simple to use.
The current version allows the user to browse and play music and video
files, browse pictures and play photo slideshows, read comics and know the
current weather. Moreover, thanks to the use of libvalhalla, Enna is able
to build a database of all the available media files and can fetch
additional information from the Internet (such as covers, fan arts, movie
synopsis, etc.) to enrich the user experience. 

You can refer to our press release at
http://gxben.wordpress.com/2010/01/03/first-public-enna-0-4-0-release/ for
more details or visit http://enna.geexbox.org for a full list of features
and some cute screenshots.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/e/enna
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
main contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/e/enna/enna_0.4.0-1.dsc

Please note that Enna requires libplayer and libvalhalla (which itself
requires libnfo). These three packages are all on mentors awaiting for a
sponsor (I filed RFS for them a while ago but nobody replied).

libnfo (#560043):

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me. Even if you
aren't inclined to upload, any criticism is welcome.

Please CC me on any replies.

Kind regards
 Davide Cavalca

 Hello.

Hi,

 I'm really interested in these packages, and you can contact me
privately
 with future uploads. 
 I'm going to look into needed libraries first to make it possible to
upload
 enna.

Thank you Bartosz, I'm really glad that you're interested in Enna and
willing to help me get it into Debian.

 I should have some comments for at least one library today. Just wait
for
 mail from me ;)

Will do.
