Bug#1034049: RFS: wxmaxima/23.04.0-1 -- GUI for the computer algebra system Maxima

[Gunter Königsmann]

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "wxmaxima":

 * Package name : wxmaxima
   Version  : 23.04.0-1
   Upstream contact : Gunter Königsmann 
 * URL  :http://wxmaxima-developers.github.io/wxmaxima/
 * License  : GPL-2, CC0-1.0, public-domain
 * Vcs  :https://github.com/wxMaxima-developers/wxmaxima
   Section  : math

The source builds the following binary packages:

  wxmaxima - GUI for the computer algebra system Maxima

what wxMaxima does do is: It is a quite featureful UI that allows to use 
maxima, the
computer algebra system. It displays the maths as nice 2d equations, converts 
them
to SVG or PNG, if requested, generates animated plots.
A sample wxMaxima session [as 1D maths] would be:

(%i1)   a*x+b*x^2+c=3;
(%o1)   b*x^2+a*x+c=3
(%i2)   solve(%,x);
(%o2)   [x=-(sqrt(-4*b*c+12*b+a^2)+a)/(2*b),x=(sqrt(-4*b*c+12*b+a^2)-a)/(2*b)]

Dear mentors,

I received a mail that wxMaxima is about to be removed from debian if I 
don't switch to the newest wxWidgets version =>

Am looking for a sponsor for the new version of my package "wxmaxima" that
besides support for the newest version of wxWidgets comes with 
improved wizards and a all-new integrated help browser:

 * Package name : wxmaxima

   Section  : math

The source builds the following binary packages:

  wxmaxima - GUI for the computer algebra system Maxima

What wxMaxima does:

  wxMaxima is a quite complete GUI for maxima that does goth numeric
  calculations with arbitrary-size floats, integers and rational numbers
  (sqrt(2)*%pi/7 or similar). But its main goal is symbolic calculations 
  like the following:

  (%i1) a^2+b^2=sin(c);
  (%o1) b^2+a^2=sin(c)
  (%i2) solve(%,c);
  solve: using arc-trig functions to get a solution.
  
  Some solutions will be lost.
  
  (%o2) [c=asin(b^2+a^2)]

Wow... ...might that be a missing runtime dependency in the xvfb-run

Included it in the build description, now.

Sorry that this fix needed more time: I have decided that a privacy
issue justifies a new upstream release

=> updated wxMaxima 20.12.1-1 to debian mentors and deleted wxMaxima
20.12.0-1. Do I now need to modify this bug somehow to reflect the change?

Thanks a lot in advance,

and kind regards,

If you want to know what wxMaxima actually is: It is a fast and feature-full

a computer algebra system that is able to do all numeric calculations you would 
expect from a 
mathematics program, but additionally is specializedd in not finding a number, 
that solves a problem
but in finding an equation that does so (and hopefully explains what the 
solution is all about):


(%i1)   pyth: a^2+b^2=c^2;
(%o1)   b^2+a^2=c^2

(%i2)   solve(pyth,a);
(%o2)   [a=-sqrt(c^2-b^2),a=sqrt(c^2-b^2)]

(%i3)   %[1];
(%o3)   a=-sqrt(c^2-b^2)

(%i4)   subst([c=1,b=4],%);

Bug#941440: RFS: wxmaxima/19.09.1-1 -- GUI for the computer algebra system Maxima

[Gunter Königsmann]

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "wxmaxima"

 * Package name: wxmaxima
   Version : 19.09.1-1
   Upstream Author : Gunter Königsmann 
 * URL : http://wxmaxima-developers.github.io/wxmaxima/
 * License : GPL-2
 * Vcs : https://github.com/wxMaxima-developers/wxmaxima
   Section : math

It builds those binary packages:

  wxmaxima - GUI for the computer algebra system Maxima

Maxima is a cool program as it does solve mathematical problems but unlike 
other programs tries to find an equation
that provides a general solution, not only a number that solves this special 
case:

(%i1)   eq1:x^2+x-3=y;
(eq1)   x^2+x-3=y
(%i2)   solve(%,x);
(%o2)   [x=-(sqrt(4*y+13)+1)/2,x=(sqrt(4*y+13)-1)/2]

Maxima now comes as a pure command-line utility. wxMaxima is a graphical 
front-end that provides maxima with 2d
Equations, can render these as Bitmap/MathJaX/SVG/EMF/RTF and contains a 
comfortable editor including an undo 
function, many wizards and the ability to embed text, sectioning and graphics 
into the worksheet.

To access further information about this package, please visit the following 
URL:

  https://mentors.debian.net/package/wxmaxima

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

  dget -x 
https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/w/wxmaxima/wxmaxima_19.09.1-1.dsc

Changes since the last upload:

   * A new upstream version
   * The debian package now uses GTK3
   * Bumped the standards version to 3.9.8
   * New build depends for the automatic tests: netcat-openbsd, xvfb,
 debian-file-utils and appstream-util


The new Upstream version might be important for a smooth user experience, this 
time, as wxMaxima makes intensive use 
of (many? most?) of the funktionalities wxWidgets offers and the GTK3 
transition of debian seems to have triggered 
many bugs that have not yet been reported against the package wxMaxima - but 
did affect me causing me to work around 
them and to upstream the solutions before creating the release.

wxMaxima is a graphical front-end for maxima, a powerful and free Computer 
Algebra System that is 
specialized in finding an equation that solves a mathematical problem, not just 
a number.
One example would be:

(%i2)   solve(eq1,x);
(%o2)   
[x=((-1)/2-(sqrt(3)*%i)/2)*(sqrt(c*(27*b^2*c-4*a^3))/(2*3^(3/2)*b^2)+c/(2*b)+((-1)*a^3)/(27*b^3))^(1/3)+
(((sqrt(3)*%i)/2+(-1)/2)*a^2)/(9*b^2*(sqrt(c*(27*b^2*c-4*a^3))/(2*3^(3/2)*b^2)+c/(2*b)+((-1)*a^3)/(27*b^3))^(1/3))+((-1)*a)/(3*b),x=((sqrt(3)*%i)/2+(-1)/2)*
(sqrt(c*(27*b^2*c-4*a^3))/(2*3^(3/2)*b^2)+c/(2*b)+((-1)*a^3)/(27*b^3))^(1/3)+(((-1)/2-(sqrt(3)*%i)/2)*a^2)/(9*b^2*(sqrt(c*(27*b^2*c-4*a^3))/(2*3^(3/2)*b^2)+c/(2*b)+((-1)*a^3)/(27*b^3))^(1/3))+((-1)*a)/(3*b),
x=(sqrt(c*(27*b^2*c-4*a^3))/(2*3^(3/2)*b^2)+c/(2*b)+((-1)*a^3)/(27*b^3))^(1/3)+a^2/(9*b^2*(sqrt(c*(27*b^2*c-4*a^3))/(2*3^(3/2)*b^2)+c/(2*b)+((-1)*a^3)/(27*b^3))^(1/3))+
((-1)*a)/(3*b)]

Maxima can solve numerical problems, too, though, using floating-point numbers 
(both double floats 
and arbitrary-resolution floats) or rational numbers (fractions of arbitrary 
size integers), if needed.

More information about wxmaxima can be obtained from 
http://wxmaxima-developers.github.io/wxmaxima/.

Changes since the last upload:

  Mainly switched to a new upstream version for which several 100 bugs were 
fixed.

No reply on uploading wxMaxima-18.12.0-1

[Gunter Königsmann]

Dear all,

I have uploaded the new version to wxMaxima to mentors today. At least
dput did tell me that the upload succeeded, but it never appeared on
mentors.debian.net. Also I didn't receive the info that the package is
uploaded.

A while later it seemed to have disappeared from there: dupload was able
to upload it again.

Since then there was no answer. A try to reupload the program yields
"403 forbidden".

Other programs seem to have succeeded uploading in the same timeframe =>
Don't know if I did anything that causes some process on the server to
block/crash. But thought I'd better write you.

A copy of the package whose source I tried to upload can be found here:

We found a windows-only bug and have used that as an excuse to release
an all-new version of wxMaxima that resolves the line-endings problem,
as well. I've also resolved a few lintian-pedantic and -experimental
warnings; The new package has already been processed by the debian
mentors servers whilst I wrote this mail.

Kind regards,

Seems like the internet did work after all => the corrected file is now
live at https://mentors.debian.net/package/wxmaxima

I've also

 - upstreamed the fix

 - added gitattribute files to the .git repo that will prevent this from
happening again

 - and added the fix to the release branch so if we make a service
release we can drop the patch again.

Thanks again,

and kind regards,

Wentthrough the files. As far can see exactly 126 lines of Text were
affected => I have prepared a patch and now hope that my network
connection allows me to upload the repaired package to mentors.

Thanks a lot for having found this!

Hmmm...

...the Desktop File I can correct using a patch. But if it is many files 
perhaps a new upstream release is the only answer.

What is your opinion?

wxMaxima is a full-featured (and quite fast) graphical user interface for 
maxima, a program 
that is specialized in symbolics math but that can do dloating-point 
calculations (either 
with native floats or arbitrary-length floating-point numbers) or with 
arbitrary-length
rational numbers. A sample session would be:

(%i2)   eq:x^3+5*x+7=4;
(eq)x^3+5*x+7=4
(%i3)   solve(eq,x);
(%o3)   
[x=(sqrt(743)/(2*3^(3/2))-3/2)^(1/3)*((-1)/2-(sqrt(3)*%i)/2)-(5*((sqrt(3)*%i)/2+(-1)/2))/(3*(sqrt(743)/(2*3^(3/2))-3/2)^(1/3)),x=(sqrt(743)/(2*3^(3/2))-3/2)^(1/3)*((sqrt(3)*%i)/2+(-1)/2)-(5*((-1)/2-(sqrt(3)*%i)/2))/(3*(sqrt(743)/(2*3^(3/2))-3/2)^(1/3)),x=(sqrt(743)/(2*3^(3/2))-3/2)^(1/3)-5/(3*(sqrt(743)/(2*3^(3/2))-3/2)^(1/3))]
(%i4)   float(%);

answered.
  * A menu item that sets the autosubscript feature for the current worksheet.
  * A menu allowing to switch floats to engineering format.
  * Maxima can now pass the values of variables to wxMaxima.
  * Autocompletion for functions from lisp-only packages and for all of 
maxima's.
built in functions.
  * A context-sensitive "draw" sidepane.
  * We now allow a packet from Maxima to end in the middle of an unicode 
codepoint.
  * If the name of a lisp function is known it now is displayed.
  * A right-click menu that copies an animation to the clipboard.
  * A new default value for the current MathJaX release.
  * A "recent packages" menu for packages loaded from load() or from the menu.
  * Advertise the current file and the file's state to the Operating System
  * Copy as Enhanced Metafile (Windows only).
  * Code simplifications.

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "wxmaxima"

 * Package name: wxmaxima

 * URL : http://andrejv.github.io/

   Section : math

It builds those binary packages:

  wxmaxima   - GUI for the computer algebra system Maxima

wxMaxima is a powerful graphical front-end for maxima, a Computer
Algebra System,
in other words: For a program that does actually calculate symbolically
instead of
with numbers. Even if it supports calculating with floating-point (using the
numerical coprocessor or floats with a user-specified precision), exact
rational
numbers (arbitrary length integers, roots and fractions), if needed.

One example:

(%i1)   tst: a^2+b^2=c^2;
(tst)   b^2+a^2=c^2
(%i2)   sol:solve(tst,a);
(sol)   [a=-sqrt(c^2-b^2),a=sqrt(c^2-b^2)]
(%i3)   integrate(sol,b);
(%o3)
[a*b=-(c^2*asin(b/abs(c)))/2-(b*sqrt(c^2-b^2))/2+%c1,a*b=(c^2*asin(b/abs(c)))/2+(b*sqrt(c^2-b^2))/2+%c2]

The current version incorporates a drastic speed boost, mouseover
tooltips for
the more exotic of maxima's error messages, support to export 2D maths
as DVG,
Literally hundreds of bug-fixes, antialiassing for lines...
A longer changeLog for the new upstream release reads:

  * Jump to the char containing the error on encountering unmatched
parenthesis.
  * Try to place the cursor near the error in all other cases.
  * Attempt to mark the whole error message in red. This is bound to fail in
some cases as maxima sometimes only sends part of an error message
through
the error() command. But it is better than nothing.
  * Detect and mark most warnings.
  * A "evaluate cells below" right-click-menu item.
  * Autosave now even works for unsaved documents adding them to the
"recent documents" list if needed.
  * Big parenthesis are now drawn using unicode characters, if available.
  * Nicer integral, Product and Sum signs, optionally including
antialiassing
even if no font provides them.
  * MouseOver tooltips for some of the more exotic worksheet items.
  * A "Copy as svg" function that is as good as wxSVGFileDc allows us to be.
  * Worksheet objects now can provide their own ToolTips.
  * Config Dialogue: An editor for the startup file.
  * It is now possible to select which formats "Ctrl+C" should place data on
the clipboard in.
  * Now multiple animations can run concurrently and can be told to
autostart.
  * A menu entry that allows to select 1D and ASCII Art Maths
  * Recent files that currently don't exist are grayed out now.
  * A command-line switch that triggers evaluation on startup of wxMaxima
  * Many Bug Fixes and Performance improvements.

The debian package is lintian-clean on my computer.
Unfortunately on mentors.debian.net both my watch file and the one
from the uscan manpage/https://wiki.debian.org/debian/watch#GitHub
seem not to work => I would appreciate any help in this point.

Changes since the last upload:

  * New upstream release with many new features, bugfixes and performance

  * Switched the build system to cmake replacing the dependency to

by the dependency to cmake.
  * Bumped the standards version to 3.9.8
  * debian/rules: Cleaned up override_dh_auto_build and
override_dh_auto_install
  * debian/control: wxMaxima doesn't depend on a specific version of
maxima and
maxima-doc.
  * debian/control: There is a good fallback for a missing fonts-jsmath.
maxima-doc isn't necessary for running wxMaxima and the type of pdf
animations texlive-latex-extra was needed for are no more
supported by any major pdf viewer => Changed these packages to
"suggested".
  * debian/control: Dropped the dependency to ImageMagick, perl and texinfo
which are no more used.
  * debian/copyright: wxmathml.lisp has been replaced by wxmathml.lisp.in
  * debian/watch: github is the new project location.
  *  Tried to make the watch file work again.
  * Dropped all patches as they were upstreamed.

Changes since the last upload:

The current version of wxMaxima scaled down plots to thumbnail size
before showing them as part of the worksheet - which made plots embedded
in the worksheet nearly unusable => Added a patch that causes them to be
reasonably-sized again.

Re: Problem backporting libhmsbeagle

[Gunter Königsmann]

Even if these code lines would work they probably should be reformulated by 
upstream so they are easier to read:

++i assigns I the value I+1 and returns the new i. And then i is assigned 
another new value by the i= in the same line...

...a better way to express what I believe the line should mean would be:

++i;
i &= 3;

Perhaps the c compiler is as unsure which assignment should have the precedence 
as I am.

Kind regards,

  Gunter.

Bug#819899: RFS: wxmaxima/16.04.0-1

[Gunter Königsmann]

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "wxmaxima"

* Package name: wxmaxima
  Version : 16.04.0-1
  Upstream Author : Andrej Vodopivec 
* URL : wxmaxima.sourceforge.net
* License : GPL
  Section : math

wxMaxima is a quite powerful graphical front-end for maxima, an even
more powerful computer algebra system that is specialized in finding an
equation solving a problem except of a bunch of numbers that does do so.
One simple example would be:

(%i3) solve(a^2+b^2=c^2,a);
(%o3) [a = -sqrt(c^2-b^2),a = sqrt(c^2-b^2)]

The current version of wxMaxima seems not to fix any bugs reported to
debian but closes > 300 bug reports on wxMaxima's bug tracker including
many ways to crash the program and the fact that printing didn't work.
It also provides many new features and perfomance improvements and
automatically repairs broken files wxMaxima 13.04 generated when the
 key was hit right before saving the file.

A somehow more detailed ChangeLog would be:

  * A TeX-like subscript notation: A_1 is now by default shown as an A with
an 1 as subscript
  * High-quality icons for high-dpi screens.
  * Some broken .wxmx files generated with wxMaxima 13.04 and older will now
automatically be repaired
  * Tried to make communication with maxima more stable
  * Debug: A monitor for the xml communication between maxima and wxMaxima
  * Leading White-space in front of a character that has to be escaped in
XML is no more ignored.
  * jpeg-encoded images are now no more converted to much larger png files
on saving .wxmx files and on exporting.
  * Images will now actually be converted to the target format.
  * Bumped the minor version of the .wxmx format: Some old versions of
wxmaxima will replace .jpg files embedded in .wxmx files by a
placeholder on load
  * Increased both speed and memory-efficiency of image handling
  * Save the zoom factor at exit and reload it on opening a new file
  * An option that makes wxMaxima use user-defined labels instead of %o
where an
user-defined label exists. Works well together with unchecking the
"export code cells" config item.
  * A separate text style for user-defined labels.
  * The "evaluate all cells" and "evaluate till here" now start with a fresh
instance of maxima
  * TeX export now should work with most unicode chars we have ESC sequences
for.
  * An auto-repair functionality that repairs most .wxmx files wxMaxima
13.04
was not able to open again.
  * A few new ESC sequences and markdown commands.
  * "#" now is shown as a "not equal" sign as a "not equal" sign already
would
be interpreted as "#".
  * Teach CCL on Windows how to deal with unicode variable names like
ü and α. For SBCL the necessary change has been done on the maxima side.
  * Sidebars for symbols
  * Printing text cells now works again
  * The  key now works as a shortcut that closes the search dialogue.
  * A copy-to-MathML feature
  * Many bug, usability and performance fixes
  * Most importantly: If it is a cursor it now blinks.


Thanks a lot,
and kind regards,

 Gunter.

wxMaxima is a full-featured graphical user interface for maxima, a 
computer algebra system (cas).
Computer algebra systems allow to do any kind of maths with a computer 
in a comfortable way. This includes all calculations that one would 
expect from a computer and that result in a number. Maxima is 
especially well-equipped for this task: Besides the floats the 
processor hardware can handle it allows to use arbitrary-length 
floating-point numbers and exact fractions of numbers whose size is 
only limited by the computer's memory. But the thing a cas is 
specialized in is actually finding the equation that solves a problem. 
One simple example would be:


(%i7) solve(b^2+a^2 = c^2,b);
(%o7) [b = -sqrt(c^2-a^2),b = sqrt(c^2-a^2)]

But maxima will try to find a equation that solves a differential 
equation or a differential, as well.



More information about wxMaxima can be obtained from 
http://wxmaxima.sourceforge.net.


The only change since the last upload on the debian specific side is an 
updated ChangeLog entry.


In the code there have been loads of enhancements, though:
 * Most important is that this package now is compatible with maxima 
5.37.0

 * Syntax highlighting in code cells
 * MathJAX now provides scaleable equations and extended drag-and-drop 
for the html export.

 * The table-of-contents-sidebar now shows the current cursor position
 * Fixed a few instances of cursors jumping out of the screen
 * Fixed a few instances of cursors jumping to the beginning or end of 
the worksheet
 * Better detection which cell maxima is processing and if it still is 
doing so

 * Regression: Hiding the toolbar didn't work on some systems
 * Markdown support for <=, >=, <=>, <-, ->, <->, => and +/- symbols.
 * An option to not export maxima's input as well as the output.
 * An option to use High-resolution bitmaps for the HTML export.
 * Images that are too big for the window now are displayed in a 
scaled-down version.

 * Fixed the support for out-of-tree-bulds that was broken in 15.04
 * Meaningful ALT texts for the HTML export to provide accessibility
 * An option to include the .wxmx file in the .html export
 * Performance fixes that are espectionally effective for MSW
 * Unification of some platform-specific code
 * bash autocompletion
 * A fourth sectioning level
 * Made entering uppercase greek letters easier and documented how to 
input special

unicode symbols
 * Automatic highlighting of text equal to the currrently selected one.
 * A batch mode that pauses evaluation if maxima asks a question.
 * A "halt on error" feature
 * Now evaluation of a new command is only triggered if evaluation of 
the last
command has finished. This means that output from maxima is always 
appended

to the right cell.
 * Un-broke error and question handling for multiple commands per 
cell. Sincewe now send
maxima's input command-per-command this means a cell with multiple 
commands is no

more evaluated faster than multiple cells with single commands each.
 * If ever a end-of-evaluation marker gets lost there is a new 
"trigger evaluation"

menu entry in the maxima menu.
 * On wxGtk autocompletion was replaced by a content assistant that is 
based on the

surprisingly powerful autocompletion feature.
 * Ctrl+Tab now launches the autocompletion (or content assistant, if 
available)

 * Tab and Shift+Tab now indent and unindent regions.
 * Ctrl+Mouse wheel and Ctrl++/- now zoom in and out of the worksheet.
 * Allow Extending selection from part of a single cell to multiple 
cells.

 * An Autoindent functionality.

Bug#791697: RFS: wxmaxima/15.04.0-1

[Gunter Königsmann]

No need to open a new RFS bug report if your last one was mistakenly
closed by someone else; please reopen the old bug instead
(instructions at [1]). I've done that and merged the two bug reports
together already.

Thanks a lot!
Was not entirely sure if it was closed by an accident or if this was 
common practice so I only made one half-hearted attempt to reopen the 
bug. When this failed I hoped you would be kind enough to help me if I 
created more chaos than intended - which you were. Thanks again for 
this.


Your package looks ok, but I noticed that you reverted back to
recommending ttf-jsmath instead of fonts-jsmath. Is that intentional
(and why)?
The question I ask myself is: how did I do this? Normally I try to use 
a workflow that prevents this kind of thing from happening.


Anyway:
- Corrected the dependency once again
- Did upload the corrected package to debian mentors
- and will press on the send button as soon as the package reappears 
there.


Thanks a lot,
and kind regards,

 Gunter.

Bug#791390: RFS: wxmaxima/15.04.0-1

[Gunter Königsmann]

Dear Vincent,

Thanks to your help this will be my first really professional debian 
package:


- d/changelog: please wrap lines to 80 chars (IIRC lintian has a
check for this, not sure why it's not being triggered here),

Done.

and
there's a duplicate debian/copyright: The tango icons have been
released to the public domain entry in there.

Done.

- I can't seem to fetch a tarball directly from upstream using either
your get-orig-source target or uscan directly (I check this when
sponsoring packages to ensure that the tarball on mentors is identical
to the tarball distributed upstream):

Thanks a lot! Didn't know about this command, but made it work.

Did try to upload the package to debian mentors under the same version 
number as the old one (hope this was a good idea) but did forget to 
remove the old one first = will retry uploading it when the server has 
sorted my mistake out.


Thanks a lot, and kind regards,

Gunter.

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package wxmaxima

* Package name : wxmaxima
 Version : 15.04.0-1
 Upstream Author : Andrej Vodopivec andrej.vodopi...@gmail.com
* URL : http://andrejv.github.io/wxmaxima/
* License : GPL-2+

More detailed information about the package:

What is wxMaxima?
wxMaxima is a powerful graphical user interface for maxima, a program 
that is specialized in finding symbolic solutions for mathematical 
problems (which means it actually tries to find the formula that solves 
a problem, not the number the formula would result in).

A simple example what it can do would be:
 - a^2+b^2=c^2;
 - solve(%,c);
  [c=-sqrt(b^2+a^2),c=sqrt(b^2+a^2)]
But it can find a formula that solves many types of differential 
equations, too:

 - dgl:diff(diff(x(t),t),t)=-x(t);
 - desolve(dgl,x(t));
 x(t)=sin(t)*(at('diff(x(t),t,1),t=0))+x(0)*cos(t)
The actual output on the screen is much nicer, naturally, since the 
equations are displayed in 2D there.
It is to notice, though, that wxMaxima can be used for numerical work, 
too: It supports calculating with ordinary floating-point numbers if 
one requests this - but it will happily use arbitrary-precision numbers 
by default, exact fractions or bigfloat with a user-specified precision 
that is only limited by the amount of memory that is available.


Why does the package need to be updated?
The version currently packaged with debian (13.04) is over two years 
old. Moreover this old version has many bugs:
- In some locales many keys (for example in germany all hotkeys) 
didn't work in 13.04

- In version 13.04 drag-and drops drops about half of the parenthesis
- 13.04 crashes if it has to display sometimes not-too-complicated 
equations or if the save button is pressed while the program is 
calculating
Also the old version currently packaged with debian still doesn't come 
with a manual, has only a limited undo functionality and in many places 
is rather slow. A longer list of enhancements can be found at 
https://github.com/andrejv/wxmaxima/blob/master/ChangeLog


The package is lintian-free. Currently it is marked as orphaned. But 
I am willing to package new versions and upload them to 
mentors.debian.org on a regular basis. This is needed, too, since the 
next version, once released, will have a pack of features new, too 
including higher processing speed and syntax highlighting.

Dear Vincent,

Cool! And thanks a lot!
Now I know why it is always said to be hard to find a sponsor: 
Reviewing packages looks like being extremely hard work to me.


Today when I woke up the first thing I did (after saying good morning 
to the guinea pigs) was fixing the package. The new version should be 
available at debian mentors again.


Thanks again,

Bug#782738: Update of the package

[Gunter Königsmann]

I just have updated the package wxMaxima as the last upstream release 
has been updated (without a change in the version number).


The old changelog of the release read:

 * wxWidgets 3.0 is now a mandatory requirement
 * Various bugfixes
 * Loads of stability and performance fixes
 * Adjustable framerate for animations
 * A version-control friendly flavour of the wxmx format
 * A mimetype marker at the beginning of wxmx files
 * Better desktop integration
 * An offline manual
 * Autodetection of maxima's working directory on Mac and Windows
 * Use gnuplot_postamble instead of gnuplot_preamble
 * Dropped the hard dependency of TeXinfo
 * Translation updates
 * LaTeX: Use centered dots for multiplications
 * LaTeX: Added an option to select if superscripts should be
   placed above or after subscripts
 * LaTeX: Allow the user to add additional commands to the preamble.
 * Export of animations to pdf (via a pdfTeX file run) and html
 * Now complex conjugates are drawn as overstrike text.
 * bumped the minor version number of .wxmx: overstrike text is
   a new feature and therefore a file containing it cannot be read by
   old wxMaxima versions.
 * An autosave functionality that makes maxima work more like a mobile
   app whose documents are always saved.
 * A table-of-contents pane for faster navigation
 * It is now possible to scroll away from a running evaluation for
   arbitrary lengths of time and to choose to follow the evaluation
   process again.
 * Now TeX scales down images that are obviously too big for the page.
 * An undo for cell deletes and for adding cells.
 * Autocompletion for units from ezUnits


The new re-release addresses a windows-only bug and fixes the 
long-standing problem that the cursor sometimes instead of moving down 
jumped to the beginning of the worksheet.


Kind regards,

   Gunter.

it is the only surround recorder with built-in microphones at radio 
shack.
It can be used as a sound card, but has an SD card slot and batteries 
that last for about
15 hours - and records instead of one surround file two wav files: One 
for the front and

one for the back channels.
Since I didn't find a tool that combines them again to a surround file 
I wrote such a thing.

Ok, I wouldn't bother much about the above, but one thing does stop me from

version number!?
Never found out what the version number ought to be.

0.9.1-1 sounds exactly right. Thanks for that, too!



This is explained in full detail in the Debian Policy [1].

Hope this helps,

[1] http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Version



Did try to change the version number to 0.9.1-1 - which sounded great 
for a non-native debian package. But this meant running into all kinds 
of warnings. (debuild claims my native package has a version number that 
contains a dash!)


As far as I understand the Debian Policy states that if a package is 
deemed to be native depends on the version number. But it seems like 
there has to be another criterion, too.


Do you know what this criterion would be?

I did try to read the Policy and experimented for a long time before 
another urgent project started keeping me constantly busy for months - 
so this time I have to say sorry for the delay.


In the meantime parts of the Debian Policy has changed and I have 
altered the package again as to no more get lintian or other warnings 
except that I have the wrong version number. As soon as the version 
number is fixed I can upload the package again with the new standards 
version and all.


Thanks a lot,

 - It sounds weird that gnome-common is needed to build a command-line utility
   for ogg files!?
Will fix that before re-uploading the file: The only thing I did use
from this package was the autogen.sh from gnome.
 
 Please address these issues and re-upload.
 
Will upload the package as soon as you tell me which format the
copyright information in the source files has to be in.

Kind regards,

 Gunter.

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package oggfix.

* Package name: oggfix
  Version : 0.9.0
  Upstream Author : Gunter Königsmann
* URL : http://launchpad.net/oggfix
* License : GPL V3+
  Section : sound

It builds these binary packages:
oggfix - Command-line-utility that fixes broken ogg vorbis files

The package appears to be lintian clean.

My motivation for maintaining this package is: Problems with broken ogg
files nobody seemed to offer a solution for.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/o/oggfix
- - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
contrib
- - dget
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/o/oggfix/oggfix_0.9.0.dsc

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.

Kind regards
 Gunter Königsmann
