Is "#694703 RFP: unvanquished" unsful?

2015-02-10 Thread Sébastien Bertrand
Dear mentors,

I'm looking for a package that need help.

I found unvanquished, which in my opinion is a good game:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=694703

But there is already a debian package, which is not part of debian repository:
http://debs.unvanquished.net/unstable/

Is it useful to repackage it from sources?
Otherwise what should be done?

Thank in advance for any help,

Regards,
Sébastien Bertrand.

Bug#702492: RFS: anox/2.2-1

2013-03-07 Thread Sébastien Bertrand
Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "anox".

anoX aims to provide a simple and powerful way to run an application,
mainly games, in another X server. The goal is to bypass bugs such as
wine's windows disappearing when using Compiz or SDL-based games (like
Tremulous) preventing from switching between the game and the desktop.

  Package name: anox
  Version : 2.2-1
  Upstream Author : Sébastien Bertrand 
  URL : https://launchpad.net/anox
  License : GPL-3+
  Section : x11

It builds those binary packages:
  anox  - run an application in another X server

To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:
  http://mentors.debian.net/package/anox

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:
  dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/a/anox/anox_2.2-1.dsc

More information about hello can be obtained from http://www.example.com.
  https://launchpad.net/anox

Changes since the last upload:
* Now automatically select a free display and a virtual terminal
* Now use argparse to parse command-line
* Syntax improvments

I know that Testing migration has been frozen, but I would appreciate
any comment concerning the quality of my package or my program. I
would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.

Kind regards,
Sébastien Bertrand

Thanks, that's managed in the 2.1 with Popon.communicate().

Sébastien.

Hi,

Thank you for your interest.

>  - It's hardcoded to use "xinit -- :1 vt8".

I do not understand why this is a problem, the eight terminal should
just be free (it's more a limitation than a bug).

>  - It uses /tmp in an unsafe way (eg. predictable filename).  Please use

I can do that.

>   directories.

It handles complex command without problem.

Ok, I'm not sure to understand how to write the code, but I'll check that point.

>  - The package does not depend on anything providing ck-launch-session.

I should solve that.

Regards,
Sébastien.
