Salsa respository
Hi, The repository for gtkterm for which I am maintainer, is sourced from my personal SALSA git environment. I want to migrate to a public SALSA repository but I dont have the rights to do that. Can somebody create the gtkterm repository and give me master rights to that repository? My username is wvdakker-guest. Thanks a lot! /Willem
Help packaging archi
Hi list, I am trying to package archi [1]. An editor for archimate models. Archi can be found here [2]. It is my first Java package. Archi is packaged with maven. So this is what I did until so far: - read Java Wiki [3] - read Java Packaging [4] - read MavenHelper [5] To me it look like I have to start with mh_make to build the files I need (maven rules and poms). Because mh_make only works with SVN I first created my own GIT repos and ran dh_make. Now I have the debian directory with appropriate files and can login to the git-pbuilder to run mh_make (I use git-pbuilder in unstable). Output I get: Checking the parent dependency in the sub project com.archimatetool.editor.feature/pom.xml In com.archimatetool.editor.fullscreen.macos/pom.xml: This plugin cannot be found in the Debian Maven repository. Ignore this plugin? org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-source-plugin:maven-plugin:0.25.0 In the maven-repos I see tycho-maven-plugin-0.25.0.pom. Dpkg and apt-files failes. dpkg --search /usr/share/maven-repo/org/eclipse/tycho/tycho- source-plugin/*/* apt-file search /usr/share/maven-repo/org/eclipse/tycho/tycho- source-plugin Then try to enter a substitution rule of the form s/groupId/newGroupId/ s/artifactId/newArtifactId/ jar s/version/newVersion/ here: Searching the maven-repo under the debian directory does not find a tycho-source-plugin. So where is it? And how to make a subsitution rule for it? (Running mh_make from testing is not possible because libtycho-java is not available there. So I have to run it within pbuilder chroot). /Willem [1] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=710262 [2] https://github.com/archimatetool/archi [3] https://wiki.debian.org/Java [4] https://wiki.debian.org/Java/Packaging [5] https://wiki.debian.org/Java/MavenDebianHelper [6] https://lists.debian.org/debian-java/2015/11/msg00030.html

Hi mentors, Can any of the mentors upload the package Jabberd2 for me to unstable? I tried to get it in, but previous uploaders are to busy or non responsive.

Uploading package(s). (was Version after patching)
Thanks, Is someone willing to upload the new version of the package? It close a bug. The package is here: git://anonscm.debian.org/pkg-xmpp/jabberd2.git if also possible upload this one. It removes a obsolete dependency git://anonscm.debian.org/pkg-xmpp/jabber-muc.git Thanks!

Version after patching
Hi, I have a package which have version 2.2.17-1. I applied a patch on the mainstream source code which closes a bug. Should the new version then be 2.2.17-2, or something else? The package is not yet in stable. Greetings, Willem
How to find which Java libs needed
Hi, I have a JAVA package using the ANT build suite. How can I find out which libraries are needed for compiling? I have solved a bunch but a few are to be found. Is there a easy way? Or is it a try and shoot method? This is my first Java package. So any help is appreciated. Greetings, Willem

If you run the jabber services on your server and publish the jabber-service into the DNS then you are visible to all other jabber users (incl. Gmail, as long it supports XMPP). You can talk to Apple and Windows users as long as they use a XMPP client (pidgin or so). greetings, WIllem
Why is it so hard to get sponsor (Part 2, was: RFS Jabberd2 / Jabber-muc)
Hi Members, Last February I mailed the list why some packages wont get a sponsor. I got a few reactions of sponsors who helped me to get the package into decent shape. But at the end no sponsor would have time or experience with the package to upload it. The jabber packages are obvious a strange thing, scaring mentors away ;) This is my second try to ITA a package. A few years earlier I tried to get a sponsor for Scid (chess) and also nobody was interested (?) in supporting the upload. The XMPP group is non responsive, the previous Jabber maintainer also. I like the Debian distribution and I am willing to help and support it. At this moment I have a few ITA and ITP bugs. I find it very disappointing that for the second time I cannot manage to get some packages in. I read a lot mailings about the bad shape some packages are in. But if newcomers dont have a chance (well not everyone ;)) to adopt packages then the packages will stay in bad shape. Why is it so hard to get sponsor and why is there nobody who tries to support the jabber uploads ;) Greetings, Willem On Fri, 2013-06-07 at 07:01 +0200, W. van den Akker wrote: > Hi Mentors, > > Last months I was working with Cleto Martin to get Jabberd2 and > Jabber-muc into good shape for uploading it. > Now the packages are in good shape and I need a mentor to support me > for uploading and maintaining it. > Cleto does not have enough feeling with Jabber* to support me. > > I tried to get in contact with the XMPP group.

Request for support Jabberd2 / Jabber-muc
Hi Mentors, Last months I was working with Cleto Martin to get Jabberd2 and Jabber-muc into good shape for uploading it. Now the packages are in good shape and I need a mentor to support me for uploading and maintaining it. Cleto does not have enough feeling with Jabber* to support me. I tried to get in contact with the XMPP group. However it is not a real group but more a general email address so I dont get any response from them since december last year. I am using Jabber* for about 8 months. It is running on a production server without any problems. I am in contact with upstream (mostly for jabberd2) to get things fixed, if needed. So I need a mentor to get the packages into unstable and guide me if there are any issues that I cannot fix myself. The packages can be found in the git respository: Jabberd2: git://git.debian.org/git/pkg-xmpp/jabberd2 Jabber-muc: git://git.debian.org/git/pkg-xmpp/jabber-muc I hope to get support :) Thanks, Willem vdAkker signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

It builds these binary packages: scid - chess database with play and training functionality The package appears to be lintian clean. The upload would fix these bugs: 465788, 487771 The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/scid - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free - dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/scid/scid_3.7.3-1.dsc I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me. I have contacted the previous maintainer (see also #487771). He agreed that I may continue maintaining the package for Debian. Since the previous upload (aug-08) I have made massive changes in the build proces after some feedback from (Sandro Tosi). One thing I cannot resolve. I cant get in my full name because the key is not known then :( Kind regards W. van den Akker -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: RFS: scid (updated package).
Dear mentors, I have updated the package and would friendly ask if somebody would sponsor the package. I have added some message where it shows that its 'legal' to upload my package. I hope somebody will sponsor it. After a half year the old maintainer has handed over the package to me. Now follows the final message where the maintainer says he has no problem with it. > On Thu, Oct 23, 2008 at 10:23 PM, Christoph Berg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> Hi Peter, >> >> it's been a while since I was contacting you about your packages in >> February 2006, but unfortunately, the packages appeared again on the >> QA radar, mostly because Willem is has been trying to contact you to >> get the scid package updated. > > You're right.

RFS: scid (updated package). Just check not upload.
Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 3.6.26-1 of my package "scid". But before this can be uploaded I have to wait for a orphan confirmation from QA. This will be the end of next week. Before that time I would appreciate it if somebody would check the package on errors or give me some other tips to improve it and make the package ready to upload if I get the green light. It builds these binary packages: scid - chess database The package appears to be lintian clean. The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/scid - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free - dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/scid/scid_3.6.26-1.dsc I would be glad if someone can check this package for me.

No response from MIA
Hi, I am trying to get the maintainership for a package (SCID, et al). Therefore I first in may contacted the original maintainer. But he didnt reply. And also after a second mail in june I got no response. After that I contacted QA ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), first in august second time in september. Strangly enough I got no reply from them either. How do I proceed? Any suggestions? greetings, Willem -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

It works with Scid. There is a note how to install it on scid, there is also a patch for Xboard. I contacted the maintainer, but no reply yet. It doesnt support crafty out of the box because DGT needs a GUI to work. greetings, Willem -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: Prospective package - Redmine #478741
Hello Richard, I would suggest to read the New Maintainers' Guide (http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide). First its important to ensure that Redmine is not conflicting with the Debian Free Software Guidelines (DFSG). See 2.1 of the DFSG. If its not conflicting you can send a ITP (Intent To Package) message so that everyone knows you are working on the package. After that play and enjoy to create the package. I hope I havent forget anything. I am also just a beginning package builder. gr, Willem On Tuesday 08 July 2008, Richard Hurt wrote: > I would like to assist in the packaging of the Redmine Project > Management system.

The upload would fix these bugs: 465788, 487771 The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/scid - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free - dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/scid/scid_3.6.24-1.1.dsc I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me. Kind regards W. van den akker This packages was previosly uploaded as scid2. But after contacting the upstream maintainer I decided to rename it to its original name scid. These are the comments I got on the scid2 package. Which has all been fixed.

Your upload does not fix the scid package. I renamed the scid2 package to scid because its in fact a continuation of the scid package.

Scid is included but not updated after Scid was forked. No other replacement exists. The package it rather straight forward. I have only a few licenced components stripped. gr, Willem. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

RFS: Scid and TeXSkak
Hi mentors, I would like to be a future maintainer for serveral packages. Two packages which I use are rather out-dated in the Debian distribution. The previous owner of the Scid package has stopped the development. Scid is now being developed by other people. However the current version in Debian is not updated. I would like to upload an updated version Scid (I named it Scid2 because the original Scid is stopped). The current Debian maintainer has no problem with the fact that I take over the Scid (and latter TexSkak) package. Which of you mentors would like to check and upload the package and help me to become a Debian maintainer. Best regards, Willem -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
