Dear mentors,

So, dMagnetic is a Magnetic scrolls interpreter. It allows the owner of 
classic text
adventures such as "The Pawn", "The Guild of Thieves", "Fish!", 
"Jinxter", "Myth",
"Corruption" and "Wonderland" to play them, once more, but on modern 
hardware and
within a terminal window. The beautiful graphics are being rendered in 
glorious ANSI

Art, or even ASCII Art, ifpreferred.

The package itself is almost finished, it needs a little bit of advise 
from somebody

a little more experienced in creating packages.

Thus, if you are a SPONSOR, please please have a look at the project's 
website, which
can be found at http://www.dettus.net/dMagnetic. It would be a 
TREMENDOUS honor for
me to see my project in your repository. It would be a very good fit for 
Debian.

Hello.

Okay.

So, I removed the LICENSE.txt and README.txt from the debian/docs file.
I changed the compat from 12 to 9. Now the package can be build on my 
Ubuntu machine.


Now what?

To answer the biggest question: The game data is not freely

As for your question regarding the graphics: guild and pawn should run 
without the need to type in GRAPHICS to see some output. Could you 
send me the complete commandline you used?


Please also try running 'dMagnetic -mag guild.mag -gfx guild.gfx 
-vmode monochrome' If that does not work, there might be a bug. I 
usually change the .ini file to get the games running.


The debhelper thingie is something i will fix once i have access to a

Would you be my sponsor?

Hi!
First, the big question: is there are freely licensed data for this
interpreter? If not, the package will have to go into contrib rather 
than

main: it's a section for free stuff that requires non-free to function.

The package lacks build-depends on debhelper 12: you use compat 12 
yet have

"Build-Depends: debhelper (>=9)". Also, nowadays there's a better way to
express that: "Build-Depends: debhelper-compat (=12)".

The package installs LICENSE.txt (redundant with copyright) and 
README.txt

(redundant with the long desc of the package).

After having downloaded game data, I get no graphics. The command
"graphics" switches between text only and text + a line with lightgray
background + a lot of empty space. I've tried two games: "pawn" and
"guild", passing -gfx and -mag each time.

The .menu file is obsolete, most desktop environments don't support it
anymore, and those which do are hardly maintained.

What I actually need is somebody to give my package the final boost, to
get it into the offical Debian Build System, and hopefully, into the debian
package repository. My project is an awesome interpreter for Magnetic
Scrolls textadventures. They used pretty beautiful graphics back then, and
I always wanted to play them when I was a child.

With my interpreter, it is possible to play them in any terminal window,
even over SSH or on UART terminals. The graphcis are being rendered in
glorious ANSI Art, or even ASCII Art, if preferred.

Just look at the screenshots on my website http://www.dettus.net/dMagnetic.
Or see for yourself:

Re: Removing lintian warnings? (package games/dmagnetic)

[dettus]

Hey Adam!
Hey Matthew!

Yes, thank you. That answered my questions!!

I changed the value to "no" and just re-uploaded everything.
That removed the warning.


As for the "insecure URI": You are indeed correct. Apparently,
an SSL certificate was part of my hoster's package deal. So
I ordered its activation. I will change the URI once it is
fully activated.

Hello Matthew.

Yes, it does explain EVERYTHING in great detail.
Unfortunately, that is the opposite of helpful. ;)

So in some other words:

Rules-Requires-Root can be set to "no" unless you ship some files with
non-standard owner or group, or perhaps do something very strange with
permissions.  A package that doesn't require elevated privileges can be
built fine without root.

"Insecure URI" is about using http:// not https://.  In this case, the
https:// URL does not work -- so it's a deficiency of the webpage, not
fixable without upstream's help.  In your case, though, you may have a quite
easy time contacting upstream.  Note that this is not even a warning,
merely a wishlist item.

Likewise, autopkgtests are nice but I don't really see a way to make one
for this package.

Whilst there is nothing I will be able to do about the "insecure iru" and "gpg

What EXACTLY is it that I have to put into the debian/control and debian/rules

needs are during the installation process. Not whilst building, not whilst 
running.

PLEASE DO NOT JUST COPY&PASTE A LINK TO THE DOCUMENTATION IN HERE. PLEASE HELP 
ME.

I believe this requires a “Rules-Requires-Root: no” line in debian/control. 
Also, while you said not to link to documentation, I should note that if you 
click through the warning on the package page that you linked it tells you the 
extended description of this tag that is fairly explicit.

Hello Adam.


I just wanted to let you know, that you were right.

There was a bug in the default settings of dMagnetic. The one that 
prevented the graphics from showing up.

Thank you for pointing that out.

The problem has been fixed with release 0.18.

Parameters for "make check"?

[dettus]

Hello.


So, my latest and greatest release comes with a "make check" target.

The thing is, under Debian it requires an extra parameter.

make SHA256_CMD=sha256sum check

would be the correct one. My question is... How do I put this into the

debian package? So far, the only solution I had was to patch the Makefile.

Thing slash idea I would be playing with is having
  SHA256_CMD=sha256sum
in debian/rules.

Same suggestion in other words

  Set in debian/rules the environment variable SHA256_CMD
  the value to sha256


Even more verbose answers available in exchange
for more verbose version of the original message  ;-)
