Re: RFS: wicd-client-kde

2010-11-04 Thread Iker Salmón San Millán
I have uploaded a new package, but there are a couple of issues.

first i have to rename the ITP and i've been looking how to do it but i
haven't found.
The second thing is that i get an error that anthony (author)  can't
reproduce it. The program works well but there is kind of issue with the
launcher and kick off (it saids tha KDEinit couldn't launch the program but
the program starts).  I have a patch ready and sent to the author but i want
to wait till he reproduces the error and supervise the patch.

Here is the new package if someone want to make a review:

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/w/wicd-kde
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main
contrib non-free
- dget
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/w/wicd-kde/wicd-kde_0.2.1-1.dsc

And if someone cand help me finding a link to something to read about how to
rename the ITP bug it would be grate

Thanks

Put it that way, it indeed makes more sense to call the binary wicd-kde. So
I can do that upstream, but I haven't planned a new release anytime soon
because I just released a new one a couple of days ago. But if needed, I can

The wicd-client binary is just a wrapper, that runs wicd-curses or wicd-gtk,
depending on whether X is available or not.

wicd-gtk is really a separate client, /usr/bin/wicd-gtk .
Also /usr/bin/wicd-curses is a client, and /usr/bin/wicd-cli is another.
I see /usr/bin/wicd-client-kde failing being consistent here :-)

Anthony, would it be possible for you to reconsider this decision, and call
it /usr/bin/wicd-kde?

Yes, please, correct the package description.

Other than this, the package seemed fine to me earlier today. I'll have a more
careful check as soon as the binary name issue is solved.

David

I've also added "provides: wicd-client" in debian/control.

I am still wainting upstream response about changing the name to wicd-qt,

I also have a question.  If we (me, mentors, sponsors, DD, upstream...)

There is a big issue with the icons thing, i'll quote the author's response:

---
Unfortunately I can't do this, because I use the same name scheme as knm on
purpose. Let me explain the situation:
- That name scheme is the one used by monochromatic icons on KDE4.5.x. There
is no way to have control over it. So if I want the application to use those
monochromatic icons, I have to use that name scheme.
Now the tricky part:
- The monochromatic icon set is shipped in kdebase-runtime as part of the
"Air" desktop theme.
- network-wired.png (has to be used because is has a monochromatic
equivalent) is shipped in oxygen-icons.
- All the other icons are shipped with knm.
To sum up: The monochromatic icons are meant to be used with one and only
one icon (well at least one icon name), but monochromatic icons + normal
icons are dispatched in 3 different kde "parts" (I don't know how I should
call them), and one of this "parts" is an application on its own (knm), so
not generic. I hope you understand my explaination ;)
My plan was to get in touch with the knm guys eventually, to try to have all
the icons in one place, but I haven't yet. But even if it happens, I doubt
it will happen tomorrow, if you know what I mean...

So i guess that the best option is to comunicate with kde-devel team to see
if it's posible to provide those icons with oxygen-icon-theme instead that
with knm-runtime.  We'll see that.  But now i just want to keep correcting
the package and see if i can do something that it worths, so i'll keep
conflicts: knm-runtime for the present time.

In fact, you can install both because there is no reason not to be able to.

For now, I'd find this situation satisfactory, yet not ideal: icons should 
be renamed on one side to avoid the conflict.

The patch you have made to fix the spelling errors still has some issues:

* You should incorporate "DEP-3" headers to it. 
* You are renaming the "informationsButton" object into "informationButton". 
Why that ? This will never appear in the GUI and will only be a source of 
errors, no ?
* You changed "adress" for "address" in the english source and in all po's, 
but it seems you made a quick "search and replace". This has the following 
consequences:
 - in french, you substituted "adresse" for "addresse", which is wrong
   (french adresse has one 'd')
 - You changed the "source translations" blindly (aka the translations are
   not marked "fuzzy". How do you know that the non-plural form of
   "Information" is translated the same in chinese as its plural form ?

So I would say that both entagled part of the patch are wrong and I would 
simply drop it: the code change is too risky and the i18n label change is 
done too blindly.

Just convince upstream to release a fixed version. :-)

Hi Iker, and thanks for packaging this software!

Preliminary notice: I am not a DD, so I will not be able to upload your 
package. However, I think that my review can be of interest.

> The package appears to be lintian clean.

Maybe, but it doesn't build in a clean chroot: you miss at least kdelibs-bin 
(so using kdelibs5-dev as Build-Dependency would be good [and works]). Did 
you build it in a clean chroot (with pbuilder or sbuild e.g.) before 
uploading it to mentors.d.n ?

Once I fixed that, I still had one lintian warning:

W: wicd-client-kde: binary-without-manpage usr/bin/wicd-client-kde

which should really be fixed (see help2man for example).

> The upload would fix these bugs: 602049

Other things I noticed (randomly ordered)

* Your debian/copyright is unusual as it doesn't quote the GPL license.

* You have a debian/patches subdirectory that contains direct changes to the 
source: if you want to apply patches, you should really prepare real patches 
(quilt add; quilt edit; …).

* You are mis-using the Vcs-* fields in debian/control: those are not meant 
to point the the "upstream" VCS, but to the packaging VCS.

* This package would perfectly fit in the "KDE-Extras" team; did you 
consider putting it under this umbrella ?

* There is a typo in the description: "qt" should be "Qt". And if it is 
really a "KDE" client, it should be labelled as such.

* Your changelog contains two useless informations: the fact that it's your 
first package and the two spelling errors you are fixing (without proper 
patching, see above). For a first release, there is usually no need to 
explain what you have done (a matter of taste). So if you want to mention 
the spelling errors patch, you can, but you should mention that it is done 
through patching.

* The packages ships the network-wireless-*.png icons, that are also in knm-
runtime. So you would either need to conflict with knm-runtime or convince 
their maintainers to ship said icons in a separate package that you could 
use too. By the way, this shows that the icons are probably duplicated from 
knm-runtime and this sucks (code/data duplication is never good). By the 
way, the oxygen-icon-theme package ships network-wireless-connected-*.png 
icons which could be used instead. Furthermore, those icons are shipped in 
the orig tarball as *.png, which is certainly not the "preferred form of 
modification".

So far so good, you have already enough to do. :-) Looking forward for your 
fixed package !

Cheers, OdyX

Hi!

I am not a DD, so I have no possiblity to upload any package, and I am
not familiar with KDE stuff - but anyway - 

Trying to build (pdebuild) this package I do get a warning for lacking 
cmake_minimum_required, which probably isn't too serious:

 8< 
CMake Warning (dev) in CMakeLists.txt:
  No cmake_minimum_required command is present.  A line of code such as

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8)

  should be added at the top of the file.  The version specified may be
lower if you wish to support older CMake versions for this project.
For more information run "cmake --help-policy CMP".
This warning is for project developers.  Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.
 8< 

What is worse, I get this too:

 8< 
CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FindKDE4.cmake:58 (MESSAGE):
  ERROR: Could not find KDE4 kde4-config
 8< 

Have you forgotten som build-depends on some KDE development package?

I am very far from an expert on packaging (I am also in the process of
trying to get a package into Debian), but as I understand reviewing of
others packages is encouraged.

best regards

RFS: wicd-client-kde

2010-11-01 Thread Iker Salmón San Millán
Dear Mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "wicd-client-kde".

* Package name: wicd-client-kde
  Version : 0.2.1-1
  Upstream Author : Anthony Vital 
* URL : http://gitorious.org/wicd-client-kde
* License : GPL v3
  Section : kde

It builds these binary packages:
wicd-client-kde - wired and wireless network manager - KDE client

The package appears to be lintian clean.

The upload would fix these bugs: 602049

My motivation for maintaining this package is:

I am using this program since the first releases and works quite well.  I
also want to start mantaining some packages and i think this package is a
good start for it.
I am in contact with the upstream author and he also would be glad to have
his program in debian oficial repositories and he is going to help me fixing
posibles bugs if appear.


The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/w/wicd-client-kde
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main
contrib non-free
- dget
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/w/wicd-client-kde/wicd-client-kde_0.2.1-1.dsc

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

Kind regards
