BTW, there are some more orphaned Perl modules:
libdata-flow-perl, libdata-showtable-perl, libdb-file-lock-perl, 
libdevel-corestack-perl, libmail-srs-perl, libmldbm-sync-perl,
libpalm-perl, libwhisker-perl, libxml-sablot-perl

Maybe the Debian Perl Group wants to adopt these as well?

Cheers,
Moritz

Riku Voipio kindly uploaded my NMU, so there is no reason to rush the adoption.
If Camm does not veto the idea in the next few (2? 3? 4?) weeks, I propose 
take over as maintainer (along with anyone who wants to help) under the 
umbrella of debian-science team.

You could still keep the previous maintainer in Uploaders for some time.
I think it's a quite usual practice when you're still waiting for an
answer from the previous maintainer.

There's now a script subscribed to d-d-changes so the updates should be live and
pushed rather than pulled.

I'm welcoming Luca's idea to push other export formats after UDD

RFS: wmnetselect (updated package, QA upload, RC bugfix)

2008-07-27 Thread Sandro Tosi
Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 0.85-6
(QA upload) of package "wmnetselect".

It builds these binary packages:
wmnetselect - enhanced Iceweasel launch button designed for WindowMaker

The package appears to be lintian clean.

I'm not really happy about direct upstream code modification, but
didn't want to introduce a patch system so I've just modified the
manpage to replace Netscape/Mozilla with Iceweasel/Iceape.

The upload would fix these bugs: 419932

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/w/wmnetselect
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
main contrib non-free
- dget 
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/w/wmnetselect/wmnetselect_0.85-6.dsc

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

Kind regards
 Sandro Tosi

I think you will need some code fixes, too...

e.g.
$ rgrep mozilla . | head -n 3
./wmnetselect.c:/* default executable is mozilla, may be overridden by command 
line parameter */
./wmnetselect.c:#define EXECUTABLE "mozilla"
./wmnetselect.c:" Defaults to mozilla",

Also you will need to verify that this does actually something useful
afterwards.

I actually skipped this package because I thought this wasn't worth the
effort.

Gruesse,

Hi Frank,
thanks for the review!

Well, I've checked and mozilla is managed via alternatives to be iceweasel:

$ ls -l $(which mozilla)
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 2007-11-06 00:02 /usr/bin/mozilla ->
/etc/alternatives/mozilla
$ ls -l /etc/alternatives/mozilla
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 2008-07-19 13:19 /etc/alternatives/mozilla
-> /usr/bin/iceweasel

So it's working: or is it only on my system?

> Also you will need to verify that this does actually something useful

Sure, I verified this too: if you double left-click the app, it open a
new tab in iceweasel, if you right-click it will open a tab for
google.com and if you paste with middle-click that text is passed to
iceweasel to be opened as URL.

Of course it's not a critical package, but it didn't take too long to do it.

Thanks,
Sandro
