Bug#101205: ITP: gutenbook -- Interface to read Project Gutenberg etexts.

2001-06-17 Thread Viral
Package: wnpp
Version: N/A; reported 2001-06-17
Severity: wishlist

I wish to package gutenbook, the details about which are as follows :

It is available from http://www.gutenbook.org/

Project Gutenberg (http://promo.net/pg/index.html) aims to make public 
domain literature available to the world in ASCII text format.  

Gutenbook aims to be a free and more intuitive, comfortable document
reader, within the scope of a computer's desktop metaphor, geared
specifically toward Project Gutenberg Etexts, but supporting any ASCII 
document.

The license is GPL.

Bug#101244: ITP: kdeartwork -- official styles and themes released with KDE

2001-06-17 Thread Ben Burton

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

I intend to package kdeartwork.

Package: kdeartwork-misc, kdeartwork-style, kdeartwork-theme-icon, 
kdeartwork-theme-window
License: GPL
URL: http://www.kde.org/

Description:

These packages contain widget styles, icon themes, window decoration themes 
and other multimedia goodies that come with the official KDE release.  They 
can be applied to your desktop through the KDE Control Center.

A note regarding package bloat: this should never rise above four binary 
packages.  New additions to the official KDE artwork module will be put into 
one of the four existing packages according to its function (widget theme, 
icon theme, window decoration theme or other).

Motivations for packaging this in the first place are (i) much of the 
material here was originally in kdebase and so has already been a part of 
debian, and (ii) this is one of the officially announced KDE modules (new to 
KDE 2.2; some of the stuff was moved out of kdebase into here).

Bug#101246: ITP: hoverball and hoverware

2001-06-17 Thread Matt Taggart
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

I Intend To Package hoverball and hoverware

Upstream site: http://sourceforge.net/projects/hoverball/
License: GPL
Descriptions:

hoverball - 3D multiplayer realtime team hovercraft football(soccer) game in 
which the players fly hovercraft and attempt to hit a large ball into the 
other teams goal. There will be both client and server packages. Can be used 
with Mesa but needs hardware accelerated OpenGL support to enable all the 
graphics features.

hoverware - 3D graphics middleware layer built on OpenGL. This package will 
probably have a runtime deb and a development deb.

The source has only recently been ported to Linux and has a few issues that 
need to be resolved before it can go into Debian. I will work with upstream to 
get these issues fixed before attempting to package.

Thanks,

Bug#101255: RFA: diskless -- NFSROOT image stuff

2001-06-17 Thread Brian May
Package: wnpp
Severity: important

Hello,

I am not able to give this package the attention it deserves any more
(nor am I as interested in NFS-root systems as I once was), and hence
I am announcing the fact here.


There are two major tasks:

1. It needs updating to support the debootstrap mechanism in woody.
(possibly this may involve getting rid of diskless-newhost and
replacing it with a call to debootstrap instead).

This task needs to get done before the freeze, or diskless will
essentially become unusable.

2. The documentation is confusing and needs updating.

3. other bugs need addressing.

(also under consideration: do something to make it easier for users to
create their own custom versions of diskless-image-*.deb, in case the
defaults are not sufficient. Perhaps these deb packages could be
included in diskless*.deb, but not sure if this is possible).

I think all of these tasks should be relatively easy and probably
shouldn't take too much time either (especially if you have a fast
Internet connection), just that my other package, Heimdal, is taking
up all my spare time right now.

If nobody else wants to adopt this package, I will continue with it
for now, but may not be done with any great speed.

 Are you still working on packaging Gstreamer?  If not, I'm interested in

I just noticed that you're not yet an official maintainer.  Do you need a
sponsor for this package?  I would like to see it in Debian.
