I've checked packages.debian.org! But python-orbit2 and pyorbit are two 
differents bindings. 
We need pyorbit for the last version of python-gnome2.

Bug#182212: ITP: ttf-bitstream-vera

2003-02-24 Thread Grzegorz B. Prokopski
The Font Software may be modified, altered, or added to, and in
particular the designs of glyphs or characters in the Fonts may be
modified and additional glyphs or characters may be added to the
Fonts, only if the fonts are renamed to names not containing either
the words Bitstream or the word Vera.

So IIUC - to be able to modify the fonts we shouldn't name the package
with words bitstream and vera.

How will the RedHat name these fonts? Maybe we could pick up the name
from them to avoid confusing users that (will) move from other distros
to Debian.

Hm, not sure. What's the general opinion on this? I was planning to
package those fonts unmodified under their real name, and if some
interesting fork should come up to package that separately under
whatever name it uses.

Hi Falk,

  It just sleeps some time from current-time or from some initial-time,
with microsecond resolution. If you run it several times, the final
sleep will be the sum of all the sleeps (without cumulative errors
due to several calls to the program) - this is the feature that I
needed and did not find in any other sleep program.

  I'll paste some manpage content. If you have any other question, don't
hesitate do write again.

  Sorry for not describing it well in the ITP.

Pedro

-- manpage

NAME
   sleepenh - an enhanced sleep program.

SYNOPSIS
   sleepenh [initial-time] sleep-time

DESCRIPTION
   sleepenh  is  a  program  that can be used when there is a
   need to execute some functions  periodically  in  a  shell
   script.  It  was  not  designed to be acurate for a single
   sleep, but to be acurate  in  a  sequence  of  consecutive
   sleeps.
   After  a  successfull  execution, it returns to stdout the
   timestamp it finished running, that can be  used  as  ini­
   tial-time to a successive execution of sleepenh.

OPTIONS
   There  are  no  command  line  options. Run it without any
   option to get a brief help and version.

ARGUMENTS
   sleep-time is a real number in seconds, with  microseconds
   resolution  (1  minute, 20 seconds and 123456 microseconds
   would be 80.123456).
   initial-time is a real number in seconds,  with  microsec­
   onds  resolution.  This  number  is  system  dependent. In
   GNU/Linux systems, it is the number of seconds since  mid­
   night  1970-01-01  GMT.  Do not try to get a good value of
   initial-time. Use the value suplied by a  previous  execu­
   tion of sleepenh.
   If  you don't specify initial-time, it is assumed the cur­
   rent-time.

USAGE EXAMPLE
   Supose you need to send the char 'A' to  the  serial  port
   ttyS0 every 4 seconds. This will do that:

  #!/bin/sh
  TIMESTAMP=`sleepenh 0`
  while true; do
# send the byte to ttyS0
echo -n A  /dev/ttyS0;

# just print a nice message on screen
echo -n I sent 'A' to ttyS0, time now is ;
sleepenh 0;

# wait the required time
TIMESTAMP=`sleepenh $TIMESTAMP 4.0`;
  done

 I'm not completely sure I agree here - it seems that it restricts
 itself to self-defense against IPR attacks on an open standard.
 However, the line is thin, and there's probably not a detailed
 consensus about where to draw it in this particular area.

 Agreed. So luckily we don't need any detailed flamewar over which
 degree of anti-patent self-defense we allow a license to include.
 
 And to Eric: This clause is non-free because it restricts
 modifications. It does not allow modifications that change the code to
 work with another format than jpeg. The DFSG requires the right to
 make modifications, and does not permit any [1] restrictions on this
 right.
 
 [1] Except certain restrictions for the purpose of preventing modified
 versions from being falsely represented as being the work of the
 original author, which we do traditionally accept as free.
