Bug#330125: comaintenance offer

 Hi all,

 I'm sorry for the lengthy delay! I've been reading up on the Debian
 Policy and the Developers Guide while trying to get a grip on the
 toolchain-source package. A task not to be taken lightly! :-)

 I have some questions to Hakan (mostly):

 *) During the build phase, the file template.tgz is created from
 binutils-TARGET and gdb-TARGET. I cannot see when the gcc-TARGET
 directory is used, or how to build the template-gcc.tgz archive.
 How, and where is this done?

The gcc-TARGET dir is no longer used. template-gcc.tgz is instead
built from a slightly modified version of the gcc source package. This
has to be done manually before building the toolchain-source package
as Build-Depends on source packages are nto possible. Check out the
attached update_gcc.sh script. It is used to create template-gcc.tgz
before the build. There is probably some pre 4.0 version of it in the
source package. Note that a 4.0 template created this way don't work
out of the box, some debugging and tweking is needed :)


 *) I've found multiple gcc-TARGET directories (./gcc-TARGET, and
 ./t/gcc-TARGET); which one is the right one? I think
 ./t/gcc-TARGET is an old checkout of gcc-3.4.3? In that case,
 why is it included in the source checkout?

t is a temporary backup, it should be removed. gcc-TARGET is no longer
used so it should probably be removed aswell. Sorry for the mess...


 *) I managed to grab gcc-4.0 after a bit of tweaking in
 /etc/apt/sources.list. I figure I should also get the relevant
 binutils, gdb and newlib sources?

Well, the toolchain-source contains all those source codes, and they
should be upgraded when newer versions is availible. There is a
update.sh script that once did this. It might still work for binutils
and gdb if you comment out the gcc stuff.

But you don't have to update them att at once. Its probably better to
take them one at the time until you get the hang of things. Maybe a
good idea to start with upgrade the binutils or gdb sources, that
should be quite straight forward, then move on to upgrading gcc,
requires some tweeking and a lot of testting of for different targets.
Check out test.sh it generates a set of corsscompilers, installs them
and tries to compile some simple programs.

newlib-support is not as important, but a nice feature once you get
the rest working.


 I appreciate your help and understanding in that I might stumble in
 the beginning...

By all means!


 Regards
 /Daniel

Bug#338077: sword-text-kjv - King James Version and Royal Letters Patent

2005-11-10 Thread MJ Ray
debian-legal has reviewed this topic before. You can read it in
http://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2002/05/msg00108.html
Some of the links there have rotted, but it seemed clearly not
Crown copyright.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_James_Version_of_the_Bible
Wikipedia asserts that the KJV is still copyrighted in England.
I think Wikipedia is incomplete at best. Yet again, it does not
seem possible to verify a Wikipedia assertion from evidence
cited in its article. The discussion link on the article
expresses doubt and many of the people discussing it use
letters patent/copyright which seems confused to me.

It is my present understanding that the royal letters patent
control printing, not copyright, which did not exist here when
this started.  This orthogonality or independence is
mentioned in articles, including some you can find online like
http://www.lexum.umontreal.ca/conf/dac/en/sterling/sterling.html
Crown Copyright in the United Kingdom..., by J.A.L. Sterling.

Lionel Elie Mamane cited the 1998 Copyright Act, which surprised
me because I've not heard of it. Which country is it for?

I haven't yet found anything credibly showing extension of the
prerogative to electronic distribution, or more generally to
become a Crown copyright. I don't think we generally grant
the monarchy new prerogatives these days and The Crown cannot
invent new prerogative powers (2002-03 Public Admin. Select
Comm. Press Notice 19).

The act currently in force in England is the Copyright Designs
and Patents Act 1988 as amended. If the KJV were covered by
Crown Copyright, wouldn't that have expired after 125 years? I
think the letters patent and royal prerogative are the problem.

So, it's not a problem to *distribute* the KJV in England, as
far as I can see, but it seems you're not free to print it here.
The same may be true of some other Commonwealth countries,
as listed in s.3 and notes of Sterling above.

Hope that helps,

I don't see a conclusive answer in that discussion; only doubt and
didn't find any proof that this restriction still holds. I'd prefer
if we could find a specific abrogation of the restriction.

 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_James_Version_of_the_Bible

 I think Wikipedia is incomplete at best.

 It is my present understanding that the royal letters patent

I see... Then it would make the KJV merely non-free in the UK, not
illegal to distribute. On the other hand, I wouldn't be too surprised
if the courts would interpret printing in such an old text as any
efficient way to disseminate / distribute.

 This orthogonality or independence is
 mentioned in articles, including some you can find online like
 http://www.lexum.umontreal.ca/conf/dac/en/sterling/sterling.html

This one doesn't contain the string ortho and indepen only at one
place that doesn't seem to apply.

 Lionel Elie Mamane cited the 1998 Copyright Act, which surprised

I mistyped; I meant 1988, for the UK.

 the monarchy new prerogatives these days and The Crown cannot

The question is not of new prerogatives, but whether the old one
concerning KJV of the bible has been abrogated or not.

 The act currently in force in England is the Copyright Designs
 and Patents Act 1988 as amended. If the KJV were covered by
 Crown Copyright, wouldn't that have expired after 125 years? I
 think the letters patent and royal prerogative are the problem.

On the other hand, it says (section 171):

171.-(1) Nothing in this Part affecs-

   (a) any right or privilege of any person under any enactment
   (except where the enactment is expressly repealed, amended or
   modified by this Act);

   (b) any right or privilege of the Crown subsisting otherwise
   than under an enactment;


Wouldn't this preserve this perpetual Crown Copyright / Royal
Prerogative / ...?

I'm starting to think that the Wikipedia article talks of copyright
loosely, not only to what is called copyright legally, but of all
legal restrictions of dealings with distribution, performance,
derivation, ... of literary works.

 So, it's not a problem to *distribute* the KJV in England, as far as
 I can see, but it seems you're not free to print it here.

Aha.

Bug#338503: ITP: cvssuck -- inefficient cvs repository grabber using cvs command

2005-11-10 Thread Piotr Roszatycki
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Piotr Roszatycki [EMAIL PROTECTED]

* Package name: cvssuck
  Version : 0.3.cvs20020108
* URL : http://cvs.m17n.org/~akr/cvssuck/
* License : BSD
  Description : inefficient cvs repository grabber using cvs command

CVSsuck is a mirroring tool for CVS repositories. Unlike other tools
such as CVSup or rsync, it uses cvs command to access the repository.
So, it works well with remote repositories without a special server or
shell account. However it is inefficient and not perfect because CVS
client/server protocol is not designed for mirroring. If a server
provides special way to grab a repository, you shouldn't use CVSsuck.

2005-11-10 Thread Thaddeus H. Black
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Thaddeus H. Black [EMAIL PROTECTED]

* URL : http://home.ntelos.net/~b-tk/derivations/
* License : GPL-2
  Description : book: Derivations of Applied Mathematics

Understandably, program sources rarely derive the mathematical formulas
they use.  Not wishing to take the formulas on faith, a user might
nevertheless reasonably wish to see such formulas somewhere derived.

Derivations of Applied Mathematics is a book which documents and
derives many of the mathematical formulas and methods implemented in
free software or used in science and engineering generally.  It
documents and derives the Taylor series (used to calculate
trigonometrics), the Newton-Raphson method (used to calculate square
roots), the Pythagorean theorem (used to calculate distances) and many
others.

The book is a work in progress.

Bug#338530: ITP: 915resolution -- resolution modify tool for Intel 915/999/1000 graphic chipsets

2005-11-10 Thread Steffen Joeris
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name: 915resolution
  Version : 0.4.7
  Upstream Author : Steve Tomljenovic [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* URL : http://www.geocities.com/stomljen/download.html
* License : under public domain
  Description : resolution modify tool for Intel chipsets

 915resolution is a tool to modify the video BIOS of the 800
 and 900 series Intel graphics chipsets. This includes the 845G,
 855G, and 865G chipsets, as well as 915G, 915GM, and 945G chipsets.
 This modification is necessary to allow the display of certain
 graphics resolutions for an Xorg or XFree86 graphics server.
 .
 915resolution's modifications of the BIOS are transient.
 There is no risk of permanent modification of the BIOS.
 This also means that 915resolution must be run every time the
 computer boots inorder for it's changes to take effect.
 If you want to automatically set the resolution on each boot
 and before X is launched, see /usr/share/doc/915resolution/README.Debian
 for information about configuring the provided initscript.

Bug#304271: Some, yes...

2005-11-10 Thread Torsten Marek
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

I've put some packages up at

http://diotavelli.net/files/deb

that improve quite a lot on the current Debian packaging of lighttpd.

I'm not sure whether we the original submitter is still interested in
maintaining lighttpd. Otherwise, I'd like to gather some people to package
lighttpd in a group effort, also because of that fact that I've got quite a lot
of stuff to do right now and thus, lighttpd is not very high on my list.

Things that still need to be done:

* better package descriptions
* better default configuration
  - get the mime-type associations from somewhere else instead of manually  
listing them
  - include better default cgi.assign and fcgi.assign   

* handle creation/deletion of www-data user and group, if necessary
* handle log purging
* include a boilerplate HTML page saying Wow, you successfully managed to type
in 'apt-get install lighttpd', now install lighttpd-doc as well and figure out
what to do with it
* tweak Recommends: and Suggests:
* find out if there are any advantages if the package is built with libfcgi-dev
* include mod_cml support with LUA and put it into lighttpd-mod-cml
* maybe split lighttpd into even more packages, if needed
* create a dirlisting template that slightly advertises Debian
* check if there is a better build system

I think that lighttpd is not only a good choice for small servers, but also for
desktop users that need a web server for local web applications (like
phpmyadmin) or stuff like dhelp, since it's much less of a memory hog than
running a full apache.

greetings

Torsten

Hi,

anyone who wants to work on iproute is greatly welcome, perhaps also as
co-maintainer (and I'm also willing to sponsor people). The reason I 
intend to give the package away is that I'm not really the great
networking guy, but I'll try to give the package a warm home till I can
pass it over to someone else -- and as iproute is quite vital for
some purposes, I'll do some checks before giving the package away. It is
_not_ orphaned, I'm only looking for somebody else for maintaining.

The description is:
 This is `iproute', the professional set of tools to control the
 networking behavior in kernels 2.2.x and later.
 .
 At least, the options CONFIG_NETLINK and CONFIG_NETLINK_DEV (or
 CONFIG_RTNETLINK) must be compiled into the running kernel.
 .
 This package is also known as iproute2 upstream and in some
 documentation.


Cheers,
Andi
