No, you don't have to write to this list, since it's just a
collector for 'work needed and perspective packages'.

If you want to maintain a package in debian, please read and
understand: debian policy, debian developers reference, debian new
maintainers guide.

 Please let me know and I will send a list of my preferred packages and a bit 
 of background info about myself.

There's no need to send the list here (we will not approve it or so):
if you noticed a (look up the acronyms on web) RFP/RFA/O package you
want to help, retitle to ITP/ITA and start working on it. Once done,
upload it to mentors.debian.net and send a RFS to
debian-ment...@lists.debian.org.

For any doubt or so, ask debian-ment...@lists.debian.org or (for IRC)
#debian-mentors on OFTC network.

 Hi,

 you are right about the name. That must have been a typo...
 Have a look at my package.diff

My diff is not so complete, you know, it was for a in house package,
so I have no manpage for example. :)


 Did you have to add patch cmdiag.cpp, too?

Yes, the same include that you add but, in fact, this include was
no necesary in previous glibc / g++ versions, for example at Ubuntu
7.04 (feisty) the orig tar.gz compile without patch, but in debian
etch/sid and in Ubuntu 8.04 (Intrepid), I need to add the include,
too.

2009-04-06 Thread Bart Samwel
Hi Steve,

On Mon, April 6, 2009 05:44, Steve Langasek wrote:
 On Sun, Apr 05, 2009 at 11:06:15PM +0200, Bart Samwel wrote:
 1. The upstream for this package is Ubuntu. Ubuntu has never been very
 cooperative at accepting changes, until recently: our contact Steve
 Langasek has indicated that he is interested in merging most or all of
 our changes, provided that we send them in in chunks, with proper
 rationales.

 I have to say here in defense of Ubuntu that I don't see any record of
 these
 patches being submitted to the Ubuntu package via Launchpad, which, since
 Ubuntu does not have individual package maintainers, is the only reliable
 way to ensure that proposed changes are seen and considered by the people
 working on the package at any given time.

Yeah, I think it's probably mostly me being disappointed earlier, and not
so much the Ubuntu side. The feeling that I have had is that because there
are no individual package maintainers, it's hard to find somebody on the
other side who feels responsible for the package, and who is willing to
discuss merging of sets of patches etc., so that you can discuss the
chances of acceptance _before_ you do the work. It's so much easier if you
can talk to a person, launchpad sometimes feels like throwing stuff into a
black hole. /rant Things suddenly got much easier when I got into direct
contact with you. But I shouldn't be blaming Ubuntu, my expectations just
didn't match the way Ubuntu works.

 I don't have time to work on the Debian package myself (either as
 maintainer
 or for sifting through the delta between Debian and Ubuntu), but I
 definitely am happy to accept fixes upstream in reasonable-sized chunks.

 Anyway, as Bart points out, there's another issue:

 4. Ubuntu is PHASING OUT this package. They have already moved suspend
 to pm-utils (but have failed to remove suspend support from
 acpi-support). They're currently moving hotkey translation to hal. This
 means that soon we will have no upstream that we can follow! Or we
 should ensure that Ubuntu's hal changes are included in our version of
 hal as well -- no clue how those packages are related, or whether
 Ubuntu's changes are going into upstream hal.

 Since the last time I had a chance to speak with Bart about this, there's
 been quite a bit of progress on phasing out the package for Ubuntu; in
 jaunty, we've dropped a number of quirk scripts related to suspend/resume,
 as well as close to 30 of the ACPI event-handling scripts from /etc/acpi -
 basically:  all those scripts that were being used to synthesize key
 events (which doesn't work with recent kernels anyway) and which we could
 verify were being handled by hal.

 And yes, Martin Pitt works very closely with hal upstream to ensure fixes
 are incorporated.

Thanks for the update!

Cheers,
Bart

Hi,

 Any update on the status of the urjtag ITP?

I'll do another upload soonish, there was one already but it got rejected
because I missed some stuff in debian/copyright.


 I have also been looking at the HairyDairyMaid jtag utility available from
 
 http://downloads.openwrt.org/utils/
 
 It seems to support more chips than the old openwince-jtag does, but do you 
 know if urjtag can do the same things?

Urjtag is a fork of openwince-jtag AFAIK, but it has seen lots more
improvements and additions than openwince-jtag, which seems pretty much
dead. I'll make urjtag conflict with openwince-jtag for now.
 

 Either way it might be useful to have both in the archive.

Yes, I think so. I don't know much about HairyDairyMaid, but it looks
like it would be useful to have in Debian, in addition to urjtag.

Section: universe/utils
Architecture: i386 kfreebsd-i386 amd64 kfreebsd-amd64
Description: utilities for Dell Inspiron and Latitude laptops
 This is a collection of utilities to control Dell Inspiron and Latitude
 laptops. It includes programs to turn the fan on and off, to read fan
 status, CPU temperature, BIOS version and to handle the volume buttons
 and Fn-keys.
 
 The package includes also a small Tk applet, designed to be swallowed in the
 gnome panel, which monitors the CPU temperature and controls automatically
 the fans accordingly to user defined thresholds.
 
 The programs require the kernel module i8k.o which can be compiled from
 the package sources or found in Linux kernel 2.4.14 and later versions.
 The kernel module has been tested only on Inspiron 8000 laptops but it
 should work on any Inspiron and Latitude laptops.

I had to patch several things to build nftables libs and executable to
make it build, and runtime isn't working yet (due to incompatibilities
in the parser and the bison version).

Cheers,
Pierre

Bug#522683: RFA: acpi-support -- glue layer for translating laptop buttons, plus legacy suspend support

 1. The upstream for this package is Ubuntu. Ubuntu has never been very
 cooperative at accepting changes, until recently: our contact Steve
 Langasek has indicated that he is interested in merging most or all of
 our changes, provided that we send them in in chunks, with proper
 rationales.
 
 I have to say here in defense of Ubuntu that I don't see any record of these
 patches being submitted to the Ubuntu package via Launchpad, which, since
 Ubuntu does not have individual package maintainers, is the only reliable
 way to ensure that proposed changes are seen and considered by the people
 working on the package at any given time.
 
 I don't have time to work on the Debian package myself (either as maintainer
 or for sifting through the delta between Debian and Ubuntu), but I
 definitely am happy to accept fixes upstream in reasonable-sized chunks.
 
 Anyway, as Bart points out, there's another issue:
 
 4. Ubuntu is PHASING OUT this package. They have already moved suspend
 to pm-utils (but have failed to remove suspend support from
 acpi-support). They're currently moving hotkey translation to hal. This
 means that soon we will have no upstream that we can follow! Or we
 should ensure that Ubuntu's hal changes are included in our version of
 hal as well -- no clue how those packages are related, or whether
 Ubuntu's changes are going into upstream hal.
 
 Since the last time I had a chance to speak with Bart about this, there's
 been quite a bit of progress on phasing out the package for Ubuntu; in
 jaunty, we've dropped a number of quirk scripts related to suspend/resume,
 as well as close to 30 of the ACPI event-handling scripts from /etc/acpi -
 basically:  all those scripts that were being used to synthesize key
 events (which doesn't work with recent kernels anyway) and which we could
 verify were being handled by hal.
 
 And yes, Martin Pitt works very closely with hal upstream to ensure fixes
 are incorporated.

I can confirm that. Martin is doing an awesome job, submitting patches upstream
or to Debian ftm.

As (co-)maintainer of pm-utils and hal, I'd prefer if we could work towards
standardizing on one power management stack in Debian (and not install 3 by
default [1]), i.e. I'd support in phasing out acpi-support and would gladly
accept patches for hal and pm-utils which add (if there are) any missing bits
from acpi-support.

Cheers,
Michael

Bug#522829: O: hping2 -- Active Network Smashing Tool

2009-04-06 Thread Romain Francoise
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I intend to orphan the hping2 package.

The package description is:
 hping2 is a network tool able to send custom ICMP/UDP/TCP packets and
 to display target replies like ping does with ICMP replies. It handles
 fragmentation and arbitrary packet body and size, and can be used to
 transfer files under supported protocols. Using hping2, you can test
 firewall rules, perform (spoofed) port scanning, test network
 performance using different protocols, do path MTU discovery, perform
 traceroute-like actions under different protocols, fingerprint remote
 operating systems, audit TCP/IP stacks, etc.

Great, thanks Marcus!

Just updated my package:

Now I'm running on my server. Lets see how it does for awhile.

Still need to arrange a sponsor for Debian. :-)

 This second package EtherVendors should depend on the update-oui (or
 whatever) so It shouldn't contains the oui registry list.

 note that oui (the package) is supposed to contain update-oui plus a directory
 where to drop parser scripts if your program needs the listing specially 
 parsed,
 anyhow a preliminary package is at
 http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/collab-maint/deb-maint/ieee-data/trunk/#_deb-maint_ieee-data_trunk_

Ok, I'll remove the update option, and use the info maintained by your
packet ieee-data
Thanks for the info.
