Bug#969192: O: memtest86 -- thorough real-mode memory tester
Package: wnpp Severity: normal I intend to orphan the memtest86 package. There will likely be no more DGSF-compliant version of this package. memtest86+ probably supercedes it completely nowadays.

It can output a list of bad RAM regions usable by the BadRAM kernel patch, so that you can still use you old RAM with one or two bad bits. .

Bug#969189: ITP: hydrapaper -- Utility that sets background independently for each monitor
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Francisco M Neto X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-de...@lists.debian.org * Package name: hydrapaper Version : 1.4.2 Upstream Author : Gabriele Musco * URL : https://gitlab.com/gabmus/HydraPaper * License : GPLv3 Programming Lang: Python Description : Utility that sets background independently for each monitor HydraPaper is a GTK-based utility that sets background images for multiple monitor desktops independently. It works by merging multiple wallpaper images into one and setting the result as wallpaper with the "Spanned" option. It is based on the GNOME 3 Desktop but officially supports MATE and Budgie as well, and should work on any GNOME-based desktop like Pantheon. This package offers the functionality of setting different wallpapers on different monitors, something that GNOME doesn't offer, and similar tools (e.g. variety) don't support either. It is not a dependency on any other packages. I plan to maintain it on my own. It is a reasonably small package, it is fairly simple and its build system is straightforward.
Bug#969188: RFP: duplicati -- user-friendly remote, encrypted, incremental backups; capable GUI via built-in local server
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name: duplicati Version : 2.0 Upstream Author : Kenneth Skovhede , Rene Stach * URL : http://www.duplicati.com/ * License : LGPL-2.1 Programming Lang: C# Description : user-friendly remote, encrypted, incremental backups; capable GUI via built-in local server I have looked at most of the backup packages in Debian and duplicati has a better combination ot features and ease-of-use, at least for personal use. It can perform remote, encrypted, incremental backups over several transports. It has a very capable GUI with well-designed configuration options. It makes a pragmatic, simplifying default choice of largely trusting the user's machine but not the remote host. The built-in web server for configuration and administration is very convenient (and excellent for remote administration using port forwarding). A debian package exists and requires little more than automated installation of systemd configuration.

Bug#969134: ITP: deepin-metacity -- lightweight GTK+ window manager
On Fri, 28 Aug 2020 at 01:53:59 +, stan clay wrote: > * Package name : deepin-metacity > Description : lightweight GTK+ window manager Does Deepin really need both a version of Mutter *and* a version of Metacity? If deepin-metacity and deepin-mutter are both uploaded, they'd be the 6th and 7th libraries derived from Metacity in the archive: * src:metacity, GNOME 2's original Metacity window manager and window management library, no longer used in GNOME but still used in GNOME Flashback (a GNOME 2.x-like environment) and Sugar * src:mutter, GNOME 3's Clutter-based window management and compositing library derived from Mutter, used in GNOME Shell, Budgie and Gala * src:muffin, derived from Mutter and used in Cinnamon * src:marco, derived from Mutter and used in MATE and compiz-gnome (Hypra) * src:ukwm, derived from Mutter and used in Kylin * src:deepin-mutter, derived from Mutter and used in Deepin * src:deepin-metacity, derived from Metacity and used in Deepin (Did I miss any?) I can understand desktop environments wanting to fork metacity or mutter, because those libraries are the core of the desktop environment's window manager or compositor, and developing them tightly integrated with the window manager or compositor itself can speed up development a lot (for example it means the window manager or compositor developers are free to refactor the library, removing functionality that their desktop environment doesn't need). However, for the ones that are only intended to be used by a single desktop environment, it might make sense to package the window management library in the same source package as the window manager/compositor itself, either statically linked or in a private shared library directory, without providing development files usable by third-party packages. > As the author says, metacity is a "Boring window manager for the adult in > you. Many window managers are like Marshmallow Froot Loops; Metacity is > like Cheerios." Similar to deepin-mutter, this is not really a particularly useful part of the description to quote. See the package descriptions for libmuffin0, libmutter-6-0 and libmarco-private2 for better examples to follow. smcv

Many > window managers are like Marshmallow Froot Loops; Metacity is like > Cheerios." This description doesn't really describe what deepin-mutter does, or what its relationship to the original (GNOME) mutter is. The way it works in GNOME is that mutter.deb provides a simple window manager, but is not very useful on its own, and is not something that people are actually meant to use as their daily window manager or compositor - it's mostly only there as a way to debug the mutter library. The window manager or compositor that GNOME users *actually* use is GNOME Shell, which implements the low-level bits by linking to libmutter. Budgie-Desktop and Gala are non-GNOME desktop enviroments that do the same thing, and Cinnamon has a similar relationship with Muffin, its fork of Mutter. >From https://github.com/linuxdeepin/deepin-wm it looks as though the situation in Deepin is similar to GNOME, with deepin-wm providing the main executable and loading (Deepin's version of) libmutter as a shared library. This description adapted from mutter.doap might be a better starting point: Deepin-Mutter is a window and compositing manager that displays and manages your desktop via OpenGL. It combines a sophisticated display engine using the Clutter toolkit with solid window-management logic inherited from the Metacity window manager, and is derived from the original Mutter library that is part of GNOME, with modifications for the Deepin desktop environment. While Deepin-Mutter can be used stand-alone, it is primarily intended to be used as the display core of a larger system such as deepin-wm. For this reason, it is very extensible via plugins, which are used both to add fancy visual effects and to rework the window management behaviors to meet the needs of the environment. I'd recommend using something like that instead of analogies about breakfast cereals. (See also the src:mutter package's Description fields, which I rewrote in 3.34.0-1.) Thanks, smcv
