Bug#794429: RFA: rspamd

2015-10-04 Thread Aurélien Gérôme
Hi Mikhail,

If this is still all right with you, I am interested to bring rspamd
to the latest upstream release with non-native packaging.  So far,
rspamd seems to satisfy my use case in replacement of a dead and
buggy dspam, so I am willing to pitch in.

Regards,

This is nice. I put Didier in Cc, as he can perhaps make use of them
for usb-modeswitch. Feel free to ask me if you need sponsoring for
ozerocdoff.

I sponsored 2 weeks ago usb-modeswitch[1] which is currently pending
in the NEW queue. How does ozerocdoff compare to usb-modeswitch?

It is indeed dead upstream. I even refrained to upload the
latest snapshot (with notices support), because it appeared as a
reverse-dependency of rails, and I never had a use case for it with
rails. I used libdbi-ruby1.8 with rails.

I adopted it back then, because I used it for personal admin
scripts. There is also libdbd-pg-ruby1.8 as reverse-dependency.

I would go for a total replacement, as this fork is what seems to
be used nowadays. Since I do not have the time to investigate, this
is why I said that you can do whatever it takes to move on, so feel
free to add you as co-maintainer.

Bug#453732: ITP: usb-modeswitch -- mode switching tool for controlling "flip flop" (multiple device) USB gear

2007-11-30 Thread Aurélien GÉRÔME
I was told that the upstream description (which I pasted untouched)
was not much descriptive and objective. I tend to agree, so I am
writing a new one...

* Package name: usb-modeswitch
  Version : 0.9.2
  Upstream Author : Josua Dietze <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://www.draisberghof.de/usb_modeswitch/
  Licence : GPLv2 or later
  Programming Lang: C
  Description : mode switching tool for controlling "flip flop" USB devices

Several new USB devices have their proprietary Windows drivers onboard,
especially WAN dongles. When plugged in for the first time, they act
like a flash storage and start installing the driver from there. If
the driver is already installed, the storage device vanishes and
a new device, such as an USB modem, shows up. This is called the
"ZeroCD" feature.

On Debian, this is not needed, since the driver is included as a
Linux kernel module, such as "usbserial". However, the device still
shows up as "usb-storage" by default. usb-modeswitch solves that
issue by sending the command which actually performs the switching
of the device from "usb-storage" to "usbserial".

Bug#453732: ITP: usb-modeswitch -- mode switching tool for controlling "flip flop" (multiple device) USB gear

2007-11-30 Thread Aurélien GÉRÔME
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Aurélien GÉRÔME <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

* Package name: usb-modeswitch
  Version : 0.9.2
  Upstream Author : Josua Dietze <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://www.draisberghof.de/usb_modeswitch/
  Licence : GPLv2 or later
  Programming Lang: C
  Description : mode switching tool for controlling "flip flop" (multiple 
device) USB gear

Several new USB devices (especially high-speed WAN stuff, they're
expensive anyway) have their MS Windows drivers onboard; when
plugged in for the first time they act like a flash storage and start
installing the driver from there. After that (and on every consecutive
plugging) this driver switches the mode internally, the storage device
vanishes (in most cases), and a new device (like an USB modem) shows
up. Some call that feature "ZeroCD".

Of course, nothing of this is documented in any form and there is
hardly any Linux driver available. On the good side, most of the known
devices work out of the box with the available Linux modules like
"usb-storage" or "usbserial". That leaves the problem of the mode
switching from storage to whatever the thing is supposed to do.

Fortunately there are things like human intelligence, USB sniffing
programs and "libusb". It is possible to eavesdrop the communication
of the MS Windows driver, to isolate the command or action that does
the switching, and to reproduce the same thing with Linux.

USB_ModeSwitch makes the last step relatively easy by taking the
important parameters from a configuration file and doing all the
initialization and communication stuff.

It does NOT check for success afterwards as of now. The right approach
would be to consult /proc/bus/usb/devices (or the output of "lsusb")
before and after execution to note any changes.

It is definitively a no go with python-central for me (python-support
is a saner tool). You do not need those build-dependencies on other
hachoir packages and you call a lot of unneeded debhelper scripts...

Well, packaging is not so hard, but I do not know whether I will be
able to maintain it appropriately afterwards. Upstream has already
a Debian build system which needs to be cleaned to meet an official
package requirements. Therefore, I retitle it as a RFP.

Hmm... I did not file any ITA on this package. Ahem... It is true,
there is another one. Let's ask him then... The bugs are force-merged,
so he should normally receive copies of our exchange.

I am bouncing your mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], since you forgot

I would rather say:

  Presently, ntfs-3g is available for all Debian architectures.
  However, upstream says it only works for 32-bit little-endian
  systems.

Debconf templates should not use the first person, so I would say:

  Many users reported it to work like a charm on i386. Unfortunately,
  the behaviour on ANY OTHER ARCHITECTURES is unknown so far.

And here:

Maybe upstream authors said that, because they have not tested it

* URL : http://powerpc-utils.ozlabs.org/
  Licence : IBM Common Public License
  Programming Lang: C, Perl, Bash
  Description : Utilities for maintenance of IBM PowerPC platforms

The powerpc-ibm-utils-papr package provides the utilities listed below
which are intended for the maintenance of IBM PowerPC platforms that
follow the POWER Architecture Platform Reference (sorry, still an IBM
internal document). Further documentation for each of the utilities is
available from their respective man pages and doxygen design documents.

* activate_firmware - concurrent firmware activation
  Used during concurrent firmware update operations to activate the
  new firmware image locally. This utility is invoked automatically
  when necessary.

* hvcsadmin - HVCS driver administration utility
  This is the hvcs driver administration utility which simplifies hvcs
  administration by providing a set of options for such functions
  as closing adapter targets using device mapping, querying console
  adapters, querying adapters based upon device node, gathering status,
  and closing all open adapters.

* ibmvscsis.sh - IBMVSCSIS driver init script
  When symlinked into start and stop run levels this script can provide
  vscsi server operation automation. It supports the standard array
  of init script options {start|stop|status|restart}. By design this
  script executes operations in silent mode. For extended vscsi server
  operations the vscsisadmin script should be used instead.

* rtas_dump - dump the contents of a rtas event
  A small script to front end rtas_event_decode. Just because pulling
  rtas events out of files is easier in a script.

* rtas_event_decode - dump the contents of a rtas event
  This is the back-end tool used by rtas_dump to actually parse out
  and print rtas events.

* rtas_ibm_get_vpd
  Used by the lsvpd utility to gather Vital Product Data that changes
  dynamically.

* serv_config/uspchrp - configure service processor settings
  A series of menus that can be used to update system service settings
  stored in NVRAM, which are used by the system's service processor.
  These settings include surveillance, boot, and remote maintenance
  policies. This utility is only usable on systems equipped with a
  service processor.

* set_poweron_time - configure time for system power-on
  A utility to set a time in the future for the system to automatically
  power on, if the system is powered off at that time.

* uesensor
  A utility to view the state of environental sensors on powerpc
  machines.

* update_flash - system firmware update utility
  A script that uses the rtas_flash kernel module to flash firmware.

* usysattn, usysfault - attention indicator utility
  A utility to view the status of the system attention (fault)
  indicators (LEDs), and to turn the indicators off when after an
  event has been serviced.

* usysident - identification indicator utility
  A utility to view the status of device identification indicators
  (LEDs), and to turn the indicators on and off.

* vscsisadmin - IBM Virtual SCSI Server (ibmvscsis) administration
  utilities
  This is the virtual scsi server administration utility which
  simplifies configuration, starting, and stopping of an IBM virtual
  SCSI server.  This script can be run standalone or it can be invoked
  via the ibmvscsis.sh init script. Configuration script documentation
  is provided in ibmvscsis.conf (8) and outlines the proper method
  for writing a well formed ibmvscsis configuration file.

  non-volatile RAM, which contains configuration variables for Open
  Firmware and the system's Service Processor (if any), as well as
  error records and Vital Product Data (VPD).

* bootlist - boot configuration utility
  A script to view and set the list of devices with which the system
  will attempt to boot. Both the "normal" and "service" mode lists
  can be manipulated.

* ofpathname - translate logical device names to OF names
  Used by bootlist to convert between Linux logical device names and
  Open Firmware names.

* snap - system configuration snapshot
  A script to gather significant system configuration information. The
  script creates snap.tar.gz in the working directory which can be
  used for problem determination.

Great, but how can one checkout the repository? ;P

On a side note, it also seems there are no
archives for kicad-devel: 404 Not Found at
<http://lists.mose.flexserv.de/pipermail/kicad-devel/>.

So you rebuilt a complete upstream tarball, it seems the sane way to
go to my mind.

I would be glad to check your work and even contribute. What are the
URLs of the SVN repository and of the mailing-list?

BTW, that software is great; it seems it even supports exporting to
Cadstar format, but not Protel as far as I sought.

It would be a nice addition to Debian.

Bug#379855: ITP: miboot -- Linux bootloader for OldWorld PowerMac computers

2006-07-25 Thread Aurélien GÉRÔME
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

* Package name: miboot
  Version : 2.0
  Upstream Author : Benjamin Herrenschmidt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/debootloaders/trunk/miboot/
  Licence : GPLv2
  Programming Lang: C / m68k Assembly
  Description : Linux bootloader for OldWorld PowerMac computers

miBoot is not suitable for Debian in its upstream form, because it
requires prioprietary software (Metrowerks Codewarrior 4.0 Pro on
legacy MacOS) to build. Our goal is to provide a package buildable
by the GNU toolchain (a m68k toolchain on a powerpc environment). We
assembled a team for that.

miBoot is not maintained upstream anymore, so we will takeover the
maintainance. Our goal requires heavy modifications of upstream source
code, hence the version bumping compared to the former upstream 1.0d4
located at <http://penguinppc.org/historical/benh/>.

OK, there is a new upstream version available and some bugs
to look at. As I have other things to do in the mean time, the
merging/testing/fixing may take one or two weeks, but no more.

The same goes for the co-maintainance of ircd-hybrid.

Hi,

I adopted iroffer (#211995) and after some work on it, I managed to
get it building and working on any architectures.

Anyway, my sponsor want to upload it on amd64 which is not authorized
currently.

Therefore, could you remove the following line from
Packages-arch-specific and propagate the changes to Debian's running
DAK, please?

I merged your work with mine. You just left a little error during
