Bug#916692: #916692
Hi, any news on this one? Given the poor state the package is in, do you have the resources for an upload before buster release? Otherwise I plan to request a removal from testing once the soft freeze started (as autoremoval via #916691 did not happen). Bernhard R. Link -- F8AC 04D5 0B9B 064B 3383 C3DA AFFC 96D1 151D FFDC
Bug#916692: RFA: cuyo -- Tetris-like game
Package: wnpp Severity: normal I'm planing to drop maintaining cuyo. The upstream license situation is a bit complex and I lack the time to maintain a forked version. I'll request it removed from testing and get the package removed unless someone speaks up and wants to take over the package. The package description is: Cuyo, named after a Spanish relative adjective, shares with tetris that things fall down and how to navigate them. When enough "of the same type" come "together", they explode. The goal of each level is to blow special "stones" away, you start with. But what "of the same type" and "together" means, varies with the levels. Bernhard R. Link -- F8AC 04D5 0B9B 064B 3383 C3DA AFFC 96D1 151D FFDC
Bug#849773: O: libnss-extrausers
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
Hi,
I'm hereby orphaning libnss-extrausers, after neglecting it a bit for
too long. There is some open bug report with patches that do not apply,
and the whole thing got a bit out of date as nss is a moving target
(and the nss modules it was forked of are now very different).
So if you take it be ready for a large chunk of upstream work.
Packaging nss modules is also something of an unsolved problem with
multi-arch. (You can multi-arch them, but then people have to make sure
to install all the right architectures or get strange errors if they
forget), so that is no easy thing either.
Might perhaps best to just drop it and use the db backend instead (those
are not in another directory, but at least can keep them outside the
main files).
You can find the package in git at
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/libnss-extrausers.git/log/?h=debian
(including the last upload orphaning it).

Bug#717486: RFA: xfm -- X file and application manager
Package: wnpp Severity: normal I plan to request removal of xfm, as I think it is no longer useful (libmagic no longer makes definitions available to other packages, so xfm has a outdates copy and most users are no longer capable of using the interface as being trained to expect different behaviour by other graphic file managers. If you still consider it useful and want to maintain it, feel free to contact me or adopt it directly. I plan to request it's removal otherwise. (I'll have it removed from jessie now and currently plan to request removal from unstable after jessie released). The package description is: Xfm is a file and application manager program for the X Window System, based on the Xaw3d widget set. It provides virtually all of the features that you would expect in a file manager; move around your directory tree in multiple windows, move, copy or delete files, and launch programs with simple mouse operations. Directory displays are updated automatically in regular intervals when the contents of the directory change. The integrated application manager provides a kind of "shelf" onto which you can place your favorite applications, as well as the files and directories you are currently working with. It also allows you to access different groups of applications and files. User-definable file types let you specify a command to be executed when double-clicking on a file or dropping other files onto it. Last not least, xfm can automatically mount and unmount special devices like floppies as you open and close the corresponding directories (mount points). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Actually, it only needs sgid shadow and not suid root, but in the long run pam would be better, as that can (for example using unix_chkpwd if using pam_unix) work without any elevated priviledges. But such a change would be quite a big one (I think xlockmore gets pam wrong, which is some indication how hard it is. One might want to look into screen or vlock how they do it). It might make sense to move that work upstream first to see what is acceptable. As slock might also have other security relevant issues (like checking the new Ctrl-Alt-KPMultiply issue, which some screen lockers have) and thus be more complex than the whole rest, so it might make to split it out of this package, i.e. just drop it from suckless-tools source package.

Bug#647090: Review for the package on mentors.debian.net
Michael, I'm CCing you as it looks like you did not yourself to owner of bug 647090, thus likely not getting mails sent to this bug report. (Did you get the mail from Aron Xu, I'm quoting in this mail?). * Aron Xu [120120 15:59]: > I had a quick look at your package on mentors.debian.net, and here are > my comments: > > 1.As you have updated the package to use debhelper compatible level 8, > the use of source format 3.0 is highly recommended. What you need to > do is: > $ mkdir debian/source > $ echo "3.0 (quilt)" > debian/source/format > Then review your patches against the build system (*/config.[mk,h]) > and make them maintained using quilt in debian/patches/ . The patches also look like you do not need to patch anything at all, but some make command line argument could do the same trick. That would then also converting it to 3.0 (quilt) much easier. Related to this: > 4.debian/watch is missing. If you can, please add a watch file. More broad question: where is that .orig.tar file from? I cannot find anything on the website. If that is repackaged from some other tarballs, it should rather be a "3.0 (quilt)" with some component tarballs that then can be the original upstream files. > 2.Can you explain why usr/bin/slock should be setuid? I can guess that > it's an screen locker so it may need the privilege to do its job, but > since it is a potential security hole please document it in > README.Debian for it. slock seems to not support PAM thus only be quite limited in what authentication it supports. Perhaps it might be better to remove that then... Some other point: * It would be nice if dpkg-buildflags flags were used. (Or some other way to support DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=noopt, but dpkg-buildflags is easier and better). That would also solve the problem of not building -g by default as suggested by policy. Bernhard R.

Bug#383515: singular is difficult
I've just taken a look at it and singular's build system is in quite
a bad shape and I guess it will need many people to bring it into
an reasonable form. Perhaps the best would to package the parts included
in upstreams tarball from other sources. Like a ntl package and a
(once the license fix got applied upstream) omalloc package code and so on.
Once those are all packaged, the remaining parts should be relative
unproblematic.
If anyone wants to try any part of that and want a second pair of eyes

Bug#309899: ITP: libarchive -- functions for reading and writing streaming archives
package: wnpp Severity: wishlist I intent to package libarchive, a library for reading and writing archives. It seems to be quite robust and especially allows for special read functions (as I want to use it to read tar archives inside of ar archives without temporary files). To cite the manpage: The libarchive library provides a flexible interface for reading and writing streaming archive files such as tar and cpio. The library is inherently stream-oriented; readers serially iterate through the archive, writers serially add things to the archive. In particular, note that there is no built-in support for random access nor for in-place modifica- tion. When reading an archive, the library automatically detects the format and the compression. The library currently has read support for: o old-style tar o most variants of the POSIX ``ustar'' format, o the POSIX ``pax interchange'' format, o GNU-format tar archives, o POSIX octet-oriented cpio archives. The library automatically detects archives compressed with gzip(1), bzip2(1), or compress(1) and decompresses them transparently.

(And I may missing the right environment to test it, as most here is 2.2 or to importent to make such deep tests). Some things I saw in the first look: * The manpage: DESCRIPTION This manual page documents briefly the kmut command. This is a bit misplaces. Desription should describe the command, not the manpage. The "This manual page was written" is also best placed only at the end of the manpage. I'd suggest to place a "be careful" early (perhaps NAME part) and information about the supported kernels. (seems to need 2.4, if I read correct) * the package description should describe kernels it supports and the danger of the changing interface. I wonder, if "Priority: extra" might be better than "optional" * Strange .orig.tar.gz It has another md5sum than the file described in debian/copyright. (so filesizes and dates seem to be similar. repacked or is this download-cgi there strange?) * CVS-entries The .diff.gz contains a CVS directory. This should not slip in there.

|Description: Tetris-like game with very impressive effects.
| Cuyo, named after a Spanish possesiv pronoun, shares
| with tetris that things fall down and how to navigate them.
| When enough "of the same type" come "together", they explode.
| The goal of each level is to blow special "stones" away, you
| start with. But what "of the same type" and "together" means,
| varies with the levels. If you hear someone shout that a dragon
| is always burning his elephants, so that he is not able to blow
| the volcano away, there a good chances to find Cuyo on his
| screen.
| WARNING: It is known to successfully get many people away from
| more important things to do.

Thanks in advance,
