 be your ~/bin scripts, /etc files, personal notes, résumés, and any such
 file that would be awkward to contain in a wholly separate directory

I read description of program, and its first sentence is "I decided to

If "foo" is bash function, then "type foo" outputs its body,
pretty-printed.  So, here is complex example from upstream website:

_fn () {
for arg ; do
done=3; echo done; done
}

Here is output of "type _fn":

_fn is a function
_fn () 
{ 
for arg in "$@";
do
done=3;
echo done;
done
}

So, we can put script into body of function, and bash would pretty-print
it. Unfortunately, it eats comments. Hope this idea could be of use to

security-related issue (see #516394) in 2017. Here I intend to apply
apporiate patches and provide following binary packages:

axfrdns
===

 axfrdns reads a zone-transfer request in DNS-over-TCP format from its
 standard input, and responds with locally configured information.

dnscache


 When a browser wants to contact www.debian.org, it first asks a DNS
 cache, such as dnscache, to find the IP address of www.debian.org.
 .
 Internet service providers run dnscache to find IP addresses
 requested by their customers.  If you're running a home computer
 or a workstation, you can run your own dnscache to speed up your web
 browsing.

tinydns
===

 tinydns is general-purpose DNS server that accepts iterative DNS
 queries from hosts around the Internet, and responds with locally
 configured information.
 .
 This program is used by network administrators to publish the IP
 addresses of their computers; this package is unlikely to be useful
 for regular workstation.

rbldns
==

 rbldns is a special-purplose DNS server, that provides information
 about blacklisted IP addresses. This information is typically used by
 email software in effort to stop spam.
 .
 For more information about this technique, see RFC 6471.

walldns
===

 walldns accepts iterative DNS queries for in-addr.arpa domains from
 hosts around the Internet, and supplies generic responses that avoid
 revealing local host information.

I plan to maintain this package myself, keeping debianization in following
Git repository:

Hello.

Essentially, I stalled on #927254 (in libjs-vue-router dependency).
Since I am not capable of resolving it myself, I patiently wait for
someone (presumably, from JS team) to fix it. Your help would be very
valuable.

Current debianization of laminar in https://salsa.debian.org/debian/laminar.
Patches (no pull-requests, please) are welcome.

Bug#929339: RFP: qsmtp - drop-in replacement for qmail STMP programs

[Dmitry Bogatov]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

Qsmtp is a drop in replacement for the qmail SMTP programs qmail-smtpd
and qmail-remote. That means you just change your startup scripts to use
Qsmtpd instead of qmail-smtpd and most things will work as before.

The initial point was a heavily patched qmail-smtpd to get some decent
antispam features. This was then rewritten from scratch into a new
binary that was designed to allow easy extension to new mail filters.
Another design goal was to be 100% IPv6 clean.

  • Fast and small: written in plain C
  • IPv6 clean
  • Many antispam modules included, e.g. SPF, IP blacklists, domain
blacklists, badmailfrom, helo filtering
  • Easy API to add your own spamfilters
  • For vpopmail hosts: does not create bounces for non-existing users
  • Tested: includes unit tests, nightly checks available

I do not exclude, that it may include support for musl for future. I am
not sure, whether overly generic name now is worse then misleading
source package name in future.

There is no change of `debian/control'. I do not fully understand what

I am not language expert, but last entry seems overly complicated. What
about "Do not install README into /usr/share/perl5."?

Bug#922643: ITP: build-alternative -- helper to build Debian package with diet libc

Oh, it seems that mentors.debian.net (or lintian.debian.org?) have too
old version of lintian installed. Since generally DSA use stable
release, I am not sure, whether it could be fixed before release.

Remember, Lintian, even its last version, could be wrong.

 * Since version 1-2 was rejected and I did not re-uploaded it, your
   version will become 1-2, not 1-3.

 * Why do you replace debhelper-compat with debhelper? It is step
   backward.

 * There must be newline after signature line in `debian/changelog'.

All-in-all, I see little improvement in your revision.

Probably, we could just leave things as-is, and make new revision when
need arise (bugs reported/new upstream version released).  I am sorry,
if it feels as wasted time.

 system with a system that treats undo history as what it is: a
 branching tree of changes. This simple idea allows the more intuitive
 behaviour of the standard undo/redo system to be combined with the

 history can in some cases be stored more efficiently, allowing more
 changes to accumulate before Emacs starts discarding history.

Bug#915356: RFA: eoconv -- convert text files between various Esperanto encodings

[Dmitry Bogatov]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I did not use this package lately, so I request an adopter for the
eoconv package. Prospective maintainer will need some knowledge of perl.

The package description is:
 Esperanto is written in an alphabet of 28 letters. However, only 22 of
 these letters can be found in the standard ASCII character set. The
 remaining six -- `c', `g', `h', `j', and `s' with circumflex, and `u'
 with breve -- are not available in ASCII. Various encoding systems
 have been developed to represent Esperanto text in printed and typed text.
 eoconv program converts between them.

Bug#915354: RFA: sent -- simple plaintext presentation tool

[Dmitry Bogatov]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I do not do many presentation lately, and would like someone to take
over `sent'. Package is rather small, uses recent debhelper and upstream
does not make frequent releases.

The package description is:
 sent does not need LaTeX, libreoffice or any other fancy file format,
 it uses plaintext files to describe the slides and can include images
 via farbfeld.  Every paragraph represents a slide in the
 presentation.
 .
 The presentation is displayed in a simple X11 window. The content of
 each slide is automatically scaled to fit the window and centered so
 you also don't have to worry about alignment. Instead you can really
 concentrate on the content.

Bug#915357: RFA: clues-emacs

[Dmitry Bogatov]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I no longer use Emacs, so I orphan all my Emacs packages. Description of
clues-emacs:

Description-en: cream/brown/orange color theme for Emacs
 Clues was initially based on a Visual Studio theme called 'Blues 'n
 Roots', however it's a long way from looking much like it, aside from
 the occasional color accent, Blues (despite its name) has a more
 toasted caramel flavor. Clues on the other hand is made up of cooling
 colors with a couple of flecks of light cream/brown/orange to break
 up any monotony, with yellow/gold rainbow-delimiters.

Thank you. I used my @kaction account on salsa, and now it worked.
So now sources of 2.88dsf-60 are on `master' branch on `debian/sysvinit'
repository.

Seems like a good idea. So, I made two commits on top of
debian/2.88dsf-60, that bring back Uploaders and make Vcs-* fields point
to common debian/sysvinit repository.

Did not upload yet, but Ian, if you want -- go ahead.

You are right. I am sorry about being so reckless to upload.
I made a commits, that revert changes to LSB headers and add Lintian

FWIW, let me introduce myself.

 * my first package dates back to 2014
 * I am DM for about two years, and DD for week or so
 * I maintain several command-line tools, including:
   + cdist configuration management system
   + dvtm terminal multiplexer
   + inotify-tools
   + gdbm
   + mmh mail user agent
   + tup build system
   + bcron (implementation of cron interface)
   + ...
 * I contribute to Haskell team
 * I used to contribute to Emacs team (no longer use Emacs)
 * I write in almost any language, except Java and JavaScript
 * I strongly dislike interfacing anything, that is not usable from tty
 * I strongly prefer Unix way to put-it-all-in way
 * what is most important, I maintain runit supervision and
   initialization system

That is why I am here. runit uses bin:initscripts to do what must be
done at system boot, and for every daemon {foo} falls backs on
/etc/init.d/{foo} if native runscript {foo} is not present. While I do
my best to provide runscript packages, there is ~1300 daemons in Debian.

Should sysvinit get removed from Debian, so are those ~1300 scripts. In
case of such calamity, to keep runit system viable option I would have
to either conjure thousand runscripts instantly, or take burden of
maintaining those sysvinit scripts. I'd like to prevent such a
nightmare.

Yes, I have admit it. I made quite rushy upload to experimental.  I
wanted to get things moving. I was scared by talks in @debian-devel,
number of NMU and age of RFA bug.

Somewhy GitLab does not allow me to push into debian/sysvinit, so I
pushed to my branch.

Every DD should be able to push in every repo under debian/ namespace,
right?

Also, maybe it worth creating separate namespace for sysvinit/startpar/insserv?

My repository is fork of 'debian/sysvinit'. As far as I can tell, the
following work was done on debian/sysvinit:

 * import history from alioth up to 2.89-59.10
 * create (very) incomplete upgrade to 2.90 in branch dgit/experimental

 * incorporated NMU 2.89-59.11
 * modernized package a bit

Sysvinit have undecided maintainance status for years, which prevented
me from taking actions previously. But now danger is grave and immediate
(see recent discussions about removal of sysvinit on debian-devel@), so
I took libery to take action right now.

I am sorry, if I stepped on someone's toes. I would greatly appericate
any help in maintaining sysvinit.

Oh, and surely, while I did my best to not introduce any functional
changes in 2.89-60, brave souls to test upload are more then welcome.

 the occasional color accent, Blues (despite it's name) has a more
 toasted caramel flavor. Clues on the other hand is made up of cooling
 colors with a couple of flecks of light cream/brown/orange to break
 up any monotony, with yellow/gold rainbow-delimiters.

I read manpage on github, but did not understood, what exactly this
program provides.  Can it replace creation system users for dropping
privileges?

Bug#835276: ITP: mmh -- set of electronic mail handling programs

[Dmitry Bogatov]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Dmitry Bogatov <kact...@gnu.org>

* Package Name : mmh
  Version  : 0.3-1
  Upstream Author  : markus schnalke <mei...@marmaro.de>
  Url  : http://marmaro.de/prog/mmh/
  License  : BSD-3-clause
  Programming Lang : C
  Description  : set of electronic mail handling programs

 This is the mmh mail user agent (reader/sender), a command-line based mail
 reader that is powerful and extensible.  nmh is an excellent choice for
 people who receive and process a lot of mail.
 .
 Unlike most mail user agents, mmh is not a single program, rather it is a
 set of programs that are run from the shell.  This allows the user to
 utilize the full power of the Unix shell in coordination with mmh.
 .
 Mmh is a modified version of the electronic mail handling system nmh.
 Nmh (new MH) itself was originally based on the package MH-6.8.3, and
 was intended to be a (mostly) compatible drop-in replacement for MH.
 In contrast, mmh is not intended to be a drop-in replacement for nmh,
 rather mmh breaks compatibility to nmh in order to modernize and
 simplify it.

 Git repository:
