Bug#548817: RFA: guessnet
Package: wnpp Severity: normal Hello, it's been more than a year that I have stopped using guessnet. On top of that, I almost never use wireless networking, and I am not normally in range of a wireless network. Nor I own an access point. This means that I cannot do a good job maintaning it: I don't normally use it on wired to spot obvious problems myself (like a recent issue with pcap, see #529882), and I have trouble testing its new wireless scanning code which is something a lot of people seem to use. Therefore, I would like someone else to take over maintaning it. I can help with the code, explaining it, reviewing and improving patches and so on, but the main maintainer needs to be someone who uses guessnet, who can try and reproduce bugs, and test new releases. So here's the RFA. Let's see if someone steps up. Ciao, Enrico -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

It is useful, for example, to create configurable shellscripts or makefiles. . Besides retrieving values, it can dump the information in several convenient ways, like a set of sh exports commands that can be conveniently passed to eval. It can also use the configuration values to expand template files. . It can also be configured to support virtual configuration values that, if not present in the config file, are automatically computed from the existing values. This makes it convenient, for example, to get a "duration" value from a configuration file that only contains a "start date" and an "end date". . It is also easy to create plugins to provide custom templating systems, export styles, dynamic values and even custom configuration file parsers. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Coding itself, once you have > clear ideas about what you want to do, is quite straightforward. Wow, interesting. A few things come into my mind: 1. We take the Engine class, allow to configure another facet instead of game, and move it into libept. That allows others to build the interface they like on top of it, but this means that the interface code needs to be rewritten every time. 2. We change the Engine class to allow to configure another facet instead of game, and implement skins on top of goplay. The skin would customise the interface, and also specify the facet to use instead of 'game'. I don't know what this'd mean in terms of fltk interface code. 3. We implement goplay --learn, automatically enabled if argv[0] ends in 'learn', and we install both binaries. In the meantime, just because it was easy to do, I changed the engine to allow to customise the main facet used for navigation. I've also implemented a new commandline option, --go=facet, to try it out. I've committed the changes to svn at svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-games/software/ui Get a list of facets using: grep Facet /var/lib/debtags/vocabulary Then decide where you want to go and run: goplay --go=facet For example: goplay --go=admin goplay --go=devel goplay --go=office goplay --go=security goplay --go=sound goplay --go=use goplay --go=web Of course one can install an extra tag source with tag data to go in any other direction.

Implement an --ftags option similar to that in ept-tags Done and committed: give it a try. For kicks, I also implemented --secondary=facet to choose the facet to use instead of 'interface'. Note: --ftags can be a comma-separated list of tags, that will be ANDed: this means that you can do this, which is probably what you want: goplay --go=field --ftags="use::learning, role::program" I've just run that: the result is really nice! Your idea seems to nicely hit the spot. > I believe it would then also make sense to either use a more generic > facet than gaming by default or make the --facet option required, and > rename the tool and the dependent games-thumbnails package. But that is > just cosmetics. Note that goplay is written by the gnome game team, so not having gaming as a default would be a bit of a shame :) Also, if you require --facet, you can't just click and run the program, which takes half of the ease away. However, anyone's welcome to make a godebian program that shows like 6 big stilish icons one with every direction you'd like to go, and by clicking on an icon goplay is launched with the right options. The idea we discussed with Miriam, though, was something like to store a number of preset defaults inside the program, and choose them based on the program name. That way you can, for example, run it as 'golearn' and it will choose a different set of defaults. Turns out that this was rather easy to implement as well, so I did it. I took advantage of the opportunity for, in case of golearn, use as --ftags something like: "use::learning && (role::program || role::documentation)". I've looked around at the available facets, and I implemented this list of possible alternate names, all of which are implemented: goadmin golearn gonet gooffice goplay gosafe goweb Please try it out: does it do what you want? btw, should we reassign this bug to goplay, for filing purpose?

Sorry, but I don't get it. I'll try to answer anyway... You have 2 commands: smd-pull that propagates chenges made on the server to the client, and smd-push that does the opposite. These changes include adding a message, deleting one, renaming, updaing the header... I usually pull more frequently than push, so the updating cycle you are describing is not strictly necessary in smd. In any case, the words server and client don't make any real sense here, it is very symmetric. I think I'll (I'm also the upstream) develop some sort while-true script that will iterate pull and push and eventually notify the user if something goes wrong with some modern eye-candy technology. AFAIK OfflineIMAP gives you (or will give you soon) something more called always-connected-with-ther-server-to-fetch-mail-ASAP option that smd does not provide right now (and that I really don't miss: since pulling is quite fast for the moment I'm not missing the while true script either...). Moreover OfflineIMAP is well tested, and smd is not beeing a *very* young software.

So far there is no "smart" conflict solver, the software just tells you what is wrong, and which files (mails) are interested. It suggest you to "move away" one of them to finish the sync, then you help yourself (that usually means having on one of the two sides a copy of the same message with different flags, the you run mutt and press d on one of them). I'm not that convinced that the usecase you mention is that common, and at least for me, it seems more a place for software overdesign than software features. Remember here that this is a Mailbox, with an owner... your usecase is something like having 2 checkouts of the same software repository and deliberately making incompatible changes on the 2 checkouts and then committing... would you do that? not that often I bet. I'd like to keep the software simple, so unsless I really face this problem, I would avoid implementing this feature. Moreover, the software is layered: mechanisms are in C (and they are able to give upper layers enough information to detect your pattern), while policies are in a scripting language I like (deliberate choice was Lua) and it should be reasonably easy to not duplicate the message but simply add the flag.

Bug#536238: O: debtags-edit -- GUI browser and editor for Debian Package Tags
Package: wnpp Severity: normal Hello, I have fixed all serious or trivial bugs in debtags-edit and then orphaned it. The web editor is much better than debtags-edit in almost every respect, except it cannot be used offline; however, I myself do not use debtags-edit, and I do not enjoy maintaining it that much. GTK-- is not that fun to use (at least, for me); compiling takes ages, and I am not sure about a python rewrite because there are a few performance-critical bits in the code. Or maybe a python rewrite could be made that is based on apt-xapian-index for speed, but then changes in the tagging are not reflected in real time in the interface unless the index is rebuilt, or unless debtags-edit is run as root. Both of which are not ideal. Anyway, dealing with all of this would be so low in my TODO list that it's not reasonably going to happen in at least a couple of years, so it's sensible to orphan debtags-edit so that anyone interested in an GUI offline tagging interface can pick it up if they wish.

Zack was providing some metapackages to have all dependencies installad with one single apt-get line; this stuff is not needed anymore. He should remove that stuff.

Not as far as I know, and I'm not sure it would be possible. We talked about it in the pm-utils list, but it does not sound feasible. pm-utils achieves lots of flexibility by using rather complex shellscripts that source a large library of useful functions. Running those shellscripts on the freerunner takes seconds of real time: http://www.mail-archive.com/pm-ut...@lists.freedesktop.org/msg01952.html It also implements a "cancel resume" exit code from hooks, that is currently used to resuspend right away if the phone ususpended just because you unplugged your USB cable. Normal pm-utils won't be able to support that anytime soon, but they agreed to standardise the exit code (see the whole thread linked earlier). The lack of quirks support is not as bad as it sounds, as you'd use pm-utils-light on embedded hardware where you generally have an intimate relationship with the hardware and are either in a position to fix the drivers getting rid of the quirks, or in a need to handle quirks with hardware-specific custom code. I'd say that the systems that need quirk support are more than fast enough to handle standard pm-utils without issues. I wouldn't suggest people to install pm-utils-light unless they really know what they are doing.

Bug#548817: Orphaning guessnet
Hello, the RFA bug has been open for one year. There has been no adoption, and I'm guilty of not even having managed to get back to the two "I'm new, where do I start?" offers.

Bug#602197: O: launchtool
Package: wnpp Severity: normal Hello, I'm not doing any work on launchtool, and I'm not using it, so it's time to orphan it. I had a plan to dismember launchtool and merge the various parts in start-stop-daemon and in a simpler non-daemon, supervisor tool. However, I also don't see myself having time or need to do that anytime soon. For reference, I post here the plan I had for launchtool to transcend to something better. Most of the work should be rather straightforward, as it's based on the existing code. Most of the code in common/ is now maintained in the wibble library (libwibble-dev) and can just be dropped. It can all be a fun programming excercise for people who have more time than I do. * The plan for transcendency Launchtool is a bit like start-stop-daemon. The differences are: - launchtool is more featureful; - start-stop-daemon is more tested. Ideally, features should be ported from launchtool to start-stop-daemon. The best way to do so, is to remove daemonisation and pidfile features from launchtool and just turn it into an application wrapper that handles restart policies and logging. Features that are already in start-stop-daemon: -k, --kill[=signal] --check -d, --daemon, “daemon” -n, --no-daemon --pidfile, “pidfile” --no-pidfile --piddir=dir, “piddir” --chroot=dir, “root dir” --chdir=dir, “start dir” -u, --user=user, “user” -g, --group=group, “group” --umask=mask, “umask” Features that can be implemented in a simple wrapper/supervisor command: -L, --infinite-runs, “infinite runs” --no-infinite-runs --wait-times=t1,t2,... , “wait times” --good-running-time=seconds, “good running time” --forwarded-signals=sig1,sig2,... , “forwarded signals” --blocked-signals=sig1,sig2,... , “blocked signals” --limit-cpu=seconds, “cpu limit” --limit-file-size=1024b-blocks, “file size limit” --limit-data-memory=1024b-blocks, “data memory limit” --limit-process-count=count, “process count limit” --limit-open-files=count, “open files limit” --limit-core-size=1024b-blocks, “core size limit” --restrict-environment, “restrict environment” --no-restrict-environment --allowed-env-vars=var1,var2,... , “allowed env vars” --log-launchtool-output=target, “launchtool output” --log-launchtool-errors=target, “launchtool errors” --log-child-output=target, “command output” --log-child-errors=target, “command errors” --silent-restart-status=value, “silent restart status” --silent-restart-time=seconds, “silent restart time” --stats, “stats” --no-stats Other TODO items: - Port to wibble. - Improve commandline help: give a summary of the kind of options and implement --help-something subpages to avoid cluttering the screen presenting them all in a single run - Improve environment management; see if there's a "proper" way to create a clean environment - Add an option to directly execute command and arguments instead of passing them to sh -c Ciao, Enrico -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Of course I do, but this is the only one that integrates with the existing Debian network configuration. You have a way in /etc/network/interfaces to specify different configurations for a network interface, and to use an external command to choose the right one. Then you have THREE (maybe four) packages with a wonderful network detection routine, but NONE OF THEM can be used as that external command. For this reason, having a laptop and wanting to stay as close to the debian way as possible, I've just insulated their detection code and put it in a simple and small command that does the job, following the Unix tradition of doing things. Given guessnet, you could reimplement all the other similar packages with simple shell scripts (it could be an interesting idea for an examples directory, now that I think about it), but it would be a mess to use the other packages to provide a shell script that does for ifupdown what guessnet does.

Bug#321654: RFA: debtags: Enables support for package tags -- optional
Package: wnpp Severity: normal Hello, I've recently been making a new debtags version at least once a day: either some chunk of the gcc migration, or yet another APT ABI change, or who knows what's going to happen tomorrow. I'm tired, and I haven't been writing any line of code for it anymore since I can't remember how much time. I want someone to do the Debian maintenance for it; someone who knows what he or she is doing, and who can do uploads by him/herself. I want to be upstream for debtags, to do 'make dist' and to have someone that picks it up from there. Debtags is not a trivial package: it should be someone comfortable with automake/autoconf and with packaging C++ libraries. Since the goal is to save my time to do coding, this time I'll have to turn down offers from people who need sponsoring, or people who lack experience.

Oh, nice! Would you prefer comaintainership? Can start to do team maintenance and leave the RFA open. > What version tracking do you use? Subversion, at: svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/debtags/debtags Activity on debtags is pretty quiet these days, as I'm mainly working on libapt-front and debtags-edit. You may take advantage of this to give a look around and fix what you think is broken. Some notes about the package: - libraries are intended to be static-only, as the ABI is not stabilised yet. This is why no shared library is built. - however, the package generates language bindings, which need to be shared objects, which need to be compiled with -fPIC. That's the reason of the double compile run, and that's the reason of the -pic library package. Note: I'd like to find a better way (that is, handled automatically by libtool) to do this. - the devel library install the headers in /usr/include/debtags-1.0/debtags, so that headers for multiple versions of the devel library can coexist - to ease the work of developers using the library, pkg-config and automake files are provided and installed by the -dev package. There is also doxygen-generated documentation. - debtags's postinst rationale: - if it's being run for the first time, copy the database and vocabulary files shipped with the package into the location where apt's downloader expects to find the previously downloaded files. - debtags update is run. If we're offline, apt will fallback to the previously downloaded files, possibly the ones shipped with the package if we're offline on the first update run. Some notes about the bugs: #246678: mkbrowser script shows warnings, invoke debtags with bad syntax and segfault mkbrowser hasn't been in my target for a while. It needs to be rewritten, or dropped. The existance of debtags-based GUIs are making it less useful, although no GUI still exist that experiments with the smart hierarchy algorithm like mkbrowser does. #304832: doesn't support arch-specific packages This needs to be fixed in the central database. This bug is left open on debtags because there's no package for the central database. #320791: confused on amd64 I still haven't managed to work on this. #144046: general: Sections are not finely grained Old, historical bug. I intend to close it pretty soon. Namely, once me and aj have done some more rounds of tag updates on the Packages file and I see that the procedure is working. #277626: debtags: should support running as non-root user I'm keeping this bug open because there are some ideas in my comment to it. #290457: debtags: add a non-free/crontrib group of tags?

Bug#321654: New packages uploaded to experimental
Hello, after a big code frenzy with Peter "Mornfall" Rockai I've uploaded to experimental a new version of the entire debtags chain, plus the new addition *libapt-front*! libapt-front brings together libapt and libdebtags into a base library for package managers. It is very well done, nice to use, sane interface, incredibly stable given its very young age. During the work, I discovered I was doing a very silly use of overloaded virtual methods and that triggered a heavy refactoring of tagcoll and debtags as well. Benjamin, I'd be happy to assist you in porting packagesearch over. Notes worth mentioning: Tagcoll::Tagcoll* became Tagcoll::* TagSet -> OpSet FacetSet -> OpSet All the functions related to Debtags::Package have now gone. libapt-front should be used instead, with the added feature that it doesn't crash like the old Debtags::Package code used to do. I repeat, I'd be happy to assist. The good news is that the new interface tends to make so, so, so much sense! Now both debtags and debtags-edit use libapt-front. Unfortunately I had to split libdebtags1 and debtags again to avoid a circular dependency. That's unfortunate both for the time we spent with the merge and because now again I have one extra package to maintain. However, it was the only option. We really need some extra debian maintainers for Debtags. All of this is in experimental only. I'm planning to upload everything to unstable as soon as: 1) bug #321799 has been closed. This prevents libapt-front from building unless one patches its /usr/include/apt-pkg/policy.h with the trivial patch I posted in the BTS 2) packagesearch is ported and uploading to unstable I don't break it. Expect big news from this new libapt-front! Ciao, Enrico -- GPG key: 1024D/797EBFAB 2000-12-05 Enrico Zini <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> signature.asc Description: Digital signature
Bug#262706: O: log2mail
Package: wnpp Severity: normal log2mail is a daemon watching logfiles and mailing lines matching patterns. It server a purpose similar to logcheck but does it in realtime, so it can be used as a nice way to implement alerts: programs log things, and you can get a mail (or a sms via a mail-to-sms gateway) as soon as bad things are spotted. It's been a very useful tool for me in my past job, and I took over maintenance from the previous maintainer. log2mail has been quite a critical application for us there. More than a year ago I quit that job, and I'm not using log2mail anymore. The package is in a pretty good shape and does not usually need much care: I did around one upload per year, and I just made one upload fixing all bugs, bringing the whole build system up to date and in line with the last standards-version, porting to cdbs. At the time I took over the package, upstream was happy to hand also upstream maintenance to me. The code is simple, linear and quite well written. At that time, upstream told me if I couldn't maintain log2mail anymore, he would take it back. Time has passed from there, and I sent him a mail asking him what he intends to do. I'm orphaning the package not because it's a burden, but because my other Debian activities are occupying most of my time already and I feel I can't commit to being a good maintainer for it anymore.

Bug#262927: RFH: Debtags - Evolution of package metadata
Package: wnpp Severity: normal X-debbugs-cc: debian-devel@lists.debian.org, [EMAIL PROTECTED] The size of Debian increases, and the "Sections:" system has proven unable to scale to keep pace with it. There has been much consensus around a multiple tags per package solution: the Debian Package Tags system is a working implementation. Debtags is one of the most interesting prospective expansions of the Debian package metadata, it contains promosing prototypes and has received very good feedback so far. The problem is, there are only three people actively working on it: Erich Schubert takes care of the central tag archive at http://debian.vitavonni.de/packagebrowser/ and part of the tag vocabulary. Thaddeus H. Black takes care of debram, which is another independent effort to improve package metadata and is intended to eventually merge into debtags. Enrico Zini (me) takes care of all the implementation and Debian packaging of the system components, and the other part of the tag vocabulary. I find myself responsible for too many things, and as the system evolves I can't keep up with it. Currently, it already consists of 6 source packages: libtagcoll Functions for handling collections of tagged items. tagcoll Commandline wrapper around libtagcoll, and generic manipulation tool for tagged collections. tagcolledit GUI interface for mass-editing of tagged collections. libdebtags Function for handling the Debian package metadata, extended with tag informations debtags Commandline wrapper around libdebtags, and administration tool for the Debian Package Tags debtags-edit GUI interface for searching packages and updating their categorization This is their dependency interrelationship: libtagcoll tagcoll Depends on libtagcoll tagcolledit Depends on libtagcoll libdebtags Depends on libtagcoll debtagsDepends on libdebtags debtags-edit Depends on libdebtags To keep up with the expansion and evolution of the project, we need more people. The main, extremely sought help is to have someone taking care of the Debian packaging, so that I can focus on being a productive "upstream": I'm a better software designer/developer than Debian maintainer, and I'm spending too much time in figuring out how to setup library versions that I could better spend in implementing some long-awaited feature. Other "job openings" could be: - Creating library bindings to languages different than C++ - Gtk-- developers to help on the GUI tools - C++ developers writing test cases - People taking care of part of the the facet/tag structure, providing new know-how for categorizing things we don't know much about, writing descriptions, reorganizing the taxonomy - People using debtags and its libraries in their applications, or making sample applications that make use of the libraries - C++ and i18n/l10n experts to help in taking things away from the C locale - People taking care of the web space of the project Please consider joining the team: working on the Debian Package Tags is extremely interesting, rewarding and overall a big lot of fun!

Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name: polygen Version : 1.0.6 Upstream Author : Alvise Spanò <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://www.example.org/ * License : GPL Description : Generate random sentences according to a grammar definition PolyGen is a program for generating random sentences according to a grammar definition, that is following custom syntactical and lexical rules. Formally, it is an interpreter of a language itself designed to define languages, where to interpret means executing a source program in real time and eventually outputting its result. Here a source program is a grammar definition, the execution consists in the exploration of such grammar by selecting a random path and the result is the sentence built on the way. Though PolyGen is quite a seriuos piece of software then, what else would be more noble for it than being used as a parody tool for linguistical habits, stereotypes and trends of this foolish era? Principles of parody are focusing a ridiculous topic and eventually abstracting its rules and schemes (here in terms of a grammar definition) by which reproducing it through the variatio device. And randomization is perfect at this purpose thanks to its purely asemantic behaviour =:) Please see: http://polygen.org/web/Home.444.0.html Ciao, Enrico -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-1-686-smp Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you get pizza from a fast food shop, you rightously get digestion problems and lots of pimples! And if there is cheese inside the border, that's not pizza: refuse to pay and move to another restaurant! And "Pizza ai peperoni" is pizza with peppers, not with hot sausage!

It is designed to provide a RDBMS agnostic API for handling database operations. LuaDBI also provides support for prepared statement handles, placeholders and bind parameters for all database operations. . Lua DBI is a better alternative to lua-sql since it supports prepared statements. lua-dbi is a dependency of the prosody jabber server. unfortunately it is not a drop in replacement for lua-sql, that is still used by other libraries and thus cannot be removed from the archive. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

The package follows the Debian Lua policy: I'd suggest to put the package in the alioth svn repository pkg-lua. If you agree I'll add you to the team members. I had a plan to migrate all of that to git, so if you prefer the latter vcs I'm with you and you should use that. To get started, I think the package should be very very close to lua-zip, that you could use as a template. JFYI: all projects previously hosted on luaforge are now on github: https://github.com/luaforge/lualdap even if the are no tarballs for this project, just tags, that is fine too.
