Bug#483627: RFA: xsupplicant -- 802.1x and 802.11i supplicant (client)
Package: wnpp Severity: normal It's time for xsupplicant to get a new maintainer or be removed from the archive entirely. At one time there were a few obscure EAP methods which xsupplicant supported that wpasupplicant did not. There were also a handful of workarounds for buggy authenticator implementations that resulted in xsupplicant working in cases where wpasupplicant did not. To the best of my knowledge, this is no longer the case. Additionally, while upstream is still active, they've shifted their efforts away from the 1.2 branch in favor of a complete rewrite which is focused primarily on Windows. If there are no takers, I will ask for its removal sometime in the next couple of weeks. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.25-2-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- Eric Evans [EMAIL PROTECTED] signature.asc Description: Digital signature

These days there are no circumstances that I am aware of where wpasupplicant is not the better choice. Upstream for xsupplicant has undergone a complete rewrite with a strong focus on Windows (the 2.x versions of xsupplicant will not even compile on Linux). The older 1.x versions are effectively unmaintained (the last release was on 2006-10-08). Popcon suggests that usage is quite low with only 281 installations and 46 votes.

Bug#524135: Progress of Packaging
[ Patrick Datko ] > Package: #524135 > Severity: normal > > I wanted to know, how is the progress of packaging > this project, because I need this to package HBase. I've been meaning to update this report for some time, and I knew when I saw the ITP for HBase that today was the day. :) The truth is that I have not made any headway on this in quite sometime, and it's not for lack of time or motivation, (I'm also in need of this for a project). The reason I've held off is that (a) under ideal circumstances packaging/maintaining Thrift would be non-trivial, and (b) circumstances are far from ideal. I blogged[1] last year about the challenges of packaging Thrift, but the executive summary is that it covers a lot of different languages and frameworks. I had made it as far as 10 binary packages[2] and was still missing some popular ones (PHP for example). I'd hoped that some co-maintainers would step forward to help, but none did. [1]: http://blog.sym-link.com/2009/05/01/thrift_packaging.html [2]: http://git.debian.org/?p=users/eevans/thrift.git;a=summary Additionally, I've also become increasingly concerned about the state of the Thrift project. Thrift was open sourced 3 years ago and has been in the Apache Incubator for almost 2 years. During that time they've only managed to make one release, (which incidentally is unsuitable for my project[3]; we're forced to use a newer snapshot). Bugs are often disregarded or dismissed out of hand and patches languish for months (or longer). As of right now, there are 180 open bug reports[4], and some of those are quite serious[5]. [3]: http://cassandra.apache.org [4]: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT [5]: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-601 (for example) So part of my reticence has been about taking on a package like this by myself, and part of it is that I'm not at all convinced that you can expect even nominal assistance from upstream. Having said that, if there were enough extra hands/eyeballs, I might be willing to pick this back up, but I'd also be fine with someone more enthusiastic taking it over entirely. -- Eric Evans eev...@debian.org signature.asc Description: Digital signature

There are so many reasons this is not a good idea; I'm not really sure where to begin. For starters, I don't have access to Thrift's subversion repository and patch submission would seriously inhibit my worflow. Likewise other Debian Developers don't have access to Thrift's repo, while they do have access to the collab-maint repo on git.debian.org. It's one thing to impede my work, but impeding the work of others in the Debian community means I will likely not get their help. Even if access weren't a problem, colocating the packaging source in the same VCS is still not an option because Debian package releases do not, and should not occur in lockstep with Thrift releases. Secondly, this bug report is for including Thrift in Debian. It's best to think of this as more of an aggregate work created from the upstream Apache project. Debian users are going to submit bugs to the Debian BTS not JIRA, some of these will no doubt pertain to Thrift itself, but many of them will pertain to the packaging and integration in Debian, and have nothing to do with Thrift. -- Eric Evans eev...@debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

In 1995, this engine was among the top 3 evaluated by UNLV. It was open-sourced by HP and UNLV in 2005. (Long description taken from the sourceforge project page, something better will need to be written) Whoever packages tesseract needs to be prepared to address a couple of serious problems: * The third-party source found in aspirin/ is non-free, it will either need to be stripped out, or the author convinced to relicense it. * The tesseract binary requires that it reside in the same directory as the tessdata directory, which must be writable. Nonetheless, the accuracy of tesseract is better than any of the other free alternatives I've tried; I think it would make a nice addition to the archive. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (700, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-2-686 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) -- Eric Evans [EMAIL PROTECTED] signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Bug#585905: Cassandra 1.0
[ Damien Raude-Morvan ] > I would like to help on cassandra packaging. What's current status ? Is there > a git repository somewhere ? Great, the more the merrier!

Right, packaging the dependencies is the first order of business, (and I don't have a current list, but this looks woefully short). A good place to start would be to suss out the full list of dependencies (including versions), check them against what is already packaged for Debian, and then start packaging the rest (and if you could copy this report with links to the RFP/ITPs, that'd be great).

Bug#1010648: marked as pending in golang-github-pierrec-lz4.v4
[ Nicholas D Steeves ] > Upload rejected because ftpmasters did not accept that the public domain > works had been implicitly relicensed by upstream as BSD-3-clause, > because I missed one Linux kernel image file in the test data (which > needs source to be DFSG free and for license compliance; this one is > admittedly serious), and because there was some incredulity about the > licensing of other test data. With the exception of the Linux kernel > image (absent in v2), the licensing of same test data was not considered > a problem for golang-github-pierrec-lz4 (v2). > > So for now progress towards fulfilling this ITP is blocked, and thus > progress towards Syncthing 1.19.2 is blocked. I believe it would be > unwise to exclude all test data from a +dfsg orig tarball (and disable > the tests), because this would expose Syncthing users' data to greater > potential risk than using an older version of Syncthing with a > golang-github-pierrec-lz4 (v2) with CI coverage. This is now a blocker on a recent upstream release of golang-github-gocql-gocql as well. I understand the argument about excluding test data, but there is probably a point at which users would be better served by a golang-github-pierrec-lz4.v4 without (complete) test coverage, than they would be without syncthing, or a modern gocql driver. Perhaps we move forward with a repackaged upstream tarball while waiting for upstream to fix these issues? Cheers, -- Eric Evans eev...@debian.org signature.asc Description: PGP signature
