Bug#844207: RFP: mylg -- Combines the functions of the different network probes in one network diagnostic tool

[James Andrewartha]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name: mylg
  Version : 0.2.6
  Upstream Author : Mehrdad Arshad Rad 
* URL : http://mylg.io/
* License : MIT
  Programming Lang: Go
  Description : Combines the functions of the different network probes in 
one network diagnostic tool

mylg provides many network diagnostic functions, including querying looking
glasses, DNS lookup in different countries, local ping and traceroute, HTTP
ping, and port scanning. It can look up RIPE (ASN, IP/CIDR) and PeeringDB
information and includes a web dashboard along with a traditional CLI with
vi and Emacs modes, autocomplete and history.

Upstream already provides .debs, although I don't know how they're generated.

needed, synctool will restart or reload any daemons as you wish. synctool can 
be easily extended to do other administrative tasks such as checking daemons, 
checking free disk space, installing packages, etc. or any other task you want 
it to do.

 This cannot be packaged as it is, because sogod (and probably other
 GPL'ed components) links against libNGStreams, which links against
 libssl.  Either an OpenSSL exception clause is needed or NGStreams
 should be ported to GnuTLS.
 
 Plus, the required dependency (SOPE) is, at first glance, some kind of
 sophisticated reimplementation of GDL2 (gnustep-dl2 source package in
 Debian).  At least the EOControl library will clash with the one we
 provide.
 
 BTW, are you really using this beast or just filing the RFP cause
 it's nice to have it in Debian?

I am using it, from upstream's repository. Since they provide packages
already, I'm not too fussed about it being in Debian proper, although it'd
be less likely to have random dependency breakages if it were. So you can
close this bug if you want, but I would appreciate you contacting upstream
about what's stopping it being in Debian.

 So if it is packaged for Debian you'd be a regular user of the official
 (i.e., Debian) packages, right?

Yes, I would.

 No, the bug should not be closed.  These issues are more or less trivial
 to resolve.  I was even considering retitling it to ITP, but some things
 are worrying me, namely:
 
   * SOPE and SOGo are huge.  I mean, HUGE.  It would take me weeks
 to examine the code and figure out how these things work, at
 least at the basic level.
   * I am not a fan of web-based mail and calendars, and I don't plan
 using such services.  If I package this, I'll run a test
 instance on some of my machines, but since it would be solely
 for testing purposes, I'm afraid I won't be able to discover all
 issues, or even manage to reproduce reported bugs.  Proper
 maintenance involves regular real-life usage...
   * I am not a user of Icedove/Iceowl, and I don't plan becoming
 one.  As I see from upstream's site, these clients connect with
 SOGo via special extensions, which need to be packaged, too.  I
 don't have the right skills for that.

SOGo should be able to be used by any compliant CalDAV client. I believe the
extensions are mainly to provide GroupDAV addressbook support and automatic
configuration, and are not essential - I don't use them.

   * The code has a high potential for security bugs, and a
 significantly higher maintenance burden because of that.
 
 So...  I think I'll attempt to package this, and see if it would be
 worth taking the risk.  (This will happen after the Squeeze release in
 any case.)  Meanwhile, if someone else is willing to bite the bullet, go
 ahead.

Thanks for giving it some thought.

You know those really annoying files that don't put everything in a

of all those problems for you, too. dtrx is simple and powerful. Just
use the same command for all your archive files, and they'll never

This is a compression program optimised for large files. The larger the
file and the more memory you have, the better the compression advantage
this will provide, especially once the files are larger than 100MB. The
advantage can be chosen to be either size (much smaller than bzip2) or
speed (much faster than bzip2). Decompression is always much faster than
bzip2.

Bug#361253: twill not required

[James Andrewartha]

Bernd Zeimetz wrote:
 Even more interesting: are the .conf files changed by zen while it is
 running? Then they wouldn't be allowed in /etc.

There is a page in the web interface that lets you edit the files -
/zport/About/zenossConfigs

 which should remove sysklogd/... while installing.
 - Maybe recommends: sendpage-server.
   
 I'm still a bit confused, I thought I need the client to send messages -
 or is zenoss able to listen for pager messages? Didn't look into that,
 but I guess I'll install them and have a look.

zenoss uses snpplib to connect to a sendpage server.

 - Grab winexe from samba4 packages, although it doesn't seem to be in
 http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-samba/branches/samba4/?rev=0sc=0 at all.
   
 winexe is a patch from http://eol.ovh.org/winexe/
 Unfortunately it contains one file with a big binary blob. I doubt
 that's something we can ship in Debian at all. I don't even know what
 that binary stuff in there is for, I guess it's a windows binary. But I
 did not look further into that now.

To quote from that page: samba4/source/winexe/winexesvc can be compiled by
crosscompiler or in Windows using Cygwin or Mingw32. If you compile service
under win after succesfull make, copy winexesvc_exe.c into
samba4/source/winexe/winexesvc/ directory. You can also use 'precompiled'
version of winexesvc_exe.c, which is included in diff file.

 From the other mail:
 
 Just FYI, the latest zope2.9 security update broke my zenoss install.
 
 did you figure out why? And what is needed to fix it? If you do, please
 let us know.

Hmm, I just re-upgraded and now it's working. Possibly I had an unclean
shutdown/startup last time.

Ah, I didn't actually look at the source, I stand corrected.

 Thanks for you input, very appreciated!
 I also found
 http://community.zenoss.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1551highlight= - I
 guess that will be helpful on packaging.

 Seems you're running zenoss under zope2.9, are you using Five which is
 delivered with zope2.9 or Five form the zenoss Products?

I'm using the Five from zope2.9 - the Five in zenoss caused an error,
googling revealed it to be from the older version shipped with zenoss so I
just deleted it.

Other things from reading http://bzed.de/debian/packages/zenoss/start
- My setup does use MySQL, I forgot to mention that.
- The pysnmp used is version pysnmp3 which isn't a stable release and there
are imports like
from pysnmp.compat.pysnmp2x import asn1, v1
- What are all the .conf files in $ZENHOME/etc for?
- A lot of the commands in bin are control programs for the various
processes
zen{xevent,modeler,perfsnmp,perfxmlrpc,process,ping,syslog,status,actions,trap,command}
