Bug#765336: RFP: black-hole-solver -- Solver (C API + CLI program) for "Black Hole" Solitaire and "All in a Row" Solitaire

[Juhani Numminen]

Control: affects 765336 kpat pysolfc

Hi all,

Shlomi Fish mentioned[1] that potential user interfaces for black-hole-solver
would be KDE's patience kpat[2] as well as PySolFC. That's why I'm setting the
"affects" information in the bug system.

I assume you can fix gcc-doc-defaults bug #905022 after gcc-8-doc becomes
available?

(I don't intend to become a maintainer for this package.)

One of those RC bugs is #907496 libcurlpp0: Always fails with "No URL set!".
Out of curiosity, I'd like to know what is your simple fix regarding that –
I was looking through RC bugs and tried to confirm that one but curlpp
seems to work just fine on my machine.

If you have some specific suggestions regarding #907496 please post them
there, for the benefit of a future maintainer/bug-squasher :)

Cheers,

Bug#872355: ITP: node-is-module -- Node.js code to check if a string is an ES6 module

[Juhani Numminen]

   Description : Node.js code to check if a string is an ES6 module
  This simple code checks whether a string is the source of an ES6 module. It
  doesn't actually execute the code and doesn't check other module types and
  doesn't check other module types, so source strings without module loaders
  aren't recognized as modules.


The phrase "and doesn't check other module types" is repeated in the 
description. It made it into the uploaded package:

Bug#875553: ITP: cdiff -- Colored, incremental diff with side by side and auto pager support

[Juhani Numminen]

Hello Michael,

Michael Banck kirjoitti 12.09.2017 klo 10:35:

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Michael Banck 

* Package name: cdiff
   Version : 1.0
   Upstream Author : Matthew Wang
* URL : https://github.com/ymattw/cdiff
* License : BSD
   Programming Lang: Python
   Description : Colored, incremental diff with side by side and auto pager 
support

  Cdiff is a terminal based tool to view colored, incremental diff in a
  Git/Mercurial/Svn workspace or from stdin, with side by side and auto
  pager support.

This is Build-Depends for patroni, which I am also packaging. It will
have to conflict with colordiff as both ship /usr/bin/cdiff.


Please note that upstream is in the process of changing the command 
name[1], as the conflict was pointed out to them by a Fedora packager.


Furthermore, based on a quick search[2], patroni doesn't seem to require 
/usr/bin/cdiff anyway but rather the python module cdiff.


So, there should be no need to conflict with colordiff.

Regards,
Juhani

Bug#854018: ITP : node-is-npm -- Check if your code is running as an npm script

[Juhani Numminen]

Control: forcemerge 850251 854018

This is a duplicate of https://bugs.debian.org/850251

To check for existing ITPs before filing one, you can use wnpp-check
from the devscripts package:

$ wnpp-check node-is-npm

Bug#853062: node-is-obj is already in the archive

[Juhani Numminen]

Control: forcemerge 850131 853062

Hi!

Having been reading debian-devel, node-is-obj seemed familiar.

It turns out this module has been already packaged by Gaurav Juvekar
and the package has been uploaded on 25 Jan 2017.
I am merging the two ITPs.

Bug#686185: #686185: ITP: fortuner

[Juhani Numminen]

Hello.

Okay, now it seems I have lost my interest on fortuner package (ITP:
[1], RFS: [2]).

To get rid of this package, do I just close ITP and RFS bugs, remove
from mentors, and for the Git repository, is removing the directory
/git/pkg-games/fortuner.git from git.debian.org enough?

However, if anyone seems interested, there is now a successor:
fortuner2 [3] (a shell script :D) and it's available as a deb from my
Launchpad personal package archive [4]. And I haven't deleted the
original fortuner either.

Kind regards,
Juhani Numminen

 Just out of curiosity, I would like to ask a few questions regarding
 this ITP:

 * How is this superior to notify-send Today's Fortune $(fortune) ?

It actually is not. It just has a system tray icon :)

 * Why a big C++ app for something that can be accomplished with a
 single line of shell? (Which is also easier to tweak, if I want more
 choice than fortune -s and fortune -s -a)

This was started as a learning project, I wanted to learn some C++
code. But, I thought that someone not very familiar with shell, or
someone who prefers graphical UI might find this and maybe even use it,
so I released it under a free license.
And for a C++ I don't know if this actually is that big.

 Furthermore, there are a couple of shortcomings I see:

 * It does not respect XDG_HOME at all, the default config file is
   hardcoded to $HOME/.config/fortuner/fortuner.conf

 * The application is completely untranslatable (then again, fortune
   itself isn't translated either, but that has less messages of its
 own, too).

These shortcomings will need to be fixed (probably you meant
XDG_CONFIG_HOME).

 But, in the end, my main issue is that it really is not much more
 than a ~20 line shell script, except it is in C++. So instead of
 packaging this, I would suggest writing a shell script instead, and
 putting that in fortune-mod (along with a Suggests: on libnotify-bin).

This could be an option. I hadn't really considered that.

Thank you for your reply and criticism.

Juhani Numminen
