gtkpod needs libmp4v2 to be able to handle aac/mp4 files. Which is the
native format for the iPod, so... definitely useful. And I'd *love* to
see gtkpod in Debian built with libmp4v2 enabled.

Bug#548594: libplist adoption

[Julien BLACHE]

Hi,

You ITAed libplist back in september; what's the current status of this
ITA?

libplist gained quite a few interesting and useful features (like
iterators for dicts and arrays) recently, and it'd be nice to see a
newer version land in Debian.

If you need a sponsor for libplist (and related packages), I'd be happy
to help.

Thanks,

JB.

Bug#481804: icns upstream willing to package & maintain it

[Julien BLACHE]

Hi,

Mathew Eis, upstream of icns, is willing to package and maintain icns
in Debian.

He should ITP it soon.

I'm also interested in having icns in Debian, so if that doesn't
happen, I'll package it.

Bug#354560: ITP: iaxmodem -- software modem with IAX2 connectivity

[Julien BLACHE]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Julien BLACHE <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

* Package name: iaxmodem
  Version : 0.0.13
  Upstream Author : Lee Howard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://iaxmodem.sf.net
* License : GPL
  Description : software modem with IAX2 connectivity

 IAXmodem is a software modem written in C that uses an IAX channel (commonly
 provided by an Asterisk PBX system) instead of a traditional phone line and
 uses a DSP library instead of DSP hardware chipsets.
 .
 IAXmodem was originally conceived to function as a fax modem usable with
 HylaFAX, and it does that well. However IAXmodem also has been known to
 function with mgetty+sendfax and efax.

Note that iaxmodem includes modified versions of libiax2 and spandsp, both
libraries being GPL-licensed and statically linked into the iaxmodem binary.

The packaged version of the libraries cannot be used, either because they're
not current enough (as in "CVS HEAD 2 hours ago") or because of the
modifications applied for iaxmodem.

I am currently finishing up the packaging and feeding my patches to make
iaxmodem a daemon upstream.

JB.

Bug#354560: Invitation to join pkg-voip team (iaxmodem in NEW )

I'm happy to accept your invitation to the pkg-voip team :)

iaxmodem got rejected from NEW minutes ago due to licensing issues in
spandsp and libiax2; the spandsp and iax packages in the archive have
the same issues:
 - libiax2 has files under the GPL as well as files under the LGPL,
this needs to be clarified in the copyright file; as Mark Spencer is
the unique author, the README at the top level should be enough, but
...
 - spandsp
   - src/msvc is public domain
   - src/spandsp/mmx.h has no real license attached

I'll put the iaxmodem packaging in the SVN as soon as iaxmodem will be
accepted.

Thanks,

JB.

Just asked the same questions on pkg-voip a few minutes ago, reposting
here so they end up in the BTS too:
 - did they drop the dependency on php-jpgraph for the CDR part ?
 - did they drop the dependency on lame ?
 - did they drop the dependency on asterisk-perl ?

Unless you can answer YES to these 3 questions, FreePBX can't go in
Debian.

Bug#362157: O: tilp -- TI calculator <-> PC communication program for X

[Julien BLACHE]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

Hi,

I intend to orphan the tilp package.

The package description is:
 TiLP is a Texas Instruments calculator <-> PC communication program for
 Linux. It is able to use any type of link, like the original TI GRAPH-LINK
 (both black and grey cables), the homemade "$4 serial link", or the
 "$5 parallel link". It even supports the new TI GraphLink USB, using the
 tiglusb kernel module. See http://lpg.ticalc.org/.
 .
 With TiLP, you can transfer files from your PC to your Texas Instruments
 calculator, and vice-versa. You can also make a screen dump, a backup, transfer
 a backup to the calculator, or take control of your TI from your PC, or even
 install a new version of AMS on your calc !
 .
 You might be interested in the tidev-modules-source package which allows you
 to build a set of three kernel modules. These modules are three drivers for
 different link cables (serial, parallel, USB) which require running TiLP with
 root privileges. With these modules loaded and the appropriate rights on the
 device nodes, this won't be necessary.

You will probably be interested in the related, also orphaned, packages:
 tiemu, skinedit, tidev-modules-source, libtifiles0, libticables3, libticalcs4

I am waiting for the gcj-4.1 transition to be over to finalize the packages,

I am undecided on the jars vs. native builds issue as of yet. The bytecode
runs incredibly slow with kaffe so I tend to favour native builds right now.

Bug#374030: O: libmail-verp-perl -- Variable Envelope Return Paths (VERP) address encoder/decoder

[Julien BLACHE]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

Hi,

I am putting libmail-verp-perl up for adoption. I packaged it because I
intended to use it on the PTS, but never finished that patch.

The package description is:
 Mail::Verp provides utility functions to encode and decode Variable Envelope
 Return Paths (VERP) addresses, as described by http://cr.yp.to/proto/verp.txt.
 .
 VERP addresses are used to help manage bounces coming back from remote SMTP
 servers, especially when dispatching mail for a mailing-list; the VERP address
 encodes the recipient address, which can then be recovered from the bounce to
 unsubscribe the address from the mailing-list.
 .
 The encoding uses the method described by
 http://www.courier-mta.org/draft-varshavchik-verp-smtpext.txt.


Thanks,

JB.

Given that it is not tightly coupled with v4l-dvb, I do not see what

Unless it offers something inotail doesn't, it looks like a duplicate

Looks like "mule-esb" would be a better name for the package; it would
also help avoid confusion with the MULE stuff related to (X)Emacs.

The status of all the OpenSER derivatives is pretty much the same; they
all need a thorough license check, and on such a massive codebase it's
not an easy thing to do.

There are a number of license incompatibilities in there, and a
significant number of them can't be fixed (original authors disappeared,
are uninterested or unwilling to fix the license for one reason or
another...).

Additionally, there are some nasty GPL/OpenSSL issues involving some of
the plugins and libraries they use.

That was the situation last I got involved in this, from the top of my
head.

Good luck,

 This module provides an object oriented interface to the Asterisk Manager API,
 whilst embracing some applicable Python concepts:
  o Functionality is split into separate mix-in classes
  o Asterisk PBX errors cause fairly granular exceptions
  o Docstrings are provided for all objects
  o The module may be used asynchronously if required. It should be suitable
for inclusion in a single-threaded GUI
  o Asterisk data is translated into data stored using Python types, so
working with it should be trivial. Through the use of XMLRPCServer or
similar, it should be trivial to expose this conversion to other
languages

  Description : media server with support for RSP, DAAP, DACP and AirTunes

 forked-daapd is an iTunes-compatible media server, originally intended
 as a rewrite of Firefly Media Server (also known as mt-daapd).

 It supports a wide range of audio formats, can stream video to iTunes,
 FrontRow and other compatible clients, has support for Apple's Remote
 iPhone/iPod application and can stream music to AirTunes devices like
 the AirPort Express.

 It also features RSP support for Roku's SoundBridge devices.

 Built-in, on-the-fly decoding support enables serving popular free music
 formats like FLAC, Ogg Vorbis or Musepack to those clients that do not
 otherwise support them.

Package has been ready for some time, initial upload will go to experimental
and move to unstable once antlr3 is in a position to move to testing.

I don't see the point in having this software included in Debian.

The interest of wmcoincoin is _very_ limited outside of the
linuxfr.org users community, not to say inexistent. It's sort of a

Moreover it's not internationalized, and I think it will kind of

DaCode doesn't seem to be very used (compared to PHP/PostNuke for

So maybe you should advertise this feature more than the "Coincoin"
button. The description as written in the ITP is (IMHO) more aimed at
promoting the "stupid" features of wmcoincoin than the useful ones.

Bug#336165: RFA: d4x -- graphical download manager

[Julien BLACHE]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

Hi,

I am putting d4x up for adoption, because I'm no longer using it. Back
when I ITPed it, I used it on daily basis.

As this isn't true anymore, I tend not to see bugs and the package sometimes
propagates to testing with some really annoying bugs.

Moreover, I lack time these days, and there are a few wishlist bugs that are
really worth working on.

In a nutshell, you're the perfect maintainer for d4x if:
 - you do (modern) C++
 - you're used to GTK+/GNOME
 - you download a lot of stuff here and there (read: you use d4x already or
   will be using it soon)
 - you have some free time to go through the wishlist bugs

Upstream is nice, friendly and usually responsive. d4x used to be non-free
when I first packaged it; the license got changed because I asked for it and
upstream did not really want to make non-free software. The Artistic license
did it.

If you are interested, please contact me; I'll happily sponsor a non-DD.

JB.

 .
 cldump can export the content of the database to CSV or SQL, plus its own
 "format" which dumps all the meta data along with the data contained in
 the database. When using the SQL output, you'll get a nearly ready-to-go
 dump of the database that will create the table and the indexes and insert
 the data into the table.
 .
 Note that cldump doesn't support all the datatypes yet; patches welcome.

cldump is a good companion to dbview when you need to recover some data from
some Windows applications.

Bug#290753: dgap packages available

[Julien BLACHE]

Hi,

For those interested, the packages can be found at
<http://jblache.nerim.net/dgap/>.

We're hitting license issues with the firmwares, so until this is
resolved dgap can't enter Debian, not even in non-free.

JB.

Bug#262507: ITP: resmgr -- resource manager library

[Julien BLACHE]

Hi,

For those of you interested, I've uploaded resmgr 1.0-1 to
experimental (must go through NEW, etc.).

I'll upload a version of sane-backends built with resmgr support to
experimental when sane-backends 1.0.15 will be released (end of next
week, IIRC).

I plan to have SANE built with resmgr support for Etch, and I hope
other applications will support resmgr too. It can make life a lot
easier, and changes to the code are really minimal.

Comments, patches and testers welcome.

Description (from libresmgr1) :
 The resource manager library was designed to ease the use of device
 nodes in desktop setups, where users should be able to access e.g.
 scanners, CD or DVD burners, etc.
 .
 Using a PAM module and a helper daemon, it acts as a proxy between
 the applications and the actual devices, by-passing permissions problems
 easily and elegantly.
 .
 libresmgr can be integrated with hotplug to add and remove devices
 on-the-fly.

JB.

Bug#225999: ITP: debsync -- installed packages synchronization tool

[Julien BLACHE]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name: debsync
  Version : 1.0
  Upstream Author : Jerome ALET <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://www.librelogiciel.com/software/debsync
http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/debsync
* License : GPL v2
  Description : installed packages synchronization tool

 debsync is a program which helps to synchronise the installed
 packages on existing Debian GNU/Linux machines.
 .
 debsync gets a list of installed packages from a master host, and
 installs or removes packages on several hosts to match the master's
 package list.
 .
 debsync can do its work either over ssh (default) or rsh.

A really useful tool (written in Python) that should have been written
long ago already. If nobody opposes, I'll upload shortly (in the hope
NEW will get unstuck soon).

JB.

The answer is quite simple : it's all automated. Ok you could write a
script that does just that, it'll take a couple of minutes to
write. Sure.

The interest of debsync, IMHO, does not really reside in what it can
do *now* but rather in what it will be able to do in the future (like
processing the remote hosts in parallel rather than one after the
other).

>From what the author told me, there should be a couple of improvements
in the next version, even if it'll probably still be an equivalent to
your 5 commands above. (btw, I'd like to see you use your 5 commands
to update, say, a hundred remote hosts. I'd offer the coffee)

In my experience, the use of dpkg --{get,set}-selections is something
that is not widely known, and still a very manual thing. What I see in
debsync is a tool that will come with the distro, ready to use, and
that won't require a "deep" knowledge of the interactions between apt,
dpkg and dselect.

What's important here is *having* the _tool_. The fact that it does
what you could do in 5 commands is irrelevant. And if you were to
write the script yourself, you'd have to test/debug it, etc.

I hope you see my point now :)

I thought that was clear enough, so let me rephrase : debsync
currently doesn't do much more than the standard dpkg
--{get,set}-selections, but I hope it'll be improved with features
like the ones I cited.

I'm low on time these days, but it's something I'd like to work on and
will work on depending on my availability.

The example probably wasn't the best one to demonstrate that (that was
the first step I thought of, and didn't want to start exposing some
random ideas I have flying around), but still, that was the idea
behind this whole paragraph. Let's add the features.

I think you're missing part of the problem here, but I'm not really
/that/ surprised.

Rather you're not getting the point.

Take apt-proxy or debmirror as examples. debsync falls into the same
category : it could be written by the people who need it, but having
it already written and packaged in the distro has its advantages :
more features, more testing, less bugs. It's simply convenient.

In fact, you don't even need apt. You can reimplement it with wget and
dpkg and some bash script to glue them together. (credit: benj)

You'd be very surprised by the number of admins that do not know some
simple dpkg commands. Incompetent admins aren't an endangered species.

Besides, there's nothing wrong with easing the job of an admin by
providing more tools. We could also ship our packages as tarballs,
have non-bootable CDs without an installer and any good admin should
be able to unpack that on any machine. (no Slackware troll intended)


Ideally, I'd like debsync (or another piece of software) to be able to
cope with apt pinning for instance. And synchronize apt config files
too.

Oh, and I'd like to define classes of remote hosts, with per-class
include/exclude lists (think kernel, think different
architectures). And a test-mode that would run on a test host defined
for each class, before running the update for the whole class.

 => A tool that would make my life easier

I don't know of/if debsync will evolve, but if it doesn't I'll
probably end up writing that tool myself.

>> I hope you see my point now :)

Yup. I've seen it long ago already, believe me... Go get a clue.

I have a package ready, however I'm thinking of withdrawing this

  Description : driver for Digi Acceleport PCI multiport serial cards

This will go into contrib; the sources up on Digi's support site also contain
the firmwares needed by the cards. I'll split the firmware files from the
source package to put them in non-free, where they belong. I'm currently
verifying that we can redistribute the files, as there's no mention of 
anything concerning the firmware files in the source package.

The dgap driver obsoletes the epca driver which is included in the vanilla

  o dpa - a port monitoring/testing utility

Package: dgap-source
Description: Digi Acceleport multiport serial cards driver
 This package contains the sources of the dgap driver for Digi Acceleport

Bug#262507: ITP: resmgr -- resource manager library

[Julien BLACHE]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name: resmgr
  Version : 1.0
  Upstream Author : Olaf Kirch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://rechner.lst.de/~okir/resmgr/
* License : GPL
  Description : resource manager library

>From the README :

 This is a resource manager that will provide unprivileged users
 access to device files. This is a common problem for people
 writing hardware drivers etc that should be used by "ordinary"
 users, such as usb cameras, scanners, CD writers, audio devices,
 etc etc.


resmgr is composed of a library for client applications, a daemon that acts
as a proxy between the application and the actual devices, and a PAM module
that tells resmgr to open (and close) a session when a user logs in (and
out).

Users are granted the right to use devices based on classes of devices defined
in resmgr's configuration. resmgr also integrates with hotplug.

Applications that want to use resmgr needs patching, but this is really
straigthforward. You do not necessarily need to have resmgr up and running to
use an application that makes use of it; if resmgr isn't available, it's of
course still possible to access the device directly (depends on how the
application was written).


resmgr will be broken up into 4 packages : resmgr (daemon), libresmgr$SONAME
(library), libresmgr-dev, libpam-resmgr.

I'm currently working on the packaging and testing resmgr with SANE; there's
a fairly simple patch for SANE floating around, that is really non-intrusive
and already used by SuSE. IIRC there's another one for libusb.

I won't upload resmgr before Sarge releases, but will probably make test
packages available depending on how things go.


People willing to audit resmgr for security issues are welcome, as stated on
resmgr's homepage.

Please enhance the short description, making it clear that this
package is related to the wiimotes.

At first I thought it was network-related.

Bug#628903: O: wmauda -- remote-control dockapp for Audacious

[Julien BLACHE]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

Hi,

I intend to orphan the wmauda package, as I don't use Audacious anymore.

The package description is:
 wmauda is a dockapp for WindowMaker and other window managers that support
 dockable applets. It acts as a remote control for the Audacious media player.
 .
 wmauda is a port of wmxmms to Audacious, itself seen as a replacement for
 XMMS.

Thanks,

JB.
