Bug#546270: ITP: taggrepper -- search and match tags of media files against regular expressions
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Kumar Appaiah * Package name: taggrepper Version : 0.03 Upstream Author : Kumar Appaiah (myself) * URL : http://gitorious.org/taggrepper/pages/Home * License : BSD Programming Lang: C Description : search and match tags of media files against regular expressions taggrepper is a small tool written to "grep" tags of media files. Currently, it can be used to match some or any tags of MP3, Ogg Vorbis and FLAC files, against specified regular expressions, and display the name and designated fields of the matching files. It supports recursive directory searches as well. Notes: I wrote this software rather quickly for my own use, but I have tested it fairly well, and it should work for most. I have not come across a software which does exactly this, which is why I believe Debian could possess this. I have done my best to add a tutorial style README and a man page for the program. Please voice your opinions and objections on any of the above. Thanks. Kumar -- Kumar Appaiah signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Lenya uses Maven for building, which means it builds by downloading dependencies from the intenet. So, it will be very difficult to package it for Debian, which is why I didn't file an ITP but an RFP. But still, try downloading Lenya and see if you can identify the things to be done.

Well, yes. And even though I wish to see your package, I am not able to since I am behind a restrictive firewall, and can't seem to check out from svn.debian.org since it doesn't have port 443 open for me to go through the proxy.

Other than a few minor points, I don't think there are many changes I could suggest. The only two issues I see are: 1. Watch file version can be bumped to 3. 2. The description is brief. Here's something closer to what I had in mind: Vala is a new programming language that aims to bring modern programming language features to GNOME developers without imposing any additional runtime requirements and without using a different ABI compared to applications and libraries written in C. . valac, the Vala compiler, is a self-hosting compiler that translates Vala source code into C source and header files. It uses the GObject type system to create classes and interfaces declared in the Vala source code. . This package contains the headers and include files for the Vala runtime library (libvala0) required by the Vala compiler (valac). . Homepage: http://live.gnome.org/Vala Note that the Homepage: needs to be indented by TWO spaces, and not one. I guess you can just bump the version to 0.1.2 with the latest upstream version and push it into unstable. What do you feel? Feel free to disagree with your points. Thanks.

Done! I've done some goofy things (NMU etc.) to fix up lintian warnings, but I guess you can just edit the changelog and fix that up.

But before that, I'd like to respond to all your earlier mails. First of all, you weren't actually being rude. It's just that it took time for me to take proper note of the fact that you've already spent a lot of time preparing the package. And, it got me to see your CDBS package, which looks very neat, and it was a learning experience for me as well. Now, adding you to collab-maint is Loic's task, since you've asked him. About [EMAIL PROTECTED], it's the e-mail address which can be used to specify various tags on Debian bugs. For example, some of the mails I sent earlier (making me the owner, then returning ownership to you), were all done with the simple commands at the top of the mail and CC'ing them to control. It's pretty easy, see the e-mail related link and "Advanced..." link in bugs.debian.org and you should be up to speed in no time. > Kumar ? would you like to take care of it? Should we do co-maintenance? > I don't know how that could work, but sounds good :) Since you've done bulk of the packaging work, it is only correct that you be the maintainer of the package. But, if you say, I'd love to help out on the package. Co-maintaining is like this: you're the maintainer, and I'm the co-maintainer. If this is the case, you achieve two goals. One is, you are accepting me as a partner in maintaining, and we cooperate when the package is updated, with e-mail exchanges and uploads. Second, if you are too busy when the package needs attention, and I'm free, I can attend to it and initiate the upload, and vice-versa. And if you accept me as co-maintainer, this package will be listed as a package in my Debian QA page! :-D Now, to finish off things and hand it over to Loic, once you get the account added to collab-maint, check out the stuff using the svn+ssh:// command which Loic mentioned. Then, edit the control file and add me as Uploader, just below Loic's name. Then, about the changelog, I think a fresh, clean changelog is needed, though Loic can confirm on this one. You should change UNRELEASED to unstable, and ensure that you say "Initial Release: (Closes: #398198)" as one of the changelog entries. Then, just do an svn-buildpackage with proper options and upload the built package somewhere (mentors?) from where Loic picks it up and uploads it to ftp-master. Clear? :-) Then, I think we'll have to tag the version in svn or something, but that's something I don't know much about. Loic should clear this doubt. So, just get going, and let's see the package enter Debian! Thanks for the effort, and all the best! :-) Kumar -- Kumar Appaiah, 458, Jamuna Hostel, Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai - 600036

OK. So now, all Marc has to do is this: 1. Check out the stuff using the svn+ssh://... command which Loic had first mentioned. 2. Type dch, and do the following: a) Change "UNRELEASED" to unstable. b) Add an entry like "Initial Debian release (Closes: #398198)" And then, do something like: svn-buildpackage --svn-ignore-new -rfakeroot Then, cd ../build-area and do lintian vala_0.1.2-1_i386.changes If it gives no warnings, upload it to someplace like mentors.debian.net. Is this OK? Will you please do this, Marc? Kumar -- Kumar Appaiah, 458, Jamuna Hostel, Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai - 600 036 signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Dear Marc, I just observed one more minor mistake; it is that the version has been bumped to 0.12-2. You should not do that, since the Debian revision number *always* must begin with 1. So, I have modified your changelog to add those changes to 0.12-1 itself; that is, I have added your man page modification change to the 0.12-1 version changelog. Now, reupload to mentors and then ping Loic for a check. Thanks.

I now have the flickcurl-utils package instead of the two small separate ones.

It does this by logging, trimming, and coloring each line of the output before displaying it. It can be called instead of the executable that should be monitored; it then starts the application and logs all of its console output to a file. The output shown in the terminal is preprocessed, e.g. to limit the length of printed lines and to show the stderr output in a different color. It is also possible to automatically highlight lines that match a certain regular expression. The output is therefore reduced to the necessary amount, and all important lines are easy to identify. .

It has almost been 10 months since the RFA, and since filing it, neither have we been able to step up in maintaining the package better, nor did we receive any offers for help. Therefore, regretfully, we have decided to orphan festival (and, in a subsequent e-mail, speech-tools as well). Since festival is a fairly important package, it deserves more care and attention in keeping it up to date. So, it would be great if an individual or team could step up to fill the void. Needless to say, we would be glad to help out in the team as well as we can. xThanks.

Bug#521978: ITP: armadillo -- streamlined C++ linear algebra library
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Kumar Appaiah Package name : armadillo Version: 0.6.2 Upstream Author: Conrad Anderson (conradsand at ieee.org) URL: http://arma.sf.net License: Dual Licensed, GPL-3+ and LGPL-3+ Programming Lang : C++ Description: streamlined C++ linear algebra library Armadillo is a streamlined C++ linear algebra library (matrix maths) aiming towards a good balance between speed and ease of use. Integer, floating point and complex numbers are supported, as well as a subset of trigonometric and statistics functions. Optional integration with LAPACK and ATLAS libraries is also provided. Extras: Reason for request for inclusion in Debian: The reason why I think this package should be in Debian is because it is (to my knowledge) among the only few libraries which support delayed evaluation to improve computational efficiency. I believe that several users who need scientific computation may derive benefit from this. Another point of note is that, though it does seem to be the case that this library provides similar functionality to IT++ (libitpp), they actually compliment each other with non-overlapping feature sets, and Armadillo can be used along with IT++. Maintenance: I propose to include this package with the Debian Science Team as maintainer, since co-maintaining is much more reliable when I (as an individual) am not as responsive as I ought to be... Comments and suggestions welcome. Thanks. Kumar -- Kumar Appaiah signature.asc Description: Digital signature
Bug#1050174: O: flickcurl -- utilities to call the Flickr API from command line - documentation
Package: wnpp Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: flickc...@packages.debian.org, a.ku...@alumni.iitm.ac.in Control: affects -1 + src:flickcurl I intend to orphan the flickcurl package. The package description is: Flickcurl is a C library for the Flickr API, handling creating the requests, signing, token management, calling the API, marshalling request parameters and decoding responses. The library now supports 100% of the 2008-01-11 version of the API, including the functions for photo uploading, browsing, searching, adding and editing comments, groups, notes, photosets, categories, activity, blogs, favorites, places, tags and photo metadata. It also includes a program flickrdf to turn photo metadata, tags and machine tags into RDF descriptions of photos and tags. . Support for the Flickr API in these programs is through the libflickcurl library. . This package contains the HTML documentation for flickcurl and the related library.
