Bug#292754: O: libcpanplus-perl -- Download and install perl modules from CPAN - in a modern way
Package: wnpp Severity: normal I intend to orphan the libcpanplus-perl package. I've packaged it back when i thought i would regularly work with it, but this didn't happen. As it will probably be a part of perl 5.10, someone should try to work with our users to find out what the best way to package it is. I've implemented some ideas, but didn't have the time to really check if it works in every situation like I think it should. The package description is: The CPANPLUS module is designed to automate the download, make and install of perl modules and extensions. . It uses the CPAN network to fetch all needed data and is also able to search for modules and/or keywords. . CPANPLUS will replace CPAN in the 5.10 series of perl. The last line is obsolete anyway, CPAN will still be part of perl 5.10. There is a new upstream release available (0.51), but the diff to the Debian package (0.49) is *really* big.

Bug#291109: RFA: dh-make-perl -- Create debian packages from perl modules
Package: wnpp Severity: normal Heya, I'm searching a maintainer for the dh-make-perl package. I don't have that much free time and my interest in maintaing the really *bad* code for dh-make-perl faded in the last few months. The package description is: dh-make-perl will create the files required to build a debian source package out of a perl package. This works for most simple packages and is also useful for getting started with packaging perl modules. Given a perl package name, it can also automatically download it from CPAN. An Alioth project with an existing CVS is available and I'll add the next maintainer to the admin list. There are some bug reports, some easily solvable, others needing a rework of the whole code. I was planning to do a rewrite to get rid of the old, not very structured code, but never did so. Anyway, i'd be happy to give the package away to someone doing more for its users. Please contact me before actually adopting the package, thanks. Marc
Bug#257561: O: lavaps -- a lava lamp of currently running processes
Package: wnpp Severity: normal Hi, I got this from the Maintainer: | From: Tommi Virtanen [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Subject: Re: Bug#250630: NMU lavaps | To: Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Date: Sat, 03 Jul 2004 23:41:19 +0300 | Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt wrote: | If you don't fix this bug until 2004-07-15, I'll NMU this package. | Please adopt lavaps properly, or atleast mark it as orphaned. | I've been meaning to do that for a while. Description: a lava lamp of currently running processes Lavaps is an interactive process-tracking program like ``top'', but with a much different attitude. Rather than presenting lots of specific info in digital form, it tries to present certain important information in a graphical analog form. The idea is that you can run it in the background and get a rough idea of what's happening to your system without devoting much concentration to the task. I'll do a QA upload closing the one remaining rc bug in a few minutes. Marc

Bug#233205: ITP: perlpanel -- A lean Gtk2 panel written in Perl
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name: perlpanel Version : 0.3.1 Upstream Author : Gavin Brown [EMAIL PROTECTED] * URL : http://jodrell.net/projects/perlpanel/ * License : GPL-2 Description : A lean Gtk2 panel written in Perl PerlPanel draws a small taskbar on your screen to display some useful widgets like a programs menu, some shortcut icons, a clock and so on. It's similar to the Windows Taskbar, the Gnome Panel, and KDE's Kicker. . However, those programs are designed to be tightly integrated into the environment they are part of. For example, Kicker's not much use without KDE. . This kind of flies in the face of the Unix tradition of having lots of small, simple programs that don't depend on each other. Such is the price of user-friendliness. So users of minimalist window managers miss out on the useful bits of panel programs because they won't, or can't, run a heavy desktop environment on their systems. . This is where PerlPanel comes in. It is a panel program much in the vein of the Gnome Panel and Kicker, but is completely independent of any particular environment. So you can use it with Blackbox, for example, or WindowMaker. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.21-rc2-ac2 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The perl bindings follow the C API very closely, and the C reference documentation should be considered the canonical source.
