Interesting. Are you also intending to package Alice
http://ps.uni-sb.de/alice/ ? Otherwise I might be
interested in packaging alice myself, provided I can
get rid of some of my other packages.

Bug#362958: RFA: texmacs -- WYSIWYG emacs-ish mathematical text editor

2006-04-16 Thread Ralf Treinen
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

Hi,

I would like to give the texmacs package into caring hands. TeXmacs is
a mathematical text editor, combining a wysiwyg interface with the
typesetting quality of TeX. In fact, the program contains a complete
re-implementation of Knuth's TeX typesetting algorithm, minus some 
of its limitations. The intended audience is mathematical writers,
for this reason it has interfaces to many computer algebra systems.
Some people abuse texmacs as a wysiwyg fromtend to write LaTeX (since
it has an output converter to LaTeX), but in fact it is much more.

I have been maintaining this packaeg for more than four years,
in recent times with the help of Magnus Ekdahl. Unfortunately,
I do not have the time to continue maintaining this package, and
for the same reason Magnus cannot take over maintainership. In
all the time the package has grown to my heart :-), and I would
feel bad leaving the users of the package out in the cold. Hence
I really would like this package to be taken over by some caring
developper(s). 

Knowledge of C++ would be very helpful. There is an upstream
bug tracer at savannah and a small upstream developer community.
Coordination with upstream is easy. The main outstanding issues
of the package are a better integration of fonts, and compilation
with gcc-4.1.

For the moment I can continue to do the maintenance, but if there
is no taker in some weeks I will orphan the package.

-Ralf.

Bug#365087: ITP: debcheck -- Checks whether dependencies of debian packages can be satisfied

2006-04-27 Thread Ralf Treinen
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Ralf Treinen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

* Package name: debcheck
  Version : as of 2006/3/19
  Upstream Author : Jerome Vouillon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~vouillon/
* License : GPL
  Programming Lang: Objective Caml
  Description : Checks whether dependencies of debian packages can be 
satisfied

This software checks for every package of a distribution (in the
debian format .deb) whether it is possible to satisfy its dependencies
and conflicts within this distribution.

The constraint solving algorithm is complete, that is it finds a
solution whenever there exists one, even for multiple disjunctive dependencies
and deep package conflicts. This problem is computationally intractable in
theory (that is, NP-complete), but can in practice be solved very efficiently.


==

Some comments on this: the essential point is that it is really a
*complete* constraint solver. In particular it implements properly
the logical semantics of disjunctive dependencies. 

Despite the fact that it is a complete constraint solver, and despite
the fact that the problem is NP-complete, the tool is lightning fast.
This is achieved by using a custom-built SAT solver.  For instance, a
complete check of testing/main for i386 as of today takes 12 seconds
on my PC (1GHz).

Preliminary packages are available at 

http://people.debian.org/~treinen/debcheck/

You are right. My usage of the word "distribution" comes from the
terminology of the edos project
http://www.edos-project.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome
(where this tool, and many others, originated). In the context of this
project a distribution is a set of packages containing possibly
multiple versions of a package name. The debian reading of the
word "distribution" excludes this.

For the moment it is in the EXAMPLES section of the manpage, but I'll
make this more explicit.

For the moment I create two binary packages, one with the debcheck tool
for deb packages, and another one with the rpmcheck tool which does the
analogous thing on rpm packages. I forgot to mention this in my ITP.

I'll have a look into this, thanks for the suggestion.

What you describe is indeed one of the goals of the edos project
(http://www.edos-project.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome) where
the debcheck tool (and many others) comes from. In the context
of the edos projec we call this problem "thinning" of a distribution.
The problem seems to be beyond debcheck's realm. There is work in
progress on this issue but so far there is no completely satisfying
solution. In particular we would like to find a minimal solution
with respect to some reasonable metrics (number of packages, size
of packages, ...). How important do you think would be minimality
of a solution? Or what would be your criterion for an optimal
solution to the problem?

The use case you describe suggests to me a variant of the problem
which might be easier: Extend a given distribution by just a small
set of packages and their dependency closure. In this case it would
be sufficient to find a solution which is only "locally" optimal
(that is optimal among those that preserve the previous calculated
distribution). Would that be sufficient for your purpose?

I have just uploaded to unstable. the ony modification that I have done 
is that I have put the maintainer field in the control file back
to QA, and adapted the changelog accordingly. The reason is that in
my understanding the maintainer should be an debian member (or
group account). The changlog entries of your modificatons carry
of course your name. That means that #503528 is still open;
I am putting bug #503528 in cc to this mail to indicate that
you are taking care of that package now.

2010-06-29 Thread Ralf Treinen
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Ralf Treinen

Package name:dose3
Version: 0.7
Upstream Author: Pietro Abate  
URL: http://gforge.info.ucl.ac.be/frs/download.php/160/dose3-0.7.tar.gz
Licence: GPL >=3
Programming Language: OCaml
Tentative Description:
  Dose3 is a framework made of several OCaml libraries for managing
  distribution packages and their dependencies.

  Though not tied to any particular distribution, dose3 constitutes a pool of
  libraries which enable analyzing packages coming from various
  distributions.

  Besides basic functionalities for querying and setting package properties,
  dose3 also implements algorithms for solving more complex problems
  (monitoring package evolutions, correct and complete dependency resolution,
  repository-wide uninstallability checks). 
Maintainer: Debian OCaml Maintainers

Remark: This is the new implementation of the dose2 libraries and the 
accompanying tools, in particular edos-distcheck. We will for the moment
upload only to experimental until we are comfident that the new
implementation can be used as a replacement of the old one. During that
time we will use names of binary packages that do not clash with existing
names of binary packages in unstable. Once we know everything is OK we will
transition from the old edos-distcheck to the new one.

maria (core) would be architecture dependant, while the doc is of course
not. This, and the fact that the size of the doc is a significant
portion of the total size, is the reason to split.

Besides, I guess that any user of maria will need access to the doc,
be it online or on a paper. However, he could also downlad a PDF
version from the maria web site (University of Helsinki).

Bug#146320: ITP: maria -- Reachability analyzer for Algebraic System Nets

2002-08-04 Thread Ralf Treinen
* Package name: maria
  Version: 1.2
  Upstream author: Marko Mäkelä <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL: http://www.tcs.hut.fi/Software/maria
* Licence: GPL
Description: Reachability analyzer for Algebraic System Nets
 Maria is a powerful tool designed to aid engineers in modelling and
 solving concurrency related problems in parallel and distributed
 computing systems.
 .
 Maria finds deadlocks and violations against safety or liveness
 requirements by exploring all states that can be reached from the
 initial state of a system.  The tool manages tens or hundreds of
 millions of reachable states and enabled actions.
 .
 The expressive power of Maria's formalism is close to high-level
 programming languages, thanks to its rich data type system and
 powerful algebraic operations.

 instance, in model checking, where it represents a property to be
 verified from a model (e.g. a Petri net).

Bug#155662: ITP: springgraph -- a graph renderer

2002-08-06 Thread Ralf Treinen
Package: wnpp
Version: N/A; reported 2002-08-05
Severity: wishlist

* Package name : springgraph
  Version : 0.79
  Upstream Author : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* URL : http://www.chaosreigns.com/code/springgraph/
* License : GPL
  Description : A graph renderer

Springgraph will read in a .dot file description of a graph, which, for
each node, specifies its name and which other nodes it is connected to,
and then renders a graph. Each node is drawn as an ellipse, and each
connection is drawn as an arrow. The node placement is a result of all
of the nodes moving away from each other, while all nodes which are
connected move toward each other. This movement is repeated until it
stabilizes.


Comment: A free replacment for the non-free graph-rendering package
graphviz would be greatly appreciated. Unfortunately, springgraph
is not (yet ?) a drop-in replacement for graphviz. Still, it can
be useful for certain applications. One of the applications
mentioned on springgraph home page, for instance, is visualisation
of the debian keyring (though I didn't yet check for myself).

Tuareg-mode is an emacs mode for ocaml programs. Currently tuareg-mode

Are you aware of the packages built by Christian Marillat 
(http://marillat.free.fr)? These are not part of the debian
distribution (even not in non-free). Since Christian is
himself a Debian developer I'm sure he would be eager to

Bug#90959: ITP: ocaml-tools

2001-03-24 Thread Ralf Treinen
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

I intend to build a package "ocaml-tools" that unites several 
small tools for programmers working with the ocaml language.
This proposal grew out of a discussion on the debian-ocaml-maint
mailing list.

For a start, the package will contain
- tuareg: an alternative emacs mode for editing ocaml code
  http://www-rocq.inria.fr/~acohen/tuareg/
  GPL
- OcamlMakefile : a makefile template for ocaml projects
  http://miss.wu-wien.ac.at/~mottl/home/ocaml_sources.html#toc4
  LGPL
- configure.in and Makefile.in for ocaml programs
  http://www.lri.fr/~filliatr/software.en.html
  LGPL

Furthermore I'd like to add, provided the authors issues an acceptable
licence (for the moment there is no licence):
- ocamldot: generates dependency graphs for ocaml programs
  http://www.research.att.com/~trevor/ocamldot/
  This would be compiled as ocaml bytecode such that the package is
  architecture-independent.

Wouldn't the package be better named "pcrprimer" or something like this?
The fact that it is written in perl seems not to be relevant to
the user. The name "perlprimer" makes me rather think of a primer 
(tutorial) for perl.

Yes, in fact I talked yesterday to Ansgar Burchardt (FTP assistant) who told 
me not to worry about this and just upload to main. Twitter stuff is also

Bug#655395: ITP: coinst -- computes the co-installability kernel of a deb or RPM distribution

2012-01-10 Thread Ralf Treinen
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Ralf Treinen 

* Package name: coinst
  Version : 1.01-1
  Upstream Author : Jérôme Vouillon 
* URL : http://coinst.irill.org
* License : GPL-2+
  Programming Lang: OCaml
  Description : computes the co-installability kernel of a deb or RPM 
distribution

 This package is useful when you are interested in analyzing
 co-installability of packages in a large package repository.  A set
 of packages is called co-installable if it can be extended to a set
 that satisfies all inter-package relations (dependencies, conflicts,
 etc.).
 .
 This tool reduces a repository to a much smaller one, its so-called
 co-installability  kernel, that behaves exactly the same as far as
 co-installability of package is concerned. This is achieved by
 - dropping all relations that are not relevant for this purpose
 - identifying all packages that behave the same.
 The kernel is typically orders of magnitude smaller than the original
 repository.

 Aspcud is a solver for package dependencies. A package universe and a
 request to install, remove or upgrade packages have to be encoded in
 CUDF, a distribution-independent format for expressing inter-package
 relationships. Aspcud returns a solution in the same format.

Bug#625636: ITP: mccs -- multi-critera CUDF solver

2011-05-04 Thread Ralf Treinen
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Ralf Treinen 

* Package name: mccs
  Version : 1.0
  Upstream Author : Claude Michel 
* URL : http://users.polytech.unice.fr/~cpjm/misc/mccs.html
* License : BSD
  Programming Lang: C
  Description : multi-critera CUDF solver
 mccs is a solver for package dependencies expressed in the CUDF
 format.  It takes as input a CUDF problem and computes the best
 solution according to a combination of optimization criteria chosen
 by the user. Basic criteria to be maximized or minimized may be
 selected from a list of pre-defined criteria, and these can be
 combined using using various aggregation operators. It relies on an
 Integer Programming solver or a Pseudo Boolean solver to achieve its
 task. The version of mccs distributed with this package uses cbc as 
 underlying solving engine, however, mccs may also be used together with
 other solvers like Cplex, Gurobi, Lpsolver, Glpk, SCIP or WBO.

Bug#626410: ITP: minisat+ -- solver for pseudo-Boolean constraints

2011-05-11 Thread Ralf Treinen
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Ralf Treinen 

* Package name: minisat+
  Version : 1.0-1
  Upstream Author : Niklas Eén and Niklas Sörensson
* URL : http://minisat.se/MiniSat+.html
* License : MIT/X
  Programming Lang: C++
  Description : solver for pseudo-Boolean constraints

 MinSat+ is a solver for Pseudo-Boolean Optimization (AKA 0-1
 integer programming) that is based on the MiniSat SAT-solver. It
 supports optimizing a linear objective function, subject to a set
 of linear constraints. The variables of the objective function
 and constraints are boolean, i.e. required to be 0 or
 1. Pseudo-Boolean optimization can be used to solve many kinds of
 combinatorial optimization problems. This version of Minisat+ is
 compiled with bignum support for constraint coefficients.

we also have Jean-Christophe Filliatre's configure.in and Makefile.in templates

they can be packaged together with ocaml-autoconf, or ocaml-autoconf can be part

Sure, go ahead :-) The package has become quite empty anyway since ocamlmakefile
moved out, and ocamldot got integrated into ocaml upstream.

The only problem with multiple upstream packages is that tools like watch do
not work (to my knowledge), and that you always have to cook a new tarball
from upstream sources. There have been rumours of extending dpkg to multiple
source tarballs, which have would solve the problem once for all, but ASFAIK
this is still in the planning stage.

The file "bugs" in the dypgen distribution (version 20120619-1)

KNOWN BUGS

Dypgen does not handle cyclic grammars : when a non terminal can derive itself.
And it does not warn the user that its grammar is cyclic. The behavior is
not defined.

When there is an error of type with the arguments or the result of a merge
function, Caml reports it and points to the .ml file generated by dypgen,
not to the .dyp input file, which may be puzzling.

Bug#418965: package confluence

2016-12-11 Thread Ralf Treinen
Hello,

the confluence package is in bad shape. When we adopted it in 2007 it
was already dead upstream, and almost nothing has been done to maintain
this package since the initial effort. It has non-negligable popcon
of 380, but I guess that this is mainly due to the fact that it is a 
Recommends of the science-electronics meta-package. I see the following
possibilities:

1) someone invests some time to bring the package up to date (not me);
2) we drop the package from science-electronics, and ask ftp to remove
   the package from sid;
3) we orphan the package, and let it continue to rot as part of debian;
4) we do nothing, and let it continue to rot as part of d-o-m.

I am for (2). So, if noone steps up for (1), and if there are no objections
by one week from now, I will ask ftp for removal.

Bug#907985: ITP: morbig -- Parser for POSIX shell scripts

2018-09-04 Thread Ralf Treinen
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Ralf Treinen 

* Package name: morbig
  Version : 0.9
  Upstream Author : Yann Régis-Gianas, Nicolas Jeannerod, Ralf Treinen
* URL : https://github.com/colis-anr/morbig
* License : GPL3
  Programming Lang: OCaml
  Description : Parser for POSIX shell scripts

 Morbig is a parser for shell scripts written in the POSIX shell script
 language. It parses the scripts statically, that is without executing
 them, and constructs a concrete syntax tree for each of them. The
 concrete syntax trees are built using constructors according to the
 shell grammar of the POSIX standard.

This package will be maintained in the debian ocaml team.


Bug#845587: ITP: ocplib-simplex -- simplex library for solving linear inequalities

2016-11-24 Thread Ralf Treinen
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Ralf Treinen 

* Package name: ocplib-simplex
  Version : 0.3
  Upstream Author : Mohamed Iguernlala 
* URL : https://github.com/OCamlPro-Iguernlala/ocplib-simplex
* License : LGPL 2.1
  Programming Lang: OCaml
  Description : simplex library for solving linear inequalities

ocplib-simplex is a (fully) functional OCaml implementation of the
simplex algorithm for solving systems of linear inequalities. The
implementation is incremental and backtrackable. It is able to extract
unsat-cores for unsatisfiable problems, and it supports linear optimization

This is a build-dependency of alt-ergo >= 1.30.

The package will be maintained by the debian-ocaml-maint team.

Bug#933241: ITP: caml-mode -- emacs mode for editing OCaml programs

2019-07-27 Thread Ralf Treinen
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Ralf Treinen 

* Package name: caml-mode
  Version : recent (*)
  Upstream Author : Damien Doligez, Jacques Garrigue, Xavier Leroy, Didier
Remy, Ian T Zimmerman
* URL : https://github.com/ocaml/caml-mode
* License : GPL2+
  Programming Lang: elisp
  Description : emacs mode for editing OCaml programs

 Objective Caml (OCaml) is an implementation of the ML language, based on
 the Caml Light dialect extended with a complete class-based object system
 and a powerful module system in the style of Standard ML.
 .
 This package provides support for editing both Objective Caml and
 Caml Light programs with Emacs and XEmacs.
 .
 Caml-mode supports:
  - indentation
  - compilation and error retrieving
  - interaction with the toplevel
  - font-lock
  - imenu

This emacs-mode used to be distributed as part of the ocaml distribution
but was recently factored out by upstream into a separate git repository.
This will become relevant for debian starting from ocaml 4.08 on (which
is currently in experimental).

This package will be maintained by the ocaml-team.

(*) Concerning the version: since the creation of the separate git repo,
upstream has not issued release tags. I have asked upstream to tag the
commits they consider a release.



Bug#951359: ITP: ocaml-fpath -- OCaml library for handling file system paths

2020-02-15 Thread Ralf Treinen
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Ralf Treinen 

* Package name: ocaml-fpath
  Version : 0.7.2
  Upstream Author : Daniel Bünzli 
* URL : https://erratique.ch/software/fpath
* License : ISC
  Programming Lang: OCaml
  Description : OCaml library for handling file system paths

  Fpath is an OCaml module for handling file system paths with POSIX and
  Windows conventions. Fpath processes paths without accessing the file
  system and is independent from any system library.

This package will be maintained in the debian-ocaml-maintainers team.
This is a dependency for odoc.


Bug#951632: ITP: coq-menhirlib -- Support library for verified Coq parsers produced by Menhir

2020-02-19 Thread Ralf Treinen
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Ralf Treinen 

* Package name: coq-menhirlib
  Version : 20200123-1
  Upstream Author : Jacques-Henri Jourdan 
* URL : http://gallium.inria.fr/~fpottier/menhir/
* License : LGPL3+
  Programming Lang: Coq
  Description : Support library for verified Coq parsers produced by Menhir

 The Menhir parser generator, when invoked with the --coq option, produces
 parser code in the Coq language.
 .
 These parsers must be linked against this library, which provides
 both an interpreter (which allows running the generated parser) and
 a validator (which allows verifying, at parser construction time,
 that the generated parser is correct and complete with respect to
 the grammar).

This package will be maintained by ocaml-team.

Rationale: this is currently part of the menhir package. The plan is to
split the menhir source package into two source packages: menhir, and
the new coq-menhirlib, with the objective to drop the build-dependency
on coq from the menhir package. This will resolve two problems:
- having menhir build-depend on coq increases considerably the depth
  of the dependency graph for ocaml-related packages. Removing this 
  build-dependency for menhir itself will make things easier, in particular
  for transitions to new versions of ocaml or coq.
- coq does not build on all architectures, and the situation for building
  coq has become worse starting with 8.11. Menhir however is a parser 
  generator, like bison, and should be available on all architectures.

already 8.10.2:

https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=coq&suite=experimental

A package for 8.11.0 is in the experimental/master branch, but I haven't
uploaded to experimental yet. It builds on amd64. I also tried

- on an armel porterbox which leads to a compilation error in some
  debug tool. This can be circumvented, but we have not even reached
  the point of running the test suite.
- on an i386 porterbox, leading to failure in the test-suite which
  according to upstream (ejgallego) is critical:

Bug#812755: RFA: spass -- An automated theorem prover for first-order logic with equality

2016-09-03 Thread Ralf Treinen
Hi Roland,

I am not using spass directly but it is a suggestion of one the packages
I maintain (why3), and in fact I am glad to have spass in debian as it is
quite good at reasoning about quantified formulas, in contrast to most
SMT solvers.

So, I would be interested in helping out maintaining the spass package.
I think it would fit well into debian-science, so as a first step I 
would suggest to check it into the debian-science git repo.

Cheers -Ralf.
