In the interest of making some progress towards the autoremovals that are queued up behind levenshtein's removal from testing, I've updated levenshtein in git as a Team Upload and uploaded the package to experimental. It now needs to clear NEW itself (since it has grown a -doc package now that it has more extensive documentation via sphinx). Once levenshtein has cleared NEW and landed in experimental, we'll be able to see how rdeps go with the new version too, prior to pushing such a big update to unstable. Prior to landing in unstable, it should get some humans listed in Uploaders too.

Running dpkg-reconfigure is therefore enough to upgrade the package too, thus preventing problems with upgrades. The dh-curl-sudo-bash source package Build-Depends on devscripts so that uscan can be embedded into the postinst to find the correct URL for upgrades. Example usage: debian/rules: %: dh $@ --buildsystem=curl_sudo_bash debian/curl_sudo_bash.watch: http://example.com/setup-(.*\..*).sh For completeness, other shells can also be selected by exporting the variable DH_CURL_SUDO_SHELL from debian/rules: export DH_CURL_SUDO_SHELL=mksh A future extension to dh-curl-sudo-bash is planned that will permit any github repository to be automatically (non-)packaged; the following version will iterate over all github and gitlab repositories packaging everything available. We anticipate that this will make all other Debian Developers redundant as from now on the only thing that is now required to make high quality packages for Debian is to include the relevant URL. This package also obsoletes the previous apt-gentoo package.

Hi Gianfranco, I think now we have both django and python-django-south ready in testing, can we try again with pootle? The current release of pootle is not compatible with the version of django that is in sid. This is an on-going problem with django and short of introducing multiple django packages into debian, I don't know how we are going to solve it. The cadence of deprecation of APIs within django is simply faster than the pootle developers seem to be able to keep pace with and the eagerness of the django maintainers to track new upstream releases leaves us in a very difficult position. cheers Stuart -- Stuart Prescotthttp://www.nanonanonano.net/ stu...@nanonanonano.net Debian Developer http://www.debian.org/ stu...@debian.org GPG fingerprint90E2 D2C1 AD14 6A1B 7EBB 891D BBC1 7EBB 1396 F2F7 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Hi Gianfranco, Oh... so seems that the django version is not too old to be useless, but too new, right? that's correct The django people have a pretty rigorous deprecation schedule where they mark parts of the API as deprecated for a period of time prior to actual removal. The intention of this is to give users of this code time to adjust. The problem is that the scale and speed of the changes is still mismatched to what upstreams like pootle can manage. I don't think an embedded copy of django is something we want to deal with so I'm not even entertaining this thought just yet. thanks for prodding again on this... we might yet come up with a solution to the problem some how! cheers Stuart -- Stuart Prescotthttp://www.nanonanonano.net/ stu...@nanonanonano.net Debian Developer http://www.debian.org/ stu...@debian.org GPG fingerprint90E2 D2C1 AD14 6A1B 7EBB 891D BBC1 7EBB 1396 F2F7 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#546202: RFP: levmar -- Levenberg-Marquardt nonlinear least squares algorithms in C/C++
Hi all, On Tue, 8 Oct 2013 05:56:14 Teemu Ikonen wrote: [...] All included code is from an older version than the latest levmar-2.6, so making levmar useful in Debian would require a considerable amount of forward porting and fixing of upstream sources. On the other hand, having the same code in six source packages is already a pretty bad case of duplication. When I looked at levmar a few years ago I had the distinct impression that its authors really wanted it to be statically linked. The result of that is the multitude of different (patched) versions of levmar that you see embedded in different projects. There's a lot of work to do to convince the upstreams of freemat, hugin, meshlab, sextractor, starlink-ast, stimfit and teem that they want to work with a non-patched and up-to-date levmar instead of just continuing with their own versions. Levmar upstream does have some support for building a shared object but I didn't feel confident that sovers would be properly managed and I didn't want to take on that responsibility myself which is why I abandoned my previous efforts with levmar too.

Bug#698994: O: ike-scan - discover and fingerprint IKE hosts (IPsec VPN Servers)
Package: wnpp Severity: normal The maintainer for the ike-scan package has indicated that he is unable to maintain this package for the time being. I'm marking this package as orphaned now. If you want to be the new maintainer, please take it -- see http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/index.html#howto-o for detailed instructions how to adopt a package properly. Description-en: discover and fingerprint IKE hosts (IPsec VPN Servers) ike-scan discovers IKE hosts and can also fingerprint them using the retransmission backoff pattern. . ike-scan does two things: . a) Discovery: Determine which hosts are running IKE. This is done by displaying those hosts which respond to the IKE requests sent by ike-scan. . b) Fingerprinting: Determine which IKE implementation the hosts are using. This is done by recording the times of the IKE response packets from the target hosts and comparing the observed retransmission backoff pattern against known patterns. . The retransmission backoff fingerprinting concept is discussed in more detail in the UDP backoff fingerprinting paper which should be included in the ike-scan kit as udp-backoff-fingerprinting-paper.txt. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#696833: ITP: i18nspector -- checking tool for gettext POT, PO and MO files
How does it compare with msgfmt? Translators usually use msgfmt to check for errors right now. Indeed,... and a run of i18nspector over po files in the archive shows lots of problems. i18nspector tests much more than msgfmt -- it simply catches lots of problems that msgfmt misses. Perhaps the easiest thing to do is to show what the two tools say about a couple of random .po files I have here from another project: $ msgfmt -c reports.po reports.po:7: header field `Project-Id-Version' still has the initial default value $ i18nspector reports.po W: reports.po: boilerplate-in-project-id-version 'PACKAGE VERSION' W: reports.po: invalid-last-translator 'Automatic ' W: reports.po: boilerplate-in-language-team 'LANGUAGE l...@li.org' W: reports.po: unusual-character-in-translation U+009F control character APC: 'Ã\x9f' (where reports.po was UTF-8 encoded but the header claimed it to be ISO-8859-1) cheers Stuart -- Stuart Prescotthttp://www.nanonanonano.net/ stu...@nanonanonano.net Debian Developer http://www.debian.org/ stu...@debian.org GPG fingerprintBE65 FD1E F4EA 08F3 23D4 3C6D 9FE8 B8CD 71C5 D1A8 GPG fingerprint90E2 D2C1 AD14 6A1B 7EBB 891D BBC1 7EBB 1396 F2F7 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#657499: Bug#677319: ITP: pootle -- Web-based translation and translation management tool
forcemerge 657499 677319 thanks Hi Martin, As you know, there is already working packaging for pootle 2.1.6 in the package subversion: http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/debian-l10n/pootle/trunk/ it needs updating for the recent upload of the python-djblets package which removes the need for pootle to carry some 3rd party libraries. However, pootle 2.1.6 is not compatible with django 1.4 which will ship with wheezy. At this stage, there's no new upstream release for django 1.4 so I think we're too late for wheezy. When pootle supports django 1.4, we can always offer that to wheezy users through wheezy-backports. cheers Stuart -- Stuart Prescott--www.nanonanonano.net signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
Bug#657499: python-django-djblets and pootle
Hi Dmitry! It's great to see that you're looking at packaging these modules. For purely historical reasons, they are currently sitting as embedded copies in our pootle packages that we will hopefully upload to unstable soon. When your packages are ready, we can have the pootle package depend on them instead of using the embedded copies. Our current djblets are in http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/debian- l10n/pootle/trunk/external_apps/djblets/ If I can be of assistance with this packaging, please feel free to contact me. regards Stuart -- Stuart Prescott--www.nanonanonano.net signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
Bug#657499: RFP: pootle -- Web-based translation and translation management tool
Dear Martin, I'm glad to find more DDs interested in Pootle. There is indeed activity aimed at getting pootle back into debian: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/debian-l10n-devel/2011- November/001463.html I think what the packages need at this stage is testing (in particular, upgrade testing). If you're in a position to help with that, then that would be wonderful. cheers Stuart -- Stuart Prescott--www.nanonanonano.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#546202: levmar package question
Hi! I have indeed done a little work on packaging levmar for debian but my efforts stalled in the following places: * it seems that the upstream developers see levmar as some code you include in some other project not as a shared library. They have at least started providing a so-producing makefile, but I'm not sure how committed to binary compatibility they are. * I wasn't sure that SONAMEs were being bumped correctly and I don't yet know enough about SONAMEs to do this confidently on my own, so it slipped down my priority list somewhat. * I originally thought that there were several users of levmar already in debian but when I went looking there appears to only be one (hugin) which is using a heavily modified, very old internal copy of levmar and the prospects of getting hugin to use a shared library version of levmar seem slim in the short term at least. * I tried to contact the upstream authors of levmar to talk to them about packaging their library and to start developing a working relationship with them but never received a reply to my emails. Having said that, levmar still looks like interesting code and it might be useful to have it in debian anyway, although the general rule that it's not worth packaging a library until there is some other package in debian to use it make me wonder if it's worth it at this stage. Chicken and egg. I'd like to revisit levmar once squeeze is released and see if hugin can start using a newer version of levmar as a shared object instead. I'd be looking for someone with more experience in packaging libraries to help me with this though. cheers Stuart -- Stuart Prescott www.nanoNANOnano.net signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
Bug#575162: texify upstream
From the copyright file for this package: http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/t/texify/current/copyright ,-- | It was copied from /local/snacks/bin/ from the computers at | the Department of informatics, at the University of Oslo. `- Which, is where the previous Debian maintainer is (or was) located. With this maintainer retiring from Debian, it would seem that there is no longer any access to the upstream for this package. Any prospective adopter should (a) see if the Department of informatics at the University of Oslo is interested in becoming an upstream for this package themselves (seems unlikely) or (b) be prepared to be both upstream and Debian maintainer. The package has relatively few bugs historically and a non-zero (but not huge) popcon so it can probably continue as a QA case for a while even if considered dead-upstream. cheers Stuart -- Stuart Prescott www.nanoNANOnano.net signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
