Bug#202226: O: xcal -- a graphical calendar with memos and reminder alarms
Package: wnpp Version: unavailable; reported 2003-07-20 Severity: normal I am orphaning the xcal package. The software is ancient, and there is no active upstream. It may be helpful for the adopter to be familiar with Imake/xmkmf, but for the most part, maintaining the package consists of recompiling it from time to time to keep up with X and the menu standards. The package description is: The "classic" calendar app with memos and alarms, xcal normally sits idle and displays the date. When clicked on, pops up a `strip' for this month. Clicking on a day allows you to enter details. Automatically parses times entered, and reminds you 5 minutes before your appointment. . Supports daily and weekly repeating events and context-sensitive help.
Bug#202227: O: mwavem -- Mwave/ACP modem support
Package: wnpp Version: unavailable; reported 2003-07-20 Severity: normal I intend to orphan the mwavem package. Please be aware that any potential adoptor should have access to a ThinkPad with this specific modem chipset. Furthermore, please be aware that there are open questions regarding the license of the firmware included in the package. Lastly, there are newer versions available from upstream (IBM). The package description is: The mwavem program implements a Hayes-compatible V.90 modem in the 3780i Mwave/ACP DSP chip which is built in to certain IBM ThinkPad laptop computers, including the ThinkPad 600, 600E and 770 models. . A driver for the mwave device is required. Source code for the driver, built as a module called 'mwave.o', is included in the latest 2.4 kernel sources. To build the module, set "ACP/Mwave Modem support" under "Character devices" to "m" at kernel configuration time. Source code is available from IBM which can be used to build a module compatible with earlier kernels.
Bug#202228: O: gtkgraph -- an interactive function-plotter/calculator
Package: wnpp Version: unavailable; reported 2003-07-20 Severity: normal I intend to orphan the gtkgraph package. It's a neat little program, but the upstream is dead, and it needs someone who can hack bison to fix the bug filed against it. The package description is: GtkGraph is an application designed to replace a conventional graphing calculator. It allows you to plot up to 10 functions on the same graph. Graphs may be exported to PostScript, printed, or exported to any bitmap file format that Imlib supports. The user can zoom and scroll, or set the range manually with X/Y minimums and X/Y maximums. In addition, a small arithmatic calculator window is included, which has a convenient history mechanism.
Bug#202232: O: pup -- Printer Utility Program
Package: wnpp Version: unavailable; reported 2003-07-20 Severity: normal I intend to orphan the pup package. There hasn't been anything from upstream on this package in over a year, so it may or may not be dead. No bugs, but then again, there might not be any users either. The package description is: This is a GUI utility for maintaining your printer under Linux. For uni-directional mode it supports the Lexmark Optra Color 40 and 45, Lexmark Optra E310, HP 2100M, HP 4000, and HP LJ4 Plus. For bi-directional mode it supports any PJL printer (or partially, depending on the printer).
Bug#202230: O: xflip -- programs to mirror-image or melt your display.
Package: wnpp Version: unavailable; reported 2003-07-20 Severity: normal I intend to orphan the xflip package. There is no upstream (at least none that I'm aware of), so one day the nine year old source is probably going break. Hence, a knowledge of X programming may be of benefit, along with Imake. Other than that, the package is extremely simple. The package description is: Flip your (or your "xhost +" using friend's) screen on either the vertical or horizontal axis or melt away the graphics on your display. Both commands have a -planes option to independently act on individual bit planes. This version now comes with a new -oblic option which flips horizontally and vertically simultaneously.
Bug#202238: O: nwrite -- Enhanced replacement for the write command
Package: wnpp Version: unavailable; reported 2003-07-20 Severity: normal I intend to orphan the nwrite package. It is a simple package, with no upstream development to worry about. In other words, it requires basic policy maintenance. The package description is: Nwrite is a replacement for the standard write program that lets you write directly to the terminal of another logged-in user without the overhead of talk taking over the full screen or the other user having to respond first. Nwrite's advantages over traditional write include the ability to send the same message simultaneously to multiple users, and a receiver-configurable message format, including a tag at the start of each line that identifies the sender.
Bug#202328: O: libvorbis-perl -- Perl extension for Ogg Vorbis streams
Package: wnpp Version: unavailable; reported 2003-07-21 Severity: normal I intend to orphan the libvorbis-perl package. A very simple package, the upstream source of this hasn't been changed in quite a while. The package description is: The Ogg::Vorbis Perl module, an object-oriented interface to the libvorbisfile Ogg Vorbis library. Currently reading but not writing of streams is supported. Includes a sample mpg123-like script for playing Ogg Vorbis files. . Ogg Vorbis is a fully Open, non-proprietary, patent-and-royalty-free, general-purpose compressed audio format for high quality (44.1-48.0kHz, 16+ bit, polyphonic) audio and music at fixed and variable bitrates from 16 to 128 kbps/channel. This places Vorbis in the same class as audio representations including MPEG-1 audio layer 3, MPEG-4 audio (AAC and TwinVQ), and PAC.
Bug#202329: O: mp3burn -- burn audio CDs directly from MP3, Ogg Vorbis, or FLAC files
Package: wnpp Version: unavailable; reported 2003-07-21 Severity: normal I intend to orphan the mp3burn package. This is a great first package for anyone with some familiarity with Perl and a CD burner. The Debian version has diverged (evolved) quite a bit beyond the upstream version, and the script is easy to understand and modify. There are also a fair number of active users, many of whom have submitted very useful patches from time to time. The package description is: mp3burn is a Perl script that allows you to burn audio CDs composed of MP3, Ogg Vorbis, or FLAC tracks without an intermediate file conversion to .cdr or .wav. The .mp3/.ogg/.flac files *are* converted using a decoder, but are written to FIFOs so they don't consume filesystem space during the burn.
Bug#202330: O: xzoom -- magnify part of X display, with fast updates
Package: wnpp Version: unavailable; reported 2003-07-21 Severity: normal I intend to orphan the xzoom package. There is no upstream that I'm aware of, so maintenance of this package boils down to keeping it up to day with policy and occassional recompiles against new releases of X. The package description is: Like xmag, xzoom magnifies a section of the X display. Xzoom is different because it will continuously update the magnified area as the display changes. It is fast enough to enlarge small animations, for example.
Bug#202346: O: liblog-agent-rotate-perl -- provides Log::Agent::Rotate perl module
Package: wnpp Version: unavailable; reported 2003-07-21 Severity: normal I intend to orphan the liblog-agent-rotate-perl package. Maintenance of this package is simple. The upstream source is available on CPAN. The package description is: The Log::Agent::Rotate module is an extension of Log::Agent that brings file-rotating features to the File logging driver. . This is NOT a generic all-purpose logfile rotation package. It is meant to be used only within the Log::Agent framework.
Bug#202349: O: xmountains -- fractal landscape generator for X
Package: wnpp Version: unavailable; reported 2003-07-21 Severity: normal I intend to orphan the xmountains package. There is no active upstream for this package, so some knowledge of old-school X programming may come in handy to maintain it. There is one wishlist bug open against this package for some additional functionality. The package description is: Generates random fractal mountains and displays them in a window (even in the X root window). . While the program is running the fractal is continuously extended on the right and the image is scrolled from right to left to expose the newly generated area.
Bug#202347: O: liblog-agent-perl -- provides Log::Agent perl module
Package: wnpp Version: unavailable; reported 2003-07-21 Severity: normal I intend to orphan the liblog-agent-perl package. Maintenance of this package is simple. The upstream source is part of CPAN. The package description is: Log::Agent is a general logging framework aimed at reusable modules that allow code to be written that is independent of the final logging method to be used.
Bug#202538: O: qpage -- SNPP-to-TAP/IXO gateway and SNPP client
Package: wnpp Version: unavailable; reported 2003-07-22 Severity: normal I intend to orphan the qpage package. It's non-free, but it's not extremely non-free (if you subscribe to that type of thinking). Aside from needed a rewrite to support threading (and preferably in Perl), it's a very solid program and has been the primary production notification system at several of my employers. The source is in C, and is fairly easy to hack. Upstream is not active. The package description is: QuickPage is a paging program. It can speak SNPP (Simple Network Paging Protocol, RFC 1861) to another paging server, or it can act as an SNPP server and dial your modem to send alphanumeric pages. . HylaFAX contains similar functionality but is more complex by at least an order of magnitude. If you just need to send pages, this does (most) everything you want.
Bug#202541: O: ripperx -- a GTK-based ripper/encoder
Package: wnpp Version: unavailable; reported 2003-07-22 Severity: normal I intend to orphan the ripperx package. This is a fun package to maintain, but be prepared to do some occassional coding (in C). Also, note that there are several Debian-specific "extensions" (e.g. FLAC support) that aren't yet in the upstream version. I'll be working to try to get those into the upstream version via its sourceforge page. Updates from upstream are infrequent. The package description is: ripperX is a graphical interface to a CD ripper (cdparanoia) and the Vorbis/Ogg, FLAC, and MP3 encoders, very similar to grip.
Bug#202543: O: easytag -- viewing, editing and writing ID3 tags of MP3 and Ogg files
Package: wnpp Version: unavailable; reported 2003-07-22 Severity: normal I intend to orphan the easytag package. This package has a very active and helpful upstream author. (Several times, Jerome has incorporated Debian bug fixes before I had a chance to send them to him.) The package description is: EasyTAG is an utility for viewing, editing and writing the ID3 tags of MP3 and Ogg files, using a GTK+ interface. . Currently EasyTAG supports the following features: - Viewing, editing, writing ID3 TAGs of MP3 and Ogg files, - Process all files of the selected directory, - Ability to browse subdirectories, - Recursion for tagging, removing, renaming, saving..., - Easy directory selection with a tree browser, - Supports ID3v1, ID3v1.1, and ID3v2 tags, - Scan file for automatic tagging (using masks), - Scan tag for automatic renaming file (using masks), - Rename mp3 file, - Can apply a field (artist, title,...) to all other files, - Display MP3 header informations, - Can load a character translation file.
Bug#202544: O: cdlabelgen -- generates front cards and tray cards for CDs
Package: wnpp Version: unavailable; reported 2003-07-22 Severity: normal I intend to orphan the cdlabelgen package. It might be helpful to be able to navigate PostScript source in order to maintain this package. Also, the cdinsert.pl CGI that comes with the upstream source should probably find its way into a separate package (it's currently ignored). Upstream is active, and there are currently no bugs open against this package. The package description is: cdlabelgen was designed to simplify the process of generating labels for CDs. It originated as a program to allow auto generation of front cards and tray cards for CDs burned via an automated mechanism (specifically for archiving data), but has now become popular for labelling CD compilations of mp3's, and copies of CDs. Note that cdlabelgen does not actually print anything--it just spits out postscript, which you can then do with as you please. .

I'm not a user of schleuder, but key difference I see is the implementation language - schleuder is written atop Ruby, whereas gpg-remailer written in C++, so perhaps gpg-remailer is bit lighter-weight (although I have no evidence for that claim), and thus perhaps gpg-remailer is preferable on very small system.

Hi Geert, Alexandre: In general the issue appears to be that there's no orig.tar.gz file and not documentation about how to create one. Alexandre, on May 10th you posted to the bug report that you uploaded the packages (presumably one of which was libhtmlcleaner-java) to mentors.debian.net, but I'm not able to find them. That source package would have included an .orig.tar.gz file. While it's possible to recreate the upstream orig.tar.gz from the upstream branch in the git repository using git-archive, it would be preferable going forward to use pristine-tar to create a pristine-tar branch. (Since you already have an upstream branch it won't take up much extra space.) And from that, was able to build a package using "debuild -us -uc". However, the packaging repo in pkg-java/libhtmlcleaner-java.git is kind of a mess. Newer upstream versions 2.2.1 and 2.4 have already been committed and merged, but the files in debian/ (changelog and patches) are for the 2.2 version. Thus, the package can't build when the master branch of the git repository has been merged with upstream/2.4, but the debian/changelog is expecting an orig.tar.gz version 2.2. If you just want to see how it build, you can follow these steps: # clone the pkg-java repo git clone git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-java/libhtmlcleaner-java.git cd libhtmlcleaner-java # (re)create the upstream tarball for the 2.2 version git archive upstream/2.2 --prefix=libhtmlcleaner-java-2.2/ -o ../libhtmlcleaner-java_2.2.orig.tar.gz # clean up the 2.4 sources that are currently there # (as an alternative, you could copy ./debian/ to a new folder) rm -rf .git __MACOSX src # restore the 2.2 sources tar --strip-components=1 -xvf ../libhtmlcleaner-java_2.2.orig.tar.gz # build! debuild -us -uc While this "works," it's completely and deeply flawed from a git-buildpackage work-flow point of view. Alexandre, what I recommend doing is to: 1) Get a working source package for whatever version it is you want to package and then make that package available on mentors.debian.net. Iterate over that package until your sponsor feels it is ready for Debian. 2) Completely erase the existing pkg-java/libhtmlcleaner-java.git repo so we can start over fresh. 3) Use git-import-dsc to create a local gbp repository for your package. 4) Verify that your package builds with git-buildpackage. 5) Push the newly created repository, including the upstream and pristine-tar branches, to pkg-java/libhtmlcleaner-java.git. Hope that helps, tony signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

The data from these tags can be especially useful for navigating a music library in DJ software such as xwax(1). The bpm command implements the algorithm on raw data, but the most commonly used command is bpm-tag to tag the file with the tempo in bpm.

It is intended as a drop-in replacement for log4j version 1.2.17. By drop-in, we mean the replacement of log4j.jar with reload4j.jar in your build without needing to make changes to source code, i.e., to your java files. With release 1.2.18.0 and later, the reload4j project offers a clear and easy migration path for the thousands of users who have an urgent need to fix vulnerabilities in log4j 1.2.17. This is being packaged because it is a dependency of slf4j [1] since version 1.7.33 (Debian currently ships version 1.7.32 [2]) and because a number of upstream projects have switched to reload4j. Having a separate reload4j source package will allow us to provide a clean transition from liblog4j1.2-java -> libreload4j-java and fully EOL Apache log4j 1.2.

I have created a git repository for the Debian packaging [1] and started reviewing the package. Everything looks good from the standpoint of constructing the .deb.

It would be nice to be able to (a) use the files as-is so that we don't have to either (b) remove the files and disable tests, or (c) replace the files and rewrite the tests that access them. I spot-checked a few tests and they appear to expect to be able to locate specific contents in the archive, so (c) would be non-trivial and could result in the package being quite difficult to maintain over time, since any upstream changes to those tests would require updating the patch(es).

I contacted the upstream author (on the cc: - hi Frank), and his concern with the passphraseless key trigger mechanism is precisely that you don't have a passphrase. The key is unprotected and subject to theft/unauthorized use. This could potentially occur on the system that is (normally) the legitimate source of the trigger. Therefore, I don't think there's feature parity between the trigger mechanism and ssh-cron. (And even if there were, TIMTOWTDI, etc...) Of course once there is a package, feature requests and bug reports are welcome. Thanks for reviewing and responding to the ITP. Cheers, tony p.s.

Hello Gregor, Thank you for the super-quick response to this RFP. I had run dh-make-perl and was in the midst of cleaning things up for a potential ITP, but am glad if the Perl team will maintain this package. In case you're curious, this module is used by squeezebox-googlemusic [0] to allow the gmusicapi (Python) to run inside of the Logitech Media Server (100% Perl). Perhaps others will find it useful.

Truth adopts a fluent style for test propositions, is extensible in several ways, supports IDE completion/discovery of available propositions, and supports different responses to un-true propositions. Truth can be used to declare JUnit-style assumptions (which skip the test on failure), assertions (interrupt the test on failure), and expectations (continue the test, but collect errors and report failure at the end). This package is a pre-requisite for packaging the latest version of the closure-compiler.

Bug#845471: ITP: java-diff-utils -- library for computing diffs, applying patches, and generation of side-by-side view in Java
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: tony mancill * Package name: java-diff-utils Version : 2.1.1 Upstream Author : Dmitry Naumenko, Brendan Kromhout * URL : https://github.com/bkromhout/java-diff-utils * License : Apache 2.0 Programming Lang: Java Description : library for computing diffs, applying patches, and generation of side-by-side view in Java The java-diff-utils library is for computing diffs, applying patches, generation side-by-side view in Java. It is an open source library for performing comparison operations between chunks of text: computing diffs, applying patches, generating unified diffs or parsing them, generating diff output for easy future display (like a side-by-side view) and so on. The main reason for creating this library was the lack of easy-to-use libraries with all the usual features necessary for working with diff files. Originally it was inspired by the JRCS library and its nice diff module design. This package is required for the upgrade of JabRef to 3.x (#810725). It will be team-maintained by the Java Team. The code originates from Google Code and there are numerous extant forks available on GitHub. The "bkromhout" fork was chosen as the basis for packaging because it is being actively maintained with participation by the JabRef upstream maintainers.

Hi Miguel, The packaging looks good. However, unfortunately there are a number of source files that carry neither a copyright nor an author.

Bug#608284: RFS: xhtmlrenderer (new package, needed to package Grails)
Hi Miguel, In lieu of a new upstream release, an email from the upstream clarifying the license for those files could be added to debian/copyright would probably be sufficient. Another option would be to drop the files under ./test/ in a DFSG version of the tarball. Andrew Ross did this recently for another package I sponsored.
