hi emilio,

 Why the version number still includes ~emiscabpo? I've added that to
 differentiate packages from my repository to the official debian ones.
 But now they would become official debian packages, this release tag
 could be removed.

i was thinking that we could remove the tag when the non-cdbs using packages 
were uploaded.  but if you want to remove it in your next version, thats 
totally fine.  we should just come up with some kind of way to differentiate 
between your versions and mine.   how about you start doing simply -N, where n 
is an incrementing integer, and if i need to make changes in your -N i'll do 
a -(N+1)~something (otherwise i'll just upload your version directly).

 Regarding emerald, compiz fusion folks, haven't released a 0.6.0
 version. They say in the 0.6.0 release announce that
 http://lists.compiz-fusion.org/pipermail/community/2007-October/000142.html
 Please note that emerald and the emerald-themes components are being held
 until the next release due to a runtime crasher. Emerald 0.5.2 can still
 be used
 in the meantime.

aha. 

 So we can choose:
 * emerald version 0.5.2
 * latest emerald git tree, like I did.
 * not include emerald

i don't have any particular confidence at *any* release of compiz etc being 
incredibly stable, so i say it's fine for using git snapshots for the time 
being, as long as the versioning system doesn't mess up when we switch to 
a stable version.

the important thing though is that the packages themselves are in good shape, 
for whatever version of the code we use.

anyway, thanks for your efforts!

OK, may I create a git repository (or a directory, if git.d.o has been

Any objections?

personally, i would rather any and all effort be spent on making the new 
packages rather than maintaining the old ones... but you guys are free to do 
as you wish.  just don't upload anything without first coordinating with me, 
as the plan is to piecemeal replace the existing packages.  ideally, since 
the packages are sitting in experimental waiting for NEW processing, if we're 
fast enough we could have them replaced befor ethey're uploaded to 
experimental... but probably not :)

anyway, I'll try to set aside some time tonight to do the documentation/status 
update on the XSF wiki page, after which the remaining work should be set out 
fairly clearly.

I was thinking about the _new_ packages too, just to make our work

I agree it doesn't make sense to maintain the old ones.

If the URL I sent was for the old packages, where are the latest version
of the new ones? (sorry if I missed that somehow)

BTW, should this discussion still be cross posted to so many bugs/lists?

hi,

okay, this is the last post that will go to each of the BR's mentioned above.   
 
Future posts should go to debian-x only, along with any individuals who wish 
to be CC'd (myself included, since i'm not subscribed to debian-x).

anyway, i've updated the wiki documentation for the current status of all 
things compiz:

http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/Compiz

it's a pretty quick read.  basically,  the table at the end of the page can be 
used to track what is still left to be done for re-debianising each of the 
source packages.

what would be best at this point is for folks to step up and take a couple 
packages from that list, and redo the packaging using only standard debhelper 
stuff.   while the interim packages are stuck up in NEW, you can get copies 
of the source packages i've uploaded from

http://people.debian.org/~seanius/compiz/

if there's anyone who knows python, i could specifically use help with the 
re-debianization of the compizconfig-python and ccsm source packages.  
ideally you should be able to satisfy your compiz-related build-dependencies 
with the interim packages.  the rest of the stuff is pretty straightforward, 
i think.

let me know if you have any questions/comments!


sean

compiz/compiz-fusion stuff uploaded - experimental

2007-10-31 Thread sean finney
hi emilio et al,

As previously discussed, i've uploaded modified versions of the packages 
emilio has made available.  The modifications have included mostly lintian 
related fixes and other packaging fixes, which should be fixed in the next 
version of your packages.

attached to this mail are a series of patches for each of the packages.  i've 
done the versioning in a way such that you should just be able to increment 
your previously used revision to supercede my version.

also attached is a lintian report for the rest of the issues i did not 
address.  

also, i'm suspicious of some of the Depends/Recommends/Replaces/Conflicts 
relationships... most of this seems to stem from trying to deal with the 
various unofficial versions of the packages, which may distribute various 
files differently between the packages.   I think i've fixed them mostly, but 
you should verify this.  

i haven't uploaded the emerald packages, as it looks like they still need a 
bit of work (they're still debian native currently, for example), but i've 
verified that they do build and work, at least.

and finally, this upload has been targeted at experimental, because the new 
packages not previously in debian will get caught up in NEW, so it's better 
that they all make it through before we let it hit unstable.

as for my next steps, the first thing i'll need to do is update the wiki with 
the current status, as well as outline the remaining tasks, and those 
interested should be able to start chipping in with the remaining help.


thanks,
sean

 hi emilio,

 thanks for the work on this!

 the biggest problem that we had been facing thus far is that the debian-x
 folks are very reluctant to take on management of cdbs-based packaging,
 which is why i never just took and cross-ported ubuntu's packages (which is
 what you've used as a basis for your packages, it seems).

 as you can see, my ITP was a while back.  a combination of factors have
 kept me really busy in the past few months, though it looks like this is
 finally cleared up now, and i can start spending time on fun things again
 :)

 i'd like to continue working on debianized compiz-foo packages that the
 debian-x folks are more happy to team-maintain, but it seems like a real
 waste to leave everyone sitting around waiting in the meantime, esp. when
 someone (you) has already provided the working packages.

 so, i'm cc'ing debian-x with a proposal, that i hope will make everyone
 happy:

 0 - do a quick audit of the packages you've provided.
 1 - i take the packages that you've provided, add myself to Uploaders, and
 sponsor uploads into unstable of these packages.
 1.5 - bug reports go to you as the official maintainer, and you can
 coordinate with me on any fixes/updates which i will also sponsor.
 2 - i continue working on the non-cdbs debianisation in the pkg-xorg repo
 3 - at some point = now, we have a handover where the pkg-xorg
 maintained packages replace the sponsored package.
 4 - you are invited to join debian-x and continue to help team-maintain the
 latest pkg-xorg maintained packages.



 what does everyone think of this?

2007-10-31 Thread Emilio Scalise
That's great. In the next days I'll watch these diffs and I'll tell you 
what should be changed according to me.


Why the version number still includes ~emiscabpo? I've added that to 
differentiate packages from my repository to the official debian ones. 
But now they would become official debian packages, this release tag 
could be removed.


Regarding emerald, compiz fusion folks, haven't released a 0.6.0 
version. They say in the 0.6.0 release announce that 
http://lists.compiz-fusion.org/pipermail/community/2007-October/000142.html

Please note that emerald and the emerald-themes components are being held
until the next release due to a runtime crasher. Emerald 0.5.2 can still 
be used

in the meantime.

So we can choose:
* emerald version 0.5.2
* latest emerald git tree, like I did.
* not include emerald

What do you think it's better?

Bye,
Emilio
