Re: [Bug 102212] Re: [needs-packaging] Metasploit Framework 3.0 (multiverse)
I agree with everything you mentioned here, especially braking up the packages. I am actually glad that Ubuntu is rejecting it :-) it shows me that people care about what packages make it into the repositories and results in a high quality system for the users. I am a long time user since Warty :-) So, looks like we need to puch this back to the MSF team so they can clean up their act. They may not even want to, and for that, we can do nothing. So, for myself, I will just continue pulling down sources manually until they work out a new license and/or ways to deal with these issues. They may not care, since it is their tool for their use, and we have the fringe benefit of being able to use it. Oh well...we tried. I won't work on this any more. I'll let you guys take over if you like. The MSF guys don't seen to have time or want to fix these things, at least as far as I can tell. Maybe they do, but they don't care if it makes it into a distro or not... On 8/29/07, Justin M. Wray [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I said that .svn dirs must be removed ;) A package for being accepted must be lintian *clean*, so i think, as i prev said: 1) we get a good package from dev team 2) we get an execption from ubuntu-dev Completely agree, we were just trying to see if we could get past this for the time being. I think the best solution is as follows: 1) We split metasploit into the following packages - * metasploit-core (Containing all the core components, including CLI) * metasploit-web (Containing all of the msfweb files) * metasploit-gui (Containing all of the msfgui and needed files) * metasploit-data (Containing all exploits, modules, etc.) 2) Offer a way to automatically update the exploits and modules only (leaving core, web, and gui to be updated in future releases or with security concerns). Although we need to discuss how this should be approached, specific SVN, repackaging to the archive, a download script, etc. The problem again, is how to we gain the ability to do such. The options are MSF distributes the upstream package as we have outlined above, or they allow an exception to the license that grants Ubuntu the right to modify the package and distribute in the way stated above. But it is a long shot that they would repackage just to please one distro (even though other distros could benefit from such a release). Worse it is unlikely any license exception or change will be seen until the next major release which should be accompanied by a new license. Which leaves us hanging without a metasploit release again...feedback? I wonder if the MSF team would be willing to create a separate SVN trunk for Ubuntu specifically, in which they release under the layout above? Thanks, Justin M.

Re: [Bug 102212] Re: [needs-packaging] Metasploit Framework 3.0
Okay, so in general, I would agree that an application that doesn,t normall have a web feature, should seperated. I would also apply this rule to a GUI interface. But where do we draw the line? Just because MSF2 didn't have a GUI or a webinterface, doesn't mean that people using version 3 won't want it. Then again, are really the ones who should make that decision? I do not believe so. But do we really want a metaspolit-core, metasploit-gui, and metasploit- web. I do see a benifit, as dependencies would be diffrent etc. And I for one rearly use the web interface, and the GUI is far from mature. But then enters the legality issue. Can we really split the package up? That would require upstream approval, or for them to alter the way they distribute the package, and I see no benifit for them to do either. Do you? Last but I am sure not least, updates. Metasploit is updated with SVN, which would replace the missing files, so the first time the user updates his metaspolit installation (core) he ends up with the same thing he would have gotten with -web and -gui. Where is the point in that? Of course we could modifiy the package further, and make it only update part of the package, based on what they install. But all of that would come far after Gutst, and be more likely after Metasploit LLC releases a license change, which is in the works. So, I do agree, that split packages could be benifitial, however, I do not this that should be the focus of this release. Instead, I think a solid package from SVN with all compoents is in order.

I think we know the license's intention, but we are not allowed to take a risk on behalf of Ubuntu regarding this. The guidelines are there to protect them. So, if we want to default to the least amount of risk, let's go with unmodified. Your only issue with adding it unmodified is that it may be rejected. When we submit it, we could let them know that the issues are only warnings at that they will be resolved in Gutsy+1. If they reject it then, we can send the modified version...

I basically just do a sed on the files and replace with (/usr/bin/env ruby). You could fix my script, if it is broken, but don't think it is! Or you could write another script/patch which does this. Or manually. Then we can get it packaged and uploaded for Gutsy. We only have two weeks though.

Re: [Bug 102212] Re: [needs-packaging] Metasploit Framework 3.0
When packaging you cannot modify the source package at all, other then through patches. As such I added the patch to the debian/rules. Let me check something. Thanks, Justin M.

Oh okay, didn't catch what you mean't. Sorry. Yes, I changed the directory, to back to the root.
