I think that's cool, but don't understand where cvs-tracker comes in the
picture. I'm adding ubuntu-harcoded to hear their opinions

Looking for maintainer of ruby1.9 / rubygems1.9 packages

2008-07-21 Thread Tony Arcieri
Hello, I'm trying to track down the person maintains the ruby1.9 packages.

I noticed in intrepid there was an attempt to split ruby1.9 and rubygems1.9
into separate packages.  At present the rubygems1.9 package appears to be
completely broken (due to problems with the compiled-in gem_prelude.rb in
the Ruby interpreter).

Can anyone point me towards who I should be talking to about this package?

debsecan needs to be patched to download CVE meta-data from Launchpad,
and someone needs to maintain the data in Launchpad.

Well, if that is really a problem...

if someone is going to fix this asap, I can provide bandwidth (or if
it's really a cool security update package tracker for debian and
ubuntu we can also ask to host the server side somewhere at CDC).

But bandwidth is not a problem...and a server is always there...

that was my first thougth too, which made me test the tool to find it
works just fine in 8.04 (indeed not taking ubuntu security updates into
account that might have fixed the listed debian side issue already) ...
what Florian was concerned about above is that it uses debian server
resources to obtain the list, our userbase is big enough to put an
inconvenient extra amount of bandwith onto their servers if i.e. someone
blogs about the tool on planet.ubuntu.com ...

so a server of any kind and someone to take care of it would be needed
for a start, looking at the code some minor changes would be needed to
the defaults to make it point to the ubuntu server instead of the debian
one ...
(and preferably the server sided list should take the USN list into
account instead of the debian list of issues)
