Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-CC: debian-scie...@lists.debian.org
Dear mentors and science team, I am looking for a sponsor for my package "intel-mkl". I'm a Debian Developer but I don't have backports ACL permission. I filed this RFS because I don't need that permission. Of all my packages, only intel-mkl is worth backporting. * Package name : intel-mkl Version : 2019.0.117-2~bpo9+1 Upstream Author : Intel * URL : https://software.intel.com/en-us/mkl * License : Intel Simplified Software License (ISSL) Section : non-free/math Backports-Justification: * The best (yet non-free) x86 CPU based BLAS/LAPACK implementation. * Expected to be very stable for Debian stable users. * This package has migrated into testing. How to build this package and prepare *_multi.changes for stretch-bpo: 1. Clone https://salsa.debian.org/science-team/intel-mkl And checkout to the "stretch-bpo" branch. 2. Download orig.tar.gz from the archive. 3. Build package for amd64 and i386, respectively. 4. mergechanges -f xxx_amd64.changes xxx_i386.changes 5. changestool xxx_multi.changes updatechecksums 6. debsign and dput. Changes since the last upload: intel-mkl (2019.0.117-2~bpo9+1) stretch-backports; urgency=medium * Downgrade python3 requirement to (>= 3.5) * Downgrade debhelper compat level to 10. * Enable control.bpo.py script in rules. * Backport to stretch. Debdiff and Justification: * The debhelper compat level downgrade is very safe since this package is just repacking upstream binary tarball. * control.py is originally written in python3.6 . In order to build this package, I wrote control.bpo.py which automatically edits control.py, making it compatible with python3.5 . It actually replaces the following pattern (python3.6 feature: format string) f'blah {var1} blah {var2}' into 'blah {var1} blah {var2}'.format(**locals()) control.bpo.py has been verified in one of my VMs (stretch). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- diff --git a/debian/changelog b/debian/changelog index b1223f2..a5ec794 100644 --- a/debian/changelog +++ b/debian/changelog @@ -1,3 +1,12 @@ +intel-mkl (2019.0.117-2~bpo9+1) stretch-backports; urgency=medium + + * Downgrade python3 requirement to (>= 3.5) + * Downgrade debhelper compat level to 10. + * Enable control.bpo.py script in rules. + * Backport to stretch. + + -- Mo Zhou <cdlumin...@gmail.com> Tue, 25 Sep 2018 08:19:29 +0000 + intel-mkl (2019.0.117-2) unstable; urgency=medium * Export HOME=/tmp/ to fix FTBFS due to the failure that rpm would diff --git a/debian/compat b/debian/compat index b4de394..f599e28 100644 --- a/debian/compat +++ b/debian/compat @@ -1 +1 @@ -11 +10 diff --git a/debian/control b/debian/control index 6566846..f5ec94b 100644 --- a/debian/control +++ b/debian/control @@ -3,11 +3,11 @@ Section: non-free/science Priority: optional Maintainer: Debian Science Maintainers <debian-science-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> Uploaders: Mo Zhou <cdlumin...@gmail.com>, -Build-Depends: debhelper (>=11~), +Build-Depends: debhelper (>=10~), dh-exec, # The script control.py requires python3 >= 3.6 . # but you can patch it with debian/bpo.patch to support python3 >= 3.5 . - python3 (>= 3.6), + python3 (>= 3.5), rpm, cpio, rpm2cpio, diff --git a/debian/rules b/debian/rules index 91f4bc5..805a4bc 100755 --- a/debian/rules +++ b/debian/rules @@ -45,7 +45,7 @@ autogen: extract-rpms $(AUTOGEN_FILES) chmod +x debian/libmkl-dev.postinst debian/libmkl-dev.prerm debian/libmkl-dev.config override_dh_auto_configure: autogen - #python3 debian/control.bpo.py # Patch control.py to support python3.5 + python3 debian/control.bpo.py # Patch control.py to support python3.5 python3 debian/control.py # Generate install files and lintian overrides # deal with embedded libjs-jquery
