Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 1.0-3 of my package "ethstats". This is a very simple, lightweight, easy to use tool for gathering and displaying the throughput of the network interfaces. Of course, it's far from iptraf or wireshark, but sometimes one needs just a couple of numbers.
I'm adopting ethstats, and I've overhauled the Debian packaging a lot, bringing it up to the current standards and tools. It builds a single binary package: ethstats - script that quickly measures network device throughput The package has been tested with lintian and pbuilder. The upload would fix these bugs: 519342 The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/e/ethstats/ethstats_1.0-3.dsc I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me. Just for reference, here's the changelog entry of my adoption update: ethstats (1.0-3) unstable; urgency=low * New maintainer. Closes: #519342 * Keep everything in the debian/ directory: - remove the ethstats copy of ethstats.pl and regenerate it in the "build" target - move the ethstats.sgml manual page into debian/ - remove the manual page in the "clean" target * Add a watch file. * Use debian/compat to specify the debhelper compatibility level. * Clean up the rules file: - remove lots of useless commented-out stuff - remove the useless and empty configure target - remove the nostrip and noopt handling - it's a Perl script! - remove lots of useless debhelper tool invocations - move many debhelper tool invocations from the binary target to the install target, where the dh utility would place them - this is an arch-independent package, so use binary-indep, not binary-arch! * Move docbook-to-man to B-D-I from B-D. * Remove the dot at the end of the package synopsis. * Depend on "perl", not "perl5". * Bump the debhelper compatibility level to 7: - add misc:Depends to the binary package - minimize the rules file * Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.1 with no changes. * Convert the copyright file to the machine-parseable format and add my copyright notice. -- Peter Pentchev <r...@ringlet.net> Sat, 09 May 2009 16:43:44 +0300 G'luck, Peter -- Peter Pentchev r...@ringlet.net r...@space.bg r...@freebsd.org PGP key: http://people.FreeBSD.org/~roam/roam.key.asc Key fingerprint FDBA FD79 C26F 3C51 C95E DF9E ED18 B68D 1619 4553 This sentence claims to be an Epimenides paradox, but it is lying.
