I rather use a MTA that implements SMTP time delays to force the
spammer to slow down, thank you very much. I even endorse greylisting
(with a whitelist) nowadays, but you'll never see me endorsing QMail
until it is patched.

I rather not force other mail admins to implement measurements to deal
with another MTA's stupidity.

Re: Packages still depending on GTK+ 1.2

Hi Morten,

With its thousands of packages, Debian is not so rich in manpower, so if the
current maintainers of GTK+ 1.2 want to abandon it and the QA team is not
interested in keeping it, there is no other choice than to adopt it (and its 43
bugs) if you want it to stay in Debian. It had less than upload per year since
2003, so maybe it is doable. Also, I think that it is possible to opt-out
security support if this an issue (but it might make the package unfit for
release).

In our experience with GAMGI (http://www.gamgi.org/), GTK+ 1.2 was indeed
useful to prepare a preliminary package that helped to convince Upstream to GTK
2.0.

Have a nice day,

IMHO audacious is a pretty decent alternative to xmms, though I prefer vlc for 
both audio and video. Of course your mileage may vary.

Is it related to the tango package

preliminary package is available at
http://mentors.debian.net/cgi-bin/sponsor-pkglist?action=details;package=tango

Bug#508082: ITP: tuxcmd-modules -- vfs modules for tuxcmd file manager

2008-12-07 Thread Salvatore Bonaccorso
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Salvatore Bonaccorso <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

* Package name: tuxcmd-modules
  Version : 0.6.50
  Upstream Author : Tomáš Bžatek <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://tuxcmd.sourceforge.net/
* License : GPL
  Programming Lang: C, C++
  Description : VFS modules for tuxcmd file manager

This package contains additional VFS modules for tuxcmd. It 
provides the modules for GVFS and zip plugins.

 * GVFS plugin: read/write access to network resources (FTP, 
   SSH/SFTP, SMB, WebDAV) 
 * zip plugin:
   - full read/write support for ZIP archives
   - full support for Unix file and directory permissions
   - password protection support (read/write)
   - statically linked in one module, no external libraries needed 
 

tuxcmd-modules should provide these additional modules for the existing
ITP http://bugs.debian.org/498513 which I haven't requested to upload
yet (but is on mentors.debian.net awaiting a sponsor and feedback).

The package would not contain also the other modules, so the original
upstream tarball has to be repackaged and exlude at least the
libarchive and unrar directories.

Are there any suggestion or feedback to this request?

Kind regards
Salvatore

  Upstream Author : Apache Software Foundation
* URL : http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/
* License : Apache-2.0
  Programming Lang: Java
  Description : Maven compiler plugin
 Maven is a software project management and comprehension tool. Based on the
 concept of a project object model (POM), Maven can manage a project's build,
 reporting and documentation from a central piece of information.
 .
 Maven's primary goal is to allow a developer to comprehend the complete
 state of a development effort in the shortest period of time. In order to
 attain this goal there are several areas of concern that Maven attempts
 to deal with:
 .
* Making the build process easy
* Providing a uniform build system
* Providing quality project information
* Providing guidelines for best practices development
* Allowing transparent migration to new features
 .
 The Compiler Plugin is used to compile the sources of your project. The
 default compiler is javac and is used to compile Java sources.

  Description : Plexus Interpolation API
 The Plexus project provides a full software stack for creating and executing
 software projects. Based on the Plexus container, the applications can
 utilise component-oriented programming to build modular, reusable components
 that can easily be assembled and reused.
 .
 While Plexus is similar to other inversion-of-control (IoC) or dependency
 injection frameworks such as the Spring Framework, it is a full-fledged
 container that supports many more features such as:
 .
 * Component lifecycles
 * Component instantiation strategies
 * Nested containers
 * Component configuration
 * Auto-wiring
 * Component dependencies, and
 * Various dependency injection techniques including constructor injection,
   setter injection, and private field injection.
 .
 Plexus interpolator is focused on providing a more modular, flexible
 interpolation framework for the expression language style commonly seen in
 Maven, Plexus, and other related projects.

Bug#508112: ITP: pdk -- 64 Studio GNU/Linux Platform Development Kit (PDK)

2008-12-07 Thread Free Ekanayaka
Package: wnpp
Owner: Free Ekanayaka <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Severity: wishlist

* Package name: pdk
  Version : 0.9.9
  Upstream Author : Progeny Linux Systems Inc. - 64 Studio Ltd.
* URL or Web page : http://trac.64studio.com/pdk
* License : GPL
  Description : 64 Studio GNU/Linux Platform Development Kit (PDK)

 PDK is a platform for building specialized GNU/Linux distributions. PDK
 provides developers with a set of reusable building blocks, called components,
 which can be easily assembled into a wide variety of configurations and
 customized as necessary. It combines this componentized platform with a set
 of technologies (covering installation, software management, and hardware
 detection, with more on the way) that span traditional distribution boundaries
 and transform the assembled components into a complete distribution.
 .
 This package contains the 64 Studio GNU/Linux Platform Development Kit (PDK).
 Essentially, you can think of the PDK as "version control for
 distributions"--it's intended to be a full suite of tools for building and
 maintaining a component-based distribution, from assembling a full distro from
 a set of pre-built components to managing the evolution of the distro over time
 to incorporate upstream changes to building your own custom components to
 specifying global configuration like branding to integrating distro-specific
 patches and managing the changes over time.
