Sometimes, when I go through ITP bug reports, I find myself thinking "Hmmm, that's interesting stuff, I'll have to check that from time to time" (I also happen to discover software I did not know of this way). However, I'll never think something like that if I cannot figure what the software does, and that's a pity. My two cents !

Even better, in my experience, if the mail introducing the problem is well conceived, the authors are generally favourable. Especially if they did not license their software at all. Recently it took me one single mail to go from a proprietary license state to a GPL3+ licensed state. I usually offer two licenses as examples, even providing a short explanation of the choice between "permissive" (BSD-3-clause) and "restrictive" (GPL3). All of this also applies to documentation (and is part of my experience). Usually, making authors switch from the almost automatic "All rights reserved" motto to GPL (or similar) is not unfeasible.

Debian logo svg file is not loadable in Inkscape
Greetings, Fellow Debianists, this is not actually a bug report but something that might concern us all as a matter of Free Software use inside the Debian project: The Debian logo file at http://www.debian.org/logos/openlogo.svg fails to load in the much-respected SVG-based graphics editor Inkscape (which I use daily and which works fine also for svg files not produced by itself). The error is this: $ inkscape openlogo.svg openlogo.svg:18: namespace warning : xmlns: URI &ns_svg; is not absolute xmlns="&ns_svg;" xmlns:xlink="&ns_xlink;" xmlns:a="http://ns.adobe.com/AdobeSV ^ openlogo.svg:22: namespace warning : xmlns: URI &ns_vars; is not absolute ^ openlogo.svg:25: namespace warning : xmlns: URI &ns_custom; is not absolute ^ Note that The Gimp seems to load the file just fine, although also with an error message: Execution error for procedure 'gimp-vectors-import-from-file': Failed to import paths from 'openlogo.svg': Error on line 17: Entity name 'ns_extend' is not known Also, Iceweasel seems to load the file fine since it displays correctly. While I'm no expert in XML stuff, I see in the following lines at the top of the file that the problems might relate to some Adobe-specific namespace rules (or extensions, or whatever): http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-SVG-20010904/DTD/svg10.dtd"; [ http://ns.adobe.com/Flows/1.0/";> http://ns.adobe.com/Extensibility/1.0/";> http://ns.adobe.com/AdobeIllustrator/10.0/";> http://ns.adobe.com/Graphs/1.0/";> http://ns.adobe.com/Variables/1.0/";> http://ns.adobe.com/ImageReplacement/1.0/";> http://ns.adobe.com/SaveForWeb/1.0/";> http://ns.adobe.com/GenericCustomNamespace/1.0/";> http://ns.adobe.com/XPath/1.0/";> http://www.w3.org/2000/svg";> http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink";> ]> Because opening the file in The Gimp transforms the svg graphics object into a raster graphics object, the vector benefits of svg are lost and thus The Gimp cannot be used as a substitute of Inkscape. We may want to make sure that this file loads fine in Free Software graphics svg-based programs and maybe convert it to either a more generic svg file, or at least something free (Inkscape might be a good candidate for this).

Come on, John Paul Adrian, how can you assert all these things? Did you do any survey? Do you really think that your few colleagues actually are a mirror of a whole community of people using software for doing lots of different things? I do use plain GNU Emacs with a grahical interface (that is, with X11, not in console mode) the whole day, for doing either LaTeX, C/C++, Python, Bash, XML, WhatEver stuff... How about letting Mark do his job as a Debian Developer and judge him on his abilities to fix things? I have absolutely no interest in defining if XEmacs is worth it in Debian or not. The usage count should somehow help us. Can we assume that Mark will show a responsible behaviour? Also, may I ask how what he is trying to do is so detrimental to the project that we feel like spending time chirping about it? Don't we have other interesting Debian-Project-related things to discuss about ? > As I explained before, the problem with such packages is that they > can introduce unnecessary (RC) bugs which may delay the release > during the freeze.

If there are RC bugs for unused software, the software needs to be removed and thus does not go into stable. Period. If this removal work is done well before the freeze, better. Again, let Mark do his job and check the package in due time. > If someone is so keen to actually prefer XEmacs over emacs, they > can just download and build the package from source.

Re: Conflict between debian/upstream (DEP-12) & debian/upstream/ (uscan)
Greetings Fellow Developers, I would like to put here some words that I had in mind since I discovered the problem with the upstream file/dir in debian/. It is already a respectable while that we use the debian/upstream *file* for the documentation of bibliographic data in packages that might have articles published about the software packaged. I discovered recently that upstream was to become a directory in debian/. While I think that such a choice might be a reasonably good idea, I have to admit my astonishment at the total absence of information/discussion around that matter, from the side of the devscripts folks, as this choice fell us--designers and happy users of debian/upstream as a file totally out of the blue.

Why not put the key used to sign the > upstream source right into debian/source/? debian/source/ is for content related to the source package. debian/upstream/ would be for content related to upstream. There's a distinct separation there and as the signing key is, IMO, obviously upstream metadata it's not appropriate for debian/source/. The only relation it has to the source package is that it's used to verify one component of the source package. I wonder whether you have further files in mind which should end up in debian/upstream/ dir. Could your please give some reasons why you dropped the previously used location, debian/upstream-signing-key.pgp, in favour of introducing a directory which even conflicts with some other file name which is discussed in a DEP-12 without minding any discussion. IMHO, it is simply not the right way to to a grab into the name space without dicussion and creating work for your fellow DDs by doing so. +1 If I could see any vision behind your change I would have no problem to follow this vision but even if I have some very slight sympathy from the "esthetics" of naming I consider the principle of "never change a running system" as way more important than some slight esthetical change specifically introduced without any coordination / discussion in the first place. +1 In short: If there is some big plan for a debian/upstream/ dir please lay it out for public discussion. Otherwise I'd be in favour of reverting the change in devscripts. +1 Happy hacking, Filippo -- Filippo Rusconi, PhD - public crypto key C78F687C @ pgp.mit.edu Researcher at CNRS and Debian Developer Author of ``massXpert'' at http://www.massxpert.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#961085: ITP: toppic -- Top-down proteoform identification and characterization
Source: toppic Section: science Priority: optional Maintainer: The Debichem Group Uploaders: Filippo Rusconi Build-Depends: debhelper-compat (= 12), dpkg-dev (>= 1.18.25), cmake (>= 3.12) Standards-Version: 4.5.0 Homepage: http://proteomics.informatics.iupui.edu/software/toppic/index.html Vcs-Browser: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/toppic Vcs-Git: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/toppic.git Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Filippo Rusconi I intend to package the toppic software that is necessary to perform mass spectrometry-based protein identifications. This software will become essential in my own laboratory research, along with other software packages that I created and that I already maintain with the debichem team. I will maintain the package within the debichem team. Package: toppic Architecture: any Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends} Description: Top-down proteoform identification and characterization The TopPIC Suite consists of four software tools for the interpretation of top-down mass spectrometry data: TopFD, TopPIC, TopMG, and TopDiff. . - TopFD (Top-down mass spectral Feature Detection) is a software tool for top-down spectral deconvolution and a successor to MS-Deconv. It groups top-down spectral peaks into isotopomer envelopes and converts isotopomer envelopes to monoisotopic neutral masses. In addition, it extracts proteoform features from LC-MS or CE-MS data. . - TopPIC (Top-down mass spectrometry based Proteoform Identification and Characterization) identifies and characterizes proteoforms at the proteome level by searching top-down tandem mass spectra against a protein sequence database. TopPIC is a successor to MS-Align+. It efficiently identifies proteoforms with unexpected alterations, such as mutations and post-translational modifications (PTMs), accurately estimates the statistical significance of identifications, and characterizes reported proteoforms with unknown mass shifts. It uses several techniques, such as indexes, spectral alignment, generation function methods, and the modification identification score (MIScore), to increase the speed, sensitivity, and accuracy. . - TopMG (Top-down mass spectrometry based proteoform identification using Mass Graphs) is a software tool for identifying ultra-modified proteoforms by searching top-down tandem mass spectra against a protein sequence database. It is capable of identifying proteoforms with multiple variable PTMs and unexpected alterations, such as histone proteoforms and phosphorylated ones. It uses mass graphs, which efficiently represent candidate proteoforms with multiple variable PTMs, to increase the speed and sensitivity in proteoform identification. In addition, approximate spectrum-based filtering methods are employed for protein sequence filtering, and a Markov chain Monte Carlo method (TopMCMC) is used for estimating the statistical significance of identifications. . - TopDiff (Top-down mass spectrometry-based identification of Differentially expressed proteoforms) compares the abundances of proteoforms and finds differentially expressed proteoforms by using identifications of top-down mass spectrometry data of several protein samples.

Bug#961805: ITP: libcustompwiz -- Library to load mzML/mzXML files (dev files)
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Filippo Rusconi . * Package name: libcustompwiz Version : 3.0.0 Upstream Author : Filipo Rusconi and Proteowizard authors * URL : https://salsa.debian.org/debichem-team/custompwiz * License : GPL-3+ Programming Lang: C++ Description : Library to load mzML/mzXML files (dev files) . Description: Library to load mzML/mzXML files (dev files) . This library is a dumbed-down version of the Proteowizard library. This library only contains the required features to load standard mzML/mzXML mass spectrometry data files. The original project, that I used to package has abandoned the autotools build system and the bjam-based build system is not acceptable by me for its unbearable complexity. . The only features that are most often used by most projects from the original library are the mass spectrometry data file loading features (files in the mzML/mzXML standard format). A number of projects have included this subset directly in their source tree. I want to be able to prune that code from these projects' source tree and link to this library when I package the projects for Debian (for example, the toppic project that I uploaded recently to NEW). . See http://proteowizard.sourceforge.net/ for the original project.

Re: Next attempt to add Blends to Debian installer
Greetings, Andreas, and everybody, On Thu, Aug 16, 2018 at 10:34:36AM +0200, Andreas Tille wrote: Hi, to give some status information about how we can make Blends more visible at installer stage: Holger Levsen, Phil Hands, Steve McIntyre and I had some discussion in DebCamp. The conclusion was that adding Blends to the installer tasksel menu would be perfectly possible if tasksel itself would provide some menu hierarchy. We all agreed that the current selection of tasks needs some overhaul in general. It could provide some menu item: "Select Blend" (or rather some better text here!) and than you get a selection of Blends to pick (one or more) from. For the Stretch release Phil even wrote some code in this direction that needs some refresh. (Phil, can you give some pointer if there is something to test?) Any comments / code contributions are welcome. Please, add some small strophe to explain what a blend is, as I can tell that this is not something widely known even to seasoned Debian users/admins (have examples from research labs). Also, when I installed debian-science and debichem last time, the process downloaded such an amount of software that it almost filled my disk (which I was not suspecting). Maybe, a rough indication of the used disk space in front of each blend might be useful, in this respect. Just my 2 cents, along with my very best wishes, Filippo -- ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ Filippo Rusconi, PhD ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ Scientist at CNRS ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋⠀ Debian Developer ⠈⠳⣄ http://msxpertsuite.org http://www.debian.org

Re: Adding SONAME to a shared object in KLEE
libQtSvg.so.4 NEEDED libQtGui.so.4 NEEDED libQtXml.so.4 NEEDED libQtCore.so.4 NEEDED libstdc++.so.6 NEEDED libm.so.6 NEEDED libgcc_s.so.1 NEEDED libc.so.6 Now, as you can see, the listed names are all SONAMES : lib.so.. For example, if I now want to see the files relating to libQtCore.so.4: ls /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so* -l 18 Jan 12 05:15 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so -> libQtCore.so.4.8.6 18 Jan 12 05:15 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so.4 -> libQtCore.so.4.8.6 18 Jan 12 05:15 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so.4.8 -> libQtCore.so.4.8.6 3033168 Jan 12 05:17 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so.4.8.6 You can see that the real library name is indeed libQtCore.so.4.8.6, of size 3033168, and the other ones are only symbolic links. OK, NOW THAT WE HAVE THESE FUNDAMENTALS HOW WOULD WE BE DOING WITH libkleeRuntest library ? The real name = Generate the library right from the build with the proper name: libkleeRuntest.so.1.1 How would we do that ? We need to tell the linker how to create the library file: compilation flags to build your libkleeRuntest shared object lib: -shared -fPIC -Wl,-soname,libkleeRuntest.so.1.1 -o libkleeRuntest.so.1.1 These flags need to go in the makefile that drives the build of the library. This will build the properly-named lib file: libkleeRuntest.so.1.1. You can check that by running this command: readelf -d libkleeRuntest.so.1.1 will output something like: Dynamic section at offset 0xb8c0 contains 26 entries: TagType Name/Value 0x0001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libgcc_s.so.1] 0x0001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libc.so.6] 0x000e (SONAME) Library soname: [libkleeRuntest.so.1] 0x000c (INIT) 0x4e68 0x000d (FINI) 0x965c As you can see, the SONAME is correctly mentioned now. This is all we need to make real-world UNIX-based libs. Now, we still need the symbolic links, and this is your debian packager duty. How is this implemented in Debian and Debian-based systems ? When packaging libraries, we always start from a source package that somehow only ships the original source tarball plus methods to build the binary packages. A random user will only want binary packages because she would not even know what to do with a source package. The software will be shipped as source in the debian source package named libkleeruntest. This source package will contain an attached archive file containing a debian/ directory plus all of its contents. In the debian/* files, we document how to process the source package to actually build binary packages. For each source package that contains a library (or set of libraries, as is your case) we need to produce two different binary packages: libkleeruntest1, which is the binary package that a user will have to install if she ever needs to install a package that makes use of that library. This package only contains the REAL-NAME file and the SONAME-to-REAL-NAME symbolic link. libkleeruntest-dev, which is the binary package that ships all the files needed for the use of the library from a development perspective. That is the package where the /usr/include/*.h[pp] files are shipped. We also ship the second LINKER-NAME-to-REAL-NAME symbolic link. In most cases, the -dev package is not versioned: it is typically the last version of the library which in turn depends on the other binary package of the same version, that of course ships the real library file. Hope this helps. I tried to ./configure the package, but I am missing a library on this system and I cannot install it. If you cannot succeed with the explanations above, send the makefile's (there are some, I saw) and I'll try to see if I can help.
