Re: Status of BioCocoa (Was: trunk/packages/biococoa)
BioCocoa is ready for upload! The bits of code under question were re-released under the Lucent Public License 1.02 which should pass Debian guidelines.

Bug#596733: unblock: ncbi-tools6/6.1.20100808-1 (as -2)
Package: release.debian.org Severity: normal User: release.debian@packages.debian.org Usertags: unblock Greetings! ncbi-tools6 recently had its first upstream release in a year, issued a few days before your latest announcement. (As the version number indicates, the sources themselves are somewhat older; however, the public release thereof didn't occur until August 27.) Here's the changelog block: ncbi-tools6 (6.1.20100808-1) experimental; urgency=low * New upstream release; the upgrade to BLAST 2.2.24 (from 2.2.21) should address a formatdb regression. (LP: #586219.) * Uploading to experimental because squeeze is frozen. * debian/rules - Clean up compilation settings; in particular, use dpkg-buildflags rather than relying on dpkg-buildpackage to have set CFLAGS appropriately. - (clean): restore expected empty directories if necessary, for compatibility with VCSes (notably git) that don't track them. - (install-indep-stamp): adapt to new ncbilogo.ico contents. - (VIB): add asndisc, as upstream takes care to publish binaries thereof. * debian/ncbi-tools6.install: likewise add asndisc. * (debian/).gitignore: Ignore content generated during build. * debian/lib{ncbi6,vibrant6a}.symbols: update for latest release. * make/makenet.unx: don't link asndisc against extraneous libraries. * doc/man/*.1: update for latest release. * doc/man/asndisc.1: throw together a man page for asndisc. * doc/man/cleanasn.1: fix SEE ALSO formatting. * debian/control: - bump dpkg-dev build-dep to >= 1.15.7 for dpkg-buildflags. - Standards-Version: 3.9.1 (already compliant). - note switch to git-mediated Debian-Med team maintenance. -- Aaron M. Ucko Fri, 03 Sep 2010 17:43:17 -0400 In particular, please note that this upload fixes a nasty regression reported in Launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ncbi-tools6/+bug/586219 There's no corresponding Debian bug report at present, but I can formally issue one if you'd like. ;-) At any rate, I uploaded my packages of the new release to experimental out of respect for the freeze, but would greatly appreciate it if you could please authorize a reupload to unstable with the intent of making it into squeeze. I concede that the diff http://git.debian.org/?p=debian-med/ncbi-tools6.git;a=commitdiff;hp=3a98718;h=c4b77b0 is on the large side; however, the impact on reverse dependencies should be negligible, as most of the changed interfaces are only used internally. (Also, leaving out changes to spacing and fully generated files helps a fair bit; the result is still larger than I care to attach :-/, but I've posted a copy at http://people.debian.org/~ucko/ncbi-tools6_6.1.20100808-1.full-diff that you're welcome to review as you see fit.) Per reportbug, I'm including the relevant unblock directive for your convenience: unblock ncbi-tools6/6.1.20100808-2 Thanks in advance for considering this request; please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-med-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Well, we failed to reach the freeze date. However, I guess the world will not stop spinning around of this and we should probably build the package without hecticness. Scott, you once worked on this package. Would you volunteer to prepare final packages for upload. I'm currently a bit distracted by other tasks (GNUmed packaging, some Blends infrastraucture things, etc.) For sure other volunteers are welcome as well.

I'm not sure what's involved in upload though. I've checked in changes to the debian-med repository and verified the package builds. If you can point me to a document about other tasks, I will be happy to do them. Scott -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-med-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
