For good reason. The resource in question is physical memory. You could
lock all the free memory with this program (thereby condemning it to swap
death) if you're not VERY careful.

No.  But you could send a wishlist bug to the dh_make (or debmake, whichever

I have changed this thing in autotools-dev' README for quite a while.
The old cp way was there to satisfy some weird notion people (and even I,

If it needs config.sub or config.guess, then you need them in. Otherwise
you obviously don't.  I suggest you grep for them in your source tree.

config.sub is needed everywhere autoconf was used (it is called by the
configure script). config.guess is often needed as well, either because
you don't want users asking why calling ./configure doesn't work, or
because you don't call configure properly in your debian/rules file
in the first place (HINT: You are to tell it the build and target
platforms using info from the proper env. variables).

RFS: kdiff3 - compares and merges 2 or 3 files or directories

2003-11-07 Thread Eike Sauer
Hello!

While trying to do something useful for Debian by fixing
an RC bug, I needed a graphical diff and merge tool.
I found kdiff3 for KDE. I wondered why it is not yet 
packaged, so it became my first public package. If there's 
a better graphical diff already in Debian, I'd really like 
to know (and have kdiff3 sponsored nevertheless).

Package name: kdiff3
Version : 0.9.71
URL : http://kdiff3.sourceforge.net
License : GPL
Description: compares and merges 2 or 3 files or directories
 KDiff3 compares two or three input files and shows the differences 
 line by line and character by character. It provides an automatic 
 merge facility and an integrated editor for comfortable solving of 
 merge conflicts. KDiff3 allows recursive directory comparison and 
 merging as well.

The package lintian and linda clean.

Some of the entries in Build-Depends were neccessary to build
it with pbuilder. I wonder why. (Just have a look at them and 
consider sponsoring meanwhile. ;o) )

The package as I'd like to have it uploaded can be found here:
http://user.cs.tu-berlin.de/~eikes/debian/kdiff3/

Another package - as pdebuild built it - is not installable 
on my system due to dependency problems.
dpkg says: "kdiff3 depends on libc6 (>= 2.3.2.ds1-4)", but
I could not satisfy this with the most recent unstable libc.

Ciao,
Eike

It is a known error in dh-make (Bug #213118), simply quote the "$(CFLAGS)"
part in the line containing the ./configure command to start like this:

New-Boy: GPG Trouble + some more [long]

2003-11-07 Thread blacksheep
Hi everybody, I've just come here and wish to join soon the 
Debian Project. After reading some documentation, I've 
generated a PGP key and reached the nearest Debian Developer
in my country to get the key signed. I got it, but 
he warned me that the key should better NOT expire, whilst I
generated a key with an expire date of 1 year from that day.

Is that a problem ?
I mean, should I generate a new key and get back to him
with that to be signed again? Isn't there any way to avoid 
going back and meet him _physically_ ?

Currently, I am looking for a ``mentor'', while the developer I
met could be my ``sponsor''. Maybe I misunderstood something,
and he could be them both. In advance, I would show you my 
creature; I packaged a pre-preview here:

http://www.lulli.net/paolo/hack/plml/plml_0.1-1_i386.deb 

It is a SGML DTD and tools; some documentations about :

http://www.lulli.net/paolo/hack.html --> PLML

I know I should write some more man pages, but `lintian' says 
something more I cannot understand:
   
E: plml: FSSTND-dir-in-usr usr/man/ 
W: plml: unknown-section unknown

Try rerun lintian with a -i option. It should tell you more.
It seems that your postinst script makes symlink to /usr/doc.

You should set section. For this package probably the best choice will
be "text".

Wouldn't

I think if you sign the new key with the old one,
you should be able to convince him (by mail) that 
the new one is valid as well. :o)

It's possible (and reasonable) when he becomes both.

You should use /usr/share/man instead.

You obviously didn't change the section of your package

Wouldn't

CFLAGS += .configure [...]

be a lot easier in most cases?

I think if you sign the new key with the old one,
you should be able to convince him (by mail) that 
the new one is valid as well. :o)

You should use /usr/share/man instead.

It will be a problem one year from now :-)
The easiest option is to edit the key and remove or change the
expiration date with --edit-key and the "expire" command.
