I can't reproduce this; can you put your package and patch somewhere to
take a look at it? (And there might be a DD around who can help too.)

Dear mentors,

* Package name: spacehero
  Version : 0.0.4-1

* URL : http://spacehero.koalo.de
* License : GPLv2
  Section : games

It builds these binary packages:
spacehero  - Space game to let you simulate Galaxies.

The package appears to be lintian clean.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/spacehero

contrib non-free

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.

Kind regards

RFS: weborf

2009-02-19 Thread Karun Dambiec
Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "weborf".

* Package name: weborf
  Version : 0.9-1
  Upstream Author : Salvo 'LtWorf' Tomaselli 
* URL : http://galileo.dmi.unict.it/wiki/weborf/
* License : GPL v3
  Section : net

It builds these binary packages:
weborf - webserver to rapidly share directories without being root

 Fast and small webserver, has the basedir option and can be launched
 directly from shell without being root,
 so the users can use it to share directories using HTTP protocol.

The upload would fix these bugs: 506771

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/w/weborf
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
main contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/w/weborf/weborf_0.9-1.dsc

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.

Kind regards

You claim in debian/copyright you downloaded it from
http://spacehero.koalo.de/, but that website directly only lists
a different file with a different version number.

Other packaging things:
 * Standards-Version is already a bit old
 * the description is a bit terse
 * You do not seem to build with the suggested -O2 -g, and support for
   noopt is also not there.
 * debian/rules could need a major clean up, configure not needed and things 
like that
 * what about a menu entry?


As you also seem to be one of the upstream authors:
How about putting a copyright notice in the actual sources?

Some tipps about the Makefile:
* Adding -l in LDFLAGS before the objects will break static linking.
  (usually one has a LIBS that is added afterwards for those)
* it's nice to split preprocessor flags and compiler flags.
  (Best way is some CXXFLAGS for the compiler flags, CPPFLAGS for
   the preprocessor flags (like -D or `sdl-config --cflags`), adding
   the link call also the CXXFLAGS but not the CPPFLAGS, and when
   compiling both. Extra points for splitting things a user most likely
   wants to override CPPFLAGS and some intern preprocessor flags (like
   the `sdl-config --cflags` might want to keep even when setting other
   CPPFLAGS))
  The way you implement those also breaks for people wanting to give
  make some CXXFLAGS or LDFLAGS (as that would overide the settings in the
  makefile)

Hochachtungsvoll,
Bernhard R. Link

    This is somewhat debatable.

Sometimes ago I had a discussion with upstream about poor weborf performance. I
think he didn't care about my objections, now with a simple "ab -n 1000 -c 100

Not being a developer, this is review only, but there is plenty to get

Did you run lintian on your built package? The version in sid says:

You can see the full texts with more information about how to fix them
by using 'lintian -iIE' on your .changes file.

I couldn't make your package build in a sid chroot without making some
changes to debian/control:
 - remove invalid field 'Version'
 - move fields 'Depends', 'Recommends' and 'Suggests' into the binary
   package where they belong

Is there some reason your binary package is Architecture: i386 instead
of Architecture: any?

There are still a few source files that don't have GPL grants in the
headers, consider adding them. licensecheck is a good quick check, but
it can be caught out, so check every file by hand too.

You could also consider making your changes to qelectrotech.pro and
sources/qet.h with a patch system instead of directly.

If anything doesn't make sense please ask.

RFS:greyfix

2009-02-19 Thread mezgani ali
Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for the package "greyfix".

Package name: greyfix
Version : 0.3.9
Upstream Author : Kim Minh Kaplan

>
URL : http://www.kim-minh.com/pub/greyfix/
License : IBM public License
Section : mail
Description : greyfix is policy daemon for postfix.


It uses Postfix policy mechanism to enable greylisting and defending e-mail
users against spam. greyfix is written in c, and uses also DB Berkeley as
database back-ends

The upload would fix these bugs:#515149

This is the first official release upload to debian.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net
URL : http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/greyfix

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.

Do you plan to join the Debian Games Team and maintain this there? We
