RFS: imagination (adopting orphaned package)
Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 1.5-3 of the package
"imagination". I am adopting an orphaned package.
It builds these binary packages:
imagination - DVD slide show maker
The package appears to be lintian clean and builds in a clean sid pbuilder.
The upload would fix these bugs: 543846
The changes are mostly trivial:
imagination (1.5-3) unstable; urgency=low
* New maintainer. (Closes: #543846)
* debian/control:
- Add Vcs-* fields.
- Extend description.
- Rename Suggests on *-unstripped-* packages to the new
*-extra-* packages.
* Add debian/watch file.
* debian/copyright: Replace deprecated symbol (C) with ©.
* Move imagination.{xpm,1} to debian/ and install them from
debian/rules. Delete debian/manpages/, debian/pixmaps/, and
imagination.{manpages,install}.
Please note that the new watch file doesn't currently work, but that
is because of a bug in the sourceforge redirector. See:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=543711
The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/i/imagination
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
main contrib non-free
- dget
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/i/imagination/imagination_1.5-3.dsc
I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.
Kind regards
Andrew Starr-Bochicchio
P.S. I am not subscribed to pkg-multimedia-maintainers, please CC me
in replies. This package is not currently in pkg-multimedia, but I
might be interested in maintaining it there if the team is interested
in the package.

Just for the record: I did not intend to be the sole maintainer, so I filed a RFH, though after I was delegated as DPL assistant, I decided to just orphan the package as it was clear that I would not have enough time to maintain it properly anymore.

Re: Issue with dpkg-shlibdepds
Thanks Mike. Sorted that issue out. Didn't realize I'd commented out dh_makeshlibs =) Another issue sprung up, though. What I need to be able to do now is have libngi3 (0.8) and libngi3 (0.9) installed at the same time. They don't share any binaries that are the same. I assume this means that I actually have to make libngi3-0.9 and libngi3-0.8 packages as separate entities? Or is there a way to make a package not replace itself if there's something using it?

Re: Issue with dpkg-shlibdepds
If this is the case, is there an easy way to insert a variable of sorts into the package name and also as the files used for the .dirs and .install file? If possible, I'd like to automate as much as possible of the version incrementing, but currently I need to change the configure.in (which is fine), change control, changelog and rename the include and dirs files.

RFS: python-sqlkit
Dear mentors, I'd like to find a sponsor for my package 'python-sqlkit' * Package name: python-sqlkit Version : 0.8.6 Upstream Author : Sandro Dentella (san...@e-den.it) - myself * URL : http://sqlkit.argolinux.org * License : GPL-3+ Programming Lang: python Description : GUI app and package to build database based applications It's a package for pygtk library 'sqlkit'. The package can be downloaded from: - http://sqlkit.argolinux.org/sqlkit/download.html - hg clone http://hg.argolinux.org/py/sqlkit (mercurial) Sqlkit it's a pygtk package that provides GUI widgets to edit databases in table or mask (form) fasion. It lets you edit joins of almost any sqlalchemy selectable, lets you edit related table and much more. Official home is http://sqlkit.argolinux.org The release 0.8.6, the first stable release after 10 month trial period in a production environment will be released in a couple of days. The package appears lintian clean, but some more work may be needed, and I'd be glad to do it after clearifying some issues on the list as for name (it both a python package and a GUI application) and upstream (packaging has the debian folder that seems not to be the suggested solution).
