Bug#694632: ITP: prime-phylo -- Bayesian estimation of gene trees taking the species tree into account
Hi Erik, it seems I missed your ITP - otherwise I would have most probably pinged you whether you intent to do the packaging inside the Debian Med team. We try to inject medical and microbiological software into Debian and your ITP seems to fit perfectly into our biology task[1]. So I would suggest you join the Debian Med team (I checked whether you just have an account on alioth.debian.org but failed in searching for your name - otherwise I would have added you to the team right now). All steps are described in our team policy[2]. Meanwhile I might check your packaging you provided at mentors however, I would strongly recommend (you might need require) that you choose at your preference either our SVN or Git repository (see [2]) for your packaging work to enable effective team maintenance. For instance I would turn your citation of the scientific paper into a debian/upstream reference which is way more flexible than simply putting it into the long description (which is deprecated). I hope you like this idea and we would be very happy to welcome you in our team. Kind regards Andreas.

Re: RFS: sipvicious/0.2.7-1 [ITP] Tools to audit SIP based VoIP systems
For support@m.d.n: I believe the below package to be undistributable due to lacking and wrong license declarations.

Can you briefly explain the relation of the tool to similar utilities such as sipsak or sip-tester? > dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/sipvicious > /sipvicious_0.2.7-1.dsc I had a look at your package. debian/changelog lists "UNRELEASED" as distribution. This has to be changed before uploading. The Build-Depends seem strange to me. Can you explain why you depend on "python | python-all |python-dev | python-all-dev"? In any case listing python-dev there seems like a Python Policy violation. Appendix A says: | Packages that do not require the -dev packages must not build-depend | on them. debian/copyright uses two different names to reference the same GPL version. Usage of "GPL-2.0+" seems uncommon as well. Maybe you can make this more consistent? Looking deeper you can see that GPL-2 is actually wrong. The works are even incompatible with GPL-2 as can be seen in the header of svcrack.py for example. debian/copyright also does not mention the addition of works authored by Andi Albrecht. Indeed I totally failed to find a license for those works so far. That would make your package undistributeable. Going further your manual pages seem to based on the help messages of the tools. To me it seems like the pages need to be considered derivative works. That means they lack copyright statements for upstream. debian/rules still contains comments from dh-make. Can you clean those? Maybe I missed something, but why do you Build-Depend on python-support and then use dh --with python2 instead? That dependency seems useless. And why do you use any of those tools when you don't ship any Python modules? Upstream ships Berkely DB files. I was wondering if they are in "preferred form for modification" according to said GPL-2^H3. Furthermore those Berkley DB files are accessed from svfphelper.py using relative paths. So after installing those tools, the databases will not be found unless you first cd to /usr/share/sipvicious. You list a homepage in debian/changelog, but it is notably absent in debian/control. Maybe you can add that? To me it seems like more work is needed before prime time. Helmut -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Re: polipo 1.0.4.1-2 2012-11-22 19:14
Bart, thank you for having a look at the polipo package. My intention is to take over maintenance of the package together with Donovan. Very broadly speaking, Donovan will be the one focusing on the code and upstream (with an eye to taking over upstream) and me being the packaging guy. The bugs you mentioned look like pretty tough nuts. They might be fixed in the latest upstream git, but that would be no help for wheezy unless a minimal patch could be extracted for backporting. 610199 has a proposed patch so chances are better. But in the end I don't think making promises for wheezy other than "we'll do our best" would be fair. Polipo is in a very dire state, basically and frankly unusable in Debian. That will take a lot of work to fix going forward. If a fix can be made for the stable releases they will get it. But I am not going to put too much effort into it before actually having become maintainer to make sure my work will not bitrot and be wasted. Regards Rolf PS: The proposed patch at least applies cleanly even to the older upstream code so there is hope. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
