If these changes are inevitable, it's really up to you as to when you
want to make them happen (I'd suggest that doing them early in the
release cycle is better than later, however). I think these changes
sound fine in principle, although a debdiff would certainly make it
easier to make a judgment. Either way, please be sure to test various
upgrade scenarios with piuparts and/or manually using a chroot/VM
before uploading your package!

Vincent

and propose what?

they are doing a correct development IMHO. The have libraries installed in the 
correct place. They develop software components and install them under 
/usr/lib/$TARGET where $TARGET is the main kind of OS (gnulinux, xenomai 
based, etc). They load their components dynamically using some kind of plugin 
system. 

I don't know how to handle all of this stuff. Probably I was not clear in my 
email. Maybe I should rename the package and not treat them as library and put 
plugin in some part of the name.

Best regards,

Leopold

Sounds like the only thing they need to do is to install them into the
right path:

/usr/lib/$PACKAGE/plugins/

Maybe they even already have a configure option for that?

No, it's more complicated than that. It's a complex piece of software that 
could be compiled against several flavors and install their components in 
/usr/lib/orocos/$target/$component/plugins or 
/usr/lib/orocos/$target/$component/typekits. 

For instance,

$ tree -fi /usr/lib/orocos/gnulinux/rtt_ros
/usr/lib/orocos/gnulinux/rtt_ros
/usr/lib/orocos/gnulinux/rtt_ros/plugins
/usr/lib/orocos/gnulinux/rtt_ros/plugins/librtt_ros_service-gnulinux.so
/usr/lib/orocos/gnulinux/rtt_ros/types
/usr/lib/orocos/gnulinux/rtt_ros/types/librtt-ros-primitives-typekit-
gnulinux.so

or

$ tree -fi /usr/lib/orocos/xenomai/rtt_ros
/usr/lib/orocos/xenomai/rtt_ros
/usr/lib/orocos/xenomai/rtt_ros/plugins
/usr/lib/orocos/xenomai/rtt_ros/plugins/librtt_ros_service-xenomai.so
/usr/lib/orocos/xenomai/rtt_ros/types
/usr/lib/orocos/xenomai/rtt_ros/types/librtt-ros-primitives-typekit-xenomai.so

  Dear mentors,

 * Package name: soci
   Version : 3.2.3-1
 * URL : http://sourceforge.net/projects/soci/
 * License : Boost 1.0
   Section : libs

  It builds those binary packages:

  Changes since the last upload:

  * Reintroduce package to archive (Closes: #752696)
  * New upstream release
  * Remove patches for issues fixed upstream
  * Update to debhelper v9 compatibility
  * Specify source format as 3.0 (quilt)
  * Update packaging to work with new (cmake-based) build scripts
  * Update to support multiarch
  * Update copyright to dep5 format
  * Add VCS fields in d/control
  * Rename packages to match SONAMEs
  * Update to standards version 3.9.6


 Note: This package previously existed in the archive, but was removed several
years ago due to maintainer request and a mostly-dead upstream.  Upstream
development has resumed, and my coworkers and I use this library often, 
so I would like to reintroduce it to the archive and maintain it.

Hi Bill,

I'm just uploading your package, thanks for your contribution!
(On any subsequent sponsoring requests, feel free to ping me
explicitly) 

As it will have to go through NEW, please remove the package from
mentors manually.

Some homework, though:
-> d/rules: you can delete the clean override
-> d/rules: the test will be failing badly on the buildds, so disable
running the tests and check if we could have dep8-style test instead.

-> symbols files should be added (its doable on c++, at least it is
worth a try)

(ran check-all-the-things)
-> there are several spelling errors, maybe send upstream a patch.
-> there are other messages, like usage of unsafe strcpy, memcpy and
others in the log. Maybe check them an encourage upstream to use "safe"
variants where appropiate as defensive programming approach

Hi Vincent,

Oops, I probably uploaded the wrong version. The get-orig-source target 
uses the date of the last debian/changelog entry to set timestamps, so I 
must've changed that without regenerating the tarball.


Reuploaded, should be fixed now.

dh --buildsystem=none?

2015-06-15 Thread Ole Streicher
Hi,

I have a package that needs no build, but just the installation of the
(script) files. All installation is done via debian/install,
debian/docs, debian/examples.

So, the debian/rules file is simple

---8<--
#!/usr/bin/make -f
%:
dh $@
---8<--

However, for some reason dh tries to run "configure" etc., which
ofcourse fails. How can I explicitely specify a build system that
actually does nothing?

Best regards

Ole

Anyway, I guess you can always use something like:

Do you have a "configure" lying around?  If it's not present, dh will not
try to run it.  Works for me, at least.

As detection of "configure" works by looking at the presence of "configure"
(duh), it feels odd to me to get a false positive.

Bug#787223: RFS: vbam/1.8.0.1498-1

I just tried on #debian-games, I will contacted Millon.

Wx is the new multi-platform frontend and it has many features/options, 
GTK+ was the old frontend with few options.

vbam-common has only icons, so I don't understand the need for this.

vbam-gtk and vbam-sdl are independent.

It's Nintendo, so it's better to have this disclaimer.

src/filters/hq/asm/macros.mac is only used if NASM is enabled, so I 
think there is no problem (I put a comment in the Copyright file). About 
the other files (Array.h and RingBuffer.h), I think upstream is fixing 
it right now.



> W: vbam source: missing-license-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright 
public-domain (paragraph at line 36)


I don't understand this warning, "public-domain" isself explanatory and 
it's not a license at all. I'm trying to understand the text below from 
the copyright-format page, but I'm not fluent in the english language. 
They should add an example to clarify:


"When the License field in a paragraph has the short name public-domain, 
the remaining lines of the field must explain exactly what exemption the 
corresponding files for that paragraph have from default copyright 
restrictions."

I think it's better to report bugs directly on upstream, I already 
reported your issue: https://sourceforge.net/p/vbam/bugs/178/



Thanks for the feedback! I already updated the packaging.
