sysinfo upstream tarball problems
Hello, I am packaging sysinfo (#333680) and I have some problems with the upstream tarball. Upstream contains (limited list): config.log config.status several .Po files This is all cleaned up in the upstream distclean (which is called from debian/rules clean), but Lintian complains about it anyway: W: sysinfo source: configure-generated-file-in-source config.log How can I resolve this without an override? Furthermore I had to rerun automake because the original Makefile installed extra doc files under /usr/doc/sysinfo. Is this the correct solution or should I remove the files after running upstream make? I know most of this should be handled upstream, but for now I will have to provide a solution as a patch. So I would really appreciate some advice. The package and source files are available here: http://dev.lashout.net/debian/sysinfo* Thanks a lot in advance, Adriaan Peeters -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Upstream Makefile.am contains:
sysinfodocdir = ${prefix}/doc/sysinfo
sysinfodoc_DATA = \
README\
COPYING\
AUTHORS\
ChangeLog\
INSTALL\
NEWS
EXTRA_DIST = \
$(sysinfodoc_DATA)\
How should I advise upstream to fix this (and remove the files
from /usr/doc/sysinfo)?

how to handle non-responsive maintainers?
Hello, For my ITP (#333680) I need a new version of libglademm [1,2]. Unfortunately the current maintainer seems not very responsive, with several of his bugs open for years [3]. We are all volunteers and I do understand that he can be occupied, but as I am no DD, I cannot check whether is on vacation or if there is more information on him being MIA. What is the right course of action? Several of his bugs are quite trivial to fix, so maybe some help could speed things up considerably. Thanks in advance, Adriaan Peeters [1] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=333730 [2] I do know that this package is affected by some of the ongoing transitions.

default man page
Hello, I am packaging sysinfo [1,2]: a simple Gtk program which can display some computer/system information. Upstream does not provide a man page, but the program has no useful command line parameters, except the default gtk options. Does there exist a default man page for these cases, should I create an almost empty man page or can I just leave it out?

Why is package gnome-panel not in testing yet?
Hello, This question has probably been asked several times before, but I am trying to figure out why gnome-panel does not enter testing. Two packages I maintain are waiting for it for them to move to testing as well. As far as I can tell from [1], there is a circular dependency between gnome-panel and meta-gnome2, and there are no other dependencies. So is there anything I can do to let them go in together or should I just wait for ftp masters to handle this?

Hi all, I am looking for comments (and maybe a sponsor) for my package libjmathtex-java. I already maintain several packages, but this is my first attempt at packaging a java lib, so please let me know any suggestions you may have. * Package name: libjmathtex-java Version : 0.7pre-1 Upstream Authors: Kris Coolsaet, Nico Van Cleemput * URL : http://jmathtex.sourceforge.net/ * License : GPL Section : libs It builds these binary packages: libjmathtex-java - TeX and MathML library for Java libjmathtex-java-gcj - TeX and MathML library for Java (native code) The JMathTeX library provides a set of Java classes for displaying (complex) mathematical formulas as part of a Java application. Some use cases are: * Displaying text with embedded formulas (in an editor pane, a JavaHelp page, ...) * Make a combo box which provides the user with a choice between various formulas. * Have a slider with ticks that display their values not as decimal numbers, but as exact values, e.g., fractions, square roots or any combination of these. * Display the formula together with the graph of a function. The library uses the typesetting algorithms of the well-known TeX and LaTeX systems and therefore displays formulas in a very professional looking way. Formulas are Java-objects that can be built from scratch (by combining smaller formulas in several ways) and from LaTeX strings. There is also limited support for MathML. dget http://dev.lashout.net/debian/libjmathtex-java_0.7pre-1.dsc Thanks in advance, -- Adriaan Peeters signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
