RFS: courier-pythonfilter
Hi I am looking for a sponsor for my package "courier-pythonfilter" (ITP: 504080) Package name: courier-pythonfilter (version 1.4-1) Upstream Author : Gordon Messmer URL: http://phantom.dragonsdawn.net/~gordon/courier-pythonfilter/ License: GPLv3 Section: mail Description: filter collection for the Courier MTA pythonfilter is a collection of useful filters for the Courier MTA, and a framework for developing new filters in Python. . pythonfilter can be used to filter spam and viruses, as well as implement other local mail policies. I've done Debian package maintenance in the past (although I've been inactive for the past year or so) so the quality of the package should be good. The package is lintian clean[0] and it builds without problems in a clean pbuilder environment. The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/courier-pythonfilter - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free - dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/courier-pythonfilter/courier-pythonfilter_1.4-1.dsc Best regards, Frederik Dannemare [0] It's easy to claim so with an overrides file, I suppose ;) but I felt I had to do it (please let me know if you think otherwise). E.g.: courier-pythonfilter: script-not-executable ./usr/share/python-support/courier-pythonfilter/courier/quarantine.py courier-pythonfilter: script-not-executable ./usr/share/python-support/courier-pythonfilter/pythonfilter/greylist.py These .py files are not to be executed directly in any way, other than from within the pythonfilter apps itself. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Stephan, thank you for that suggestion. Since there are quite
a few .py files, I decided to write a small bash script[0] to help me
quickly generate dpatches for all of them.
As such I've now done a new upload which utilizes dpatch for the
purpose of removing the shebangs where it is appropriate to do so.
I've also included a watch file, btw.
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/courier-pythonfilter/
I'm really crossing my fingers that a sponsor will find time
to do an upload to the official Debian archives of this package
as there is nothing similar currently in the Debian archives.
pythonfilter is incredible useful for anybody running the Courier MTA
as it provides a whole bunch of filters, ready to use. This includes
a greylisting filter, a spamassassin filter, a clamav filter, an
attachments filter, a noduplicates filter (if courier receives
a message with multiple aliases that expand to the same address,
the message may be delivered to that address multiple times.
This module checks for, and removes the duplicates), and many
others.
At the same time, pythonfilter offers a framework for easy development
of new filters.
B/R,
Frederik Dannemare

I tend to agree, but I dislike the idea of having a package with a different name than that of the upstream name. I've told the upstream author that it might not be possible to have hearts enter Debian, unless the package gets another less generic name. I suggested khearts to him and he gave me a green light, so I can only hope to will consider changing the upstream name as well. So I think I will rebuild the package under the khearts name (and mention the name diversion in README.debian and in the package description). - -- Frederik Dannemare | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://dannemare.net GnuPG key: search for 'dannemare' on http://pgpkeys.mit.edu Key fingerprint: BB7B 078A 0DBF 7663 180A F84A 2D25 FAD5 9C4E B5A8 -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAuO18LSX61ZxOtagRAr2YAJ0SCSns75FDt36ze4T7QSW+FGdASQCghoHm Cs62ckQgB5o+lZVd+R5hTA8= =LWhO -END PGP SIGNATURE-

RFS: motion - please upload new revision with debconf fix
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I was hoping that my sponsor of motion would have the time this week to do a new upload which has a couple of very small fixes, but unfortunately I haven't heard from him yet, so I'm really, really hoping for a kind DD to notice this mail and sponsor the upload. Here's the new changelog entry: * Only prompt user with debconf info, if an earlier version of motion has already been installed (Closes: #263717). * Include French po-debconf translation by Olivier Trichet <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (Closes: #264549). * Update debian/watch file. Especially the debconf thing is worth an upload, I think. It's annoying to get prompted for something that isn't relevant. Package available at: <http://sentinel.dk/debian/motion/> Package is lintian clean and builds in a pbuilder chroot environment. In general it is in very good shape, I think, so it should not take long to review it. PACKAGE INFO: === Package name: motion Version: 3.1.14 Upstream source: http://motion.sourceforge.net/ Upstream author: Kenneth Lavrsen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> License: GPLv2 Description: V4L capture program supporting motion detection Motion is a program that monitors the video signal from one or more cameras and is able to detect if a significant part of the picture has changed. Or in other words, it can detect motion. . Motion is a command line based tool. It has no graphical user interface. Everything is setup either via the command line or via configuration files. . The output from motion can be: - jpg files - ppm format files - mpeg video sequences . Also, motion has its own minimalistic web server. Thus, you can access the webcam output from motion via a browser. ======= Best regards, - -- Frederik Dannemare | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=Frederik+Dannemare http://frederik.dannemare.net | http://www.linuxworlddomination.dk Key fingerprint: BB7B 078A 0DBF 7663 180A F84A 2D25 FAD5 9C4E B5A8 -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFBHP2NLSX61ZxOtagRAvYmAJ9HGFjNH6zBTiCB93b8sNskppMWBQCfeIf3 gYIBn0hw2Ua8JsEfElFYCjY= =jeyW -END PGP SIGNATURE-

When I adopted the package, I chose to update from 3.0.6 to 3.1.14, and not 3.1.15/3.1.16, because I personally feel 3.1.14 is the most stable of them. .15 had a lot of problems, and although .16 fixed much of this, I still feel 3.1.14 is the better choice for the sarge release. Many thanks for the upload, Wesley. I really appreciate it. And thank you, Adam, for once again offering to help me with an upload. - -- Frederik Dannemare | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=Frederik+Dannemare http://frederik.dannemare.net | http://www.linuxworlddomination.dk Key fingerprint: BB7B 078A 0DBF 7663 180A F84A 2D25 FAD5 9C4E B5A8 -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFBHbzALSX61ZxOtagRAuhTAJ90nDBfW8uwAqyVUQ+0M5eCf1aDewCfRB3e WiImPLIuSdC+j7nUaSABtgM= =Lm9r -END PGP SIGNATURE-

I have been using motion and 2.6 without the v4l loopback device. I don't know much about it, but I think it was initially developed for debugging motion in real-time or something like that.
