RFS: pyrit

2010-05-20 Thread Christian Kastner
Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "pyrit".

* Package name: pyrit
  Version : 0.3.0-1
  Upstream Author : Lukas Lueg 
* URL : http://code.google.com/p/pyrit/
* License : GPLv3 + OpenSSL linking exception
  Section : net

It builds these binary packages:
pyrit  - A GPGPU-driven WPA/WPA2-PSK key cracker

The package appears to be lintian clean.

The upload would fix these bugs: 570918


Pyrit is an excellent example of a GPGPU-driven application. It consists
of a main program and optional extensions for various GPGPU
technologies, such as NVIDIA CUDA and OpenCL.

This package provides the main program. It is fully functional version
of Pyrit, but lacks support for non-free technologies such as CUDA.
These technologies will be supported via separately distributed python
extensions (see ITP #582315) in contrib.

Upstream is very responsive.


The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/pyrit
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
main contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/pyrit/pyrit_0.3.0-1.dsc

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.


Regards,
Christian

Do we have OpenCL support in Debian main?

Not yet, but it's being worked on. I've been in contact with the NVIDIA
Team, they expect the NVIDIA toolkit (with CUDA and OpenCL support) to
be available RSN, see #581184.

I don't anticipate an OpenCL extension for pyrit, though. That would
require binary packages for each specific vendor implementation (eg
pyrit-opencl-nvidia). You might as well just use pyrit-cuda.

Unfortunately that is non-free. Unless pyrit works with nouveau or any
of the drivers in Debian main, I think pyrit should go to contrib.

Err, isn't the whole point of OpenCL that it is cross-vendor???
