Potential issue when using dgit for DPMT modules
Hello, This is just a heads-up for a potential issue that you may encounter when you attempt to use dgit for a DPMT module (bug 850005). If an attempt to do "dgit --dpm build-source" fails with something like: , | $ dgit --dpm --clean=git build-source | Format `3.0 (quilt)', need to check/update patch stack | examining quilt state (multiple patches, dpm mode) | dgit: split brain (separate dgit view) may be needed (--quilt=dpm). | dgit: base trees orig=c8ab943f37df17d83f09 o+d/p=9e2aab849fc3a861ab5a | dgit: quilt differences: src: ## orig ## gitignores: == orig == | dgit: quilt differences: HEAD ## o+d/p HEAD == o+d/p | dgit: --quilt=dpm specified, implying patches-applied git tree | dgit: but git tree differs from result of applying debian/patches to upstream ` Then the problem might be that some files that are present in the upstream branch are not present in the master branch, but the deletion has not been recorded in the patched branch. In the case of python-llfuse, the missing files were: $ git diff --stat 9e2aab849fc3a861ab5a..HEAD^ | grep -v " debian" src/llfuse.egg-info/PKG-INFO| 80 - src/llfuse.egg-info/SOURCES.txt | 108 src/llfuse.egg-info/dependency_links.txt| 1 - src/llfuse.egg-info/requires.txt| 1 - src/llfuse.egg-info/top_level.txt | 1 - src/llfuse.egg-info/zip-safe| 1 - 24 files changed, 93 insertions(+), 192 deletions(-) In this case, the files were removed in commit 2d78b, which is the "merge patched into master" commit generated by git-dpm. In general, however, git-dpm seems to handle removals in the patched branch just fine, so I suspect that this problem is either an artifact of the import from svn-buildpackage, or I may have manually amended the merge commit and now forgot about it. In the former case, other packages that were batch converted from SVN may have a similar problem. Best, -Nikolaus -- GPG encrypted emails preferred.

Bug#850195: ITP: extinction -- Fast interstellar dust extinction laws
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name: Extinction Version : 0.3.0 Upstream Author : Kyle Barbary * URL : https://github.com/kbarbary/extinction * License : MIT Programming Lang: Python/Cython Description : Fast interstellar dust extinction laws Extinction provides a library with Cython-optimised implementations of empirical dust extinction laws found in the astronomical literature. This library is a dependency of the sncosmo software. Hence packaging Extinction is a prerequisite of packaging sncosmo. It will be maintained within the Debian Astronomy Working Group. A git repository will be created on alioth [1]. Best regards, Florian [1] https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-astro/packages/extinction.git
Re: Request to join DPMT
Hi Piotr, I've also packaged the python library colorclass which is one of flexget's dependencies. For now I've put it up here if you'd like to also check that out: https://github.com/arcresu/debian-colorclass My plan for the packages I intend to work on initially is here: https://bugs.debian.org/724718#93 Cheers, Carl
