Request to join DPMT and RFS: python-simpy/3.0.7-1 [ITA]
Hello, -python I'd like to contribute to debian and be a part of Python Modules Packaging Team. As my way in, I'd like to adopt python-simpy, maintained by Nicolas Dandrimont in the past. I uploaded a new version of the package with Simpy's new release on mentors.debian.net and Nicolas is going to review it, but other comments and reviews are welcome, since I'm new to all of this. My alioth user is larissa-guest and I'm on OFTC and freenode as larissa. * Package name: python-simpy Version : 3.0.7-1 Upstream Author : Stefan Scherfke * URL : http://simpy.rtfd.org/ * License : MIT Section : python It builds those binary packages: python-simpy - python-based simulation package python-simpy-doc - python-based simulation package, Documentation and examples python3-simpy - python-based simulation package (Python3 version) To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: http://mentors.debian.net/package/python-simpy Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/python-simpy/python-simpy_3.0.7-1.dsc Changes since the last upload: * New upstream release (Closes: #729866) - Simpy 3 API is not compatible with Simpy 2.

Re: Rename package? (Re: Request to join DPMT and RFS: python-simpy/3.0.7-1 [ITA])
Hi, Sorry for the delay as well. On Sat, May 23, 2015 at 07:22:44PM +0200, W.

Anyone that is using the current python-simpy for local work or for any other software would have a completely broken software after upgrade. I was assuming people would have to migrate eventually anyway. But as it was pointed out before, since the python module was renamed to lowercase, we could just let the two packages coexist, so as to not blindside the user. On the other hand, simpy 2 is dead and completely unmaintained. But there is also the issue of mgltools, which is non-free and officially uses simpy 1.8, so I think we have our hands tied here. At this point, making the two packages co-installable seems to me like the better approach.

I was going to put it on svn, even if only to make review easier, but I got busy and I haven't used svn in many years since I started using git. So to me it would be a lot better to just put it straight to git. I doubt this qualifies as a good enough reason, so I'll just put it on svn as soon as I get a little free time. Unless we decide to make simpy 3 a new package, in this case I believe I could put it on git already, correct? Or should this renamed package preserve history of the previous simpy package? -- Larissa Reis Colivre - Cooperativa de Tecnologias Livres www.colivre.coop.br signature.asc Description: Digital signature
RFS: python-simpy3/3.0.7+dfsg-1 [ITP]
After discussion on this list, I'm making the new simpy version a separate package (see thread starting from [1]).
