None of these seem very good ideas to me, I'd suggest: Talk to upstream, Debian and Fedora maintainers for libparted, pyparted and get the forks merged and a new upstream release made so that everything is compatible.

Re: python2.6 vs python-json
So basically, Python upstream hijacked a part of the import namespace. Unless they can be convinced to undo that, python-json is clearly at a disadvantage and future JSON consuming Python code will likely use the Python json module since it comes with Python. Therefore python-json needs to be removed or renamed and the reverse dependencies need to adapt accordingly. The python-json upstream should be contacted to find out future plans for it, to decide if removal or renaming is better. The upstreams for the reverse deps probably will want to stay compatible with Python 2.5, therefore they need to be checking for the new Python API vs the old python-json API vs the possible new name for the python-json API and adapt accordingly.

This sounds like more of a question for the webapps list. My standard answer for webapps is that the package should not assume which URL it is installed at, not assume there will be only one instance of it and not assume where the sysadmin would like to keep uploaded user data. So you probably need dbconfig-common, wwwconfig-common and some debconf prompts to ask the sysadmin if the want to create an instance at install time and then ask appropriate questions about how many instances, which URLs they should be at and where on the filesystem or which database hosts to use. For stuff like automated database upgrades you can use a configuration file in /etc that lists all the instances to upgrade. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I > started this on the Debian wiki at > http://wiki.debian.org/DjangoPackagingDraft Some things I (as a sysadmin user of Debian) would like to suggest for all web apps, django based or not: Use debconf to ask if the sysadmin wants to setup a site and then ask for enough detail to do so. The package should ship a script that can be called either manually by the sysadmin or automatically by the maintainer scripts (using debconf answers) to setup a site or a sub-path of a site. Database (with South etc) and configuration upgrades (with Config::Model or similar) are great, please do them as automatically as possible after confirmation using debconf and or provide scripts for the sysadmin to do them. Data: I like to differentiate between data supporting the package and data that belongs to the sysadmin/site. IMO the former belongs in /var somewhere and the latter at a path chosen by the sysadmin. I don't think this is gotten right by much software, including by all database packages. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Upstream bundling happens in too many different ways to deal with that in any way other than to push back every time an upstream wants to add yet more embedded code copies[1] to Debian. Tell them to do things in a sane way otherwise we can't add their stuff into Debian. Tell them to read the upstream guide (and update it if need be). Tell them to release proper source tarballs that are exactly the same as their VCS. Tell them to not commit generated files to their VCS. Tell them to never include copies of their dependencies in their VCS. Tell them to switch from systems without sane repository and dependency systems (such as Android, MacOS X and Windows) to GNU/Linux distributions like Debian.

On Wed, Dec 4, 2013 at 10:36 AM, Stuart Prescott wrote: > tl;dr: is get-orig-source supposed to be a duplicate of uscan (d/watch) or > apt-get source? Neither. As policy attempts to explain, get-orig-source is for the cases where the Debian orig tarball is not bit-for-bit identical to the upstream tarball. If you have a debian/watch file, get-orig-source is pointless. A get-orig-source target is only useful for documenting (and automating) how to convert upstream sources (in git/hg/tarballs/whatever) into Debian orig tarballs. uscan will never be flexible enough to deal with every upstream so I think the right ways forward are: Add support for more sites to [1]. uscan to grow features for removing files from upstream tarballs, in a declarative way preferably. The default dh get-orig-source to invoke uscan if debian/watch is available. Policy to define get-orig-source more clearly. Re version numbers, I can see use-cases for both getting the current as from debian/changelog and the latest available. So a standard way to pass a version, which could be 'current' or 'latest' or another version would be the right thing to do. Personally I also feel that debian/watch and get-orig-source need to be maintained outside the packaging, probably somewhere like the new PTS (tracker.d.o) once that is up, running and has more contributors. 1. http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/qa/trunk/cgi-bin/fakeupstream.cgi?view=markup -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
