Bug#966408: RFH: libidn
Package: wnpp Severity: normal I request assistance with maintaining the libidn package. Libidn is an old library for internationalized domain names processing, being phased out in favor of libidn2 that supports the new standards. I am upstream author of both libraries, and have also been packaging them for Debian. I cannot seem to make maintaining the Debian packages of libidn a priority, and this has been the case for several years, so I'd like to ask for help. I have started to move the packaging to Salsa and package the newly released upstream version 1.36, but have failed to complete it due to shared library symbol versioning changes and just the amount of lintian issues coming up. I believe it is a good starting point for anyone taking over, but starting from scratch is fine too. https://salsa.debian.org/debian/libidn Feel free to push any changes to a branch in the repo and upload to experimental and discuss the process forward in this bug report. I suggest responding with a ping to this bug report to indicate you are starting work, in the remote chance that more than one person is looking at this report at the same time, to enable coordination. I'm here to help review changes and comment and can still occasionally make uploads and improve packaging, but more manpower is needed to primarily get 1.36 uploaded into Debian and be more responsive to security bugs and other duties.

Bug#966427: RFP: golang-github-greatroar-blobloom -- blocked Bloom filter package for Go (golang) with no runtime dependencies
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Package name: golang-github-greatroar-blobloom Version : 0.2.1 (for syncthing 1.7.1) URL : https://github.com/greatroar/blobloom License : Apache-2.0 Programming Lang: Go Description : blocked Bloom filter package for Go (golang) with no runtime dependencies Blobloom is a blocked Bloom filter package for Go (golang) with no runtime dependencies. . Blocked Bloom filters are a cache-efficient variant of Bloom filters, the well-known approximate set data structure. To quote Daniel Lemire, they have unbeatable speed. See the directory benchmarks/ to determine exactly how fast Blobloom is compared to other packages. . Blobloom does not provide hash functions for use with the Bloom filter. Instead, it requires client code to supply hash values. That means you get to pick the hash algorithm that is fastest for your data, use a secure hash such as SipHash or reuse hashes that you've already computed. You only need to supply one 64-bit hash value as Blobloom uses the enhanced double hashing algorithm to synthesize any further hash values it needs. When I investigated what dependencies were missing in Debian for syncthing 1.7.1 I found this one. Best, Nicholas
Bug#966445: ITP: r-bioc-experimenthub -- Client to access ExperimentHub resources
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Subject: ITP: r-bioc-experimenthub -- Client to access ExperimentHub resources Package: wnpp Owner: Steffen Moeller Severity: wishlist * Package name: r-bioc-experimenthub Version : 1.14.0+ds Upstream Author : Bioconductor Package Maintainer, * URL : https://bioconductor.org/packages/ExperimentHub/ * License : Artistic-2.0 Programming Lang: GNU R Description : Client to access ExperimentHub resources This package provides a client for the Bioconductor ExperimentHub web resource. ExperimentHub provides a central location where curated data from experiments, publications or training courses can be accessed. Each resource has associated metadata, tags and date of modification. The client creates and manages a local cache of files retrieved enabling quick and reproducible access.

Bug#966452: ITP: r-bioc-biocsingular -- Singular Value Decomposition for Bioconductor Packages
Package: wnpp Owner: Steffen Moeller Severity: wishlist * Package name : r-bioc-biocsingular Version : 1.4.0 Upstream Author : Aaron Lun * URL : https://bioconductor.org/packages/BiocSingular/ * License : GPL-3 Programming Lang: GNU R Description : Singular Value Decomposition for Bioconductor Packages Implements exact and approximate methods for singular value decomposition and principal components analysis, in a framework that allows them to be easily switched within Bioconductor packages or workflows. Where possible, parallelization is achieved using the BiocParallel framework.

Bug#966220: ITP: golang-github-evilsocket-islazy -- Set of opinionated packages, objects, helpers and functions
Hi, I believe I didn't describe my doubt enough, upstream mentions in README.md the message "This library was made with hearts by Simone Margaritelli and it's released under the GPL 3 license" and in LICENSE.md I find "GPL version 3 or later". The upstream did not attach the license notices to the program at the beginning of each source file. So I wonder, when he mentions the GPL-3 in REAME.md, is it strictly? or would he allow any later version? As I was in doubt, I found it appropriate to ask if he could clarify whether the correct license is GPL-3 or GPL-3+ (any later version) by changing the README.md or LICENSE.md file. > https://github.com/evilsocket/islazy/issues/11 Regards, -- Francisco Vilmar Cardoso Ruviaro 4096R: 1B8C F656 EF3B 8447 2F48 F0E7 82FB F706 0B2F 7D00
