Bug#537776: mosh scheme debian package
Do you know if their version of libgc and libatomic-ops actually differ from the upstream or Debian versions in some significant way? Because they might have just slapped the library sources into their repository for convenience. If that is the case then this wouldn't be a show stopper, since the Debian package could just rip them back out and use the Debian versions. --Barak. -- Barak A.

Bug#537776: mosh scheme debian package
> http://git.debian.org/?p=collab-maint/mosh.git;a=summary That's funny, I'd made my own git svn clone, didn't think to scan for someone else's. Anyway I had a bit more of a look at mosh itself, and my take is that they need some time to stabilize their code base, so it might be a good idea to let it sit for a while and check again. Perhaps some rough edges will have been filed off... --Barak. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Bug#537776: mosh in debian: update
Maybe upstream should be brought into the loop here? It is completely reasonable to want to use system versions of libraries instead of the versions included in the mosh source ball. They probably know what tweaks they needed to make to the libraries, and where the library versions matter. Which looks like the problem here...? --Barak. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
Bug#543678: Woops!
Woops! I didn't see your ITP: minidjvu until I'd packaged minidjvu myself. Was about to dupload it, and push my repo into debian git/collab-maint, when I noticed your ITP. So instead I've pushed my debianized repo to git://github.com/barak/minidjvu.git It is lintian clean etc, looks good to go. At this point I see a couple options. I can: (a) throw away my debianized version and leave everything to you (b) give you what I've done (see above) but leave everything to you (c) dupload my version and be sole maintainer (i.e., yours is discarded) (d) dupload my version but assume you'll take over as maintainer (e) dupload my version with you listed as co-maintainer I'm willing to do any of the above, or something else; your decision.

Bug#987620: Bug
>> I'd be happy to sponsor it. > I would very much appreciate that Okay then! (CCing the WPNN bug, for posterity, and so others can see this is taken.) Took a quick look, and did a major updating of the debian/ packaging scripts. There were issues with passing flags through to the actual compiler, so I did some Rube Goldberg tricks to bypass the top-level Makefile and let debhelper do its tricks with qmake. Ultimately, the "right thing" would be to mess about with the "upstream" build scripts to make them more standard, like have the qmake stuff do the installation, have only one qmake invocation, yada yada. Anyway, I forked your github repo and pushed my changes there. Please check if it works with my scripts. If you're happy with everything, I can just upload it. Or if you'd rather, I can be more hands-off and sponsor someone else's uploads (e.g., yours) and let you do all the packaging stuff w/ my feedback etc. However as a PI myself, I know what I'd choose! Minor stuff: Not sure if it belongs in "science" because that's generally for things like data analysis software, numeric methods, machine learning libraries, etc. But what the heck. That gives it an automatic team maintenance, which is nice. And it can always be shifted. There are some compiler warnings, like using an old sort function instead of the new approved one. Someone should probably take a look at them sometime. I'm renamed the icon to just eln, since the longer one seems a bit silly: what if (no offense) you're hit by a bus? Cheers, --Barak.

Bug#927076: xournalpp packaging in Debian: how can we help?
Yeah, I think right now it's in good shape. I'm waiting for an official upstream release, at which point I'll upload. Since it's not in Debian right now, there's no reason to hold off until after the Debian release. (If there were I'd upload to Debian/experimental.)

Bug#927076: xournalpp packaging in Debian: how can we help?
There is a pristine-tar branch on both salsa and my GitHub fork repo barak/...
Bug#927076: xournalpp packaging in Debian: how can we help?
Sure, can change it to 1.0.20-hotfix-1 or can edit debian/watch to skip the -hotfix tag and change it to 1.0.20-1. Or use 1.0.20-1 and let uscan whine about 1.0.20-hotfix. Given the changes all around, I don't think we want to actually push into Debian until 1.1.0 is released anyway. So whether the changes are representable or enormous or whatever doesn't really matter. What do you think: -hotfix or not -hotfix? Cheers, --Barak.
Bug#927076: xournalpp packaging in Debian
Done. I reverted to 1.0.20 but left debian/watch untouched, so uscan alerts about 1.0.20-hotfix being available. If that's a problem I can edit the watch file, just let me know; I kind of enjoy tweaking them, as it happens. Guess now we wait for the actual 1.1.0 release.
Bug#927076: xournalpp packaging in Debian
The reason I'm tracking is because I actually use the generated packages. But I'm totally unfamiliar with the salsa continuous integration stuff. Wouldn't mind learning though. Happy to change workflow, maybe do development on a different branch? Or, could make snapshot upstream releases 1.0.20+git.DATE.N.ID, or 1.1.0~git.DATE.N.ID, which are based on particular upstream commit IDs and pushed into pristine-tar.

Okay, I used a git snapshot for the version and tarball, and all seems well.
Bug#1008207: Nice Script but Small
That's a useful little shell script. But small. Maybe it would make sense to get it included in /usr/share/doc/openssh-client/examples/? Or make a package ssh-misc-utils that contains a bunch of scripts for doing useful little tasks? Basically, to agglomerate it with some other related things, so as to avoid fragmentation.

Bug#580763: Debian Package of Focuswriter
The "standard" way for Debian packages maintained in git to handle things is to have two main branches: "upstream" for the upstream development, and "main" for the debian stuff. The diff between the two branches should, normally, all be in the debian/ subdir. That's how I was handling it, especially since your upstream is a git repo on github anyway. It is certainly possible for the upstream branch to have a debian/ subdir. Not clear it's worth the hassle in this case though. (You'd certainly be welcome to patch both branches!)

Bug#594660: quantumminigolf: changing back from ITP to RFP
Sure, that's fine. The thing with quantumminigolf is that the upstream code could use some love. First, the GUI is a bit odd, won't listen to a kill click, hogs CPU, doesn't scale, etc. And second, the numeric kernel could use some work to decrease the visible-to-the-eye numeric artifacts.

Thanks for the retitle etc. When I got my teeth into it three were some subsidiary unpackaged tools used in the chez build and so I went down a rabbit hole of packaging them and never emerged. That was a while ago so upstream may have simplified the situation in the meantime. --Barak.
Bug#688537: Upstream Not Dead Yet
Just a cross-pointer to anyone interested in perhaps adopting this package: upstream is not actually dead. See https://bugs.debian.org/878231
Bug#812757: adopt
I can take it. (Would certainly welcome co-maintainer who'd lavish more love on it, like getting the resources exposed to a modern resource editor.) Prelim updated packaging in: git://anonscm.debian.org/collab-maint/swisswatch.git Comments? (If none will wait a few days & dput.)

Okay, I'll adopt it. WIll dput shortly. If anyone else wants it, or wants to co-maintain, that would be great. I will make a collab-maint packaging repo, and mirror it on github to lower the barrier to contribution as much as possible. --Barak. -- Barak A. Pearlmutter http://barak.pearlmutter.net

The could be integrated. - when there is more than one tunnel available, it is not always properly set in aiccu.conf, requiring manual editing. --Barak. -- Barak A.

Bug#960788: Intel SOF audio firmware packaging
My Dell Inspiron 7591 2n1 required the SOF audio firmware, so I did a quick packaging for my own purposes, to be sure I had the latest. See https://github.com/barak/sof-bin branch: debian Works for me, and of course my packaging scripts are free for use in whole or in part etc (I hereby place them in the public domain.) Cheers, --Barak.
Bug#960788: Intel SOF audio firmware packaging
No need for anything so complex. This should work: $ fakeroot debian/rules binary Or sudo if you don't have fakeroot.
Bug#960788: Intel SOF audio firmware packaging
Oops! Thanks, fixed. (I switched binary package names to match the packaging on salsa in debian/control but neglected to make the consonant change in debian/rules. I suppose debian/rules should grovel it out of debian/control, according to the DRY principle. May do that, but pushed trivial fix for now.)
Bug#960788: Intel SOF audio firmware packaging
Not sure if this will work for you, but it does for me. Basically, the device initializes into a muted state, so you need to unmute it pretty forcibly. Here are my notes showing various ways to accomplish this. This is with my device numbering, yours might be different. You can just run "alsamixer" with no arguments to see all the alsa audio devices, and see if one is muted, and if so unmute it, and if not mute/unmute it just to be sure. --- Unmute device: $ alsamixer -c 0 - switch to "Master" device - press "m" to unmute it so that you see "00" instead of "MM" under - up arrow key to increase the volume to 100% Store setting across boot: $ sudo alsactl store Alt to unmute device: $ amixer -Dhw:0 cset name='Master Playback Switch' on $ amixer -Dhw:0 cset name='Master Playback Volume' 100%
Bug#960788: Intel SOF audio firmware packaging
Pavucontrol is talking to pulseaudio, it doesn't talk to the alsa device directly. But the problem is at the alsa level, or at the interface where pulseaudio talks to alsa. Someone should probably report it to the pulseaudio folks.
Bug#968237: auctex-12
Dear Itaï, Thanks for trying to contribute to Debian. > I am not a Debian developper, but am able to package (in fact I have packaged > auctex v12 for personal use). If you have auctex-12 packaged, I would very much encourage you to share your work, even if the debian maintainer doesn't seem very active. The easiest way is probably to just fork https://salsa.debian.org//salve/auctex.git into your own salsa account and push your changes there. This makes a bunch of things easier. (I note that right now upstream is at 12.2, and the current version not only has functionality issues but also fails to build. So the package could use a little love. Maybe the maintainer would welcome a co-maintainer?) Cheers, --Barak.
Bug#927076: any progress?
Right, I made that salsa repo, it doesn't mean anything except having a place to hang a hat. The situation now is that the *only* sticking point is debian/copyright, which is a mess. Note all the "god knows" entries. And the providence of a bunch of the .svg files is unclear, with internal copyright strings embedded in them giving various flavours of CC. Some of which might need to be replaced if they're the wrong flavours; fortunately there are collections of appropriate open source .svg icons that could be used instead if it comes to that. If someone were to help with getting the copyright info worked out, I can slot it straight into Debian. But there were so many little moving parts I just couldn't clear an entire day to try and figure it all out. Someone more familiar with the code base and its history would probably have a much easier time of it. --Barak. PS I'm using xournalpp in teaching this semester. Got a new Dell Inspiron 15 7591 2in1 with a pressure sensitive pen enabled screen, and it's great for remote teaching.
Bug#845980: Poor Little Orphan Package
Given the time span, I think Kyle Spiers' generous offer has probably lapsed. (If not let me know and you can have it!) So in the interests of efficiency, I'll just adopt it. Did a quick packaging of the latest upstream, pushed to salsa, and will upload w/ self as maintainer in a moment. If someone else wants it, please feel free to co-maintain, or do 0-NMU uploads without even asking, or whatever. --Barak Pearlmutter.

Bug#758238: cool-retro-term
Great you're sponsoring cool-retro-term. Just FYI, there's a slightly tweaked packaging branch I put together, in https://github.com/barak/cool-retro-term/ branch "debian". The main differences are it generates the man page using help2man at build time, and provides x-terminal-emulator. See also https://github.com/Swordfish90/cool-retro-term/issues/332 Never quite crossed the energy barrier to dput it though; mainly used it because I like to use the program when teaching/lecturing especially about FORTRAN and such.
