Bug#1019537: RFP: backlightctl -- Lightweight monitor backlight control utility

2022-09-11 Thread Joost van Baal-Ilić
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name: backlightctl
  Upstream Author : P "hellerbarde" Stark
* URL : https://github.com/hellerbarde/backlightctl
* License : MIT/X
  Programming Lang: C
  Description : Lightweight monitor backlight control utility

 Really lightweight (<100 SLOC) monitor backlight control utility written in C
 that directly writes to the /sys/ filesystem.  The config file is read from
 /etc/backlightctl.conf. It must contain exactly 2 lines. The first one points
 to the file controlling the brightness. The second line points to the file
 containing the maximal brightness.

Upstream ships no formal release yet; it's been sitting in a github git repo
since 2012.  There's a cmake buildsystem supplied.  No upstream manpage yet.

I like it since it's pretty small and does _just_ what's needed; nothing more.

Bye,

But maybe it's usefulness is debatable since we're shipping the more actively
maintained brightnessctl since at least buster/oldstable...

I see you've published just one branch ("master") and did not copy upstream

2024-02-04 Thread Joost van Baal-Ilić
Package: wnpp
Control: affects -1 + src:ruby-ami
Severity: normal

Hi,

I intend to orphan the ruby-ami package.

A not yet packaged new upstream is available, since 2016.  Upstream has not
commited any code after 2016.

ruby-ami has no reverse-depends in our archives, no package build-depends upon
ruby-ami.

The package description is:
 RubyAMI is an Asterisk Management Interface client library in Ruby built on
 Celluloid IO and based on EventMachine providing a connection to the Asterisk
 Manager Interface. RubyAMI is a low level library; it does not provide any
 features beyond connection management and protocol parsing. Actions are sent
 over the wire, and responses are returned. Events are passed to a callback you
 define. It's up to you to match these up into something useful. In this regard,
 RubyAMI is very similar to Blather for XMPP or Punchblock, the Ruby 3PCC
 library.

Or maybe zoem (debian-science), mcl (debian-med) and cimfomfa could all be
maintained by https://salsa.debian.org/math-team .  Since these packages will
now share dependencies, maybe that would work best.  Or would it be better to
move zoem from debian-science to debian-med?  Andreas Tille, Shayan Doust: any
opinions?

 It is not (yet?) as feature-rich as Test::Cmd, however the

 Test::Builder framework, which plays nice with Test::More.

I am looking for a webserver which has no support for PHP, doesn't need a

small webservers like that; it seems they're getting extinct.  I plan to work
on getting DJB's publicfile shipped with Debian, in some form.

I plan to use git on alioth's collab-maint for packaging.  I'm not quite sure

getting the licensing clear.

Help welcome :)

Excellent!  Did you manage to publish some work, e.g. in some git repo

FWIW, I found out v2.0.14 was released upstream on 2013-10-26.  Furthermore,
Bug #735120 (non-free w3c icons) is fixed upstream in

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.  Indeed, something like that could work.
Ideally a .deb is built containing the php-oci8 binary.

I've got some experience with -installer packages like this ( e.g.
https://packages.debian.org/sid/publicfile-installer ).

Now let's just find some time...

Bug#843328: O: dimbl - Distributed Memory Based Learner for Natural Language Processing

2016-11-05 Thread Joost van Baal-Ilić
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

Hi,

I am no longer interested in maintaining dimbl.  Upstream (Maarten van Gompel)
feels shipping dimbl with Debian is of very limited use: people interested in
dimbl likely are better served always using the very latest version of it.

I'll request for removal of dimbl from unstable and testing, soonish.

Unless someone else steps up RSN, that is.  Be aware there is serious/RC/FTBFS
Bug #833905 open (which is relatively easy to fix).)

(From the description: The Dimbl Distributed Memory Based Learner is a wrapper
around the k-nearest neighbor classifier in TiMBL, offering parallel
classification on multi-CPU machines. Dimbl splits the original training set,
builds separate TiMBL classifiers per training subset, and merges their
nearest-neighbor sets per classified instance.  If you do scientific research
in Natural Language Processing using the Memory-Based Learning technique, Dimbl
will likely be of use to you.)

Bug#824934: ITP: ruby-ami -- Ruby client library for the Asterisk Management Interface

Package: wnpp

* Package name: ruby-ami
* URL : https://github.com/adhearsion/ruby_ami
  Upstream Author : Ben Langfeld, Jay Phillips

  Description : A Ruby client library for the Asterisk Management Interface

RubyAMI is an Asterisk Management Interface client library in Ruby built on
Celluloid IO and based on EventMachine providing a connection to the Asterisk
Manager Interface. RubyAMI is a low level library; it does not provide any
features beyond connection management and protocol parsing. Actions are sent
over the wire, and responses are returned. Events are passed to a callback you
define. It's up to you to match these up into something useful. In this regard,
RubyAMI is very similar to Blather for XMPP or Punchblock, the Ruby 3PCC
library.

* License : GPL-2
  Description : Perl module for repeating tickets in RT (Request Tracker) 
based on schedule

 The RepeatTicket extension for the Request Tracker trouble-ticket tracking
 system allows you to set up recurring tickets so new
 tickets are automatically created based on a schedule. The new tickets are
 populated with the subject and initial content of the original ticket in the
 recurrence.
 .
 After you activate the plugin by adding it to your RT_SiteConfig.pm file, all
 tickets will have a Recurrence tab on the create and edit pages. To set up a
 repeating ticket, click the checkbox to "Enable Recurrence" and fill out the
 schedule for the new tickets.
 .
 New tickets are created when you initially save the recurrence, if new
 tickets are needed, and when your daily cron job runs the rt-repeat-ticket
 script.

I've chosen to name this package "librt-extension-repeatticket-perl", following
naming convention of CPAN packages.  I am aware of the rt4-extension-* packages
(like e.g. rt4-extension-calendar), but feel the name
librt-extension-repeatticket-perl is more suitable to fit in pkg-perl policy.
People looking for this package will find it anyway.

I'll work on the packaging using pkg-perl's git at Alioth

Yes, see
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/licenses/instant-client-lic-152016.html for
license conditions on e.g. oracle-instantclient12.1-basic which ships
/usr/lib/oracle/12.1/client64/lib/libclntsh.so.12.1 .  php-oci8 depends upon
Oracle's Instant Client libraries.

It has conditions like "you do not charge your end users for use of the
Programs" and "prohibit the reverse engineering (unless required by law for
interoperability), disassembly or decompilation of the Programs".  So clearly
non-free.

Turns out my $employer does not need webdriver-manager, but only needs
chromium-driver which is already being shipped by us.

For anybody else interested in webdriver-manager in Debian, here's some more
stuff I've learned about it (lots of thanks to Paul "pabs" Wise e.a.):

Webdriver Manager is an installer package: it downloads, installs, and updates
software from google, github/mozilla, microsoft and opera:

 % cd webdriver_manager && grep ' url=' * | grep http
 chrome.py: url="https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com";,
 firefox.py: 
url="https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases/download";,
 microsoft.py: 
url="http://selenium-release.storage.googleapis.com";,
 microsoft.py: url="https://msedgedriver.azureedge.net";,
 opera.py: 
url="https://github.com/operasoftware/operachromiumdriver/";

.

Currently we have chromium-driver, build from chromium.

Ubuntu builds firefox-geckodriver from firefox, see e.g.
https://packages.ubuntu.com/hirsute/firefox-geckodriver .  And our bugs #874207
and #907913 ask for firefox to enable the geckodriver build.

We'll likely never have a MS Edge driver, nor the Opera Chromium driver.

(We do have webkit2gtk-driver, build from webkit2gtk.
And we do have wpewebkit-driver, build from wpewebkit.)

So, the only reason to ship webdriver-manager with Debian would be to easily
have an up to date MS Edge driver and Opera Chromium driver.  And to work
around the still open bug about lacking firefox-geckodriver.

I've published a _very_ bare bones .deb on
https://non-gnu.uvt.nl/debian/buster/webdriver-manager/webdriver-manager_3.3.0-1~buster1.dsc
, binary available via

 deb http://non-gnu.uvt.nl/debian buster webdriver-manager

.  This might help anybody else interested in packaging webdriver-manager
for Debian.

Not really, actually.

The maintainer of the eduvpn suite decided to drop the baconqrcode dependency,
mainly because of https://github.com/Bacon/BaconQrCode/issues/70 .  Some old
packaging effort for BaconQrCode 1.0.3 is still available from

Thanks for this reminder.  For both r-cran-nfactors and r-cran-semplot there
already _is_ work in our g...@salsa.debian.org:r-pkg-team : at
r-cran-nfactors.git and r-cran-semplot.git .  So no need for
prepare_missing_cran_package for those.

I cannot commit to maintaining these packages appear in a stable Debian
release: I do all my R packaging work during $dayjob; I'm mainly interested in
keeping the packages working on Debian stable, and somewhat in sync with
upsteam.  So that's technically what would end up in debian backports.  The
reason I stick the work in git @ salsa is I feel there's a chance others might
benefit from it too.  That's the reason I've recently not been very active in
actually uploading it to NEW.

There some packages of me in our git now for which I've not yet posted ITP's.
I believe this interferes badly with some of your workflows.  Would it help you
if I actually _would_ post ITP's?  I'd be glad to.

Also, debian/copyright of most of my recent packages is still lacking.  I'll
try to find time to work on that (note to self: have another look at cme).

What do you think?

Some preliminary work is still available from
https://github.com/eduvpn/eduvpn-debian/tree/master/Twig-extensions .  Plan is
still to move this to salsa, in a properly setup git repo (e.g. gbp-style, or
whatever is most appropriate).

Feel free to pick up the work, btw.  I'd be happy to comaintain.

  Description : YubiKey OTP Validator library

 A very simple, secure YubiKey OTP Validator with pluggable HTTP client.

vpn-server-api ( https://github.com/eduvpn/vpn-server-api ) depends upon
php-yubitwee.  (At one point in time vpn-server-api will migrate from using
php-yubitwee to U2F.  It is not yet known _when_ that will happen.)  The
vpn-server-api and php-yubitwee packages are part of the Let's Connect! VPN
software suite, being developed by SURFnet, the Dutch National Research and
Education Network.  Packaging php-yubitwee in Debian is the first step towards
integrating the Let's Connect! stack in Debian.  Currently, the suite consists
of 15 source packages, see https://github.com/eduvpn/eduvpn-debian .

Refer to https://letsconnect-vpn.org and https://eduvpn.org/ for more

Bug#999837: ITP: merecat -- simple web server with only basic features

Severity: wishlist

* Package name: merecat

* License : BSD 2-clause
  Programming Lang: C
  Description : simple web server with only basic features

 Merecat is a simple web server based on Jef Poskanzer's thttpd.
 It supports all basic features required for most use-cases. The
 most prominent features are probably HTTPS, using OpenSSL, PHP,
 multiple servers with HTTP redirect support, redirect from HTTP
 to HTTPS, virtual hosts, and the URL-traffic-based throttling.
 .
 Its small footprint makes it is suitable for small and embedded
 systems.

I plan to migrate my personal web servers to merecat, and maintain
the software using git at https://salsa.debian.org/debian .  Upstream
also publishes a debian/ directory btw, at their git repo
at https://github.com/troglobit/merecat ; and I published a first
shot at packaging at http://mdcc.cx/tmp/merecat/ .

I've found 5 + 2 + 1 of them:

 averell : written in erlang
 droopy  : with upload functionality
 filetea : filesharing functionality
 gatling : has more features
 thin: written in Ruby

Maybe webfs and civetweb are comparable to merecat, I'll look closer.

And then there's publicfile-installer which I plan to Orphan soonish.

I believe it boils down to: merecat is written in the widely spoken C
language, is based upon the widely tested thttpd code, and has a very minimal
feature set (and therefore possibly fewer bugs).  Anyway, I'll try to improve
the merecat description with these and more findings, thanks for your
interest!

I'll very likely maintain cimfomfa at https://salsa.debian.org/science-team .

cimfomfa 21-341.tar.gz lacks a configure.ac, and therefore is not trivial to
build; I've just reported that upstream.

Bug#1082019: RFP: email-oauth2-proxy -- transparently add OAuth 2.0 support to IMAP/POP/SMTP client applications

2024-09-17 Thread Joost van Baal-Ilić
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name: email-oauth2-proxy
  Version : 2024-09-12
  Upstream Author : Simon Robinson https://simon.robinson.ac e.a.
* URL : https://github.com/simonrob/email-oauth2-proxy
* License : Apache-2.0
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description : transparently add OAuth 2.0 support to IMAP/POP/SMTP client 
applications

Email services that support IMAP, POP and/or SMTP access are increasingly
requiring the use of OAuth 2.0 to authenticate connections, but not all clients
support this method. This tool creates a simple local proxy that intercepts the
traditional IMAP/POP/SMTP authentication commands and transparently replaces
them with the appropriate SASL (X)OAuth 2.0 commands and credentials. Your
email client can continue to use the login or auth/authenticate options, with
no need to make it aware of OAuth's existence. The proxy works in the
background with a menu bar/taskbar helper or as a headless system service.
One can use email-oauth2-proxy to access e.g. an Office 365 email account
without using Outlook's build in authentication, or use Gmail without using the
App Password.


I plan to use this software myself @ $dayjob.  Happy to contribute to any
packaging effort, e.g. @ salsa in the debian namespace.

Bye,

Joost



Bug#1095417: O: validns -- high performance DNS/DNSSEC zone validator

2025-02-07 Thread Joost van Baal-Ilić
Package: wnpp
Control: affects -1 + src:validns
Severity: normal

Hi,

I intend to orphan the validns package.

I've just uploaded to sid with my name removed, and the name of not-DD Casper
Gielen removed.

It is C code, maintained using git on salsa, in the debian group.  Latest
upstream commit was in August 2023, 2 years ago.  I myself didn't do any work
on it since Dec 2016, after that the package saw some (much appreciated) NMU's
and Team Uploads.

The package description is:
 Validns is a standalone command line RFC 1034/1035 zone file validation tool
 that, in addition to basic syntactic and semantic zone checks, includes DNSSEC
 signature verification and NSEC/NSEC3 chain validation, as well a number of
 optional policy checks on the zone.
 .
 The utility was developed with the goal of it being the last verification step
 in the chain of production and publication of one or more zones containing up
 to many thousands (or millions) of signed records, making the speed of
 operation a primary focus, and reflect on validns’ design.
 .
 The utility is currently being used by several major DNS operators.
 .
 Currently, validns offers the following features:
  - parse RFC 1035-compliant zone files (so called “BIND” file format)
  - supports most of the standard record types
  - informs the user precisely where and what the errors are
  - verifies RRSIG signatures
  - NSEC/NSEC3 chain validation
  - supports signature validation in the future or in the past
  - built-in policy checks

  Programming Lang: Python, C
  Description : store encrypted OPAQUE-password protected information online

 Klutshnik implements a proof-of-concept VTUOKMS: a Verifiable Threshold
 Updatable Oblivious Key Management for Storage Systems, as described in
 https://eprint.iacr.org/2019/1275 by Jarecki, Krawczyk and Resch.  A VTUOKMS is
 a system that builds on Oblivious Pseudorandom Functions (OPRF), hides keys and
 object identifiers from the KMS, offers unconditional security for key
 transport, provides key verifiability and reduces storage.  It offers updatable
 encryption capabilities that support key updates, key rotation, forward and
 post-compromise security, public key encryption and verifiability.

 The klutshnik package comes with the kms and macaroon utilities as well as the
 kms and noise shared libraries.  The macaroon command line tool creates and
 manipulates "macaroons": the tokens klutshnik uses for authorization.

 See https://klutshnik.info/ for more information.

I will be working on the klutshnik package at (yet to be created)
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/klutshnik .

This work is part of NLnet's ThresholdOPRF project, which is funded through
NLnet's NGI0 Entrust, with financial support from the European Commission's
Next Generation Internet (https://ngi.eu) program. Learn more at the
ThresholdOPRF NLnet project page at https://nlnet.nl/project/ThresholdOPRF.
