Re: ROOT package

st people will have a good unofficial source of Root .debs before the license is changed, and when it is, they can immediately be uploaded to Debian. Finally, I want to note that Ricardo has been very kind in naming me as a co-packager -- he has done by far most of the work; I've just been offering

Re: Shotgun Debugger: different data packages depending on endianness

Sponsor request for cernlib

Hi everyone, I have made unofficial Debian packages of Cernlib, a set of libraries and programs used by a lot of high-energy physicists. The web page is here: http://wwwinfo.cern.ch/asd/cernlib/ and the license is GPL. To download my packages, you can find the required sources.list lines here: h

Re: The magic of debconf - can I avoid a second run of config?

Hi Johannes, I am not a Debian Developer, but I've had a similar experience in creating a package for installing various Monte Carlo (particle physics) libraries. Basically the installer package downloads and builds said libraries into their own .deb packages, and I want to have it ask the user

Sponsor request for wmakerconf, wmakerconf-data

Hi all, A little while ago I filed an ITA on wmakerconf and wmakerconf-data. With some help and advice from Bastian Kleineidam, I've fixed a number of bugs and updated wmakerconf to stop using the deprecated proplist interface. Preliminary packages are available here: deb http://borex.princet

Build-Depends-Indep and buildd question

Hi, I just got an FTBFS bug on cernlib from a buildd. The problem is that the buildd didn't install the Build-Depends-Indep dependency (tetex-bin) before running dpkg-buildpackage (which in turn calls debian/rules build). Therefore the build died in the debian/rules build-indep target. Is this

Upgrade wmakerconf package to GTK+ 2.x?

Hi, I recently adopted wmakerconf, which is based on GTK+ 1.2. Upstream seems to be MIA as far as I can tell. (The home page no longer exists, and I found the last upstream release, 2.9, from the windowmaker.org FTP site.) Would it make sense to compile the Debian package against GTK+ 2.x inst

Splitting a binary package: what to do with general README.Debian?

Hi all, I maintain cernlib. I decided to split the package libmontecarlo1, which contains several shared libraries, into one library for each package, since that seems to be the new trend (see the xlibs split), and also since it was requested in bug # 212409. (This entire discussion also appl
