Bug#486192: RFH: darcs -- an advanced revision control system

2008-06-14 Thread Trent W. Buck
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I request assistance with maintaining the darcs-server package.

Specifically, I need one or two volunteers to help me by testing
prospective packages (prior to uploading to Debian) to make sure that
darcs-server works correctly.

Since I don't use darcs-server personally and don't know how to test
it, it's currently possible for me to accidentally break the package
and not realize it until AFTER the broken package hits Debian.  The
only testing it currently gets is "did it build without errors, and
does the script exist in the .deb?"

The package description is:
 This package contains the cgi script which allows users to
 conveniently browse your repositories on the web.  Darcs is a
 revision control system, along the lines of CVS or arch.

Some debian project machines uncontactable?

I don't know anything more at this time, but wanted to push a small

VLC 0.8.6a - Why hasn't the package been upgraded?

2008-06-14 Thread Björn Johansson


Greetings!

I have a working install of Debian Etch over here and it's installed on 
an Powerbook G3 "Lombard" and the version of VLC which is part of Debian 
Etch is still version 0.8.6a and I'm wondering why you people haven't 
done a package of version 0.8.6e yet?


I'm thinking of maybe trying to compile the source on my own, but I 
don't want to break the current installation of VLC, so, so far I 
haven't tried it.

It has been done:

http://packages.qa.debian.org/v/vlc.html

Latest version 0.8.6.e-2.3

That version is currently only in Debian Sid (unstable) and is part of
an ongoing transition so that it can be part of Lenny.

Can't check on backports right now - server unresponsive.

Re: Correct way to rename a binary package

Since I want to support smooth upgrades, I need to do the following:

  Provides: cl-hunchentoot [1]

  Conflicts: cl-hunchentoot (<< 2.0)

  Package: cl-hunchentoot
  Depends: hunchentoot
  
I was under the impression the "conflicts" was considered bad (it makes 
upgrading from an old version of cl-hunchentoot to hunchentoot harder), 
and it was generally better to leave the conflicts out and rely on the 
replaces header alone.


Or... maybe this is a slightly different situation.

Hi,

But here is your answer.

Because Etch is stable release, I guess.  We keep old one intentinally
for the sake of stability.

http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=vlc&searchon=names&suite=all§ion=all

Package vlc

* sarge (oldstable) (graphics): multimedia player for all audio and video 
formats
  0.8.1.svn20050314-1sarge3: alpha amd64 arm hppa i386 ia64 m68k mips 
mipsel powerpc s390 sparc
* etch (stable) (graphics): multimedia player and streamer
  0.8.6-svn20061012.debian-5.1+etch2 [security]: alpha amd64 arm hppa i386 
ia64 mips mipsel powerpc s390 sparc
* etch-m68k (graphics): multimedia player and streamer
  0.8.6-svn20061012.debian-5: m68k
* lenny (testing) (graphics): multimedia player and streamer
  0.8.6.c-6+lenny5 [security]: alpha amd64 arm hppa i386 ia64 mips mipsel 
powerpc s390 sparc
  0.8.6.c-6: armel
* sid (unstable) (graphics): multimedia player and streamer
  0.8.6.e-2.3+b1: amd64 i386 mips mipsel
  0.8.6.e-2.3: alpha arm armel hppa ia64 m68k powerpc s390 sparc
  0.8.6.e-2.1 [debports]: kfreebsd-amd64 kfreebsd-i386

So Debian is quite up-to-date :)

If you want to use very latest softwares (even with some trouble), use
 * testing (now lenny) or
 * unstable (sid)

> Björn Johansson

I sense that you need to get to know How Debian operates a bit more.

Good luck.

or create a backport, or look at backports.org if there's one already.
