Bug#603336: ITP: classads -- library for Condor's classads expression language
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Michael Hanke * Package name: classads Version : 1.0.9 Upstream Author : Condor Team * URL : http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/classad * License : Apache Programming Lang: C++, Description : library for Condor's classads expression language A classad (classified ad) is a mapping from attribute names to expressions. In the simplest cases, the expressions are simple constants (integer, floating point, or string), thus a form of property list. Attribute expressions can also be more complicated. There is a protocol for evaluating an attribute expression of a classad vis a vis another ad. Two classads match if each ad has attribute requirements that evaluate to true in the context of the other ad. Classad matching is used by the Condor central manager to determine the compatibility of jobs and workstations where they may be run. This package is necessary for packaging Condor itself (#602842). Ubuntu has a classads package that served as starting point of this effort. Here is the current list of changes on top of that: * Shorten and slightly improve package descriptions. * Raise debhelper compat to 7 (already build-depended on >7). * Add another binary package 'classads' to install the command line utilities. Keeping them in the runtime library package would have made it impossible to co-install a future libclassad1 package, due to file conflicts. * Move to an unversioned -dev package. There is no intention to maintain multiple library versions in parallel. * No longer install unneeded .la files (squeeze release goal). * No longer install duplicate license files as docs. * Add VCS information to debian/control. * Move to a DEP-5 compliant debian/copyright. * Improve clean target in debian/rules to remove all temporary files. The packaging is available at: http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-exppsy/classads.git -- GPG key: 4096R/7FFB9E9B Michael Hanke http://mih.voxindeserto.de -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: Squeeze Artwork: selection of default theme

And I do not expect it, I must admit. Everyone do not get a say on most decisions made in Debian, and this is a good thing to speed up development and keep the overhead of decisions low. This time you (and I) did not get to provide input on the visual profile for Squeeze, but a lot of people were involved in the process and I trust them to do good work. I see no need for a rematch, nor any need to try to overrule those doing this work. I believe it is well within the scope and authority of the desktop group to make such decision, and am happy there are people working on the visual profile in Debian.

source package format 3.0 with multiple tar balls
Hi, I can't get $subject to work, and the wiki page http://wiki.debian.org/Projects/DebSrc3.0 is hard to parse/udnerstand in this respect. I have two source tarballs luatex_0.64.0.orig.tar.bz2 unpacking into luatex-beta-0.64.0/. luatex_0.64.0.orig-manual.tar.bz2 unpacking into luatex-beta-0.64.0/manual/ but it seems that an additional level of "manual" (=component) is created: dpkg-source: warning: ignoring deletion of file manual/manual/luatexref-env.tex dpkg-source: warning: ignoring deletion of file manual/manual/fdata.lua ... So I guess I have to repackage again the two orig .tar.bz2 (they are distributed like that), the source format cannot work with that. Am I right or do I miss something here?

It's correctly picking the "linux-headers" alternative. It then fails because linux-headers is a virtual package, and the internal resolver won't resolve virtual packages (where the apt and aptitude resolvers will) by default.

Please don't. There are many cases where a bug can be marked as done, while still affecting squeeze. Usually, a good way to understand why the bug still affects squeeze is to look at the BTS found/fixed graph, and at rmadison. - Lucas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: source package format 3.0 with multiple tar balls
dpkg-source unpacks the second tarball to a subdirectory based on the -manual postfix. The upstream tarball contains a manual subdirectory: $ tar tf luatex-beta-0.64.0-doc.tar.bz2 | head -n2 luatex-beta-0.64.0/manual/ luatex-beta-0.64.0/manual/graphics/ So the manual/manual thing comes from the orig.tar suffix plus the subdir inside the upstream tarball. So, two options: File a bug on dpkg-source asking for it to strip the additional levels of subdirectories with single entries until a file or a directory with multiple files/directories in it shows up. Adapt your packaging to use the additional level of subdirectory. This would be the simpler option, unless I am missing something. BTW, upstream uses a -doc tarball suffix, why not use that? -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I choose option 3: repackage the two tar balls into one ;-) As I did it the last releases. > BTW, upstream uses a -doc tarball suffix, why not use that? You mean keep the -doc, that unpacks into luatex-0.64.0/doc/manual/... and adapt the packaging. Yeah, that could be a good option with less work. Thanks for the suggestion.
