I think one week is far too short.  I think Zack's proposed 15 days is
still far too short.  As so many people have sid, none of this is
urgent.

I think four weeks would be much better.  A maintainer might
reasonably go abroad for 2-3 weeks - we even have a VAC process for
handling absences.  (And we don't want to complicate this third-party
orphan process with references to VACs.)

Candidates for removal from testing (2012-10-30)

2012-10-30 Thread Niels Thykier
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA256

Hi,

We are considering removing the following packages from testing as
they have unfixed RC bugs filed against them. The packages can be
found in the attached dd-list.  The bugs that put them on this list
can be found in the removals file (also attached) just above the
package name.  We have BCC'ed this email to @packages.debian.org
for the relevant packages.

The packages have been selected based on the following criteria:
 * The package had at least one RC bug without activity for the past
   14 days.
 * If a bug is assigned to multiple packages, both packages will be
   affected.
 * The RC bug affects both unstable and testing.
 * The affected package does not have any reverse dependencies in
   testing.

If the relevant RC bugs in the affected packages are not dealt with
/before/ Wednesday the 7th of Nov.[1], the packages will be removed
from testing.  Note that "dealt with" may also include downgrading a
severity-inflated bug or fixing affected versions in the BTS.

Please remember to file unblock bugs for packages fixed via uploads to
unstable (and tpu bugs for requests to fix the package via a tpu
upload).

Should you need a bit more time than given, please do not hesitate to
contact us.  It is also easier for us if we can avoid having to
reintroduce a removed package.

We will check the DELAYED queues before activing the removal hints, so
NMUs in the DELAYED queues will be given a chance to reach unstable.

Thanks,
Niels (on behalf of the Release Team)

The bugs were found using the tools from:
  svn://svn.debian.org/svn/collab-qa/rc-buggy-leaf-packages


http://release.debian.org/wheezy/freeze_policy.html


[1] We intend to do the removal with the 10:00 UTC run of Britney of
that day.

I have just send another round (only 13-14 packages this time).  I hope
I can keep it at once per week for the rest of the freeze (or till we
run out of RC buggy leaf packages).

Though I am not sure whether to keep the rate this high outside freeze.
 Maybe keep the rate with higher deadline or slow down to (e.g.)
bi-weekly mails...  Anyway, we can look at that once development of
Jessie starts. :)

I lived under the impression that we were talking about packages which
were not touched for a *long* time (way longer than four weeks).  So we
had some long waiting time X + 15 additional days proposed by Zack.  We
are not talking about stealing packages right at the first day of a
maintainers VAC, right?

Kind regards

  Andreas.

Consider the case where a maintainer objects.  In that case you're
counting in the previous "long waiting" time a period which the
orphaner probably thinks shows disinterest in the package, but during
which the maintainer may well feel (for part of the time at least)
that the package simply didn't need any attention.  So I don't think
counting time-since-last-touched towards the notification period (even
in the moral sense you're now doing) is reasonable.

Also this argument is a form of "this has been waiting for ages so now
it is urgent" which I don't really agree with (unless there's an
actual deadline of course).

Unless we're having some heavyweight process with multiple pings
etc. (which we IMO shouldn't) the way the maintainer might first
discover that someone feels the package needs to be orphaned is by the
ITO bug.  The maintainer needs to have a good chance to object.

>   We are not talking about stealing packages right at the first day
> of a maintainers VAC, right?

That's not the intent, of course.  But if we invent a new process with
objective criteria, it needs to be robust against malicious
interpretation (or indeed careless action which follows the letter of
the rules).

Remember that we do not really have a VAC process for the ~50% of 
maintainers who are not DDs [1]. That group of maintainers have no real way 
of letting the rest of the project know that they are on VAC [2]. They also 
have an interest in and a proven ability to maintain packages and so may 
like to help out with other unmaintained packages ... after all, we they are 
encouraged time and time again to adopt packages rather than introduce new 
ones into the archive. But they cannot know if the maintainer is on VAC or 
not to engage in this process.

I'm not suggesting that VAC status should be public information, but blanket 
statements that we know if maintainers are on VAC (or MIA or whatever) are 
wrong for 50% of our maintainers as are statements that potential salvagers 
have this information.

They actually can send an email to debian-private to notify other DD that they 
are on VAC. They cannot subscribe to this mailing list but they can send mail 
to it.

This is a good point.  Another reason why the post-ITO waiting period
should be much longer than two weeks.

Hello List,

does it make sense to establish a list of candidates for reintroduction to 
testing ?

I have in mind packages that were discarded too quickly because
an easy to fix a RC appeared a some point while it was unofficially orphaned.

my experience as potential sponsoree for such a package answers me no because

But if you followed the Ubuntu way, you wouldn't have generated a -dbg
package for it, right?
http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/raring/pcmanfm
I see that the Ubuntu package still produces a -dbg package. I figure
that this is not what you would expect of an Ubuntu package.

Is it possible to change dh_strip's --dbg-package to produce (or not)
the dbg package in certain build conditions?

The closest thing I see to that is http://bugs.debian.org/510772 .

(I figure that there is also the issue of source-only uploads with
regards to this)

You mean if the debian/rules had only one rule '%:' with 'dh ${@}'?
Sure, I wouldn't. But simple solution isn't always right solution despite
of Occam's razor - in case if simplification kills functionality. And no
automations are done in Ubuntu either, if you meant that.

Many of packages in Ubuntu now produce -dbg packages. Just example:

xxx@xxx> grep '^Package: .*-dbg$' 
/var/lib/apt/lists/ubuntu.org.ua_ubuntu_dists_oneiric_main_binary-i386_Packages 
| wc -l
561
xxx@xxx> grep '^Source:' 
/var/lib/apt/lists/ubuntu.org.ua_ubuntu_dists_oneiric_main_binary-i386_Packages 
| sort | uniq | wc -l
1354

>Is it possible to change dh_strip's --dbg-package to produce (or not)
>the dbg package in certain build conditions?

Of course, I have an option to dh_strip there to have it but it is
common enough to have described name of debug package in debian/rules.

>The closest thing I see to that is http://bugs.debian.org/510772 .

Yes, I'm agree, to automate debug packaging would be nice thing. For
example, AltLinux (RPM-based distro) has it automated.

With best wishes.
Andriy.

As a former sponsor, the most common problem I saw was that packages
prepared for sponsoring during a release freeze took no account of the
freeze policy and introduced lame or undesirable changes which were not
suitable as RC bug fixes. If there's little chance of getting an
unblock, there is no point sponsoring.

Sponsoring can be more of a burden for the sponsor than just fixing
the bug, especially during a release freeze. I have, on occasion, moved
on to investigate a different RC bug in a more interesting package
rather than go through the process of sponsoring a stale "fix" merely
because it exists. This is as much a reflection of the kind of
packages involved - most are leaf packages which are of little interest
to most potential sponsors. Just because there is a potential fix
(which still needs testing by the sponsor), doesn't always mean that
the package is worth keeping in Debian.

If it fixes *only* rc bugs, then send a bug to sponsorship-requests.
I have already committed to reviewing all rc sponsorship-requests, so
if it looks good, I will likely sponsor it.

Best wishes,
Mike

This is not a bug.  Remember not to delete /etc/sudoers again.
