It has some nice features like automation of parameters via MIDI CC (and send output back as MIDI too) and full OSC control. .. Carla currently supports LADSPA (including LRDF), DSSI, LV2, VST2/3 and AU plugin formats, plus GIG, SF2 and SFZ file support. It uses JACK as the default and preferred audio driver but also supports native drivers like ALSA, DirectSound or CoreAudio. This is a response to RFP bug #798490. I intend to package and maintain Carla under the umbrella of the Debian Multimedia Team. Carla right now is missing LinuxSampler as a depencency if we want to have support for GIG and SFZ file formats.

Hi folks,
During this week's Mini-debconf in Cambridge I have worked a lot on ppp
and I believe that I have found a solution to the problem of managing
ppp's ABI compatibility, including detecting and triggering rebuilds of
packages that build plugins for pppd.
In short, my solution involves manipulating the debian revision of the
package version to include an ABI version field. A new dh_ppp helper
script can inject appropriate Depends or Breaks dependencies into
packages that use it.
I have just uploaded the new version to experimental for further testing
and feedback.
For some packages that provide plugins, the required change boils down
to just adding "--with ppp" to the existing "dh $@" invocation. For
packages like network-manager that would like to use Breaks rather than
Depends, you also need to override_dh_ppp and run "dh_ppp --breaks",
then ensure that "Breaks: ${misc:Breaks}" appears in the control file.
More information about my scheme and the helper tools is available from:
README.source for ppp:
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/pkg-ppp.git/tree/debian/README.source?h=develop&id=dfac4f63a7cab9472da3cc5f17ed3c500a83712a

The commit that introduces this is:

I will shortly start preparing patches for the packages listed below
that build ppp plugins and submit them to the BTS.
I would very much appreciate any feedback or questions about the scheme.

Bug#804258: ITP: igb -- dkms source for the igb network driver
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: "Clément Hermann" * Package name: igb Version : 5.3.3.2 Upstream Author : Intel Corporation * URL : http://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000/ * License : GPL-2 Programming Lang: C Description : dkms source for the igb network driver igb is the Linux device driver released for Intel 82575/6, 82580, I350, and I210/211-based network interfaces. . This driver uses the same base as the igb module included in the Linux kernel, with added features such as advanced multiqueue control (RSS), interrupts throttle management, Large Receive Offload (LRO) and Low Latency Interrupts (LLI). . Only use this driver if you need these specific features. . Installation of the igb-dkms package will disable the in-kernel igb module. To re-enable igb, the igb-dkms package must be purged. . This package provides the dkms source code for the igb kernel modules. Kernel source or headers are required to compile these modules. I'm already uploader for openpgp-applet, but as it is sponsored by the perl pkg team, I'll need a new sponsor for this one (little sense in asking perl maintainer to sponsor a kernel driver). I'd be happy to co-maintain this package if some people are interested. I mainly use debian and preferably intel NIC for servers at work (and also did so at my previous job), so I'm motivated for the long-term maintenance of this package. Also, once it's in the archive and has migrated to testing, I intend to backport it at least for jessie (possibly wheezy as well). Cheers ! -- Clément Hermann (nodens)
(newbie) Disruptive LIRC package update.
Dear list, I am in the process on creating a new lirc packaging. The core reason is that current debian version is stalled at 0.9.0 as of 2011 whereas the upstream version is 0.9.3, with 0.9.4 under way. My plan is to try to package 0.9.4. Besides the more practical issues here is a big configuration trouble. Up to 0.9.0, lirc has been configured using a file hardware.conf. This is a debianism which never has been upstreamed. This file just isn't compatible with modern lirc which partly relies on the systemd setup, partly on a file called lirc_options.conf. So, an upgrade will not support hardware.conf. Which basically breaks each and every installation. While we could (i. e., should) provide docs and perhaps some tooling to ease the process, I think some kind of manual intervention is unavoidable. Now, I'm new to the Debian community. What is the policy w r t this kind of upgrades? As hinted on debian-mentors, I'm seeking advice in this list. Thanks in advance, --alec

Document how to migrate in README.Debian file, and add a NEWS file with an entry to briefly mentioning the need for migration and pointing to the README file where the details are. NB! the exact naming of the NEWS file is important, and the timestamp of the entry in that file must match the timestamp of your upcoming changelog entry (I'v gotten those details wrong myself numerous times): Test the final package works by installing apt-listchanges, and then when you install the new package it should show the NEWS entry _before_ the package is installed. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private signature.asc Description: signature

Finding the password of a volume without knowing anything about it would take way too much time (unless the password is really short and/or weak).
