Huh? Isn't having the lists searchable generally a good thing? Or has it
been decided that it causes more harm than it's worth with cases like
this one?

Oh but there is, it just needs to depend on whether modification has
occurred. So for unmodifed packages,

  Foo Bar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> is the Debian maintainer of this package
  (which has been copied from Debian)

and for others

  Silly Ubuntu Person In Question <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> is the maintainer
  of this package (based on work from Debian)

or the team that did it or whatever.

Bug#202485: ITP: aewm++-goodies -- utilities to complement a minimal window manager

2003-07-22 Thread Chris Boyle
Package: wnpp
Version: unavailable; reported 2003-07-22
Severity: wishlist

I'm working on this package now, I'll upload within the next few days, 
followed by an updated aewm++ (1.0.24), which I cannot upload yet since 
it will declare Suggests on aewm++-goodies (which doesn't exist yet). 
Upstream decided to split this to a separate package; I am following.

* Package name: aewm++-goodies
  Version : 1.0
  Upstream Author : Frank Hale <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://sapphire.sourceforge.net/
* License : some GPL, some BSD-like; details will be given
  Description : utilities to complement a minimal window manager

 These utilities were previously supplied with aewm++; they are intended
 to provide some of the typical desktop functionality that aewm++ itself
 does not include. This package provides:
  * appbar: a small application launcher
  * aewm++_fspanel: a very small panel
  * setrootimage: draws a gradient on the X root window
  * aewm++_xsession: keeps an X session alive





Bug#449283: RFA: reaim - Enable AIM and MSN file transfer on Linux iptables based NAT

2007-11-04 Thread Chris Boyle
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

ReAIM is a proxy to allow AIM and MSN users to transfer files and images
behind NAT. popcon reports 27 installations, 16 of which used regularly.
I no longer use reaim and have no convenient test environment for it.
The last upstream release was in March 2003. There are 2 open bugs.

Clients may well have moved on to cope with NAT themselves since I last
used the relevant functionality. Can anyone confirm that or point me in
the right direction?

I'm a little stuck for bandwidth / a machine that isn't on KDE 3 yet
(i.e. has KDE 2's libarts-dev) at the moment. If someone wants to just
do this:

  * Put build-deps back to libarts-dev for the moment, as
libarts1(-dev) (i.e. KDE 3) doesn't seem to be in
unstable yet (closes: #153595)

i.e. put that one build-dep back to libarts-dev (>= 4:2.2.2-1), and NMU,
it would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
