development plans for the squeeze cycle
Heya, As announced on dda [RT1], we want to get an impression when releasing Squeeze is feasible. We have proposed a (quite ambitious) freeze in December 2009, and some developers have noted that their planned changes wouldn't be possible in this time frame. So, to find out when releasing would work for most people, I've just send out a heap of mails to some specific teams who maintain larger packages, but I would also love to hear answers from other developers: Do you have any big changes planned? How much time would they take, and what consequences are there for the rest of the project? How many "big" transitions will the upcoming changes cause? When should those happen? Can we do something to make them easier? Thanks, Marc [RT1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2009/07/msg1.html pgpMt1sGDBp1l.pgp Description: PGP signature
Bug#221679: ITP: libglib-perl -- Perl interface to the Glib and GLib's GObject libraries
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name: libglib-perl Version : 1.011 Upstream Author : Gtk2-Perl Team <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://search.cpan.org/~mlehmann/Glib-1.011/ * License : LGPL-2 Description : Perl interface to the Glib and GLib's GObject libraries This module provides perl access to GLib and GLib's GObject libraries. GLib is a portability and utility library; GObject provides a generic type system with inheritance and a powerful signal system. Together these libraries are used as the foundation for many of the libraries that make up the Gnome environment, and are used in many unrelated projects.
Bug#221687: ITP: libextutils-pkgconfig -- simplistic perl interface to pkg-config
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name: libextutils-pkgconfig Version : 1.00 Upstream Author : muppet <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://gtk2-perl.sourceforge.net/ * License : LGPL Description : simplistic perl interface to pkg-config The pkg-config program retrieves information about installed libraries, usually for the purposes of compiling against and linking to them. . ExtUtils::PkgConfig is a very simplistic interface to this utility, intended for use in the Makefile.PL of perl extensions which bind libraries that pkg-config knows. It is really just boilerplate code that you would've written yourself.
Bug#221684: ITP: libextutils-depends-perl -- easily build XS extensions that depend on XS extensions
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name: libextutils-depends-perl Version : 0.102 Upstream Author : Paolo Molaro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://gtk2-perl.sf.net/ * License : ? (Mailed upstream) Description : easily build XS extensions that depend on XS extensions This module tries to make it easy to build Perl extensions that use functions and typemaps provided by other perl extensions. This means that a perl extension is treated like a shared library that provides also a C and an XS interface besides the perl one. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux Asfaloth 2.4.21-rc2-ac2 #2 Don Mai 22 14:13:00 CEST 2003 i686 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Bug#221744: ITP: libgnome2-perl -- Perl interface to the Gnome libraries
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name: libgnome2-perl Version : 0.38 Upstream Author : Gtk2-Perl Team <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://gtk2-perl.sourceforge.net/ * License : LGPL-2 Description : Perl interface to the Gnome libraries The Gnome2 module allows a perl developer to use the Gnome libraries. Find out more about Gnome+ at http://www.gnome.org. . The perl bindings follow the C API very closely, and the C reference documentation should be considered the canonical source.
