Bug#464551: general: USB devices missing in lsusb

2008-02-07 Thread Rafael
Package: general
Severity: normal

Some of the USB devices I have, are missing in lsusb list, this ussue is in 
Testing and 
Unstable.
In Ubuntu Linux and Debian Etch all my devices are listed.
I have done some tests:
I start Debian.
I run lsusb and i see my  three USB devices listed: scanner, modem and mouse.
Now I plug USB media storage.
I run again lsusb and storage media is not listed, but it is recognised by 
dmesg and working 
well.
I reboot Debian without unplug USB media storage.
Now I run lsusb.
I now see listed mouse, media storage and scanner, but now modem is missing 
from the list.
Now I plug other device: Game Pad Saitek P880
I run again lsusb and game pad is not listed, but it is working as well.
There are now two devices: modem and game pad pluged to USB, that are not 
listed in lsusb.

Bug#448274: general: Create a meta package named debian-kde-desktop

2007-10-27 Thread Rafael
Package: general
Severity: wishlist

I suggest the creation of a meta package named for example debian-kde-desktop 
which should 
install the most common used KDE aplications in a Desktop and KDE Desktop with 
Debian artwork.
At style of meta package kubuntu-desktop in Ubuntu project.
A general configuration may be:
-Open Office as office suit.
-Kaffeine as video player.
-Amarok as audio player.
-D3lphin as default File Manager (It is easy configure KDE 3.5 for it).
-Konqueror and Iceweasel web browsers availables.
-Gwenview as image viewer.
-Gimp as image editor.
-Kwrite or kate as text editor.
-Adept suit for Package Management (adept-manager, adept-updater, 
adept-notifier, 
adept-installer), including software-properties-kde.
-Kmail as mail manager.
-Gdebi-kde for manual installation of Debian Packages.
-Ark for file compression.
-k3b for CD/DVD burning and Audio/Video extraction.
-speedcrunch calculator.
-gtk-qt-engine configured for a well presentation of possible installed gtk 
aplications in KDE.
-xmodmap and kmilo well configured for having special keyboard keys available.
-kooka for use scanner.
-kdpf or acroread for PDF viewing.
-qt4-qtconfig installed for configure qt 4 aplications apparience (as 
speedcrunch).
-ksystemlog for view system logs.
-kmix for volume management.

And any other aplication useful for Desktop use and management. The idea is to 
install one 
aplication for each function trying to choose the best aplication for each 
function, 
for example is a waste of disk having installed gwenview and kview,
kaffeine + kaboodle + noatun, speedcrunch + kcalc, adept + kpackage ...


You shoud do the same for XFCE Desktop and Gnome.

I hope for you acept the idea.

Octaviz is a visualization system for Octave. It is a wrapper that
makes all VTK classes accessible from within Octave using the same
object-oriented syntax as in C++ or Python. Octaviz also provides
high-level functions for 2D and 3D visualization. Using those
functions, most common visualization tasks (3D surface plots, contour
plots etc) can be accomplished without any knowledge about VTK.

Bug#339463: ITP: glpk-shlib -- shared library for the GNU Linear Programming Kit

2005-11-16 Thread Rafael Laboissiere
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Rafael Laboissiere <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>


* Package name: glpk-shlib
  Version : 4.8
  Upstream Author : Andrew Makhorin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://www.gnu.org/software/glpk/glpk.html
* License : GPL
  Description : shared library for the GNU Linear Programming Kit

This package is being introduced with the sole purpose of getting the
following bug fixed:

http://bugs.debian.org/310226

The octave2.9 package links against GLPK, but the glpk package only
provides a static library.  Since Octave uses loadable modules for its
functions, we need a gGLPK shared library.  I proposed a patch to both
the upstream authors and the glpk maintainer for using libtool:

http://bugs.debian.org/335237

Since this patch does not seem to be used, we (the DOG,
http://pkg-octave.alioth.debian.org) decided to fork glpk as an interim
solution.  The proposed glpk-shlib package will be very slim, containing
only the shared library for GLPK (libglpk0) and will not conflict with
glpk. See the thread starting at:


http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-octave-devel/2005-November/000705.html

A preliminary version of the package can be found at the following

In the debian/changelog for octave2.9 (and all other packages maintained
collectively by the Debian Octave Group, the DOG), we do add details
about who made the changes, like this:

 octave2.9 (2.9.3-1) experimental; urgency=low

+++ Changes by Colin Ingram
 
   * New upstream release
   [...]
   
+++ Changes by Rafael Laboissiere
 
   * The patches applied by dpatch are now done selectively according to
 the version of Octave.  For that, the debian/patches/00list file is
 now generated when running "./debian/rules maintainer-scripts" from
 the files debian/in/$(PACKAGE)-00list.

 -- Debian Octave Group <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>  Fri, 4 Nov 2005 10:30:54 +0100

I think this should be enough.

As regards the copy of this information into the Changed-By field of the
changes file, we are already requiring that the developers of the DOG 
use the -e option of debuild (cf the DOG Guidelines, at
http://pkg-octave.alioth.debian.org/DOG-Guidelines.html#building-and-uploading-packages).

This is why there is the Changed-By filed in the changes file.

At any rate, it seems that using mailing lists in changelog entries is
common practice, like:

http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/k/kdebase/kdebase_3.4.2-4/changelog

I am not claiming that since others have mailing lists in changelog
entries we have also the right to do it.  I only want to know how we
should address the issue.

I think that are two distinct concepts here.  The first is the maintainer
of the package, which should receive any e-mail messages related to the
package.  This name appears in the debian/changelog entry as well as in
the Maintainer field.  All correspondence must be directed to this entity
(either a person or a mailing list).

The second concept is the real, physical person who did a specific
upload.  This appears in the Changed-By field and is used to know who is
responsible for that upload.  If this person is in the Uploaders field of
debian/control, then debian-installer will not consider the upload as an
NMU.  Furthermore, this information is in the changes file and also
stored in the debian-devel-changes mailing list archive.

They get the correct entity, which is in the changelog (in the case of
the Debian Octave Group, it is [EMAIL PROTECTED]).
If something goes wrong with the autobuild, then this entity should be
contacted, not the person who did the upload.  Why would the autobuilders
be unhappy with a mailing list as the maintainer entity?

On the other hand, debian-installer needs to know who uploaded the
package and this informaation is in the Changed-By field of the changes
file, which will hopefully be correct for any future upload done by the
DOG members.

I do not know how you ot this figure, but anything greater than 0% should
be fixed if we decide that this practice is really against the Policy
(which I am claiming is not).

Yes, I have been doing things wrongly in the past, but this is not the

Could you please explain to me why having Changed-By as a mailing list in
this case (a binary NMU done by an autobuilder) is problematic?  You may
have good reasons for thinking Change-By should list a real person , but
I fail to understand it.

Notice that I am not religious about this ML versus person issue in the
debian/changelog entry.  If the majority of developers think we should do
one way or the other, I will comply with the decision and do the
necessary changes at the DOG (the Debian Octave Group, in case you did
not yet get the acronym).  I would like just to understand the rationale,
though.

By "person" I mean an entity with two legs, two arms, a trunk, and,
normally, a thinking head, a member of the homo sapiens species. Given
the stage of evolutionary progress of these entities, they should have no
problem understanding the paragraph I wrote above.

Mailing list vs. real person name in debian/changelog entries

2005-11-26 Thread Rafael Laboissiere
I am moving from debian-devel to debian-policy a discussion that started in
this bug report:

http://bugs.debian.org/340428

and continued in the thread:

   http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2005/11/msg01378.html

I hope it is appropriate to post this here in debian-policy.  My
apologies if not.

The issue regards section 4.4 of the Policy.  Some projects being
maintained collectively at Alioth are using the name of a mailing list in
the trailer line of debian/changelog entries.  Although I think it is
legitimate to do so, some people argue that this yields wrong Changed-By
field in the changes file for binary NMU done by autobuilders.  Some even
think that using a mailing list as the maintainer in the changelog entry
is a Policy violation.

I do not care doing one way or the other, but since we did not reach
consensus in debian-devel, I would like to know the opinion of the Policy
people.

Dangling alternatives symlink on the autobuilders

2006-01-21 Thread Rafael Laboissiere
We (the Debian Octave Group, pkg-octave.alioth.d.o) are running into a
nasty problem regarding the Debian autobuilders.  For some reason, one of
the previous uploads of the octave2.9 package has wrongly manipulated the
octave-config alternative and have let it in the manual status pointing
to an non-existent file (/usr/bin/octave-config-2.1.71).

This means that every package build-depending on octave2.1 does not have
the correct alternative installed and fails to build on the autobuilders
(or, even worse, builds incorrectly and enters testing, see Bug#349139).

To help diagnosing the problem, I added a "upadate-alternative --display"
command to the debian/rules file of the octaviz package.  The result can be
seen here, for instance:

http://buildd.debian.org/build.php?&pkg=octaviz&ver=0.4.0-21&arch=ia64&file=log

An excerpt of the log above:

###

How can this problem be fixed?

* URL : http://latex-mk.sourceforge.net/
* License : BSD-like (see below)
  Description : tool for managing LaTeX projects

LaTeX-Mk is a collection of Makefile fragments and shell scripts for
managing small to large sized LaTeX projects. The typical LaTeX-Mk
input file is simply a series of variable definitions in a Makefile
for the project. After creating a simple Makefile the user can easily
perform all required steps to do such tasks as: preview the document,
print the document, or produce a PDF file. LaTeX-Mk will keep track
of files that have changed and how to run the various programs that
are needed to produce the output.

A preliminary version of the package is available at the following
apt-getable repository:

http://people.debian.org/~rafael/latex-mk/

I am aware of an ITP for a similar package: latexmk
(http://bugs.debian.org/344562).  I will try to coordiante with its
maintainer to get the packages referencing each other in their descriptions.

According to its authors, praat is "doing phonetics by computer".  Through
its graphical interface, several speech analysis functionalities are
available: spectrograms, cochleograms, and pitch and formant extraction.
Articulatory synthesis, as well as synthesis from pitch, formant, and
intensity are also available.  Other features are segmentation, labelling
using the phonetic alphabet, and computation of statistics.  Praat is
configurable and extensible through its own scripting language and has
provisions for communicating with other programs.

As regards mailing lists managed by Mailman, an alternative to avoid the
problem is by including the bug reporter into the accept_these_nonmembers
list.  According to the Mailman documentation:

accept_these_nonmembers (privacy): List of non-member addresses whose
postings should be automatically accepted.

This is what I do for all the mailing lists I administer at Alioth.  It

I think that, in the case of responsive list moderators, this is indeed

Moderating has the great advantage of reducing spam in the list.  We have
used this setting for the mailing lists of the Debian Octave Group at
Alioth from the beginning and we are not willing to change it.

As regards bouncing, we recognize that receiving an automated message is not
the suitable behavior.  On the other hand, not receiving anything and not
seeing the message in the list archives is even worse.  We decided then to
suppress bouncing and also to be very reactive as regards the moderation.
We have two moderators for each list and we try to insure that one of them,
at least, will always be available for prompt moderation. As a courtesy to
bug reporters, when we accept messages we systematically add the sender to
the list of people allowed to post.

IMHO, if doing like delineated above, then it is totally acceptable to have
mailing lists as maintainer addresses.

The vtk and octaviz pacakges use CMake.  I initially packaged octaviz for
Debian, which is now maintained by the Debian Octave group.  I do not
remember having troubles using CMake, although have been an Autotools addict

My understanding is that the CMake project is gaining a lot of momentum and

Oh, that is rubbish English (too quickly written, no rereading before

only after January 8.  If nobody steps forward until this date, I will do
it.

Here are some comments about the your current package.

The description above is not the same as that in your APT repository.
Anyway, the short and long description can be improved along the lines of
the Debian Policy (section 3.4) and the Best Packaging Practices (section
6.2).  What about the following:

Description: font that imitates Daniel Kahn Gillmor's handwriting
 This is a goofy TrueType font that mimics Daniel Kahn Gillmor's
 handwriting. It only roughly covers charset ISO-8859-1, but it includes
 bold, italic, and bold italic variants.
 .
  Homepage: http://lair.fifthhorseman.net/~dkg/fonts/ 

Also, in debian/rules, you should clean the build-stamp file.  Otherwise,
I do not see any strong reason this needs to be a Debian native package.  I
would rather upload it as 0.009-1.

Final remark: dpkg ignores zeros after the period in version numbers.  This
results in some surprising behavior, for instance:

0.009 > 0.01  (cf dpkg --compare-versions 0.009 gt 0.01 && echo true)

but

0.009 < 0.010

  Description : creation of PostScript documents containing Unicode symbols

LASi is a library that provides a C++ stream output interface (with
operator << ) for creating PostScript documents that can contain
characters from any of the scripts and symbol blocks supported in
Unicode and by Pango layout engine. The library accomodates
right-to-left scripts such as Arabic and Hebrew as easily as
left-to-right scripts. Indic and Indic-derived Complex Text Layout
(CTL) scripts, such as Devanagari, Thai, Lao, and Tibetan are
supported to the extent provided by Pango and by the OpenType fonts
installed on your system. All of this is provided without need for
any special configuration or layout calculation on the programmer's
part.

A preliminary version of the packages are available at the apt-getable
repository:

  Description : Collection of useful JED modes and utilities

This package will contain several add-on packages for the JED editor which
are present at jedmodes.sf.net and elsewhere on the net.  For now I just
included home_lib, sl_utils, and ispell from jedmodes.sf.net.  Actually, the
origin of this package was a request to improve the ispell jed support
provided by the dictionaries-common package (see Bug#199502).

The preliminary (highly experimental) packages, including a modified version
of dictionaries-common, can be apt-got with the following lines in
sources.list:

deb http://people.debian.org/~rafael/jed-extra ./
deb-src http://people.debian.org/~rafael/jed-extra ./

WARNING: This apt-get repository is highly experimental (haven't I said that
already?) and the final release of jed-extra will have to be coordinated
with a changed version of dictionaries-common (jed-extra conflicts with
dictionaries-common <= 0.10.3).  Put the lines above in your source.list
only if you really want to participate in the development of jed-extra until
its official release.

There is no policy in Debian regarding packages which provide SLang2
modules.  Maybe we should write a draft and put it in one of the slang2

Thanks for the advice.  I will change the name of the package in the next

I would keep the first version really short.  The only two things that
are important for now is the package naming, the installation directory
for the modules, and maybe the dependency relationships.  The upstream
Makefile for slgdbm installs the module in
/usr/share/slsh/local-packages, but I moved it to /usr/share/slsh.  Do
you think this is correct?  As regards dependency relationships, slgdbm
has:

Suggests: slsh (>= 2.0) | jed (>= 0.99.17) | slrn (>= 0.9.8.1pl1-4)

I do not know whether this is appropriate or not.

The question is: can a module compiled with SLang2 be loaded by Slang1 ?  In
other words, is there binary backward compatibility?

Bug#333683: O: octave-statdataml, r-cran-statdataml, and r-cran-xml

2005-10-13 Thread Rafael Laboissiere
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal


Some time ago I packaged StatDataML (http://www.omegahat.org/StatDataML/)
for Debian hoping that it would be a solution for communicating data between
Octave and R.  The current version of the statdataml package (1.0.9) still
has me as maintainer, although I already put the sources in the SVN
repository of the Debain Octave Group (http://pkg-octave.alioth.debian.org).

In the meanwhile, I started using exclusively HDF5 for transferring data
between Octave and R and I think this is a superior approach, not to mention
the fact that I am now also able to use Perl to read/write the data files.

The statdataml source package generates two binary packages:
octave-statdataml and r-cran-statdataml.  This last one depends on
r-cran-xml, which I also packaged for Debian.

Now, the scoops:

1) Both r-cran-statdataml and r-cran-xml have been made available by the
   Debian BioCondutor Group (http://pkg-bioc.alioth.debian.org/).  BTW, the
   versions present in their apt-getable repository
   (http://public.pzr.uni-rostock.de/~moeller/mirror/) are more recent than
   those packaged by me.

2) The newest upstream version of StatDataML 1.0-10
   (http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Descriptions/StatDataML.html) even
   does not contain the Octave part which was present in 1.0-9.

3) The Octave part of StatDataML 1.0-9 even does work correctly with g++
   4.0.  I do not know whether the problems comes really from octave 2.1.71,
   from libxml2 in sid, from the compiler, or from a combination of all
   those.  I do not have the time/interest in debugging this problem.

4) A bug report has been recently filed against r-cran-xml
   (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=330622).  This is an
   upstream problem and I even do not know whether the most recent upstream
   version of the fixes it.  (Again, my time/interest on this is very
   scarce).

Under all this circumstances, I am abandoning the StatDataML packages as
well as r-cran-xml.  This orphaning bug report against wnpp is the first
step before asking for removal of the packages from the FTP archive.

  Description : GNU Scientific Library binding for S-Lang

 The GNU Scientific Library (GSL) is a vast collection of robust and
 well documented numerical functions. It includes support for many
 special functions, random numbers, interpolation and integration
 routines, and much more.
 .
 Many of the routines in the GSL may be made available to the S-lang
 interpreter via the GSL modules included in this package.
 .
 The following GSL modules are available:
 .
  * gslsf: The GSL special function module. Currently, this module
provides an interface to nearly 200 GSL special functions.
  * gslconst: The GSL constants module. This module defines many
constants such as CONST_MKSA_SPEED_OF_LIGHT, CONST_CGSM_BOLTZMANN,
etc.
  * gslinterp: The GSL interpolation module, which includes routines
for linear interpolation, cubic splines, etc.
  * gslrand: The GSL random number module.  This module supports most
of GSL's random number generators and distributions.
  * gslcdf: The GSL cumulative distribution function module.
  * gslfft: The GSL fast-fourier transform module.
  * gslcore: This is a module that must be loaded before any of the

  Description : PVM (Parallel Virtual Machine) interface for S-Lang

 PVM (Parallel Virtual Machine) is a software package which permits a
 heterogeneous collection computers connected by a network to be used
 as a single large parallel computer.
 .
 The S-Lang PVM module provides a S-Lang interface to PVM. By
 organizing distributed computations with S-Lang, one gains the
 advantages of programming in an interpreted language.
 .
 With this approach, one can make efficient use of all available
 computer resources: high level logic is handled in interpreted code,
 CPU intensive work is done in compiled code and PVM simplifies using
 all available CPUs.

  Description : C code generator for the S-Lang scripting language

 SLIRP is a C code generator, aimed at simplifying the process of
 creating modules for the S-Lang scripting language. Using it can
 dramatically reduce the time and effort required to make C, C++, and
 FORTRAN code callable directly from the S-Lang interpreter.

 SLIRP can also generate Makefiles to automate the module build process,
 as well as pure C bindings for C++ code (cfront mode), or empty (stub)
 implementations for the interface(s) specified by its input. The code
 emitted in the latter two cases has no dependencies upon S-Lang
 whatsoever.

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Debian Octave Group <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

[N.B.: This ITP was generated automatically from a template, even
though the DOG does intend to package the described software for
Debian.  We apologize for the glitches in the text below.]


* Package name: octave-odepkg
  Version : 0.4.1
  Upstream Author : Thomas Treichl
* URL : http://octave.sourceforge.net/odepkg/index.html
* License : GPL version 2 or later
  Programming Lang: C++, Octave
  Description : A toolkit for Differential Equations and Initial Value 
Problems

This is one of the packages distributed by the octave-forge project
using the pkg.m system introduced in version 3 of Octave [1], a
numerical computation software.

Although users can use directly the pkg() command for installing the
octave-forge pkgs, the Debian Octave Group (DOG) [2] will provide them
as Debian packages. Preliminary versions of the packages can be found
in the DOG SVN repository [3].  The final versions of the packages
will be built using the octave-pkg-dev insfrastructure [4] [5].

The full list of octave-forge pkgs can be found at the SF project website [6].
