Orphaning some packages

2005-01-01 Thread Thorsten Sauter

Hello,

I plan to orphan some of my packages. At the moment I have not enough
time for those packages.

   cacti - Frontend to rrdtool for monitoring systems and services

There is a new upstream version available, which fix a lot of
outstanding bugs. Please let me known, if you are interested on this package.


If no one is interested on those packages, I ask for removal from the
archive:

   kernel-patch-systrace - Systrace kernel patch
   systrace - Enforce system call policies for applications
   xsystrace - Systrace frontend invoked by systrace

Thorsten

Bug#289537: O: systrace

2005-01-09 Thread Thorsten Sauter
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I decided to orphan the systrace packages (systrace, xsystrace, 
kernel-patch-systrace).
I don't use anymore, and I have not enough time to give it any attention.

If nobody picks the packages I request the removal from the archive.


Package: systrace
Description: Enforce system call policies for applications
 Systrace enforces system call policies for applications by
 constraining the application's access to the system. The
 policy is generated interactively. Operations not covered
 by the policy raise an alarm and allow an user to refine the
 currently configured policy.
 .
 This requires a special kernel patch, provided by kernels compiled
 with the kernel-patch-systrace patch.

2005-01-29 Thread Thorsten Sauter
Subject: O: cacti
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I orphan the cacti package. I have no longer time maintaine this package.

Package: cacti
Description: Frontend to rrdtool for monitoring systems and services
 Cacti is a complete frondend to rrdtool, it stores all of the necessary
 information to create graphs and populate them with  data  in  a  MySQL
 database. The frontend is completely PHP driven. Along with being  able
 to maintain Graphs,  Data  Sources,  and  Round  Robin  Archives  in  a
 database, cacti handles the data gathering also.  There  is  also  SNMP
 support for those used to creating traffic graphs with MRTG.

Anon UploadQueue and command files

2003-12-15 Thread Thorsten Sauter

Hello all,

I have tried to upload a package with dupload to the anonymous ftp
uploadqueue on ftp-master. Unfortunately dupload fails to upload the
files.
ncftp /pub/UploadQueue > ls -l php*
-rw-r-S---1 2349 8020   Dez 15 18:24 
phpsysinfo_2.1-3.diff.gz

After this I have tried to remove the faulty file with a commands file
as described in the README file. The commands files is attached.

After processing the commands file I got the following error from katie:

As you can see, the commands file is signed with my gnupg key, which is
available in the debian keyring (no, the key is not one of the
compromised ones).

I have downloaded the debianqueued tarball from [1] and tried to
reproduce the problem localy. But the commands file will processed fine
here. I have found only those relevant lines in the tarball, which could
produce the error message above:
$ cat debianqueued

or die "Cannot open $changes: $!\n";
[...]
outer_loop: while(  ) {

msg( "log,mail", "$changes isn't signed with 
PGP/GnuPG\n" );
msg( "log", "(uploader $main::mail_addr)\n" );
goto remove_only_changes;
}
[...]


Is something wrong in my commands file? Or is this an known problem in
the uploadqueue on ftp-master?

Thanks for your help

since version 2.31-1 libphp-adodb is now installed in /usr/share/adodb,
this should now conform to the FHS.

2002-11-21 Thread Thorsten Sauter

Hi,

anyone can agree that this is a little bit more clearer?



Description: Display program shortcuts as icons on desktop
 With idesk you can define shortcut's for several programs
 and display these icons with a short description on the
 desktop of any window manager.
 .
 It can use png images as icon source (including transparent
 support) and support antialised fonts to print the description.



Thanks for you help...


- Forwarded message from Filip Van Raemdonck <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -

The current description doesn't fullfill it's purpose.

> idesk plops icons down on your root window (desktop).

`Plops'? What's that?
And wearing my dummy desktop user hat, WTF is a root window?

> It includes support for PNG alpha layers, and pretty antialiased text
> with Xft

Same hat; what are alpha layers and Xft?
I'd rather just talk about translucent [1] icons and pretty antialiased [2]
text without mentioning PNG alpha layers or Xft.
Also, this sentence needs a . at the end, and it could be separated from the
previous one (although that isn't strictly necessary).

Now, I've read the entire description, and either as a dummy or non-dummy
user I still don't know what I can do with the icons. Are they:
- some sort of shortcuts?
- actual files and directories?
- both?
- icons for minimized applications, as in the iconbox of some motif based
  desktops?


Regards,

Filip

[1] Assuming that's what it does; if it only means that the icons can have
completely transparant parts that's hardly a feature, and I'd rather
consider it a misfeature of any icon using app which doesn't do that.

[2] It's debatable if a dummy user knows what antialiased text is, but it is
good enough a feature to mention it even if only for more experienced
computer users.

I'm *not* in the debian keyring, but before the century crash :), my gpg key
