Package: wnpp Severity: normal I request an adopter for the bplay package. The package description is: The bplay package provides a simple command-line utility for playing and recording audio files in raw sample, VOC and WAV formats. . To use this program you need a soundcard of some kind and the appropriate driver configured into your kernel. . When run the program creates two processes which share a memory buffer. It does reading/writing on the disk and the sound device simultaneously, in order to be less liable to `pause' because the disk is too slow or too busy. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (999, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-1-k7 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8)

In my case, the message originated in a university in the US, but the MTA there didn't add its domain. Then it appeared in my mailbox as coming from my ISP's domain, so if I reply to it, it'll get nowhere near its original sender. I agree this *has* to be a bug.

In that case, assuming the forwarding address is outside the domain, the message would then be leaving the domain, and would need a correct From: line ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). No bouncing involved. My point is: The From: address rewriting should be done *only* on the originating side, *never* when the message is in transit or arriving at the destination. > So the bug lies with the original transmitter, not with the receiving > mailer. And what have you lost? If it hadn't been fixed, any reply > would still not have arrived near its original sender. The bug lies with the original transmitter for letting a message go out without a From: line specifying the domain. The bug *also* lies with the receiver because it has lied gratuitously about the origin of the email, thus incurring in a mail forgery act. It's better to say "I don't really know where this message came from, but here it is" (honest), than to say "Look, here's a message for you, coming from x.y.z" (outright lie). > If the headers had been correct, they would not have been changed. I > think the millions of messages where this is the correct behaviour far > outweigh the half a dozen messages a year where it is wrong. I can't see your point here. When is it correct behaviour for a relaying MTA (not the originating one) to overwrite a mail message From: line with it's own address? You must mean the millions of cases where the *originating* MTA adds its domain address, and there we are in agreement. > Anyway, exim does have the behaviour you're looking for.

Latest sendmail broken on testing?
This is sendmail version 8.12.3-4, gotten in last night's dist-upgrade (testing), which ran without any errors. 1st issue: -- sendmailconfig aborts with the message: /usr/sbin/sendmailconfig: /usr/sbin/update_conf: No such file or directory Output of "dpkg -S update_conf" reveals: sendmail: /usr/share/sendmail/update_conf and there really is an "update_conf" file there, and *not* in /usr/sbin. Shall I file a bug? Or just make a symlink in /usr/sbin and get on with it? 2nd issue: -- During the upgrade, I was warned about both SASL and OpenSSL (TLS) not installed, so no support would be configured. But since then I've been getting a *lot* of log hits from sendmail fumbling with these 2 items and not finding anything, so apparently they *were* configured in after all? Not what the "installer" said, and not what I want. (Actually, it was while trying to get rid of these log entries that I found the sendmailconfig breakage).

If you don't have one, I'd like to recommend the GNU >General Public License (GPL), available at >http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html. I currently, and intentionally, have no copyright over the fortunes collection. I encourage everyone to copy it and use it freely, and as far as your system goes, you're most certainly welcome to it. As for the constituent quotes, my understanding is that they are either so old that they are public domain, or else the relatively brief quoting falls under the "fair use" doctrine. Plus, the fact that it has never been sold nor any money exchanged for it, means that I've never had any problems with it. Some people have suggested that it be compiled into a real book, as Chaz Bufe once did with many quotes. I'm not sure that I could do that with the collection as-is- I probably would need to get permission for many recent quotes, which is why I've decided to keep it in freely-distributed electronic form. I'm not sure if this would impact the way that you would package it in your system- thanks for the URL on the GNU license, and I'll take a look at it and see how it can be applied. If it needs a specific copyright statement to be included, I probably will adopt something like that, and I'll let you know as soon as I've officially applied whatever it needs to the file. Since its a Linux system, you might also want to talk with Ed Gauci <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> who has developed a whole suite of utilities for working with my particular fortune file, including a "quote of the day" generator, and several web-based utilities for extracting quotes. You might want to include those utilities with it, and Ed probably wouldn't mind packaging it all together. > >I'd also like to thank you for the great job - the fortunes you >collected are a funny, yet insightful overview of atheism.

Register your project at http://sourceforge.net, and you'll get all the nice stuff they give, like CVS access, shell access (to a compile farm, even), a pretty decent storage space, that can get bigger if you really need it (100mb+, iirc), and freedom to create mailing lists for your project.

Are you sure you want to do this? What about all those people who filter with spambouncer, but are dial-up users? You need to either have your job run when a PPP link is up, or ask the user if he's on a LAN/has direct access to the Internet before doing this. > the primary candidate for installation of spambouncer is > /usr/share/spambouncer, but /usr/lib/spambouncer might be better. in any > case, since /usr should be ro-mountable, these files should really be > sitting in /var/lib, right? that would mean that the entire "program" > sits in /var. is this acceptable? It isn't really a program, just a collection of filters, which are non-binary (thus, you'll only need to have a package which is Architecture: all). I'd say that if you rely on a method to update your spambouncer definitions that ensures you that /usr is mounted, you'd have no problem putting it on /usr/share/spambouncer/ like procmail-lib does. That's just my opinion, though, and I might be wrong :-) -- _ _ _| _ _ | _ . _ | _ to hell with icq, use jabber! (_(_|| |(_)_) |(_|\/|(_)|(_| THIS SPACE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK?

The woody release is, in what directly concerns me, a non-issue since I upgrade all available packages every day, and every day there are any number of packages, from a few to a few dozen, available for upgrade. That's my meter, and it shows a living and thriving distribution that makes me feel confident about my system, something I've only started to feel after switching to Debian Linux. -- Carlos Sousa -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: Feedback request about the Alba Upstream to Debian packaging effort
(Hi. Sorry if you already got this message. There was some problem with my previous attempts to reply, so I am trying again after our email admin changed some settings) Hi, I work at the Alba Synchrotron and I authored the presentation that Frederic sent (thanks to him for initiating this discussion). I'll try to reply to some comments: On Sunday, June 3, 2018 1:07:26 PM CEST PICCA Frederic-Emmanuel wrote: > Hello Ian > > I reviewed the version number proposal and it seems sound to me. > > It just comes to my mind that Maybe it does not fit well with my convention > for exeprimental numbering whcih is > blablab_x.y.z-t~exp1 > so maybe the best way would be to use > blalbla_x.y.z-t~~alba+1 So, you would not use the "bpo9" part for the packages built for stretch? > > I have some observations: > > You probably want to keep the delta between the upstream and the > > debianised branch as small as possible. > > Yes you are right this should be kept as small as possible.

Most of the time because the commit > are not that great either... That is exactly our approach. We let gbp dch do its magic and it is mostly a matter of educating ourselves to do adequate commits when committing to the debian branch(es). Our goal is to have "not-terrible" automated changelogs for our local packages but rely on manual editions (via a dedicated commit)) before public debian releases. > > Ideally you would treat debian/control as an output file: generate it > > entirely from upstream stuff, using some tool, and commit the result > > as a committed-artefact to the debianised branch. > > I agreed with you that it would be great to have a way to generate a debian > package from the upstream git repository and some minimalist metadata > purely descriptive. > > Your debianisation tool becomes part of the source code for your > > packages.

Auto-generating the package would be a good addition, but as Fred says, it is out of the current scope. That said, we do use some scripts that automate the debianization of our python upstream sources (and also creation of the repos, etc). For now these are too tied to our local infrastructure. I see a lot of room for improvement and generalization in this area. But still, in our experience, full automation of the first debianization of anything-but-trivial packages is too hard. So our approach is to assume that the first debianisation is done *before* we apply this pipeline > > Finally, and VERY CONTROVERSIALLY: consider whether you want to bother > >> > with source packages.

They are not used at all in the debian packaging part of the pipeline. For the packaging, we use git branches and merges only (see https://people.debian.org/~picca/gitlab-ci.yml ) > > Good luck and have fun! Cheers! And thanks again for your comments!

ALL people are happy (not only the HIG guys). The point I was trying to make (in a somewhat silly and satirical way) was that the notification area as it currently exists may well disappear with the new notification framework. So relying on an infrastructure that was never intended for the purpose you use it for may well be foolish idea. I'm not criticising your software, its certainly been done before (gnome-swallow-applet) and it might even be considered useful in some situations. As the author you of course feel that i'm making a personal insult against you, that is far from my intention. I just wonder what the sensibility is of including a package where the infrastructure it relies on may well enter a state of flux in the forseeable future. Cheers, Rob PS: Please use a better MUA, one that doesn't break threading and correctly quotes when replying. I have no idea about a new framework for notifications; maybe the current notification will desappear, I don't know, meanwhile I like to use this application. There are a lot of software who will disappear in the future anyway. I think the term "notification area" is a gnome thing, in kde the term "system tray" is valid.
