pacpl: Error when creating ogg tag

Dominique Dumont — 2012-05-25T14:47:12

Hello

pacpl stops when calling clear_comments method [1]. This method is 
provided by Ogg::Vorbis::Header but not by Ogg::Vorbis::Header::PurePerl

libogg-vorbis-header-perl was removed from debian (#594447) quite recently. 
(Looks like Ogg::Vorbis::Header::PurePerl is not a drop-in replacement for 
Ogg::Vorbis::Header :-/ )

arename project did replace Ogg::Vorbis::Header with Audio::Scan [2]. But such 
a change should be done upstream by pacpl author. 

Philip, what to you think ? Are you still maintaining pacpl ?

All the best

Hi all,

I'm Debian maintainer and maintain lemonldap-ng and libregexp-assemble.
I've prepared 2 new packages : libapache-session-browseable-perl and
libapache-session-ldap-perl. Can anyone take a look at this ?

  Description     : selection of utilities for data and data types

Data::Util provides utility functions for data and data types,
including functions for subroutines and symbol table hashes (stashes).

The implementation of this module is both Pure Perl and XS, so if
you have a C compiler, all the functions this module provides are
really faster.

This is a new dependency for libsvn-hooks-perl.

How to handle mod_perl bugs?

Keith Lawson — 2012-05-06T15:10:33

Hello,

I'm not sure how to handle bug #666837 for the package I built as long 
as bug #666822 is outstanding. Reading through #666822 it looks as if 
the Apache team plans to include 2.4 regardless of whether mod_perl2 is 
ready or not. Does this mean that all packages that depend on mod_perl2 
will be removed from Wheezy if mod_perl2 isn't ready by the June when 
the freeze is planned?

I'm happy to do any work required to close my outstanding bug but don't 
see how that's possible until mod_perl2 is updated to work with Apache 
2.4. Please advise.

Thanks,
Keith.

Bug#671656: ITP: libmodule-cpanfile-perl -- format for describingCPAN dependencies of Perl applications

  Upstream Author : Tatsuhiko Miyagawa
* URL             : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Module-CPANfile/
* License         : Artistic or GPL-1+
  Programming Lang: Perl
  Description     : format for describing CPAN dependencies of Perl applications

`cpanfile` describes CPAN dependencies required to execute associated Perl
code.

Place the `cpanfile` in the root of the directory containing the associated
code. For instance, in a Catalyst application, place the `cpanfile` in the
same directory as `myapp.conf`.

Tools supporting `cpanfile` format (e.g. cpanm and carton) will automatically
detect the file and install dependencies for the code to run.

Bug#671654: ITP: libdist-metadata-perl -- module for gettinginformation about a perl module distribution

  Description     : module for getting information about a perl module distribution

Dist::Metadata provides an easy interface for getting various metadata about
a Perl module distribution.

This is mostly a wrapper around CPAN::Meta providing an easy interface to
find and load the meta file from a tar.gz file. A dist can also be
represented by a directory or merely a structure of data.

If the dist does not contain a meta file the module will attempt to determine
some of that data from the dist.

* License         : Artistic or GPL-1+
  Programming Lang: Perl
  Description     : module for using native OS implementation of File::Spec from a subclass

File::Spec::Native is a stupid hack to make the default File::Spec behavior
available from a subclass. This can be useful when using another module that
expects a subclass of File::Spec but you want to use the current, native OS
format (automatically detected by File::Spec).

For example: Path::Class/as_foreign (as of version 0.24) allows you to
translate a Path::Class object from one OS format to another. However, there
is no way to specify that you want to translate the path into the current,
native OS format without guessing at what that format is (which may include
peeking into < at >File::Spec::ISA).

This module < at >ISA File::Spec.

libexcel-template-plus-perl

Robert James Clay — 2012-05-03T10:09:15

  I am working on getting Excel::Template::Plus into Debian as the
package libexcel-template-plus-perl.  Salvatore Bonaccorso recently was
kind enough review my efforts so far and one of the things he noted was
as follows:  "Missing dependencies on libmoose-perl".

  That's easy enough to do but I'm wondering if it still needs to be
listed explicitly when the (admittedly, new) package
libmoosex-param-perl, which also depends on it, is already listed?

Puzzling license warning from dh-make-perl

Brendan Byrd — 2012-05-02T21:41:14

This is from a "cpan2deb String::LCSS_XS" command:

**********
Copyright information incomplete!

Upstream copyright information could not be automatically determined.

If you are building this package for your personal use, you might disregard
this information; however, if you intend to upload this package to Debian
(or in general, if you plan on distributing it), you must look into the
complete copyright information.

The causes for this warning are:
Licensing information is present, but cannot be parsed

This is strange, considering a LICENSE file is present, as well as a
standard LICENSE=>perl entry in Makefile.PL.

https://metacpan.org/source/LIMAONE/String-LCSS_XS-1.2/Makefile.PL

In fact, after looking at the create_copyright sub:
https://metacpan.org/source/DAM/DhMakePerl-0.75/lib/DhMakePerl/Command/Packaging.pm#L925
, it looks like large parts of the whole sub could be replaced with
Software::License equivs.  I've started doing this for Module::Starter
myself.

Found the problem here:
https://metacpan.org/source/DAM/DhMakePerl-0.75/lib/DhMakePerl/Command/Packaging.pm#L1065

$meta = {
...
          'license' => [
                         'perl_5'
                       ],
...
}

Your code doesn't support the newer multi-license format that puts the
licenses into an arrayref.  (See
https://metacpan.org/module/CPAN::Meta::Spec#license.)  Again, most of
this sub could be re-written, anyway, to support all license types via
Software::License.

AptPkg: How to map from AptPkg::Cache::Package to AptPkg::Sourceobject

Dominique Lasserre — 2012-05-01T17:02:14

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

how can I associate an package object with the related source object?
See example (with my thoughts in comments) below. It looks very ugly to
me therefore I'm sure there is an (easy) way.
`apt-cache show package` also lists source name and version if they
differ from binary ones.

Please cc me as I'm not subscribed to this list.


Thank you for your help :)

Dominique


Example: I have a specific package "foobar" with last version (eg.
0.5.1+b1). The corresponding source package is "blub" (with eg. version
0.5.1):

#!/usr/bin/perl
use AptPkg::Cache;
use AptPkg::Source;

my $package = "foobar";

my $_cache = AptPkg::Cache->new();
my $_src = AptPkg::Source->new();

my $package = $_cache->{$package}{VersionList}[0];

# Now I have to search related source package, so I lookup source name
# using AptPkg::PkgRecords. But perhaps source package name is
# different in some versions so I have to assign AptPkg::Cache::VerFile
# object.
# Here I assume corresponding VerFile object is first element in
# FileList array:
my $pkgrecord = $_cache->packages->lookup($$package{FileList}[0]);
my $srcpkgname = $$pkgrecord{SourcePkg};
print "Sourcepackage: $srcpkgname\n";  # Sourcepackage: blub

# Now I can query related sourcepackage array < at >{$_src->{$srcpkgname}}
# but how to assign to binary package if versions can differ?

XML::Writer::String implements a bare-bones class specifically for the

IO::Handle object and writes XML data to the specified object (or STDOUT) via
it's print() method. This module simulates such an object for the specific
purpose of providing the required print() method.

It is recommended that $writer->end() is called prior to calling $s->value()
to check for well-formedness.
