It has lots of features, and can be considered a decent BioEdit replacement for Debian systems. This program is in java and therefore comes with the standard bunch of java-related problems: binary jars in the source and the like. I haven't checked yet wether all dependencies are truly free of if they are packaged for Debian. I intend to place this package under the juridiction of the debian-java team, but I am aware it could also belong to the Debian Med Team... Cheers, Vinc

Need news for DeveloperNews

Raphael Hertzog — 2008-12-01T09:52:01

Hello, it's been a long time since I have been able to send out the last issue of "Misc devel news". I would like all developers to (regularly) make the effort to share some words about the cool stuff they are doing or are planning to do so that we can have something at least twice a month or so. The bar is not very high, I need 5 news and they can be as short as one paragraph. You can also use the DeveloperNews to post call for helps. Random ideas of stuff that would be (IMO) ok but that nobody has added yet: - packages.debian.org web interface runs on two hosts (round-robin DNS) - ftpmasters accept AGPL 3.0 in main - switch to mono 2.0 in preparation - important changes to debian-cd, hence tester needed - security team meeting results - lintian 2.X important changes - any nice new devscripts tool (or important improvement) - any important stuff that goes on in your team Basically when you post an important announce on a dedicated list, it can make sense to write a paragraph in DeveloperNews and point

Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-CC: debian-devel< at >lists.debian.org Package name : upprint Version : 1.5 Upstream Author : Peter Selinger (selinger< at >users.sourceforge.net) URL : http://www.mscs.dal.ca/~selinger/upprint/ License : GPL / psutils licence Programming Lang: C The upprint package contains tools for better formatting of print jobs. Unlike print systems such as CUPS, which delegate all formatting to the print server, the upprint tools are designed to work on the user side, and therefore under the user's control. The package provides the following tools: pstops-clip: an extension of Angus J. C. Duggan's pstops program for reformatting postscript files. The extension allows configurable page clipping. psdim: a small utility to be used in conjunction with pstops or pstops-clip. It determines the true margins of a postscript documents and calculates the optimal page placement for n-up printing. It outputs a format string suitable for processing by p

Popular packages in Ubuntu that is missing in Debian/main

Petter Reinholdtsen — 2008-11-30T15:05:09

To see which popular packages are missing in Debian/main at the moment, I decided to compare the list of popular pckaages in Ubuntu with the list of packages in Debian/main. The result was interesting. There are at the moment 823762 reports colleected in popcon.ubuntu.com. I decided to use 5000 (~0.6%) installations as the cutoff point defining "popular", as 5000 installations could be seen as quite a significant user base, even if it is a very small fraction of the user base.. This gave me a list of 1543 packages in Ubuntu. There are 31595 debian/main packages listed as used by popcon.debian.org, and comparing these lists give this list of 152 packages only in Ubuntu and not in Debian/main: acroread acroread-escript adobe-flashplugin apparmor apparmor-utils apport apturl avidemux binutils-static bluez bluez-gstreamer busybox-initramfs compiz-wrapper displayconfig-gtk dkms dvdrip emerald example-content firefox-2 firefox-3.0 firefox-3.0-branding firefox-3.0-gnome-support gdebi-kde gstreamer0.

QLandkarteGT is the successor of QLandkarte. Among various improvements (e.g. 2D/3D map rendering and reduced ressource demands) the major difference is its device-independent architecture, which is not limited to Garmin devices anymore. Therefore, the package also does not include device drivers. Drivers for a number of Garmin devices are available from the package. Additionally, QLandkarteGT serves as a frontend to the GDAL tools, to make georeferencing of scanned maps feasible for users. In con

Hi There! Posting again with GPG signature so that you know that it IS me... Just getting back into things after my father has died, and after starting my new degree studies in Masters of Dance Study. here at Otago University. My father had an 8 week battle with cancer before he went. I will be getting new versions of my packages up in the next 2 weeks. I have just received a new Core 2 Duo laptop with KVM support, so I should be able to get this done quickly. Currently I have a job with Earthlight Communications, http://www.earthlight.co.nz/ Regards, Matthew Grant
