searching for co-maintainers for my packages
by Patrice Dumas
Hello,
I am going to be in vacations and I have a bunch of packages without
co-maintainer. I will remain maintainer, and in general I am in contact
with upstream, but who knows, and I think it is better to always have
co-maintainers. Would somebody be interested?
Normal (or complex) packages:
* cernlib -- General purpose CERN library
* cernlib-g77 -- General purpose CERN library
* gnash -- GNU flash movie player
* grads -- Tool for easy acces, manipulation, and visualization of data
* kchmviewer -- CHM viewer with KDE support
* tetex-tex4ht -- Translates TeX and LaTeX into HTML or XML+MathML
Same here, and additionally this is an interdependent stack (currently
most don't build, waiting for upstream release for libnc-dap).
* bes -- Back-end server software framework for OPeNDAP
* dap-freeform_handler -- FreeForm data handler for the OPeNDAP Data server
* dap-hdf4_handler -- HDF4 data handler for the OPeNDAP Data server
* dap-netcdf_handler -- NetCDF 3 data handler for the OPeNDAP Data server
* dap-server -- Basic request handling for OPeNDAP servers
* libdap -- The C++ DAP2 library from OPeNDAP
* libnc-dap -- The NetCDF interface to DAP-2 from OPeNDAP
The remaining are very low work (or no work)
* acpi -- Command-line ACPI client
* acpitool -- A command line ACPI client for Linux
* agg -- Anti-Grain Geometry
* archmage -- Extensible reader/decompiler of files in CHM format
* asa -- Convert Fortran carriage control characters
* bibexport -- Extract entries from BibTeX and .aux files
* BibTool -- A Tool for manipulating BibTeX data bases
* bitmap -- Bitmap editor and converter utilities for the X Window System
* boolstuff -- Disjunctive Normal Form boolean expression library
* cppunit -- C++ unit testing framework
* docbook2X -- Convert docbook into man and Texinfo
* esmtp -- User configurable relay-only Mail Transfer Agent (MTA)
* flasm -- Flash bytecode assembler disassembler
* g2clib -- GRIB2 encoder/decoder and search/indexing routines in C
* gnochm -- CHM file viewer
* halevt -- Generic handler for HAL events
* intuitively -- Automatic IP detection utility
* libchmxx -- C++ bindings for chmlib
* libdockapp -- DockApp Development Standard Library
* libesmtp -- SMTP client library
* libnet -- C library for portable packet creation and injection
* libnet10 -- High-level API (toolkit) to construct and inject network packets
* libsx -- Simple X library
* ooo2txt -- Convert OpenOffice documents to simple text
* pam_ssh -- PAM module for use with SSH keys and ssh-agent
* perl-Algorithm-CurveFit -- Nonlinear Least Squares Curve Fitting
* perl-Cache -- The Cache interface
* perl-Feed-Find -- Syndication feed auto-discovery
* perl-File-BaseDir -- Use the freedesktop basedir spec
* perl-File-DesktopEntry -- Object to handle .desktop files
* perl-File-MimeInfo -- Determine file type and open application
* perl-File-NFSLock -- Perl module to do NFS (or not) locking
* perl-Heap -- Perl extension for keeping data partially sorted
* perl-HTML-FormatText-WithLinks -- HTML to text conversion with links as footnotes
* perl-LWP-Authen-Wsse -- Library for enabling X-WSSE authentication in LWP
* perl-Math-MatrixReal -- Manipulate matrix of Reals
* perl-Math-Symbolic -- Symbolic calculations
* perl-Parse-Yapp -- Perl extension for generating and using LALR parsers
* perl-Statistics-Descriptive -- Perl module of basic descriptive statistical functions
* perl-Text-CHM -- Perl extension for handling MS Compiled HtmlHelp Files
* perl-Text-Unidecode -- US-ASCII transliterations of Unicode text
* pmount -- Enable normal user mount
* python-chm -- Python package for CHM files handling

Adding /sbin and /usr/sbin to everyone's path in F10
by Tom Callaway
I propose that we add /sbin and /usr/sbin to the path for normal users
(as well as root) for F10? There are plenty of useful tools in there for
non-root users (ifconfig, fdisk, parted), and IMHO, any tool which
assumes the user is root because it lives in /sbin is fundamentally
broken. The LSB doesn't mandate this (at least, not anywhere I can see),
so I propose that we just do it.
Anyone opposed to such an action?
