Bug#970279: O: nutsqlite -- Dietary nutrition analysis software
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-med@lists.debian.org
I intend to orphan the nutsqlite package. I've not used this package for
years. The upstream has generally been helpful.
The package description is:
NUTsqlite uses the USDA database and stores this along with your personal data
in a portable SQLite database allowing you to perform analysis and plan for
your nutrition. Features include:
.
* The complete USDA database, your personal data, and the program code all
stored in a portable SQLite database
* Foods easy to find and add to daily meals
* Configurable for 1-19 meals per day and any dietary plan--including
ketogenic, low carb, zone, low fat
* Comprehensive meal analysis for any number of consecutive meals
* Presents both easy-to-read percentage summaries and in-depth nutrient
analysis, including Omega-3 and Omega-6 essential fatty acids
* Foods can be weighed in grams or ounces
* Includes novel meal planning feature: you choose the food, NUT adjusts the
quantities to your plan
* Calorie Auto-Set feature uses linear regression on daily scale measurements
of weight and body fat percentage to find optimal calorie level for
improved body composition
* Allows recording of recipes and customary meals for fast data entry
* Sorts foods richest in each of the 150 nutrients
* Reveals which foods contribute most to user's nutrition
If you do take this on, you might want to look at splitting out the data
from the application to reduce the size of the arch specific binaries,
and maybe even (if possible) encourage reuse of the data across
applications (the USDA database in particular).
Thanks,
Iain.
