Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for my package "openscad" and its dependency "opencsg". * Package name : openscad Version : 2011.04-1 Upstream Author : Clifford Wolf and Marius Kintel * URL : http://openscad.org/ * License : GPL-2+ with exception for CGAL (libcgal) Section : contrib/graphics It builds these binary packages: openscad - script file based graphical CAD environment The contrib section stems from the dependency on CGAL, which is published under the QPL, making it non-free. For opencsg, the Mentors EMail Template looks like this: * Package name : opencsg Version : 1.3.0 Upstream Author : Florian Kirsch <mail@opencsg.org> * URL : http://opencsg.org/ * License : GPL-2+ Section : libs It builds these binary packages: libopencsg-dev - image-based CSG library using OpenGL (development files) libopencsg-example - image-based CSG library using OpenGL (example program) libopencsg1 - image-based CSG (Constructive Solid Geometry) library using OpenG libopencsg1-dbg - debugging symbols for libopencsg For opencsg, lintian reports on the -I level * `no-symbols-control-file` (I've had a look at the wiki page referenced in the description, and it says one shouldn't do the symbol control file thing withot knowing what one is doing, and I lack depth of understanding in that area), * `binary-control-field-duplicates-source` (which I prefer for clarity) and * `copyright-refers-to-symlink-license` (which stems from including the whole GLEW copyright file, as upstream ships GLEW in his tarballs, and I left them there without building from them -- if generating a clean "upstream" tarball is the preferred way, I can modify the package). For openscad, on the same level, it reports * `spelling-error-in-binary` and * `no-upstream-changelog` -- well, lintian is a bit pedantic here. My motivation for maintaining this package is that I am using OpenSCAD on a fairly regular basis, and am in irregular personal contact with the upstream authors at the Metalab in Vienna. The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/contrib/o/openscad / http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/o/opencsg - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free - dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/contrib/o/openscad/openscad_2011.04-1.dsc - dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/contrib/o/openscad/openscad_2011.04-1.dsc / http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/o/opencsg/opencsg_1.3.1-4.dsc Further information, partially outdated, can be obtained via the packages' ITPs #583705 and #583476. I would be glad if someone uploaded this packages for me. Kind regards chrysn -- To use raw power is to make yourself infinitely vulnerable to greater powers. -- Bene Gesserit axiom
