Dear mentors,
I've uploaded a new release of the spotweb package to mentors. The initial database configuration (using dbconfig-common) wasn't working properly, thanks to Henkjan Gersen for catching this.
I hope the current spur of activity on the debian-mentors list will include a review of this package; the version currently in the archive is very outdated.
The package page on debian-mentors: http://mentors.debian.net/package/spotweb
Source package: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/spotweb/spotweb_20130826+dfsg-1~pre6.dsc
Earlier changes compared to the last version in the archive:
* Note: the ~pre<X> changelog entries will be merged before upload to Debian
* Change dependency to fonts-liberation. Closes: #722404
* New upstream version (v20130826)
* Updated debian/copyright
* Update README.source and get-orig-source
* Removed debian/po, not needed any more. Closes: #662123, #718528
* Add upstream changelog
* Updates for Apache 2.4 configuration snippets. Closes: #669806
* Have dbconfig-common handle database upgrades
* Use Debian-supplied jquery-form _javascript_ library instead of upstream
embedded version.
* Remove upstream embedded font files, use Debian-packaged fonts instead.
* The news server information is now maintained in the spotweb database, and
not in the configuration files. That means you will need to configure your
news server information again (admin/config/settings/newsservers).
* Disable Notifo notifications, the service has been discontinued.
* Do not exit postinst script with error if database update fails.
Closes: #709877
Closes bugs: #669806 (Apache 2.4 migration); #709877 (postinst error); #722303 (fonts-liberation migration)
The package is lintian clean, with two exceptions. Both of them I believe can be ignored:
- Experimental error on symlinks to _javascript_ libraries (probably resulting from lintian bug#672297)
- Unknown version on NEWS entry (because I already use the version number to be released to Debian)
I'd appreciate your reviewing the package and, if deemed worthy, upload this new release to Debian.
Cheers
Jan-Pascal
