Re: RFS: setop/0.1-1 [ITP]



Hello everybody,

unfortunately nobody seems to be interested in sponsoring my package setop, so I updated my upload to increase quality.

Besides some spelling errors (that will be removed with my next update) there are still a "Watch file is not present" message and some lintian informational warnings, namely "no-upstream-changelog", "hardening-no-bindnow", and "hardening-no-pie". Please tell me if it is necessary to get rid of them all or if there is something else wrong.

Because no one is yet convinced of setop, once again a description:
setop is a simple console application for scientific working and advanced scripting. I already needed it twice at work and noticed that there is nothing similar. There are also some websites explaining workarounds for getting set operations, see e. g.
<http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/11343/linux-tools-to-treat-files-as-sets-and-perform-set-operations-on-them>
where you can also find programming and scripting attempts from other users to fill the gap.

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/setop/setop_0.1-1.dsc

Some possible features are intentionally missing (disjoint, power set, minimum, …) but may be added if requested and sensible, I am open for suggestions :-) (perhaps not here on the list but on Github).


Regards,
Frank
