Package: wnpp
Version: N/A; reported 2009-05-15
Severity: normal

It has been about a year and a half* since svn-buildpackage hasn't
been uploaded, the 0.6.24 is waiting in collab-maint's SVN for an
upload for quite some time now. I am slowly but surely giving up
on maintaining packages in SVN and, thus I lack the motivation to
maintain the package.


http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/collab-maint/deb-maint/svn-buildpackage/trunk/


Since there are multiple fixes for it and still people are using it
and neither I nor Eduard Bloch had the time to maintain it properly
I have decided is high time for this package to find another dedicated
maintainer.

People interested in maintaining it should be aware that there is a
non-interactive way of running the scripts and these must be kept
functional and there are several ways the scripts bend to accommodate
native and non-native packages. There are some patches in the BTS and
some of the scripts could use some love or maybe a full rewrite once
the bug count lowers.

Since the scripts were written in perl, a perl-er is desirable as a
maintainer (I don't consider myself a perl coder and, as I understood,
Eduard wrote the scripts in his early perl days, so you might expect
some code horror).



I really hope someone will step up fast to take over maintenance,
since this is an important package for many people.



*OTOH, there was a stable release with a long freeze during this time

Changes: 
 svn-buildpackage (0.6.24) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   [ Eduard Bloch ]
   * Changed detection for tarball contents without root directory to identify
     single files, even if mixed with symlinks
   * Use $(MAKE) in Makefile, avoid jobserver warnings with -j
 .
   [ Eddy Petrișor ]
   * updated TODO list
     - removed irrelevant/obsolete entries
     - s-u should be smart wrt origUrl
   * register the howto documents with doc-base (Closes: #451652)
     - added postinst and prerm maintainer scripts as a consequence
   * install svn-do in /usr/bin to be avilable by default; thanks Sean Finney
     for the suggestion (Closes: #464840)
   * svn-inject no longer creates an invalid test file (Closes: 467614)
 .
   [ Damyan Ivanov ]
   * svn-upgrade: Drop "(NOT RELEASED YET)" from the created changelog entry.
     Closes: #487648
   * Move all of build-dependencies except debhelper from D-B to D-B-I
     + replace obsolete tetex-extra with texlive
   * Replace build-dependency on transitional gd-gpl|gs packages with
     ghostscript
   * Fix typo in doc/svn-buildpackage-howto, thanks lintian
   * Change svn-build-package-howto section from non-existent
     Apps/Programming to Debian
 .
   [ Eddy Petrișor ]
   * improved copyright file
 .
   [ Jan Hauke Rahm ]
   * When files are ignored due to subversion ignore patterns the user gets
     prompted to skip or import those files; in noninteractive mode those files
     are automatically skiped unless '--ignored-files-action=import' (only in
     svn-upgrade) is set. (Closes: #504233)
   * Dropping support for linda (Closes: #502653)
   * Correcting typo in svn-buildpackage (Closes: #506426)
   * Let svn-buildpackage not complain about unresolved issues when it's just
     about svn:externals (Closes: #363003, #422342)
   * svn-inject properly tests for executable tempfile (actually closes:
     467614)
   * s-i: return from del_unref if files hash is empty (Closes: #506876,
     #511691)
   * s-b: handle tagsUrl override correctly and don't print nonsense warnings
     (Closes: #480684, #414564)
 .
   [ Eddy Petrișor ]
   * Added a helper script to ease up installation of the build-deps of
     the current source package (Closes: #506965)
   * drop option dbgsdcommon in favour of using $SVNBPPERLLIB for easier
     support for testing and debugging; since this option was hidden, no
     safety nets were provided for the drop
   * fix a bug that prevented execution of shell commands when the hidden
     option ignoreerrors was used; this option is still hidden since is
     not actually working as it should be and will be rethought
   * don't pretend a all commands fail in unknown directories;
     properly fixed #419005 in the way I initially proposed, since the
     way Gonéri proposed was broken in several ways (and I copied that
     without checking) correctly closes: #419005 instead of hiding it
   * add --svn-arch option, thanks to Julien Valroff (Closes: #527302)
 .
   [ Neil Williams ]
   * New maintainer. (Closes: #528733: ITA: svn-buildpackage -- helper
     programs to maintain Debian packages with Subversion)
   * Taking over maintenance, thanks to Eduard Bloch and Eddy Petrișor
     for all their work.
   * Bump compat to 5.
   * Remove bad install rule that resulted in dpkg-getbdeps being made
     into a directory. Use dh_install and install file instead. Fixes
     lintian warning.
   * remove unneeded postinst and prerm as install-docs is handled by
     triggers. Lintian warning.
   * Update standards version (no changes)
   * move dpkg-getbdeps into /usr/share/ as a snippet - not worth
     having in bin/ at this time.
   * Rename debian/NEWS.Debian to debian/NEWS to let it be found by
     dh_installchangelogs (Closes: #516051)
   * Tidy up the build process using the install and dirs files for more
     operations.
   * Let svn-do expose errors returned by svn-buildpackage. Patch from
    Ludovic Rousseau. (Closes: #486819)
   * Add new option: "--svn-moved-to" for build results elsewhere"
     Patch from sean finney. (Closes: #431898)
   * contrib/svn-do : Clarified licence with Loic - use MIT.
   * Modified patch from Ubuntu to ignore empty files with non-zero
     length.
   * Rewrite copyright and add full copyright notices to scripts.
   * Add a basic manpage for svn-do.
