Subject: O: binstats -- Statistics tool for installed programs

Date: Mon, 24 Jan 2005 18:26:31 +0100

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

This package is not updated since 4 years ago. I orphan this package.

Angel Ramos

The package description is:
 A utility to aid the tidying up of binaries, interpreted scripts, and
 dynamic libraries.  It can find the number and identity of a.out and
 ELF binaries, plus their debugging symbols status, setuid status, and
 dynamic library dependence.  It can count the number of Java bytecode
 programs, tally up the main types of scripts, and look for unidentified
executable text files.
 
 Also it is able to find any duplicated executable names, unused
 libraries, binaries with missing libraries, statically linked
binaries, and duplicated manual page names.

Subject: removal judgement for binstats

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi Javier

I'm currently in the process of going over all the packages owned by the
Debian QA Team and evaluate which ones are still usefull and wich ones
should be removed.

Below you find my report about binstats. Your package makejail depends
on binstats and I wanted to ask you if you would like to adopt it.

  binstats |     1.08-6 |      unstable | source, all

Usefullness:
some people are using it, one package depends on it. Despite being dead
upstream this script seems to be somewhat usefull

Conclusion:
Ask Javier if he wants to adopt it, because makejail depends on it.

Let me review the current status. I will probably adopt it.

Thanks for the info.

Closes: 146465 218647 292019
Changes: 
 binstats (1.08-7) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Adopting this package, as makejail Depends: on it (Closes: #292019)
   * Updated Standard-Versions:
     * Adjusted CFLAGS and LDFLAGS in debian/rules just in case
       the binaries are built again
     * Fixed binary-arch for the same reason, althoug the package remains
       Arch: all
   * Quote readlink calls (Closes: #218647)
   * Add the package to the unused library list (Closes: #146465)
   * Add a check to review which of the packages holding unused libraries
     are not used at all.
   * Redirect error output of the find call to /dev/null (in case it
     finds dangling symlinks)
   * Use mktemp instead of mkdir to prevent a race condition
   * Change the script so BSLOG and BSLOGTMP are created before they are
     used, this does not prevent some race conditions so don't run
     this script in untrusted directories.
   * Remove debugging output in Makefile, if present
