Sorry, for the late reply, it looks like the e-mail got buried under
the hundreds of mail I received.

Yes, it does appear that it is required by GeanyGenDoc, and I've taken
a look at the package though I can't upload it. Some comments:

 * Please don't run autogen.sh, the configure script itself looks
   sufficient. Your debian/rules should just have the %: rule, then.
 * The stuff in README.Debian should be in README.source, but with
   reference to the previous point, please remove it.
 * With reference to the first point, please also drop
   autoconf/automake dependencies, but keep autotools-dev for
   config.guess and config.sub.
 * Drop debian/*.dirs, they're unnecessary.
 * Drop lintian-overrides, that's also unnecessary.

I'm CC-ing Evgeni; he sponsors my geany-plugins packages and I'm sure
he'd be interested to look at ctpl, especially if there will be no
geany-plugins 0.19 binaries without ctpl. ;-)

Hi,

Thank you for your comments!
I've followed all of your hints even if I'm very surprised that the advices
from autotools-dev should no more be taken into account.
New version available at the same URLs (no debian version bump as it didn't get
upladed before).

CC-ing you and our providential sponsor as I don't know whether you are
subscribed to bug report or not.

The configure script and provided Makefile.in's should be used if
possible, failing which autoconf/automake should be run to re-build
these. For packages which are properly created via "make distcheck"
that don't have any patches that touch the Makefile.am/configure.ac
files, you shouldn't regenerate the configure and Makefile.in files
using the method you used.

The advice in autotools-dev is only for the proper way of going about
regenerating these files, in the event that you've made changes that
need to be propagated over.

Subject: ctpl version 0.3 available at m.d.n

Date: Sun, 17 Oct 2010 22:35:29 +0200

Hi,

I've just uploaded a new package of ctpl on debian-mentors.
It involves version 0.3, which introduces an ABI / API break. I've managed this
the best way I can for now, but I'm not sure whether this is correct, especially
for the symbols file.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/ctpl
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main
contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/ctpl/ctpl_0.3-1.dsc

Kind Regards

Hi !

Yet another release, yet another package.
I've just uploaded ctpl 0.3.1 on m.d.n.

This is just a "small" release, i.e. no break and nothing problematic.

@Bhavani Shankar: I've seen you uploaded the 0.3 version in natty, so I'm
thinking you may be interested by this news. You have been CC'ed as such.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:

Hi Johnathan,

I can't sponsor your package (I've already uploaded 0.3.2 to Ubuntu though), but
I'd like to drop a few notes from what I've noticed while bringing ctpl up to
date in Ubuntu.

1. libctpl2.symbols should not be copied from libctpl1.symbols. This is because
libctpl1.symbols was for libctpl.so.1, but libctpl2.symbols is for libctpl.so.2.
If you have a symbol that's versioned 0.2, for example, then what could happen
is that you get a package that depends on libctpl2 (>= 0.2), but libctpl2 did
not exist prior to 0.3, when the SONAME bump took place.

2. Evgeni mentioned this to me sometime back, but I'm not sure if the message
reached you -- static libraries shouldn't be packaged at all, so please drop
/usr/lib/lib*.a from libctpl-dev.install

3. ctpl is only built if gio-2.0 >= 2.24 is found, and gio-2.0 is part of
libglib2.0-dev, so you'll need to bump the version for that in the build-dep to
2.24 rather than leaving it at 2.16.

4. Why are you build-dep'ing on libglib2.0-doc? I'm not sure whether this is
really needed.

5. Drop the libctpl2 depends from ctpl in debian/control. dh_shlibdeps will pick
it up on its own, with a more accurate dependency.

6. I'm not sure why libctpl-doc recommends libglib2.0-doc. Is that really necessary?

Apart from that, I think the package looks fine :-)

This may sound as duplicate work, but as I'm quite new to packaging so this way
I learn a lot more. I don't know however whether this will make conflicts at
Ubuntu sync time… in case this package get uploaded to main Debian.

Understood and done.

Done. Effectivly I didn't know about that before.

Done too. Was a oops.

This is needed so that gtk-doc can create links to glib's pages in the html
documentation . As libctpl heavily uses glib types and facilities I thought
that this will greatly improve the doc's usability.

Okay, done.

This is related to 4). If we link to glib's doc, it's recommended (but not
absolutely necessary) that libglib2.0-doc be installed.

Thanks! I'm waiting for Squeeze's release and end of deep freeze to seek for a
sponsor.

It shouldn't conflict. The Ubuntu packages have a version of a.b.c-XubuntuY,
where a.b.c-X is the Debian version it is based on. The ctpl package I have
uploaded has a version 0.3.2-0ubuntu1, which can be superseded by the Debian
version at any point in the future. If there is a need to preserve a delta
against your package, then we'll just merge it into the new version, yielding
something like 0.3.2-1ubuntu1.

Oh, I see, so the links aren't hardcoded in the generated docs? I thought they were.

Hi Jonathan,

first of all a HUGE sorry for not mailing you about ctpl before. Yes, I
still want to upload it, and I think we can manage it in a breeze. :)

Your symbols update looks good (as far as I can tell).
Lintian told me (with --pedantic), that the packages did not have an
upstream changelog and looking at the upstream tarball it seems the
changelog is in "NEWS" for upstream, thus I added the following to
debian/rules:
override_dh_installchangelogs:
	dh_installchangelogs NEWS

packaging-wise this is the only change I'd do before uploading, so you
did a really good job here!

I'd like to "discuss" some orga stuff before uploading though.
ctpl is currently only needed for geany-plugins (in which you are
interested IIRC). Thus I'd like to suggest you join pkg-geany on Alioth
[1], we put your package into Git there and maintain with three pairs of
eyes for two distributions from there. Oh, and I promise to upload fast
from now on :)

okay, I've "started" git packaging at
http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-geany/packages/ctpl.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/debian

basicly thats Loong Jin's ubuntu repository with your and my latest changes.

if you use IRC, come over to #geany on freenode and ping hyperair and
Zhenech :)
if not, start reading git-buildpackage's docs and throw us your
questions via mail.

regards and thanks for your work

Hi,

No problem for the delay. I was just a little fearing duplicate effort.
As you can see on the ITP Chow Loong Jin already uploaded to ubuntu and
corrected my package, so if the quality is high it's also thanks to him!

About the NEWS / Changelog issue we discussed at that time (with upstream, he
is a friend of mine) but concluded that the shipped NEWS was no true changelog
as it is expected to be (in whatever reference we found) so I decided to let it
as NEWS. If you think its worth as changelog, why not!

Your orga stuff sounds pretty good to me. I was always lacking some git to
update the package, for example to write the changelog a git diff is really
interesting. Of course you will have to cope with a complete noob on alioth
but I will try to avoid breaking thinks too quickly... 

I will ask for membership on the link you provided just now.

Thanks,
