  • Re: Orphaning mu-editor, firmware-microbit-micropython, and their (buil

    From Hans-Christoph Steiner@21:1/5 to All on Fri Apr 19 17:50:01 2024
    Hey Nick,

    Thanks for maintaining mu-editor, my kids are just getting started with it. So I might be interested in taking it over. Are the updates a lot of work? I see the tarball is tagged with dfsg so there's that...

    .hc

    Nick Morrott:
    Dear team,

    I intend to orphan two of my team maintained packages, and their
    several (build)-dependencies, that I originally packaged and have
    maintained (to varying degrees, it can be argued) since 2018. Thank
    you to team members who have contributed bug fixes and patches during
    this time. I've really appreciated it \o/.

    I don't have (and have not had for a while) the time to maintain all
    of these, so to free them up for more active development following new releases I would like to offer these to other members of the team to
    pick up if interested. Apologies for holding up any progress; I should
    have done this a while ago...

    I am the only Uploader on all of the packages below. If anyone is
    interested, please take over and replace me as the Uploader.

    If no one has added themselves as an uploader in Salsa within two
    weeks to any of the packages below, I will formally orphan them:

    mu-editor (new 1.2.0 version to be packaged)
    python-uflash (build dep, dep, new version to be packaged with mu-editor) python-nudatus (build dep, dep, up to date)
    python-pytest-random-order (build dep, up to date)
    python-guizero (dep, up to date)

    firmware-microbit-micropython (new 1.1.1 version to be packaged)
    yotta (build dep, up to date)
    valinor (build dep, up to date)
    python-project-generator (build dep, up to date) python-project-generator-definitions (build dep, up to date) mbed-test-wrapper (build dep, up to date)
    python-mbed-host-tests (build dep, up to date)
    python-mbed-ls (build dep, up to date)
    python-hgapi (build dep, up to date)

    I will also remove myself as an uploader on pytest-xvfb (leaving one
    other), which is a build-dep of python-guizero.

    With all thanks,
    Nick

    Now Keith can rebase his changes unto that.

    My changes involve stripping the non-DFSG elements out of the package,
    and that requires shipping a non-upstream .tar.gz file for the source
    archive. Because of that, I'm using a pure git process and not bothering
    to generate pristine tar bits -- there's no usable upstream tarball
    anyways.

    I'm willing to continue to maintain this package using that process, but
    I don't really have any interest in using the existing python packagers
    process because I don't think it applies in this case.
