[MIR] uhttpmock

[Jackson Doak]

Availability: The package is in universe and builds one all architectures except ppc64el (patch waiting sponsorship)

Rationale: libuhttpmock-dev is a build-depend of the version of libgdata in -proposed and is needed for it's unit tests to work.

Security/QA: No bugs have been found in debian or ubuntu, upstream and debian both are actively maintained, there are no results in either security tracker

Depends: All are in main

Standards-compliance: All good

Maintenance: Simple package, we can keep in sync. I've not yet found an ubuntu team to "own" the package

Background info: uhttpmock is a HTTP web service mocking project for projects which use libsoup.

(subscribing ubuntu-mir, that was missing there)

Blockers:
- As noted, needs a fix for ppc64el
- Needs a team bug subscriber for whomever will look after this in Ubuntu
- ${gir:Depends} is empty, is there a missing "--with" argument to dh?
- The two following build warnings seem like actual problems. Can I get a comment on why they aren't problems or a fix for them? (Should just be setting a couple NULLs)
libuhttpmock/uhm-server.c: In function 'trace_to_soup_message':
libuhttpmock/uhm-server.c:912:17: warning: 'message' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
  g_object_unref (message);
                 ^
libuhttpmock/uhm-server.c:849:32: warning: 'http_version' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
  soup_message_set_http_version (message, http_version);
                                ^

Other Comments:
- I am not thrilled with this taking the presumably-desirable three-letter namespace uhm, but that was Debian's call
- The lib package should use "Pre-Depends: ${misc:Pre-Depends}"
- The dev package shouldn't ship the .a file, right?
- Would love to see a symbols file, please consider including one
- Love the tests!

These two issues was why i didn't subscribe the mir team yet. I'll look into the other changes in debian

Fixed upstream in commit d35158c3b61d18d04c07fb2ab5535b3e05d778fb. I’ll release a 0.4.0 tonight containing the fix.

[Philip Withnall (drbob)]

Sorry, make that version 0.3.0.

[Jackson Doak (noskcaj)]

Most of the main issues are fixed in the new release. Is the desktop team willing to maintain this as it's libgdata that needs it?

[Michael Terry (mterry)]

Looks good besides the bug subscriber! Just get a team to commit to look after this, and we're good.

[Iain Lane (laney)]

Yeah, desktop team will be happy to do this.

I can't subscribe them myself, but will make sure that it's done. Hopefully you can ack and trust me. :)

[Michael Terry (mterry)]

OK

[Colin Watson (cjwatson)]

Moved to main.
