[needs-packaging] gnocky

[Matthias Mailänder]

Gnocky is a mobile phone manager that let's you edit your cellphone addressbook, send SMS and draw a new logo. It is a GTK GUI for libgnokii.

Notes: http://packages.ubuntu.com/gnokii is already in universe. Project has been revived lately: http://unmaintained-free-software.org/wiki/Gnocky

[Matthias Mailänder (mailaender)]

I decided to contribute directly to Debian: http://mentors.debian.net/cgi-bin/sponsor-pkglist?action=details;package=gnocky

[Matthias Mailänder (mailaender)]

I fixed the linthian errors: $(MAKE) distclean and dependencies / build-dependencies but still have trouble to get the gnocky.desktop file into the GNOME menu.

[Matthias Mailänder (mailaender)]

The package did not even build at Debian testing at that time, my version of linthian too old and the package full of flaws. The directory at Debian Mentors is now empty, maybe because I uploaded it >1 year ago.

[Matthias Mailänder (mailaender)]

I created a new package and uploaded it to my PPA at https://launchpad.net/~mailaender/+archive/ppa REVU is currently offline.

[Matthias Mailänder (mailaender)]

next try on REVU: http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/gnocky

[Matthias Mailänder (mailaender)]

The package is now lintian clean.

[Matthias Mailänder (mailaender)]

I uploaded at http://mentors.debian.net/cgi-bin/maintainer-packages?action=details;package=gnocky

[João Pinto (joaopinto)]

I am unable to check the package from mentors, the following message is shown:
"It appears like this package is not owned by you."

[Matthias Mailänder (mailaender)]

Better get the Ubuntu version from http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/gnocky

[Matthias Mailänder (mailaender)]

The Debian version is available at http://mentors.debian.net/cgi-bin/sponsor-pkglist?action=details;package=gnocky

I'll mark this bug as invalid, because gnocky development is stopped. Please reopen this bugs, if there are new releases. Thank you!
