[Artur Rona (ari-tczew)]

@Chris, are you working on alarm-clock? If not, I'll make package. I want to got alarm-clock 1.2.2 in karmic before FFe.

[Chris Coulson (chrisccoulson)]

Feel free to take this one. I've got other stuff that I need to work on at the moment.

[Artur Rona (ari-tczew)]

I made package, it builds fine on my-ppa.
https://edge.launchpad.net/~ari-tczew/+archive/ppa/+build/1170417/+files/buildlog_ubuntu-karmic-i386.alarm-clock_1.2.2-0ubuntu1~ppa0_FULLYBUILT.txt.gz

alarm-clock (1.2.2-0ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low

  * New upstream release (LP: #400605):
    - Use GtkBuilder instead libglade (LP: #375952)
    - No longer code in python (LP: #321795)
  * Merge debian-dir from 1.2.1-1 (unstable), remaining changes:
    - Drop libglade2-dev from Build-Depends, no longer needed.
    - Add README.source to fix lintian warning.

[Julien Lavergne (gilir)]

Thanks for your work. Some comments :
* Please forward the changes you made on debian/ to Debian to let the package in sync with Debian.
* bug 375952 is not relative to the use of GtkBuilder. It shouldn't be close like this.
* bug 321795 should not be close like this. you should try to reproduce the bug with the new version and with the reporter of the bug. Changing the language doesn't mean the bug is gone.

[Chris Coulson (chrisccoulson)]

Also, did you have to repack the tar.bz2 from the alarm-clock website? (I didn't find a tar.gz available there) If so, it would be good to share the tar.gz with Debian to make the packages sync-able.

Thanks

[Artur Rona (ari-tczew)]

Julien says: "bug 321795 should not be close like this. you should try to reproduce the bug with the new version and with the reporter of the bug."
I guess that it's no need reproduce, because alarm-clock 1.2.2 isn't wroted in python.

[Ryan Niebur (ryan52)]

hi guys. thanks much for your work on this! I will integrate it into Debian, and then during the next Ubuntu release cycle I will request a sync. Sorry that this didn't get into Karmic in time.

[Artur Rona (ari-tczew)]

Removed my package from attachments, subscribing motu-release to waiting for ACK FFe.

[Andrea Veri (av)]

Which kind of tests have you done with this package? was it completely working on karmic?
unsubscribing u-u-s, motu-release will process your request.

[Ryan Niebur (ryan52)]

note that this is a complete rewrite...

[Nathan Handler (nhandler)]

I am setting this bug to 'Incomplete' until details about the tests performed are provided. As Ryan said, this was a complete rewrite, so we want to make sure that there are no regressions or other serious issues.

[Artur Rona (ari-tczew)]

Test start work on bug #425163

[Ryan Niebur (ryan52)]

new version (1.2.3-2) fixing #425163 uploaded to Debian.

[Artur Rona (ari-tczew)]

Now 1.2.3-2 can be sync from Debian unstable. Bug #425163 has been fixed.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

This seems to be a complete rewrite (Python -> C), which is usually the "bad" direction in terms of program stability and crashes. What's the convincing benefit of getting this into karmic at this time?

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

Package is in universe, just leaving motu-release subscribed.

[StefanPotyra (sistpoty)]

While you can write bad code in any language, I've taken a glimpse at the new code. This makes me sceptical:
src/counters.c, function counters_accept:
 char buffer[30];
        [..]
 strftime(buffer, 40, "%Y", localtime(&curtime));

so -1 from me for karmic, as I believe that pitti's assumption might be correct.

[Iulian Udrea (iulian)]

Nack from me too. This will be automatically synced.

Marking as Won't Fix.
