Marcus was so kind to create a new top-level project: utilities
I requested (*) such a project because there wasn't any appropriate place to maintain packages of command-line utilities, such as cpipe, mlocate, lockrun, likwid, pfm, pv, ttyrec, ack, calcurse, cdu, clpbar, cpuid, di, dtach, gcp, jobqueue, ts, mguesser, ncdu, nkmkpassword, pipemeter, progress, rand, rlwrap, tmux, xjobs, waitfor, ..... (just throwing a few I have in the queue for that project).
I would like to move following packages from Base:System there (then changedevelrequest)
- less
- pinfo
- lsof
Really? Why not keep them in Base:System? (at least less and lsof) Hm.. we might have a need to clarify the difference between Base:System and utilities then, because I'm still a bit confused -- but maybe that's just me :)))
Next, these package from Contrib
- ack [*]
- calcurse [**]
- devtodo
- remind
- urlview
- vifm
- wyrd
Keep'em coming :) Anyhow, if anyone wants to help maintaining utilities, please poke. I don't want to be the bottleneck here :)
Afterwards, I would submit these to Factory and delete from Contrib.
Objections?
[*] ack is also in your list. I checked the differences between Contrib/ack and your version - the Contrib (originally based on your package) is newer (git snapshot) and has a patch to ignore .osc files. If it goes to Factory, I think it should be stable version (1.92), so I suggest you to submit your package and will add stuff from Contrib/ack later.
Ok, I already moved ack from my home to utilities, and I'll merge the patch from Contrib myself later tonight.
Oh, and ack depends on perl-File-Next, which is not in Factory. I will update the package in devel:languages:perl and submit to Factory.
I made a _link from devel:languages:perl to utilities as well.
[**] Your calcurse package looks better, so let's just submit your version to Factory (FWIW I could be (co)maintainer if needed) and delete the one from Contrib.
Ok, I moved it from my home to utilities, and added you as a maintainer.
Does it make sense?
