Hey,

It is only the two example scripts, that are not properly ported to Python 3.

With a big warning in the top of the file:
 # Use only if absolutely necessary.  It is *very* inefficient and
 # a security risk.

This was fixed upstream, but they not have released a new version.

Regards,

hefee

Why do you insist on keeping broken packages in Debian?

Sorry.  What's the less offensice way to describe broken and untested?

You are installing known broken examples in $PATH? But why????!

Well, whatever.  Thanks for not caring about quality


Bjørn

Hey,

because pysrs is more than these two scripts - the core part is the python
library supporting handle SRS.

Just telling it is broken is fine. But saying it is crap and ask directly for
removal is offensive.

I try not to ship broken packages on purpose, but I'm just a human make
mistakes and don't have the time to test everything.

I start asking upstream to create a new version in order to get a fixed package
in Debian soon.

regards

Please read the subject and/or "Package" field before replying.  This is
what I reported as broken:

 Package: pysrs-bin
 Version: 1.0.3-2
 Severity: grave
 Justification: renders package unusable


The bug report is against pysrs-bin. This package contains nothing but
those two "examples":

bjorn@miraculix:~$ apt-file show pysrs-bin
pysrs-bin: /usr/bin/envfrom2srs
pysrs-bin: /usr/bin/srs2envtol
pysrs-bin: /usr/share/doc/pysrs-bin/NEWS.Debian.gz

pysrs-bin: /usr/share/man/man1/srs2envtol.1.gz

Sure.  Which is one of the reasons I did NOT say that it is crap. I find
your usage of such straw-man arguments extremely offensive.  "crap" is
your description and yours only.

Your package is broken. It contains nothing but two broken scripts.
This is a simple fact and I don't know how else to express it.

"Untested" is my assumption only. and I should probably not have made
that.  But it's really an assumption of good faith in this context.  The
only alternative I see is that you're packaging known failing scripts.

Removal of a package conaining ONLY broken scripts and nothing else is a
no-brainer.  It's Debian policy.

I do not have time to install, test and then remove broken packages.
Assumng that I and other Debian users should do testing for you is
arrogant.  Your time is not worth more than mine.

Reporting this bug wasted even more time.  I did that to help other
Debian users avoid the same problem.  Your package is a policy
violation. You have so far not done anything to fix that, which is
very disappointing.
