Dear mentors,

I want to submit **sys-scan-graph** for sponsorship:

 * Package name: sys-scan-graph

 * Upstream contact: Joseph Mazzini (joseph@mazzlabs.works)

 * Version: 5.0.3

 * URL: https://GitHub.com/J-mazz/sys-scan-graph

 * License: Apache-License-Version-2.0

See the public repository for comprehensive documentation.

Thank you for any consideration,
Joseph Mazzini | J-mazz

Please read on how the Debian ITP process works.
You have to file a bug report on wnpp and reference it in your
changelog.

Why are there already several revisions in your debian/changelog?
It should be the latest one only.

It is usually not a good idea to have the debian package in the upstream
source.

Hi,

Adding to Bastian's comments, you can consider maintaining your Debian
packaging on https://salsa.debian.org/  and remove the debian/ folder in
the github upstream. Salsa also makes it easier for your potential
sponsors to make any changes to your packaging before the upload or
perform Non-Maintainer Uploads in case there are any issues with your
packages while you're away.

Dear mentors,

Thank you again for the feedback on the RFS for sys-scan-graph (Bug
#1118151).

I have addressed the points previously raised:

1.  **Separate Packaging Repository:** The Debian packaging files have been
moved out of the upstream source repository and are now maintained
separately here:
    * `https://github.com/J-mazz/sys-scan-debian_package`
<https://github.com/J-mazz/sys-scan-debian_package>

2.  **Changelog:** The `debian/changelog` file has been corrected to
contain only the entry for the initial release (`6.0.0-1`), and it now
references the ITP bug #1118151.

For further context on the package:

* **Upstream Source Repository:** The main C++ scanner and Python agent
source code resides at:
    * `https://github.com/J-mazz/sys-scan-graph`
<https://github.com/J-mazz/sys-scan-graph>
* **PyPI Package:** The Python intelligence layer component is also
available on PyPI under the name `sys-scan-agent`. The Debian package will
ensure correct integration and dependency handling within the Debian
ecosystem.
* **User Interface:** The primary user interface is command-line based. The
Python intelligence layer can generate comprehensive, self-contained HTML
reports for visualizing scan results and analysis. There is also a separate
GTKmm-based graphical UI (`sys-scan-ui`) in development:
    * `https://github.com/J-mazz/sys-scan-ui`
<https://github.com/J-mazz/sys-scan-ui>
    * This UI interacts with the `sys-scan-agent` via IPC (multiprocessing
queues) and allows users to view findings and provide feedback.
    * **Packaging Plan:** To keep the core `sys-scan-graph` package focused
and lightweight, the plan is to package `sys-scan-ui` separately *after*
the core package has been accepted into Debian. This current RFS pertains
only to the core `sys-scan-graph` (CLI scanner and Python agent).

I am awaiting approval to salsa.debian.org. Once complete, I will move the
Debian package source there.

Regards,

Joseph Mazzini

Hello,

This email provides an update for the Intent to Package report,
Bug#1118183, concerning sys-scan-graph.

I have successfully migrated the project's source repository to Debian's
Salsa platform. The new canonical Git repository URL is now:

https://salsa.debian.org/J-mazz/sys-scan-graph.git

Please use this location for all future reference regarding the packaging
of this software.

Thank you,
Joseph Mazzini

Are you still working on this? The git repo is scheduled for removal...

Yes, I am still working on this,
I tried to revert the scheduled deletion. It's current on GitHub.
The embedded agent is a work in progress, I originally used a llama-3 model
that did not meet DFSG I have limited compute & time but I will add finish
feature soon.

Dear Mentors,

I am writing to formally request that my contact email address for this
Intent to Package be updated to joseph@mazzlabs.works; please utilize this
address for all future correspondence regarding this submission and the
associated package maintenance.

I have pushed the latest upstream source code revisions to the primary
repository located at https://salsa.debian.org/J-mazz/sys-scan-graph. This
update notably integrates both a fine-tuned ML feature and a Qt-based
Graphical User Interface; this interface is designed to facilitate
Human-in-the-Loop (HitL) functionality, allowing for interactive user
oversight during the scanning process.

The specific Debian packaging files continue to be maintained in their
dedicated repository at
https://salsa.debian.org/J-mazz/sys-scan-debian_package.

In support of the package's machine learning capabilities, I have also
uploaded the model fine-tuning workflows and synthetic dataset curation
scripts to https://salsa.debian.org/J-mazz/sys-scan-agent_MLops.git. The
specific dataset utilized for this implementation has been published to the
Hugging Face hub at
https://huggingface.co/datasets/jmazz/sys-scan_synthetic_dataset_v2 to
ensure transparency and reproducibility of the model's behavior.

Thank you for your attention to these updates.
