-To fix
-======
+ TODO
+ ====
+
+================================================================================
More Urgent
-----------
- o katie/jenna/rhona/whatever needs to clear out .changes
- files from p-u when removing stuff superseded by newer versions.
+ o Lisa:
+ * installing into stable
+ * priority >> optional
+ * arch != {any,all}
+ * build-depends wrong (via andrea)
+ * suid
+ * conficlits
+ * notification/stats to admin daily
+
+ o DONE
+
+ o stable installs are FUBAR
+ o clean fingerprint
+ o fix up cron.weekly and/or shania
- o rewrite shania to a) be sane, b) clean REJECT properly
- (i.e. ignore the fact that stuff is in a valid .changes file and
- just clean the mofo)
+ o Fix BTS vs. katie sync issues by queueing(via BSMTP) BTS mail so
+ that it can be released on deman (e.g. ETRN to exim).
+ o write our own locking module or in some other way fix things so we
+ don't require a patch to python since upstream refuse to fix it.
+
o maintainers file needs overrides
[ change override.maintainer to override.maintainer-from +
table. Then fix charisma to use them and write some scripting
to handle the Santiago situation. ]
- o Fix binary-only NMU handling for non-zero uploads
+ o (Depends) <aj> elmo: it should match \(\s*(<<|<|<=|=|>=|>|>>)\s*<VERSIONREGEXP>\) fwiw
-Less Urgent
------------
+ o Clean up DONE; archive to tar file every 2 weeks, update tar tvzf INDEX file.
- * Harder:
-
- o override checks sucks; it needs to track changes made by the
- maintainer and pass them onto ftpmaster instead of warning the
- maintainer.
- o need to do proper rfc822 escaping of from lines (as opposed to s/\.//g)
- o when dinstall is run in install mode but not as a cron job, it
- should probably run jenna to avoid madison originated user confusion
- o Revisit linking of binary->source in install() in katie.
- o Fix component handling in overrides (aj)
- o Fix lack of entires in source overrides (aj)
- o direport misreports things as section 'devel'
-
- * Easy:
-
- o utils.extract_component_from_section: main/utils -> main/utils, main rather than utils, main
- o Fix katie to remove != stable on stable install, not just f + u
- o Fix katie to warn if run when not in incoming or p-u
- o check for empty debs; check for empty (or small (<1k ?)) .tar.gz's.
- o katie should validate multi-suite uploads; only possible valid one
- is "stable unstable"
- o Don't do override checks for stable only uploads
- o cron.daily* should change umask (aj sucks)
- o Rene doesn't look at debian-installer but should.
-
- * Bizzare:
-
- o Fix rhona to unconditionally read override file on startup (huh? no override reading at all!)
- o validate source consistency, i.e. .dsc and .tar.gz as minimum (??)
- o Rene also doesn't seem to warn about missing binary packages (??)
-
- * Cleanups & misc:
-
- o db_access' get_files needs to use exceptions not this None, > 0, < 0 return val BS (?)
- o The untouchable flag doesn't stop new packages being added to ``untouchable'' suites
- o jenna is too slow
- o jenna doesn't handle arch: any -> arch: all transitions
- [aj worked around; need to revisit]
+ o testing-updates suite: if binary-only and version << version in
+ unstable and source-ver ~= source-ver in testing; then map
+ unstable -> testing-updates ?
-===================================================================================================
+ o [Hard] dependency checking (esp. stable) (partially done)
-TODO
-====
+ o hooks for debian specific checks (e.g. check_urgency)
-More Urgent
------------
-
- o katie needs a stable_reject() which a) removes the package from
- p-u, b) doesn't remove the file from the pool, and c) (optionally, I
- guess) uses a template mail.
+ o Logging [mostly done]
- o [Complexish] Secure incoming handling
- o [Hard] dependency checking (esp. stable)
- o Logging
o Abstraction of suite hardcoding (q.v. progengy)
-Packaging
----------
+ o morgue needs auto-cleaning (?)
- o Install python libraries (db_access and utils)
- o Install config file
- o Fix stuff to look in sensible places for libs and config file in debian package (?)
- o man pages and/or documentation
- o debian/* assumes arch: all but sql-aptvc.o isn't arch: all.
+================================================================================
Less Urgent
-----------
- o fernanda: print_copyright should be a lot more intelligent
+ o reverse of source-must-exist; i.e. binary-for-source-must-not-exist
+ o REJECT reminders in shania.
+ o fernanda should check for conflicts and warn about them visavis priority [rmurray]
+ o store a list of removed/files versions; also compare against them.
+ [but be careful about scalability]
+
+ o fernanda: print_copyright should be a lot more intelligent
@ handle copyright.gz
@ handle copyright.ja and copyright
@ handle (detect at least) symlinks to another package's doc directory
- @ handle and/or fall back on source files?
- @ check only NEW packages out of a source package with some NEW, some old
- @ check latest version if given multiples!
+ @ handle and/or fall back on source files (?)
o To incorporate from utils:
@ unreject
- @ genreport
- @ reject
- @ newchanges
o katie could vrfy email addresses (?) [errge@]
o auto-purge out-of-date stuff from non-free/contrib so that testing and stuff works
o doogie's binary -> source index
- o ANAIS should be done in katie (?)
- o Add an 'add' ability to melanie (? separate prog maybe)
o Add urgency + installed date to the DB for aj/testing (? still needed ?)
o jt's web stuff, matt's changelog stuff (overlap)
- o [Hard] Need to merge non-non-US and non-US DBs. (Need to upgrade to 7.1 for SSL)
+ o [Hard] Need to merge non-non-US and non-US DBs.
- o experimental needs to auto clean (relative to unstable) [warns in rene about this]
+ o experimental needs to auto clean (relative to unstable) [partial: rene warns about this]
o Do a checkpc(1)-a-like which sanitizes a config files.
o fix parse_changes()/build_file_list() to sanity check filenames
o saftey check and/or rename debs so they match what they should be
- o Enable catherine (when daily mirror hit drops down below 300Mb maybe..)
o Improve andrea.
o Need to optimize all the queries by using EXAMINE and building some INDEXs.
o Need to enclose all the setting SQL stuff in transactions (mostly done).
o Need to finish alyson (a way to sync katie.conf and the DB)
o Need the ability to rebuild all other tables from dists _or_ pools (in the event of disaster) (?)
o Make the --help and --version options do stuff for all scripts
- o Need to check for .dsc when source is mentioned
o charisma can't handle whitespace-only lines (for the moment, this is feature)
- o Should use $EDITOR, not hardcode vi
- o Should reject packages with bad timestamps
- o Replicate old dinstall report stuff (? needed ?)
- o Handle the case of 1:1.1 which would overwrite 1.1 (?)
- o aj's binary-all stuff (foo-doc depending on foo) (?)
- o heidi should report suite name not ID [aj]
o generic way of saying isabinary and isadsc. (?)
o s/distribution/suite/g

+ o cron.weekly:
+ @ weekly postins to d-c (?)
+ @ backup of report (?)
+ @ backup of changes.tgz (?)
+
+ * Harder:
+
+ o override checks sucks; it needs to track changes made by the
+ maintainer and pass them onto ftpmaster instead of warning the
+ maintainer.
+ o need to do proper rfc822 escaping of from lines (as opposed to s/\.//g)
+ o when dinstall is run in install mode but not as a cron job, it
+ should probably run jenna to avoid madison originated user confusion
+ o Revisit linking of binary->source in install() in katie.
+ o Fix component handling in overrides (aj)
+ o Fix lack of entires in source overrides (aj)
+ o direport misreports things as section 'devel'
+ o vrfy check of every Maintainer+Changed-By address; valid for 3 months.
+ o binary-all should be done on a per-source, per-architecture package
+ basis to avoid, e.g. the perl-modules problem.
+ o a source-missing-diff check: if the version has a - in it, and it
+ is sourceful, it needs orig and diff, e.g. if someone uploads
+ esound_0.2.22-6, and it is sourceful, and there is no diff ->
+ REJECT (version has a dash, therefore not debian native.)
+ o check linking of .tar.gz's to .dsc's.. see proftpd 1.2.1 as an example
+ o archive needs md5sum'ed regularly, but takes too long to do all
+ in one go; make progressive or weekly.
+ o katie/jenna/rhona/whatever needs to clear out .changes
+ files from p-u when removing stuff superseded by newer versions.
+ [but for now we have halle]
+ o test sig checking stuff in test/ (stupid thing is not modularized)
+ o when encountering suspicous things (e.g. file tainting) do something more drastic
+
+ * Easy:
+
+ o Rationalize config stuff.. Dir::Foo not Dir::FooDir [breaks other people??]
+ o melanie should behave better with -a and without -b; see
+ gcc-defaults removal for an example.
+ o Reject on misconfigured kernel-package uploads
+ o denise abuses sys.stdout == badly
+ o utils.extract_component_from_section: main/utils -> main/utils, main rather than utils, main
+ o Fix katie to warn if run when not in incoming or p-u
+ o check for empty debs; check for empty (or small (<1k ?)) .tar.gz's.
+ o katie should validate multi-suite uploads; only possible valid one
+ is "stable unstable"
+ o cron.daily* should change umask (aj sucks)
+ o Rene doesn't look at debian-installer but should.
+ o Rene needs to check for binary-less source packages.
+ o Rene could accept a suite argument (?)
+ o run shania every day (?) [ryan]
+ o we don't check for .orig.tar.gz's, so it's possible to upload -2 with no .orig.tar.gz.
+ o byhand stuff should send notification
+ o catherine should udpate db; move files, not the other way around [neuro]
+ o melanie should update the stable changelog [joey]
+ o update tagdb.dia
+
+ * Bizzare/uncertain:
+
+ o validate source consistency, i.e. .dsc and .tar.gz as minimum (??)
+ o Rene also doesn't seem to warn about missing binary packages (??)
+ o jenna should not delete things because they don't exist (?)
+ o logging: hostname + pid ?
+ o ANAIS should be done in katie (?)
+ o Add an 'add' ability to melanie (? separate prog maybe)
+ o Replicate old dinstall report stuff (? needed ?)
+ o Handle the case of 1:1.1 which would overwrite 1.1 (?)
+
+ * Cleanups & misc:
+
+ o db_access' get_files needs to use exceptions not this None, > 0, < 0 return val BS (?)
+ o The untouchable flag doesn't stop new packages being added to ``untouchable'' suites
+ o jenna is too slow
+ o jenna doesn't handle arch: any -> arch: all transitions
+ [aj worked around; need to revisit]
+
+ * Stable:
+
+<neuro> well, there's one other thing that doesn't work so well
+<neuro> you probably should have stable_install ignore Closes:
+<neuro> or it might be unique to the case of stable unstable uploads
