-Evil new incoming!
-==================
+ TODO
+ ====
-To recheck in kate:
+[NB: I use this as a thought record/scribble, not everything on here
+ makes sense and/or is actually ever going to get done, so IIWY I
+ wouldn't use it as gospel for the future of katie or as a TODO
+ list for random hacking.]
- o source still exists - code
- o in override - code
- o binary version >> current - code
- o binary file not in archive - code
- o source version >> current - code
- o source file not in archive - code
- o md5sum/size mismatch - code
+================================================================================
-TO CHECK:
--=-=-=-=-
+queue/approved
+--------------
- (o) unchecked (jennifer):
- o - accept 'runs'
- o - new 'runs'
- o - new dependent 'runs'
- o - byhand 'runs'
- o - byhand dependent 'runs'
- o - new + byhand 'runs'
- o - new + byhand dependent 'runs'
- o - reject 'runs'
- (o) byhand (lisa):
- o - accept 'runs'
- o - accept dependent 'runs'
- o - reject 'runs'
- (o) new (lisa):
- o - accept 'runs'
- o - accept dependent 'runs'
- o - reject 'runs'
- o - byhand 'runs'
- (o) accepted (katie):
- o - accept 'runs'
- o - unaccept code
+ o What to do with multi-suite uploads? Presumably hold in unapproved
+ and warn? Or what? Can't accept just for unstable or reject just
+ from stable.
+ o Whenever we check for anything in accepted we also need to check in
+ unapproved.
-TODO:
--=-=-
+ o non-sourceful uploads should go straight through if they have
+ source in accepted or the archive.
- o DONE
+ o security uploads on auric should be pre-approved.
-[Final stuff]
-------------
-[Can be done later]
--------------------
+Others
+------
- o when encountering suspicous things (e.g. file tainting) do something more drastic
+ o use postgres 7.2's built-in stat features to figure out how indices are used etc.
- o test the REJECT paranoia stuff (katie.force_move())
+ o neve shouldn't be using location, she should run down suites instead
- o Go through each check validate in new setup
+ o halle needs to know about udebs
- o still not good crash-handling behaviour, too often end up with
- bogus rejects afterwards...
+ o by default hamstring katie's mail sending so that she won't send
+ anything until someone edits a script; she's been used far too
+ much to send spam atm :(
- o stable installs are FUBAR
+ o $ftpdir/indices isn't created by rose because it's not in katie.conf
-==========================================================================
+ o sanity check depends/recommends/suggests too? in fact for any
+ empty field?
+[minor] kelly's copychanges, copykatie handling sucks, the per-suite
+ thing is static for all packages, so work out in advance dummy.
-To fix
-======
+[madison] # filenames ?
+[madison] # maintainer, component, install date (source only?), fingerprint?
-More Urgent
------------
+ o UrgencyLog stuff should minimize it's bombing out(?)
+ o Log stuff should open the log file
+
+ o [melanie] bomb out if a) no '[rene]' in the -m/--message, and b)
+ no other -d/--done or -C/--carbon-copy
+
+ o helena should footnote the actual notes, and also * the versions
+ with notes so we can see new versions since being noted...
+
+ o helena should have alternative sorting options, including reverse
+ and without or without differentiaion.
+
+ o julia should sync debadmin and ftpmaster (?)
+
+ o <drow> Can't read file.:
+ /org/security.debian.org/queue/accepted/accepted/apache-perl_1.3.9-14.1-1.21.20000309-1_sparc.katie.
+ You assume that the filenames are relative to accepted/, might want
+ to doc or fix that.
+
+ o <neuro> the orig was in NEW, the changes that caused it to be NEW
+ were pulled out in -2, and we end up with no orig in the archive
+ :(
+
+ o SecurityAcceptedAutoBuild doesn't handle the case of foo_3.3woody1
+ with a new .orig.tar.gz followed by a foo_3.3potato1 with the same
+ .orig.tar.gz; jennifer sees it and copes, but the AA code doesn't
+ and can't really easily know so the potato AA dir is left with no
+ .orig.tar.gz copy. doh.
+
+ o orig.tar.gz in accepted not handled properly (?)
+
+ o amber doesn't include .orig.tar.gz but it should
+
+ o permissions (paranoia, group write, etc.) configurability and overhaul
+
+ o remember duplicate copyrights in lisaand skip them, per package
+
+ o <M>ove option for lisa byhand proecessing
+
+ o rene could do with overrides
+
+ o db_access.get_location_id should handle the lack of archive_id properly
+
+ o the whole versioncmp thing should be documented
+
+ o lisa doesn't do the right thing with -2 and -1 uploads, as you can
+ end up with the .orig.tar.gz not in the pool
+
+ o lisa exits if you check twice (aj)
+
+ o lisa doesn't trap signals from fernanda properly
+
+ o queued and/or perl on sparc stable sucks - reimplement it.
+
+ o aj's bin nmu changes
+
+ o Lisa:
+ * priority >> optional
+ * arch != {any,all}
+ * build-depends wrong (via andrea)
+ * suid
+ * conficlits
+ * notification/stats to admin daily
+ o trap fernanda exiting
+ o distinguish binary only versus others (neuro)
+
+ o cache changes parsed from ordering (careful tho: would be caching
+ .changes from world writable incoming, not holding)
+
+ o katie doesn't recognise binonlyNMUs correctly in terms of telling
+ who their source is; source-must-exist does, but the info is not
+ propogated down.
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 test sig checking stuff in test/
-
- o katie/jenna/rhona/whatever needs to clear out .changes
- files from p-u when removing stuff superseded by newer versions.
-
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 katie can loop on rejects if target's exist in REJECT...
- o (Depends) <aj> elmo: it should match \(\s*(<<|<|<=|=|>=|>|>>)\s*<VERSIONREGEXP>\) fwiw
+ o Validate Depends (et al.) [it should match \(\s*(<<|<|<=|=|>=|>|>>)\s*<VERSIONREGEXP>\)]
+
+ o Clean up DONE; archive to tar file every 2 weeks, update tar tvzf INDEX file.
+
+ 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 hooks or configurability for debian specific checks (e.g. check_urgency, auto-building support)
+
+ o morgue needs auto-cleaning (?)
+
+ o saffron: two modes, all included, seperate
+ o saffron: add non-US
+ o saffron: add ability to control components, architectures, archives, suites
+ o saffron: add key to expand header
+
+================================================================================
Less Urgent
-----------
- * Harder:
+ o Accept "," as a seperator in -a, -s etc. args
+
+ o change utils.copy to try rename() first
+
+ o [hard, long term] unchecked -> accepted should go into the db, not
+ a suite, but similar. this would allow katie to get even faster,
+ make madison more useful, decomplexify specialacceptedautobuild
+ and generally be more sane. may even be helpful to have e.g. new
+ in the DB, so that we avoid corner cases like the .orig.tar.gz
+ disappearing 'cos the package has been entirely removed but was
+ still on stayofexecution when it entered new.
+
+ o Logging [mostly done] (todo: rhona (hard), .. ?)
+
+ o jennifer: the tar extractor class doesn't need to be redone for each package
+
+ 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 (?)
+
+ o To incorporate from utils:
+ @ unreject
+
+ o auto-purge out-of-date stuff from non-free/contrib so that testing and stuff works
+ o doogie's binary -> source index
+ o jt's web stuff, matt's changelog stuff (overlap)
+
+ o [Hard] Need to merge non-non-US and non-US DBs.
+
+ 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 Improve andrea.
+ o Need to optimize all the queries by using EXAMINE and building some INDEXs.
+ [postgresql 7.2 will help here]
+ 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 reverse of source-must-exist; i.e. binary-for-source-must-not-exist
- o fernanda should check for conflicts and warn about them visavis priority [rmurray]
- o REJECT reminders in shania.
- o Clean up DONE; archive to tar file every 2 weeks, update tar tvzf INDEX file.
+ o charisma can't handle whitespace-only lines (for the moment, this is feature)
+
+ 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 (?)
+
+ o --help doesn't work without /etc/katie/katie.conf (or similar) at
+ least existing.
+
+ o rename andrea (clashes with existing andrea)...
+
+ * Harder:
+
+ o interrupting of stracing jennifer causes exceptions errors from apt_inst calls
+ o dependency checking (esp. stable) (partially done)
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 direport misreports things as section 'devel' (? we don't use direport)
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 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 due to global abuse)
+ 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 suite mapping and component mapping are parsed per changes file,
+ they should probably be stored in a dictionary created at startup.
+ o don't stat/md5sum files you have entries for in the DB, moron
+ boy (Katie.check_source_blah_blah)
+ o promote changes["changes"] to mandatory in katie.py(dump_vars)
+ after a month or so (or all .katie files contain in the queue
+ contain it).
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 Fix jennier to warn if run when not in incoming or p-u
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 drop rather dubious currval stuff (?)
+ o rationalize os.path.join() usage
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 (?)
+ o maybe drop -r/--regex in madison, make it the default and
+ implement -e/--exact (a la joey's "elmo")
+ o dsc files are not checked for existence/perms (only an issue if
+ they're in the .dsc, but not the .changes.. possible?)
* 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
