Package maintainers wishlist

Before submitting a wishlist package, read ForbiddenItems to understand what cannot be included.

Orphaned Packages

Refer to the list or unmaintained and orphaned packages . This would be a good place to bring back into Fedora repositories packages where the original maintainer has moved on.

General Fedora Packages WishList

As a current contributor, if you know of projects that would be appropriate in Fedora package collection but are unable to maintain yourself just drop them with a line here. This list can be used to give other contributors ideas on what to package next. Please be aware however that the number of high quality, well maintained packages that Fedora repository provides scales with the number of active contributors. It is just as important to encourage new contributors as it is to desire new packages. If you are not yet a contributor to the Fedora packaging process, please look over this list and see if there are any projects you would be willing to maintain for the Fedora community.

• http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-med/

Formal Methods WishList

The paper "High Assurance (for Security or Safety) and Free-Libre / Open Source Software (FLOSS)... with Lots on Formal Methods" by David A. Wheeler lists lots of tools that can help develop "high assurance" software, particularly "formal methods" tools. Wheeler is working with several people to package some of these for Fedora, but the more the merrier!

Some of these tools include:

• Prover9/Mace4
• Coq
• Why / Caduceus / Krakatoa
• Alloy (from MIT)
• ACL2
• PVS
• BLAST, at http://mtc.epfl.ch/software-tools/blast/ (don't use the obsolete version at Berkeley)
• HOL 4
• Isabelle
• HOL Lite
• Gandalf
• NuSMV
• DiVinE
• KeY
• fuzz (the type checker for Z, not the random-input fuzzer; this may need a new name)

Additional CAS tools, like Axiom, Yacas, and SAGE would be helpful too.

See the Wheeler paper (above) for project URLs, license info, what they do, etc.

OLPC Wishlist

Please notify devel@lists.laptop.org if you decide to assist OLPC by packaging any of the following software in Fedora!

Hard

• olpcrd - See our "building initramfsen" for hints on why this might be challenging.

Medium

• kernel
• rainbow - (This is a really a "help port Rainbow to F-9" since it's already maintained in Fedora CVS).

• Squeak and EToys
  • Here are some existing RPMs: http://math.ifi.uzh.ch/fedora/9/i386/SRPMS.gemi/squeak-image-3.8.6665-2.fc9.src.rpm http://math.ifi.uzh.ch/fedora/9/i386/SRPMS.gemi/squeak-sources-3.9-1.fc9.src.rpm http://math.ifi.uzh.ch/fedora/9/i386/SRPMS.gemi/squeak-vm-3.10-1.2.fc9.src.rpm
  • Licensing: Original license was not OSS, but Apple has re-released its portion under Apache 2.0. Is it releaseable now?
    • Unfortunately, there are still 100 contributors who didn't agree to a relicensing yet. Some have only initials listed, so they're hard to track down. --Kkofler 04:20, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
      • Citation? --Mstone 21:40, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
        • The very link already given above, resp. the link on that page! --Kkofler 00:59, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
    • According to the EToys COPYING file, EToys is available under Apache 2.0 and something that looks distinctly MIT-like. This package depends on the 'squeak-vm' package from http://squeakvm.org/unix/ (or http://dev.laptop.org/~bert/public_rpms/joyride/) which claims to be MIT-licensed. According to Bert Freudenberg, licensing questions should be directed to Kim Rose, of VPRI. The contact email is info [at] vpri [dot] org. --Mstone 21:40, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
  • --Gavin 19:11, 12 August 2008 (UTC) (in hopes that the licensing issues will be resolved) I've been working on creating Fedora and OLPC acceptable RPMs for Squeak and EToys. Please review what I've got so far. See [4] for .spec files and a Makefile to download the upstream source and package it up for you.

• • rnorwood August 12, 2008 - Discussion with Kim Rose ongoing. They are working hard to fix any remaining issues. Kim gets back from vacation on August 18, and we'll know more then.

• • Adding Squeak would allow packaging of Scratch (MIT license)!!

• olpc-licences
  • Where are the release tarballs for this?
    • SRPMs: http://xs-dev.laptop.org/~cscott/repos/joyride/
      • I'm not sure if this qualifies as a proper package for Fedora - one of the packaging rules is 'code, not content', and this is all content. Robin Norwood - 7/31/2008
• olpc-logos

Activities

OLPC Activities can now be packaged in Fedora for use with the Sugar desktop according to the packaging guidelines.

See http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities for a list of interesting activities. http://sugarlabs.org/go/ReleaseTeam/Roadmap#Glucose_Modules has the list of modules in the roadmap for the Sugar releases. http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities/Joyride has the list of activities included in Joyride/G1G1 builds which is probably also a good choice for what we want to be sure is packaged

Some of the activity sources tarballs (along with the sources for Sugar) can be found at http://dev.laptop.org/pub/sugar/sources/

How to add a package

If you're not already a Fedora maintainer, but interested in creating a package on this wish list, see PackageMaintainers/Join for the general process, and PackageMaintainers/CreatingPackageHowTo for the nuts-and-bolts of how to create a package. Packaging/Guidelines describes the guidelines Fedora packages must follow.

The special interest groups may provide additional guidelines and help for processing the packages posted on their wishlist.
