[Bug 409848] [NEW] [MIR] gnome-bluetooth

[Alexander Sack]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-bluetooth

1. Availability: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gnome-
bluetooth; available for all supported architectures or some subset ?
all arches.

2. Rationale:
    * gnome default component
    * default bluetooth frontend for karmic

3. Security:
     * No open CVE/secunia issues reported/known
     * Any binaries running as root or suid/sgid ? Any daemons ? not running as root; no daemon
     * Network activity: does it open any port? Does it handle incoming network data? not opening a port and doesnt directly parse bluetooth data streams
     * Does it directly (not through a library) process binary (video, audio, etc) or structured (PDF, etc) data ?
          * Any source code review performed ? (The approver will do a quick and shallow check.) 

4. Quality assurance:
     * In what situations does the package not work out of the box without configuration ?
     * Does the package ask any debconf questions higher than priority 'medium' ? no debconf.
     * Debian bugs: (mention any that are particularly relevant, and any showstoppers)
        * no showstoppers
      * Maintenance in Debian is frenetic/vigorous/calm/dead ? packaged in ubuntu until this obexd gets through NEW in debian.
      * Upstream is vigorous
      * Hardware: Does this package deal with hardware and if so how exotic is it ? does not directly deal with hardware
      * Is there a test suite in the upstream source or packaging ? Is it enabled to run in the build? no testsuite

5. UI standards:
    * User-visible strings are internationalized using standard gettext system ? yes.
    * Package with translatable strings builds a PO template during package build ?
    * End-user applications ship a desktop file ? yes (application & autostart)

6.  Standards compliance:
    * FHS, Debian Policy compliance ? yes
    * Packaging system (debhelper/cdbs/dbs) ? Patch system ? Any packaging oddities ? simple patchsystem (but no patches atm); no addities

7. Dependencies:
    * Are these all in main ? no. obex-client (obexd sources) need promotion

8. Maintenance:
     * How much maintenance is this package likely to need ? no dedicated developer needed. asac and desktop team will keep this on the radar though.
     * Who is responsible for monitoring the quality of this package and fixing its bugs ? Are they Ubuntu or Debian developers ? asac (DD + ubuntu core dev), crevette, desktop team
     * Who is the package bug contact in Ubuntu? (Needs one if its a nontrivial package which does not fully maintain itself through Debian) 

9. Background information:
     * What do upstream call this software ? Has it had different names in the past ? gnome.org bluez-gnome fork.

10. Internationalization:
     * Are graphical applications translatable? Do they support gettext? yes. gettext translatable.
