I will make sure that the Oxford guide is running current Openguides
by July.
I should probably follow up on this. libtemplate-perl is still out of
date in Debian and this fact, combined with the fact that there isn't
going to be an OpenGuides presence at Oxford Geek Night next month
after all means I haven't done this yet. But it's still on my radar.
libtemplate-perl is up to date, but the next stumbling block is that
I have not been able to upload libgeo-coordinates-osgb-perl to Debian,
since it has not been found to meet the Debian Free Software Guidelines.
As a result I plan to upload it to non-free instead (at least until
someone can tell me that it should go in main) but this means that
Openguides will need tweaking to suit:
http://dev.openguides.org/ticket/307
which i have responded to.
If the project thinks this change shouldn't be
made in OpenGuides
it could be maintained as a patch in the Debian package, although
regardless of legal complexities it's probably worth streamlining
the installation a bit to avoid installing modules that may not be
used.
I think its a change we shouldnt make in the CPAN version. The code
deals with it not being there. A debian patch can remove the hard
dep on it.
the test will also probably need the skips put back in place or
debian can rmeove those test files entirely.
In fact, this *shouldn't* be an issue in that the OS have agreed
to terms which I believe will be DFSG-free. The changes haven't
quite been accepted by the Debian ftp-masters, but I'm hoping that's
just a matter of time:
http://ftp-master.debian.org/new/libgeo-coordinates-osgb-perl_2.04-2.html
As far as deploying 0.70 on
oxford.openguides.org; I'll be doing this
in about a week after I've run a version of 0.65 with backported
Leaflet changes (see [1] for why) for some more testing. The 0.70 package
has just been uploaded to Debian experimental.
Cheers,
Dominic.
