Requirements

1. Availability: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/pysvn; available for all supported architectures.

3. Security:

   • No CVE entries.

   • No daemons.
   • pysvn doesnt open a port, but it does handle incoming and outgoing network data ?
   • It directly processes binary data.
   • No source code review performed.

4. Quality assurance:

   • The situations where it does not work out of the box is that when subversion is not setup properly.
   • No debconf questions asked.

   • Debian bugs

   • Maintenance in Debian is calm.

   • Upstream is frenetic/vigorous/calm/dead ?

   • Upstream bug tracker

   • No special hardware is required.
   • There is a testsuite but it is not enabled.

5. Standards compliance:

   • FHS and Debian Policy compliant.

   • Uses debhelper

6. Dependencies:

   • debhelper, python-all-dev, python-all-dbg, python-cxx-dev, libsvn, libapr1-dev

libneon27-gnutls-dev, subversion python-central

• All are in main except python-cxx-dev.

1. Maintenance:

   • python-svn is a relatively simple package that is well maintained in debian. The Ubuntu server team will maintain it for Ubuntu though.
