<> ||<>|| There's always a lot of work to do in Ubuntu's Universe and Multiverse. Here a quick list of suggestions, where you can help out: == General Tasks == * [[http://people.ubuntuwire.com/~lucas/merges.html|Merges/Syncs]] <> === Packaging New Software === Check out '''[[MOTU/TODO/NewSoftware]]'''. == Packaging related == === Patch Testing and Review === Check out the list of Ubuntu bugs in Launchpad and: 1. Make sure the bug is still relevant. 1. Assign it to you. 1. Transform the patch into a [[PackagingGuide/Recipes/Debdiff|debdiff]] if necessary. 1. Make sure it builds and fixes the bug. 1. Add it to the [[SponsorshipProcess|sponsoring queue]] or upload it yourself. === Unmet Dependencies === Help to fix packages that are not installable. A list can be found [[http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/debcheck/debcheck.py?list=relationship%2dDepends&arch=ANY|on debcheck]] updated 6-hourly. * Component-specific unmetdeps lists are also available: [[http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/debcheck/debcheck.py?list=universe-only-relationship%2dDepends&arch=ANY|universe]] [[http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/debcheck/debcheck.py?list=multiverse-only-relationship%2dDepends&arch=ANY|multiverse]] * Some of them are main packages, please sort them out. If you want to take care of them... even better. :) * Best to use a clean `pbuilder` environment if possible. See: [[PbuilderHowto]]. * `apt-get source ` and `debuild or `dpkg-buildpackage` * Many of the packages just need a fresh rebuild. === Other Packaging tasks === * Incorporate Debian RC fixes: http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/bugs/rcbugs/ * Address FTBFS issues: http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/ftbfs * Review outstanding lintian issues: http://lintian.ubuntuwire.org/ * Lists of packages needing updates due to depends on obsolete package names (e.g., library transitions): http://people.ubuntu.com/~ubuntu-archive/NBS/ * Check out other QA activities: http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/ * Piuparts Logs: http://people.ubuntu.com/~liw/piuparts/ ([[https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2007-December/024893.html|instructions]]) * Look for potential security fixes: * http://security-tracker.debian.net/ * https://bugs.launchpad.net/~motu-swat * Code Needed: * Help develop GUI tool for monitor/resolution configuration: https://launchpad.net/~displayconfig-gtk * Help develop failsafe X mode: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/bullet-proof-x * Port software to use Ubuntu information, rather than Debian: [[MOTU/PackagesToPort]] <> == Universe / Multiverse Bugs == Check out '''[[MOTU/TODO/Bugs]]'''. ---- Go back to '''[[MOTU]]'''.<
