Main Inclusion Report for libffado

Requirements

  1. Availability: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/libf/libffado/; available for i386, amd64 and ppc architectures.

  2. Rationale:

    • provides support of FireWire based audio devices including sound cards, storage devices, cameras and camcorders.

  3. Security:

    • CVE entries: none

    • Secunia history: none

    • Any binaries running as root or suid/sgid ? Any daemons ?

      • do not know

      • do not know

    • Network activity: does it open any port ? Does it handle incoming network data ?
      • no
      • no
    • Does it directly (not through a library) process binary (video, audio, etc) or structured (PDF, etc) data ?
      • no

  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' ?

    • Debian bugs: (mention any that are particularly relevant, and any showstoppers)

    • Maintenance in Debian is frenetic/vigorous/calm/dead ?

    • Upstream is frenetic/vigorous/calm/dead ?

    • Upstream bug tracker: (mention any particularly relevant or critical)

    • Hardware: Does this package deal with hardware and if so how exotic is it ?
    • Is there a test suite in the upstream source or packaging ? Is it enabled to run in the build ?

  5. UI standards:

    • User-visible strings are internationalized using standard gettext system ?
    • Package with translatable strings builds a PO template during package build ?
    • End-user applications ship a desktop file ?

  6. Standards compliance:

    • FHS, Debian Policy compliance ?

    • Packaging system (debhelper/cdbs/dbs) ? Patch system ? Any packaging oddities ?

  7. Dependencies:

    • ...
    • Are these all in main ?

  8. Maintenance:

    • How much maintenance is this package likely to need ? (Simple packages may largely take care of themselves; complex packages will need dedicated developers paying attention to them.)
    • Who is responsible for monitoring the quality of this package and fixing its bugs ? Are they Ubuntu or Debian developers ?
    • 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:

    • The general purpose and context of the package should be clear from the package's debian/control file. If it isn't then please explain.
    • What do upstream call this software ? Has it had different names in the past ?

  10. Internationalization:

    • Are graphical applications translatable? Do they support gettext?
