Main Inclusion Report for sourcepackage

Requirements

  1. Availability: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/c/compiz-bcop

  2. Rationale:

    • Build dependency of compiz-compcomm-plugins-main
  3. Security:

    • no knowns CVEs
    • No binaries running as root or suid/sgid. No daemons.
    • Network activity: no open port ? No handling of incoming network data ?
    • No source code review was performed but the code is 1500 lines of XSLT plus some shell script around it
  4. Quality assurance:

    • Package works out of the box, does not reqiure debconf or configuration
    • Debian does not have the package yet
    • Upstream is alive and kicking

    • Upstream bug tracker: Does not have any relevant bugs

  5. Standards compliance:

    • Meets FHS and Debian Policy.

    • Packaging system cdbs without patch system. Straightforward packaging.
  6. Dependencies:

    • xsltproc (main)
  7. Background information:

    • The only reason we need this package is that it is required to build compiz-compcomm-plugins-main.
    • Upstream calls this software "bcop" but because the software is only useful in the context of compiz we called the binary and source package "compiz-bcop".
