Main Inclusion Report for isoquery

Requirements

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

2. Rationale:

   • New build-dependency of localechooser, replacing previous inline Python implementation. Queries iso-codes XML files.

3. Security:

   • CVE entries: none

   • Secunia history: none

   • No binaries running as root or set-id; no daemons.
   • No network activity.
   • Processes structured XML data from the iso-codes package.
   • Brief source code review performed by Colin Watson; looks trivial.

4. Quality assurance:

   • Requires no configuration.

   • Debian bugs: none

   • Maintenance in Debian is vigorous

   • Upstream is the Debian iso-codes project; the upstream and Debian maintainers are the same.

   • There is a test suite, although it does not run at package build time.

5. Standards compliance:

   • Appears to comply with FHS and Debian Policy.

   • Straightforward debhelper packaging. No patch system.

6. Dependencies:

   • All in main.

7. Maintenance:

   • Fairly trivial and I don't expect much in the way of maintenance requirements.
   • Tobias Toedter is the upstream and Debian maintainer. I don't think he's involved with Ubuntu.
