[Bug 409803] [NEW] [MIR] Please promote liblauncher and clutk

[Steve Kowalik]

Public bug reported:

MIR for liblauncher:

1. Availability: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/libl/liblauncher; available for all supported architectures, except powerpc, ia64, and armel. The last two will build, ppc is busted.
2. Rationale: 
   * Build dependency of the new netbook-launcher
3. Security:
   * No CVE entries: ...
   * No Secunia history: ...
   * Any binaries running as root or suid/sgid ? Any daemons ? No binaries or daemons.
   * No network activity.
   * Does it directly (not through a library) process binary (video, audio, etc) or structured (PDF, etc) data ?
   * No source code review.
4. Quality assurance:
   * In what situations does the package not work out of the box without configuration ?
   * No debconfage.
   * Package is not in Debian.
   * Upstream is vigorous.
   * Upstream bug tracker: http://bugs.launchpad.net/liblauncher/
   * Hardware: No direct hardware access.
   * Test suite exists, but is not running during build due to xvfb madness.
5. UI standards:
   * User-visible strings are internationalized using standard gettext system ? No.
   * Package with translatable strings builds a PO template during package build ? No.
   * End-user applications ship a desktop file ?  No.
     - It's a library, no user-visible strings.
6. Standards compliance:
   * Complies with the FHS and Debian Policy.
   * Bog standard debhelper v7, no patch system or oddities.
7. Dependencies:
   * All Build-Depends and Depends are 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.) Not much at all.
   * Who is responsible for monitoring the quality of this package and fixing its bugs ? Are they Ubuntu or Debian developers ? The mobile team.
   * Who is the package bug contact in Ubuntu? (Needs one if its a nontrivial package which does not fully maintain itself through Debian) The DX team.
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 ? Upstream call it liblauncher, and have
     always called it that.
10. Internationalization:
    * Are graphical applications translatable? Do they support gettext? No, it isn't a graphical app.

** Affects: liblauncher (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
