So this is a rather short presentation

0:42:28.441,0:42:31.281
on 7 slides. It was originally planned

0:42:31.281,0:42:36.480
for a lightning talk, but i managed to

0:42:36.480,0:42:49.361
hand in my proposal too late, so....

0:42:49.361,0:42:53.221
Ok, so i am presenting today:

0:42:53.221,0:42:54.562
DUCK, the Debian URL checker.

0:42:54.562,0:43:02.901
The reason why i made this is exactly this:

0:43:02.901,0:43:09.382
You see a debcheckout here, with bugs

0:43:09.382,0:43:13.221
showing that it basically does not work.

0:43:13.221,0:43:16.901
This was in a time where i tried to increase

0:43:16.901,0:43:20.321
my involvement into Debian, and i felt like:

0:43:20.321,0:43:25.801
This should be fixed somehow.

0:43:25.801,0:43:29.640
In the debian/control file are several URLs defined

0:43:29.640,0:43:31.781
e.g. ths Vcs-Git: URL, or the Vcs-Browser: URL,

0:43:31.781,0:43:36.101
which in this case shows me:

0:43:36.101,0:43:38.701
"No repository found". Probabyl you have already

0:43:38.701,0:43:41.181
seen such a screen.

0:43:41.181,0:43:43.761
So the basic idea behind DUCK is:

0:43:43.761,0:43:46.460
I check those links and entries in the control-file

0:43:46.460,0:43:49.581
on a daily basis. Currently we have about ~2300

0:43:49.581,0:43:51.881
packages which have broken URLs. These are eiter

0:43:51.881,0:43:56.641
homepages, or problems with the email addresses

0:43:56.641,0:44:00.101
of the maintainers or some other problems with

0:44:00.101,0:44:03.220
URLs. There is also a package availabe which you

0:44:03.220,0:44:08.281
can run locally and also show you informations about problems with links.

0:44:08.281,0:44:11.941
I also made a challenge. So if you fix one of

0:44:11.941,0:44:14.000
your packages until the end of DebConf 15

0:44:14.000,0:44:16.541
you get one of those awsome lighters. I know this is

0:44:16.541,0:44:19.401
a very short time announcement , but i have still a

0:44:19.401,0:44:22.221
bag of lighters here. And if your really promise me

0:44:22.221,0:44:23.440
hard to fix your stuff you can take one out.

0:44:23.440,0:44:25.241
Thank you!
