The plugins are basically .so files, so if you want to play doom, you load the jdoom plugin, you want hexen, you load the jhexen plugin. That's true. The heretic/hexen licence terms are so strict as to make even this dodgy, but if the code was excluded from Debian, it wouldn't be Debian's problem. I expect this confusion would have been avoided if the upstream author didn't classify the entirety of the code as GPL in sourceforge.net. True. I have raised this with upstream in the past and they are aware of the issue. We would prefer to include it with full functionality, but with the current codebase it is impossible. Upstream has stated that with the current code it would be more trouble then it is worth to redo the hexen plugin without the raven code, especially as the current codebase is more of a prototype to them of what they want their version 2 engine to be. I'm sure though, that if someone had patches they would be happy to include it. The problem with legacy and the other ports mentioned is that this logic wasn't separated so that they could function without the raven code. Yes I know :( I've tried to persuade the upstream maintainers but it has unfortunately been to no avail. The legacy maintainers are some of the most polite, however: I received some pretty angry mail from some of the others. Sadly that is the case, part of the reason I ended up doing Deng, was that upstream was much more approachable about these sorts of things. The biggest problem is that many new wads (game levels) support hexen features in a doom wad (I believe that they call this zdoom format). By supporting zdoom format and not using a plugin they then fail the DFSG test with regards to the raven code. I only know of Zdoom that uses this different WAD structure (maybe vavoom does too, not too familiar with that port). However, zdoom implemented that *before* the heretic/hexen source code release. Despite this, I think that there is no interest in relicencing under the GPL in the zdoom camp. Really, Zdoom did that before the hexen release ? As I understand it, I thought Zdoom format was basically hexen in a doom container. Deng doesn't even support Boom format (an extension to the GPL Doom wad format) that was the cause for a fork some time ago. Yup Risen3D - which is closed source :-( I understand that there is work on putting boom support into Jdoom now - about time! (as an upstream author of freedoom, I've had to field many questions about jdoom and boom over the years) Yeah, Skyjake has given DaniJ CVS access, and now DaniJ is working on some Boom stuff. I'm looking forward to the freedoom support myself, as it's something I'd like to play. Every time they release something, I happily break it in new and exiting ways (I already broke it on amd64, I just wish I could put it through all of Debian's arches to see what it breaks on) -- GPG/PGP signed mail preferred.

I think I've found the linking bug. Details later.
The link problem is caused by code like this:
template int I
struct Foo
{
virtual ~Foo();
};
template struct Foo5;
template int I
FooI::~Foo()
{
}
int
main()
{
return 0;
}
This worked with GCC 3.4, but doesn't with 4.0. I pretty much doubt
that this code was legal. The fix is straightforward: Remove the
explicit template instantiation, and make sure that the template
implementation is visible each time the template is instantiated
implicitly.
I'll prepare a patch.

Does libwmf0.2-7 has to depend on gsfonts ? I think that dependency should be changed to Recommends, because there are perfectly fine uses of libwmf0.2-7 where gsfonts are not needed at all. For example the wv package uses this library, and for example converting a MS Word doc file to a HTML file with: wvHtml file.doc file.html doesn't have any use of gsfonts. Or am I wrong?

That does seem to match reality: http://bugs.debian.org/316089 Yes, this is a bug in version tracking: it's a canonicalisation problem between various internal representations of versions in debbugs, reported as bug #319037. Fortunately I don't think it's *too* hard to solve ... This should now be fixed, and fortunately only a few bugs were bitten by this. I've repaired them. There may still be a few broken corner cases in the case of packages that have used dpkg-gencontrol's -v switch to produce binary packages with a different version from their source package (which is where most of the really hairy corner cases in version tracking show up). Please report these if you run across them. Cheers, -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Bug#319779: ITP: pycairo -- python language bindings for the Cairo vector graphics library

Hi Petter, Petter Reinholdtsen [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Please help the install team and others get a better view on the use of packages in Debian. To do this, install the popularity-contest package and say yes to participate. Perhaps more will participate if you zip the report, to reduce traffic. It's requested in bug 149425 for years. At least for modem users popcon traffic is significant. And yes, I have only a low bandwidth modem line and run popcon, but others don't do so.

Re: ftp-master.d.o, db.d.o down due to relocation
* James Troup: As previously mentioned[1], newraff and newsamosa have lost their existing hosting and are being relocated. Is newsamosa the primary NS for debian.org, as the SOA record suggests? In this case, the debian.org zone could vanish from the secondaries (and thus from the entire net) around July 28th, maybe sooner, unless some primary NS is established again. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: does libwmf0.2-7 have to depend on gsfonts ?
On Sunday 24 July 2005 11:14 am, Miernik wrote: Does libwmf0.2-7 has to depend on gsfonts ? I think that dependency should be changed to Recommends, because there are perfectly fine uses of libwmf0.2-7 where gsfonts are not needed at all. For example the wv package uses this library, and for example converting a MS Word doc file to a HTML file with: wvHtml file.doc file.html doesn't have any use of gsfonts. Or am I wrong? Similarly, X is not useful in that also, so dependencies: xlibs libice6 libsm6 libx11-6 should also perhaps be changed to Recommends.

As in once you confirmed one subscription the next one doesn't ask

Sounds good.
It should always ask for confirmation unless someone has specifically
made the decision that they don't want to have to opt-in.
