Hi,
I'm not a Debian developer, just a Debian user, and I want to say that I
was happy to see XFCE being the default DE. Just because it's small,
classic and neutral DE - which GNOME 3 definitely isn't. I think XFCE is
a better default... because I think it's not that uncommon for people to
Can you qualify that statement? Especially the neutral part, it is
not
obvious to me how a DE can be, or not be neutral.
By neutral I've meant a DE without dubious solutions discussed in
gnome3 flame wars all over the web. I don't really think we should also
discuss it here, just because we

I could make a dummy package that conflicts with systemd, but I'm
sure there's a better way.
I think you can just put
Package: systemd
Pin:
- Debian has sent patches upstream
- Mageia is *much* smaller distribution, that packager has attended
*various* systemd hackfests
- Mageia package maintainer sent various patches upstream
- Patches are *not* accepted based on how many people you represent or
which company you work for (e.g.

Our users shouldn't care what init system we use. It's an
implementation -- and purely technical -- detail of the OS.
Sorry to interfere with your discussion, but it really sounds like some
kind of proprietary software idea :)
I'm sure a big percent of GNU/Linux (and especially Debian

The same goes
Because I want logs to be plaintext in my system, not binary.
Install syslog. Or maybe Debian will use both journal and syslog.
I dislike the idea of binary logs so much that I want to really and
totally disable journal.
And I don't see why a binary log format is needed to implement the

Is a Debian security update expected to come out for it?
Yes. Nginx team has already submitted updated package to security team.
Thanks for the information! I've actually found the bug stating this:

And what's the Debian process for
oh ;) thanks for your checking!
1 more note: scons doc states that if you want to install package in a
sandbox for packaging, you should better supply real PREFIX=/usr, and
then supply --install-sandbox=./debian/tmp option to 'scons
install'. Don't know if it actually affects something
Also I did serf update as Bug#716793, please

I've actually already seen it... But it was after I've built it by
myself... :)
It seems your package has cleaner debian/rules so I would
Yes, someone needs to review it, but before that the package tests
need to be fixed so they a) run and b) pass, reliably and repeatably.
After that, either get the package maintainers to discuss the new
version, or find someone to take over the package if they no longer
want to or can maintain
