(I do indeed have btrfs-tools on hold, but I don't see why that would prevent installing bind9.) Maybe there's a better way to get to that URL (or download the .deb without first checking the URL). Maybe it could use dget from devscripts? That seems to work reliable, but would add a quite heavy-weight dependency. (For now I considered debian-goodies and devscripts to be of the same level, one for production machines and one for development machines. This would pull in the development stuff on production machines. Meh.) -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (900, 'testing'), (899, 'testing-proposed-updates'), (600, 'stable'), (500, 'proposed-updates'), (200, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.10-rc7-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages debian-goodies depends on: ii curl 7.31.0-2 ii dctrl-tools [grep-dctrl] 2.23 ii dialog 1.2-20130523-1 ii perl 5.14.2-21 ii python 2.7.5-2 ii whiptail 0.52.15-2 Versions of packages debian-goodies recommends: ii lsof 4.86+dfsg-1 Versions of packages debian-goodies suggests: ii popularity-contest 1.58 ii xdg-utils 1.1.0~rc1+git20111210-7 ii zenity 3.8.0-1 -- no debconf information

[ Axel Beckert ] * [debget] - Fix typo in error message (Closes: #733466) * [dgrep] - Fix old name "dpkg-grep" in error message. - Consistently prefix error messages with program name. - Properly handle more than one package or glob as parameter as promised by the man page. (dglob can only handle one glob parameter per call.) * [checkrestart.1] - Fix multiple rendering and consistency issues - Refer to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2 instead of …/GPL * [dhomepage.1] - Minor formatting improvements * [*.pod] - Fix groff-ism - Refer to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2 instead of …/GPL - Mark references to files or other man pages as such - Use correct manual sections for apt-get and aptitude (8 vs 1) * Declare compliance with Debian Policy 3.9.6 (no further changes needed) * Update Vcs-Browser to use https and the cgit web frontend. * Convert debian/copyright to machine-readable DEP5 format. - Add so far not explicitly listed files to debian/copyright. - Add lintian override for copyright-refers-to-symlink-license as the author of debmany didn't specify a version and instead refers to the generic online version which always points to the newest version as Debian's symlink does. - Update years in debian/copyright. . [ Javier Fernández-Sanguino ] * [checkrestart]: - Remove util-linux from the blacklist to have it report on getty processes that need to be restarted. (Closes: #688808) - Only complain and exit with error if not running as root when the script is going to be run. Do not complain if it is called with -h or -v. - Add preliminary support for systemd in checkrestart. Now, if the system is using systemd and there are service files for a package the admin is pointed to 'systemctl' (and systemd itself is ignored by checkrestart). Compatibility with packages only providing init.d files (or not using systemd) is still maintained. - Remove the packages that are ignored instead of keeping them in the list of packages to be processed (and ignore them later) - Tighten up the regular expression to avoid false positives with files that contain 'deleted' as part of their name. Patch provided by Simon Ruderich (Closes: #758711) - Apply patch provided by Felix C. Stegerman that prevents Python errors under some use scenarios (Closes: 731386) - Add other command interpreters: ruby (common) and tclsh (infrequent) to make it look for the real program - Add patch provided by Ian Bissett that implements an alternative mechanism to check for deleted files using /proc instead of lsof. This seems to be more efficient on systems with a large number of files. This mechanism is used when lsof is not available or when the user explicitly asks it not to be used. It will be probably enabled by default in future releases (Closes: #775472) - Checkrestart now does not depend on lsof and will run an alternative mechanism if not installed. Users can prevent it from running it (using -n) if they so choose (Closes: #589103, #735278, #750025) - Skip /var/lib/postgresql from the processed files (Closes: #767335, #751729) - Skip [aio] files generated in MySQL servers and with multipath-tools (Closes: #748055, LP: #1313705) - Skip library files from VDR as it contains deleted FIFO files (Closes: #717210) - Add workaround to have checkrestart work in OpenVZ environments with patch provided by Ralf Jung (Closes: #747003) * [debmany] - Fix typo (use -> usr) in manpage (Closes: #737512) - Indicate that /tmp (or /var/tmp) are used for the temporary files, not /dev/shm anymore since #679457 was fixed (Closes: #737513) - Exit proper error message when apt-get is failing for some reason instead of claiming that the package does not exist (Closes: #714964) * [dpigs] - Add -H option to the manual page, thanks to 'aafuentes' for the patch (Closes: #724248) * [dglob, dglob.pod] - Add a new '-n' option to make it possible to search for packages that are available but not installed, thanks to A. Costa (Closes: #594959) . * Change license of manual pages written by author to GPL-2 Checksums-Sha1: 3f7a15b95959a6a364d693b5f22eab7f23a1e003 1614 debian-goodies_0.64.dsc 6433b3daa66d296e8b93d8254eee036c6b43b289 56740 debian-goodies_0.64.tar.xz 6929aa83a5bfc43aba72c1cee29e61eac7716d16 69346 debian-goodies_0.64_all.deb Checksums-Sha256: d700c49447fe811f204aa5c2038d5fbf578699663ff2ab75fb2bc6d08d51de5c 1614 debian-goodies_0.64.dsc 731a6da72f35f48018c36836efcdcaa2c5055a24a13d785d2349058ddd3ec992 56740 debian-goodies_0.64.tar.xz 184756ef9fd1c22aa12bd27a2a08cbaf30ce07514851130be7f11d078384fb6b 69346 debian-goodies_0.64_all.deb Files: 8846f9db0de60b0d260a9b809b3247a3 1614 utils optional debian-goodies_0.64.dsc 4a1f591732f8872182df6dac8b7cc1b9 56740 utils optional debian-goodies_0.64.tar.xz 73088f2b70c6e317fcd647c72b0183a7 69346 utils optional debian-goodies_0.64_all.deb -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIVAwUBVMIuMjg8os7RvajdAQj8qxAAzFvu8kN8C0tUhbfRZYKcRUVt3el1nGL7 naxKkj5+T4TIIC5ehVnzPY5EOzmTi54JH71swTRP+7vzfrDueK7tewUV2SScnCzv MFF7TdV1pUxy3WIj8+LwHzZDqerCG8h5g/4wT1DDNfLLEaBs00H4eYpbIsgR0ZBI k4K3tapm003MQ/1YCovseQHwXCoHmzKUFxexRAtq6hWG8d5LF6FQrywCohukS5lr tVf08+6Yz6RvwMRkehMNN5ZZnnhewPDgUEXAK+cGGPAGc3QUm/ydGN6MbPr0SyXD ngb9umgmnEdUTl7SA1jmSJhWO7AZNhOQIVQRrxx5dOjtGElGs3/HaSZpmLJL1HaJ ea2HodCkzZCFvygti4zszsPkf0/+3OWMi2dxKQOkbjDKqxzuYnLErUIMYpC8qMhf UKJPn0mfdLsMPBnVJ1BASPcFWXrtBr9UqBA4Glqgxhu3eQatxOvUolEi0sDBMzeY ynGEBsCF4GEDNCdmJWSijvsOljvEpMTComXuvEylUOswDepsC58F9x7M+j4ZdGRs tSLirkeGhw9XYMJ0fLarX4TJVNg6Vh9AR+Jtw+/MfzxwVNz1+j9zhhW8kuXhaC29 Qu3M+J8miox2XZgJ0lREIFAow27EyAvTUrnjg4CS4mEPh1DyXbFUkDQ/7JI4L9tX VFcEK9kF7Is= =eCCV -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
